My mom always like to dress nicely but now she needs outfits that are easy to wear, comfortable, and are a coordinated set. Is there a catalog out there? Online store? I'm having a hard time finding what she needs.

Check out Alfred Dunner. My mom loves them. Available at Macy's and possibly Penneys. Pull on sweaters and fleece, jackets, elastic waist band pants.

When I started buying MIL clothes, I bought at least two tops to match with a pant. One top usually was solid and the other a pattern I knew she would like. But the colors all went together and she got multiple outfits. I also found a lot for her in the Lands End catalog especially tops and cardigans.

Any good stretch stuff works, but HA! measure her because most women lie about their age, their size and their hair color.

My MIL had ALL her outfits preselected, pants/shirt/jewelry all on the same hook. Four closets filled. We counted sixteen pairs of beige pants alone. Who the heck owns sixteen of one color anything? LOL

We also always found cute coordinating outfits for Grandma at Penney's and Macy's. It was usually more elastic waist pants with an embroidered top of same fabric rather than suits though.

Buck & Buck is a website that has easy to put on clothing for seniors. I haven't purchased from them yet but might order a sweat suit for Grandpa. They do have a section for matching sets, including some velour ones that might be comfy.

What about consignment shops, Goodwill or the Salvation Army? You can find cute things there without breaking the bank.

I'm with Gladimere, Alfred Dunner has terrific coordinated outfits. Slacks with elastic bands and pockets, skirts, and any number of styles of tops that coordinate with the bottoms. I am the queen of Alfred Dunner shopping. For my Mom, MIL, husband's aunt, etc. When My Mom (now gone) moved to Assisted Living, the aides used to love to help her get dressed as they loved all of her Alfred Dunner outfits. And they wash up beautifully. They are available at Macy's in regular/petites/womans; slacks come in 3 lengths, JC Penney and online. When my Mom was in independent living but had slowed down and shopping was too challenging, I would go to the store and bring her a dozen outfits. We'd sort out what she didn't like and then look at the remainder. BTW they have their own website so you can see what they have there as well.

I was thinking that if Hillary had won, pantsuits would be BIG now. I don't recall seeing many the other day when I went shopping. The only ones I can remember are the jackets, pants, and skirts that hang together on a rack so you can build your own suit. The colors for this winter here are black and gray this year. I had a hard time finding colorful.

There is one catalog I use for clothing for both my Mom and for myself. It's called "National" the website is ShopNational. Reasonably priced, and delivery is fairly quick. Very soft cotton tops that wash and dry very well. Just mix and match.
