Thread & Supply Corduroy Cotton Shirt Jacket [Size down, wearing in L in Chocolate Brown] / Zella High Waist Studio Lite Pocket 7/8 Leggings [TTS, wearing in M] / BP Sleepy Lounge Tee [Size down, wearing in S] / Hoff Art Royal Mile Sneaker [TTS]
This shirt jacket is SUPER comfortable, just the current size is too big! I can reduce the size to Medium and rearrange because I like the idea of it and how it looks with my shoes!
V-neck sweater & Cashmere sweater [One Size / Olive Dark Heather]
Free People Owen Thermal [Size Down, wearing in Small]
Free people dare to dream [Size Down, wearing in Medium]
I can’t understand how heavy this cardigan is!
Topshop Polo Sweater [sized up for pregnancy, wearing Small] // High-waisted Zella lives in leggings [sized up for pregnancy, wearing Small] // Blondo Booties [size down .5]
Personally, this sweater is an understatement for me just because it feels boxy and not flashy!
Everyone liberated from their shoulders [size up one, wearing medium but could do large] // Good American Denim [size up if in between – no stretch] // Mule [size up .5 if in between]
I want to love this top, but it keeps sliding up and won’t stay around my broad shoulders. If you decide to try it, increase the size if in the middle!
Madewell Henley Sweater [runs large size down if in between] // Good American Denim [size up if in between – no stretch] // Mule [size up .5 if in between]
There’s nothing wrong with this sweater, it’s just not “wow!” I! It ran big and I found the oversized shirt to be a bit unflattering and seemed to add weight to my figure!
French Connection square neck sweater [wearing XS] // Kut from the Kloth Donna Fab Ab Raw Hem Skinny Jeans [TTS, wearing in Petite length for 5’2”] // Steve Madden Mules [TTS]
The fit of this shirt was off… it was too short, the square neck didn’t even cover my bra and I had to keep adjusting it…
Halogen funnel head [Size up if in between, wearing in XS but need a Small] // Kut from the Kloth Donna Fab Ab Raw Hem Skinny Jeans [TTS, wearing in Petite length for 5’2”]
While the material is stretchy, this upper is WAY too much for my liking and I feel so drawn in and like I can’t get out of it!
Madewell square neck puff sleeve top [TTS, wearing in XS] // Kut from the Kloth Fab Ab Jeans [TTS, wearing in Petite length for 5’2”] // Steve Madden Mules [TTS]
I don’t know what’s going on with this shirt but it almost looks like the seam where the sleeves and body of this shirt meet is misaligned!
Open Edit Balloon Sleeve Top [TTS, wearing in XS] // Kut from the Kloth Fab Ab Jeans [TTS, wearing in Petite length for 5’2”
French Connection Turtleneck Sweater Vest [TTS, wearing in XS] // Kut from the Kloth Fab Ab Jeans [TTS, wearing in Petite length for 5’2”] // Steve Madden Mules [TTS]
The holes on the arms are too big! It could be cute with a lace bralette but I don’t love it enough to try!
Rails Pastel Button Up Sweater [TTS] / PAIGE High Waist Straight Jeans [TTS]
I love this sweater, but I don’t LOVE it. For the price tag, I wanted to LOVE it.
Free people button up shirts [TTS] / MOTHER Raw Hem Ankle Jean [TTS – Bought these last year and love them!]
Madewell oversized button up shirt [TTS] / IETS Frans Tank Top [TTS]
Again, I don’t love it and the tank has no stretch!
