Although I had thought about not writing any more posts before New Year, just this morning, while skiing, I received the following messages from two readers:
Roby writes me: “Hi Cristina, I read your post about your don’t-do list to make life easier, brilliant! But I have real gaps in my wardrobe, believe me! And I decided to make up for them… Could you give me some tips on some basic or long lasting garments to buy now, at the January sales? I really like your shopping list with the reports, can you make more please?“
Soon after, Alexa: “Hi Cristina, I’d really like to be more Zen, especially after reading your last year-end posts, but the truth is that I’ve got my credit card pawing, some Christmas money available and I’d like to take a little something, but something that will give me satisfaction for a long time! Do you have any advice for me? I’m a women your age (53), thank you!“
So I thought to suggest you some basic garments to buy now at the 2020 January sales, adaptable to different styles, in different categories, since I don’t know what Roby and Alexa exactly need for their wardrobes.
To do this, I chose to start from Intrend – Diffusione Tessile, a site very well known to Italian chic women, where you can find unbranded garments of the various brands of the Max Mara group at great prices.
The added value is the undoubted great quality/price ratio. In a few words, high quality materials and finishes combined with really low prices – especially now, with the 2020 January sales going on. Here then, directly from my wishlist, my personal Hit Parade of garments to buy now.
