The topic is about finding stylish and comfortable clothing options for women with a high-placement ostomy bag, which sits a little above the belly button. After two months of recovery, the poster explored various clothing brands and styles that accommodate an ostomy bag while still looking professional and stylish for returning to school. Here are some of her recommendations:

1. ATHLETA offers a range of sizes from 0 to 24, with lightweight, wrinkle-resistant fabrics and high waistbands. Some options include:
- Cosmic Skirt
- Brooklyn Ankle Pant
- Avenue Wide-Legged Crop Pant

2. LEVI’S maternity line was suggested by her ostomy nurse, particularly the Signature Maternity Jeans, which provide a comfortable fit.

3. DOVETAIL WORKWEAR, based in Portland, offers women’s workwear with a soft high-rise waistband. The Christa DIY Pant is a recommended option.

4. TARGET is a good choice for casual wear, such as the JoyLab Women’s Mid-Rise French Terry Acid Wash Jogger Pants, perfect for relaxed days.

5. For undergarments:
- High-waisted smoothing briefs are available on Amazon.
- Handmade ostomy-friendly underwear can be ordered from Studio Ten Fifteen via Instagram.
- Ostomy Secrets is mentioned but not purchased from due to price considerations.

Some additional advice and insights include:

- Use regular pantyhose or tights by cutting off the legs and wearing the waistband portion over your midsection to help flatten and secure the pouch. Opt for non-control-top styles or boxer-style panties for comfort and to reduce bag noise.
- Maternity clothing, especially jeans and other bottoms, often provides the higher, stretchier waist needed to accommodate and support an ostomy appliance.
- High-waisted underwear offers added support under skirts and dresses and helps limit pouch movement. Some people pair this with the cut-off-tights method for warm-weather wear.
