Review of C&C and Paper

Today I wore a few of my new items. From top to bottom:

red/white striped tank under
black scoop tee
sage green pants
black all stars

What is this thing called quality in clothing? I'm observing and taking notes. So I've noticed that my Old Navy tee has not worn very well. The colors are already faded, and not in a cool way.

The C&C tank seems to resist fading and getting misshapen. The Paper Denim pants fit a little better around the bottom. These are just slight adjustments, but they make a difference. In looking at the forum thread "What are you wearing today?", I've realized that proper fit elevates even the plainest ensemble. I can't otherwise explain how some people, in just a top and pants, can look so put together.
