Let’s get dressed! But let’s get dressed thoughtfully, with your personal style top of mind. The Well Dressed Life differs from other fashion sites because we work alongside you. Our daily posts take you on a journey. We start each week with What to Buy at, highlighting a popular retailer and sharing our top picks based on everything we know about our community. Then, we take a top seller and style it in three ways in How to Wear it, using previously featured reader-favorite items so you can see true mix-and-match wardrobe options.
And throughout the week, we share tips, real-life outfit inspiration, and our popular “Outfit Formula” series every Thursday.
