Oversized Sweater

Oversized Sweater & Shopbop Sale Picks

This is pretty much going to be my uniform once the temps drop.  An oversized sweater, leather leggings, embellished sneakers, larger than life sunnies and a catch-all bag.  DONE.

I love this sweater more in person than I did online and that’s saying something because I was immediately obsessed.  The texture and size makes it perfectly chic.  I am ordering a second color–and I’m thinking I am going for the navy.  I don’t have many navy options in my closet and I love the idea of pairing it with black for a Winter look. The best part?  It is not itchy at all!!! [wearing a small]

&& I cannot leave you all hanging on the maj sale that is going on–the Shopbop has started!  Shopbop houses one of the best mix of brands and they rarely do site-wide sales so when they do it makes for a great time to do a little shopping and grab something for the new season.  Think about buying pieces that will be staples.. straight leg jeans, lux sweaters, faux fur jackets, trendy sneakers, moto jackets.  Key items that you can build outfits around time and time again.  Here are my picks for you all to browse and get inspiration from:

Ok, let me know what you all buy!  && haaaaaappy Friday Eve!!

There are some items I buy that I love but I know I wont get that much wear out of.  Some things just require an occasion that doesn’t occur everyday.  However–totally not the case with these pieces!

If I’m being honest, the very first thing I do when I come in the door at the end of the day [besides greeting the fur babies] is change into comfy, loungy clothes.  Case in point.. I have these pants and these UGG slippers on right now as I type this post for you all, seriously! [see below for more options that also fit this mold!]

I love a good mocassin to wear around the house.  In fact I have these and I wear them lots but I was really wanting a pair of true slide-on slippers.  They’re perfect to keep right by the side of your bed or at the bottom of the couch because you can just slip them on in half a second before you hop up and get to avoid the cold floor all together.  [Now not only do I sound lazy but I also sound kinda old, don’t I?  But I don’t even care.  They make me that happy, ha!]  And since they’re made by UGG, I know they will last.  I’ve had my other mocassins for 9 years.  Yep, 9!  How crazy is that?!

These would make the PERFECT gift too. (Plus–hello free shipping from Nordstrom, heyyy!  Always a plus.)  When I was younger, we got some sort of pjs each year from my Granny & Pappyo.  As soon as we opened them we put them on.  I feel like I would revert right back to my younger self if I opened these on Christmas morning.  They would immediately go on my feet! [I sized up,  I’m wearing an 8]  Mine are the Chestnut color option.

I wish you all could feel these pants.  They’re pretty amaze.  Like a thin, soft fleece material–super soft.  They come in several other colors too.  [wearing an xs] I will definitely be trying more items from this brand that I came across at Nordstrom.  Oh, and this sweater also comes in a really festive red color option!  It’s the perf amount of oversize and slouch! [wearing a small]

FYI–snag this mug because it’s a great stocking stuffer or friend gift.  Under $15!

Friday Finds

Happy Friday loves!  All I have been wanting to buy lately is new sweaters.  Seriously.  There are so many great ones out there right now so I figured I would share 5 new ones that I snagged this week with you all!

Style tip:  More often that not, I like to size up [at least one size] when buying sweaters so they fit really relaxed and a bit over-sized.  I included my sizing in each below for reference.

First up, this little bell sleeve cutie.  Under $60!  && comes in black and rust too! I had been eyeing so many similar options to this but they were all double the price so I was thrilled to when I got this one in mail and loved it! (wearing an xs)

I came across this circle hem tunic when I was in search of a black bodysuit this week and I had to have it!  I love the length (it would pair great with leggings and boots) and soft material.  I know it will be the one I will end up grabbing over and over again during the week when I am looking for something easy.  Sorry you can’t see the ribbed detail on the hem in this quick snapshot!  It also comes in black and brown here.

Fringe is so big this season so when I saw this sweater I couldn’t resist.  I love how cuddly the material is and that it has a little unexpected flare with the detail in the hem and sleeves!  I know I will wear it tons because it will also be filed under: wear with yoga pants around the house.  I love to do that–it makes me feel so much cozier and happier than having on an old t-shirt.  (wearing a small)

&& I know this next one isn’t really a sweater but I am loooving it so I had to include it in this mini round up!  It’s a good feeling material and only $35.  The back is super cute to without being too exposing.  I paired mine with this black cami earlier this week and loved it. (wearing a small)

The internet just doesn’t do this next sweater justice.  I got it in and showed it to Ethan and I said, “wait.. you have to feel this!”  It’s one of those unexpectedly softies and has the perfect slouch.  (wearing a small)

I hope your Friday goes smoothly and your happy hour arrives quickly today! 🙂

I know so many people have had to evacuate due to Hurricane Matthew and you all are definitely on my mind.  Stay safe!

Hat Now: $29–After Sale Ends:$48

Topshop Tank || Loft Sunnies

I know it’s a tad (ok, wayyyy too hot) this week to actually wear this outfit, BUT have you seen those prices above?  That’s why I had to share today!  These items are a part of the Nordstrom Anniversary sale [#NSale]that is going on right now but the prices will go up in just a few days.  If you’re anything like me then you live in leggings and boots in the Fall and Winter.  That being said, I always have my eye out for a oversized tunic to pair with them that is not too short or tight so I don’t have to fidget with it.  This sweater hits the nail on the head and it’s soft too!  I can definitely see me throwing this on for a Friday night date–it will be cute & cozy whether we are going to the movies, to dinner and drinks or out with friends!  I got a size small but I definitely could have gotten an xs and it still would have been plenty big.  Here are a few more tunic options that are also on sale right now:

I tried to include a few pictures so you could see the detail on these boots too since they are such a good buy right now.  The color of mine is Bark Suede.

And side note:  These tanks… if you don’t have one [or four] already then you are missing out!  I wear mine during every season– by themselves and as a layering item as seen here.  The sizing is a bit tricky but just go by the sizes in the parathensis on the website.  All of mine are a 4 US (0-2).   I get a regular instead of petite in these.

Sooo, today is my “Friday” because we are leaving bright and early in the morning to go to Asheville.  I have  a 5:45am barre class scheduled before hand too.  Mistake?  Probably.  But I am so behind in the workout department so I figured it was worth a shot.  Wish me luck!
