Hello friends, heres to making it to mid-week and just one more week until Christmas!
Aint that the truth! And Ive been battling a sinus infection for a few days now, which makes it worse! But, thankfully my doctor fit me in yesterday, and gave me a steroid shot and Z pack. I declined the B12 shot (for energy) because it kept me up all night last time and mama needs her sleep!
AMAZON FASHION HAUL
Today is a brand new Amazon fashion post, and its full of HITS and a just a couple of MISSES. I like to show you those too so that you get the full heads up before you order.
YOUR AMAZON FAVES
Here are your faves from my last Amazon post.
#1 // Ponte Leggings The awesome thing about these leggings is that they fit like a pant with a nice thickness to them and not so super skintight like most leggings. They are very opaque and comfortable at a great price!
#2 // Hooded Pullover Nice and stretchy, and long enough for leggings. Its the perfect piece for layering a puffer jacket over also. I literally want one of these in every color- it comes in 9!
#3 // Soft Pullover Its pajama soft with a nice shirttail hem, and definitely long enough for leggings. Its that soft, brushed cotton material that you almost want to snuggle up in.
#4 // Crossbody Bag Its a great dome shape and medium size that comes in every color for under $20!
#5 // Set of Belts Im loving these stretchy belts too! Ive worn them with both jeans and dresses. They come in a set of 4 and fit TTS.
For Size Reference: Im a shorty (51) and petite, weighing about 110. I typically wear size 0p/25 jeans, XS or XSP in tops and dresses. Lots of times the smallest size on Amazon is a Small, so in that case, thats what I ordered.
SWEATERS & JEANS
I didnt order any new jeans for this post, Im still living in my Mid Rise Skinny Jeans by Daily Ritual, one of Amazons quality house brands. They are a premium denim that stretch to fit your body, while still being nice and comfortable.
They have several colors to choose from and they fit TTS, I wear my normal size 25.
Jeans Sweater Similar Boots Star Necklace
This sweater looked kinda basic on the hanger, but I love it on. Its classic (especially in the navy, but it comes in more colors). Its also a great weight, perfect for inside your office or while out shopping.
Sweater Fit : Im wearing size XS
Jeans Sweater Circle Belt Similar Boots Star Necklace
I had to laugh because when I tried this sweater on last week, I thought it was from LOFT! Its so soft and high quality that sometimes Im still surprised when something this good is from Amazon! Its reindeer chic and would look great with white jeans, a skirt, or red pants too!
Sweater Fit : Im wearing size Small
Sweater Black Jeans on sale $34 OTK Boots Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
For a fancy night out or party, this sweater will keep you warm and sparkly! Its soft and fuzzy with a metallic sheen, almost like a present!
Sweater Fit : Im wearing size Medium (I must have mistakenly ordered that size, Id prefer an XS)
Sweater Black Jeans on sale $34 OTK Boots Star Necklace
GET THIS PULLOVER! I like to call out the special ones and this is a fave! Im partial to these quality lightweight knits because they are so comfortable, but still look pulled together. You can dress them up for work or wear causally around the house like I often do since I work from home.
Of course, the grey with black hearts is fun, but it also comes in tons of colors and also stripes.
Sweater Fit : Im wearing size Small
Top Ripped Jeans Wedge Sneakers Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
These long sleeve crew neck tops from Lark & Ro are a great basic to keep in your closet. Theyre made of a super soft jersey knit that feels cool on your skin and also makes layering a breeze. One review that stood out to me was the nurse who said she likes wearing these under her scrubs. My friend Karen is a nurse, so I recommended them to her!
Top Fit : Im wearing size Small
Check Pullover Mid Rise Skinny Jeans Slip On Sneakers Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
Ive already worn this check pullover out on a chilly day and it kept me nice and warm. Its a 3/4 zip pullover with pockets in a pretty grey buffalo check pattern.
