the way I cackled at the RJ headline - you are my people, erika!

(also, last year I got a little obsessed with nightgowns and realized that the brand "powell craft" seems to be the maker behind the nightgowns of salter house, shop goose, and bliss & mischief (and probably others I haven't seen before), and it seems like you can buy direct from powell craft for $20-$30 cheaper than elsewhere. just in case that info is of use to any LL people ;))

Love this! And on the second hand side of things, Eileen West nightgowns are all over the second hand sites, you might have to search a couple of times to find exactly what you want in the right size but since they’re not fitted in anyway you have more leeway in sizing!

"Haunt the dreams of your neighbors who are just going to have to deal with your visible panty line." Never knew this was a personal goal of mine, but it is! Love all these picks.

I find that "boring" brands like Lands End and LL Bean have some sleeper hits at good prices and quality!

Having bought one of the Vermont country store white tanks at a post office/convenience store/bakery(?) near Cooperstown NY like 6 years ago - can confirm they are excellent and hold up

the Bronson Mfg stuff is super cute. just be aware that is shipping directly from China and therefore by passing all import rules, tariffs and taxes etc. Maybe your ok with that, maybe something you want to think about. and is you feel uncomfortable with Shien, is this any different?