Pullover Fit : Im wearing size XS, size up if you want it more relaxed. Although this fit me well, I would probably order a small next time (theres so many colors!).
Mid Rise Skinny Jeans Graphic Tee Slip On Sneakers Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
Graphic tees are just fun and not to be taken too seriously. You can wear this one in the summer with jean shorts or with a jacket in the winter.
Tee Fit : Im wearing size Small, Id recommend sizing up one- it runs small
Slip On Sneakers pink 6701 Mauve
Another sneaker that is so, so good are these slip on mesh sneakers with over 5,000 positive reviews. I thought they looked cute on the website, but I wanted to check them out in person. They are cute! And super comfy! They are so lightweight, almost like wearing air on your feet.
There are tons of slightly different styles to choose from, so look at them closely- and youll get to pick your favorite colors since they have so many.
Sneaker Fit: Im wearing size 6 (my true size), but the grey pair I bought felt snug, so I returned those thinking I needed to size up half.
LEGGINGS
These Ponte Lggings areonly $18and the best part is they are specifically made to wear with outfits, as opposed to taking your workout leggings and turning them into styles. This pair has clean lines, no pockets for a streamlined fit, made from double-knit Ponte fabric. Theyre nice and thick and hold their shape all day with a comfortable banded waistband.
You basically get the comfort of leggings with the look of a pant.
Leggings Fit : Im wearing size XS and rolled about an inch under to show some ankle
Cardigan Leggings Tee Leopard Flats Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
This long cardigan with pockets reminded me of the Halogen one I have from Nordstrom, (40% off) but a thicker material. The Halogen one is a linen, and this one is a cotton, model and polyester blend. Model keeps its shape and finish, even after frequent washing. I never hand wash anything, so gentle cycle and laying flat to dry is my go-to for delicate fabrics.
Cardigan Fit : Im wearing size XS
Top Leggings Star Necklace Sneakers
For a more casual leggings outfit, this off shoulder sweatshirt and sneakers is an easy look to pull together. The sweatshirt feels nice and thick, and is totally opaque so you dont have to worry about it being sheer.
Top Fit : Im wearing size Small
Yall wanted to know about the bralettes on Amazon and I tried two this round. I ended up with a MISS and a HIT!
Top : Racerback Bralette (size Medium, Im 34D) MISS
I wasnt crazy about this one, its lightly padded, but wasnt supportive and the underband was too loose on me.
Bottom : White Deep V Bralette (size Medium, Im 34D) HIT
This one was a keeper and super cute on! The padded cups are removable and it did feel supportive, kind of like the support youd find in a good bikini top.
White Deep V Bralette Off Shoulder Top Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
Top Fit : Im wearing size Small, which looks great and long enough for leggings. If I would have gotten an XS, it would probably look more fitted like it does on the website.
JACKETS & VESTS
Plaid Vest Top Mid Rise Skinny Jeans Similar Boots Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
This time of year, a puffer vest is always a good idea. You get the warmth of a jacket, but it wont leave you too hot. This vest is made with genuine 600 fill power down to provide weightless warmth and is HyperDRY down, so it retains its loft (and warming power) even when wet. Bonus: Its water resistant. Talk about a power vest!
Really, the pretty light blue plaid is what caught my eye, but Ill take all the benefits too! it to my immediately. It also comes in a classic black and white houndstooth print.
Vest Fit : Im wearing size XS
Packable Coat Mid Rise Skinny Jeans Similar Boots Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
How fun is this red coat?! After trying a white parka, I realized I really like a change from the basic black we always wear. Its nice and warm with a longer length to help shield your legs and booty from the cold. The contoured seaming creates a nice silhouette and it has elasticized cuffs and pockets.
This coat is also packable and folds up into a little bag you can easily pack in your suitcase or tuck into your bag.
Jacket Fit : Im wearing size XS
Soft Striped Vest V-Neck Tee Mid Rise Skinny Jeans Star Necklace Wrap Bracelet
Wowza! Now this is a soft vest! I dig the stripes and pockets and how well it will go with all the basic tops in my closet.
Vest Fit : Im wearing size Small, prefer XS
I like the color, shape and fit of this jacket, but it didnt feel good on, so it gets a MISS from me.
Hoodie Fit : Im wearing size XS
In the alternative, I LOVE this one! Its so super soft and cozy and I didnt want to take it off!
Jacket Fit : Im wearing size XS
Faux Leather Jacket Top Ripped Jeans Circle Belt JCP Booties
Lots of yall wanted a faux leather jacket and I hit the jackpot with this one! I searched for a long time and read many reviews (this one has over 4,500!) and its great! It feels good on, not sticky or plasticky at all.
It looks way more expensive than the under $50 price.
Im also a fan of the soft brown color, detailed stitching, and gold hardware. But, it comes in tons of colors and styles.
Jacket Fit : Im wearing size XS and its fitted. Size up if you want to a looser fit or plan to wear a sweater with it.
Fringe Jacket Lace Cami Belt Flare Jeans (better look here)
I liked this jacket so much that I couldnt wait to wear it! I wore it last weekend to dinner with my friend Trisa and got so many compliments! It has the prettiest feather light fringe! Its an open style with a silky smooth lining inside.
Fit : Runs small, I sized up to a Small
DRESSY OUTFITS
Top Paper Bag Pants Leopard Heels
If youre looking for more options to go with your paper bag waist pants, this ruffled top is a fun option. I definitely like it in the vibrant red, but it also comes in a crisp white.
Top Fit : Im wearing size Medium so size up!
I love the navy color (thats hard to find!), fit, and shape of this dress (and how good it looks with the skinny gold belt). Also, the fit and flare style has great movement.
Unfortunately, the fabric (95% Polyester, 5% Spandex) didnt feel good to me. Im calling it a MISS, but so bummed about it!
Dress Fit : Im wearing size XS
COZIES
Having shared the Athleta jogger set last week made me want to find a less expensive version for you. Dont get me wrong, that pair is 100% worth it and so well made, but if youre looking for a similar vibe, this is a good option.
You get both the hoodie and the jogger pants in this set and they are super soft.
Im wearing the coffee color, which I admit, kinda gives me the teddy bear feels! Id like to see the navy and charcoal in person, those look good online too.
Jogger Fit : Im wearing size Small and the pants are long on me. Id prefer XS.
OMG, this robe is exactly what I was looking for! I wanted a cozy robe that wasnt to the floor and I love this length. Its made of a super soft velour, got lots of great reviews, and comes in several colors. Im wearing charcoal.
Robe Fit : Im wearing size XS
ACCESSORIES
This quilted bag is a steal at only $18, and will hold all your essentials, then some. Its made of vegan faux leather, with gold hardware and zips closed with an inside slip and zip pocket. I think the tassel is a fun touch!
Mine is the brown, and the light brown, blush and nude look really good too!
MORE AMAZON FINDS
As always, I take far too much advantage of Amazon Prime, and I found more goodies below. You can keep up to date with my favorites on my AMAZON STOREFRONT.
Just bookmark that page and check back often because Im constantly updating it!
HAIRDRYER + BRUSH IN ONE
Did you see the video tutorial I shared on Stories for the hairdryer + brush in one? Its saved to my Highlights under blowout if you missed it. I love it because it gives me a salon smooth, voluminous blowout so quickly and easily!
Ali-Shaun watched it and messaged me asking if it was easy to use because she has really curly hair and likes to wear it straight. (It really looks pretty curly, but she rarely wears it that way!)
I offered to come over and dry her hair for her to show her how to use it, but she ended up doing it herself and sent me this message/photo yesterday.
Doesnt she look so good?! Youd never guess her hair starts out curly! That hair dryer + brush works on all hair types and I did use it when my hair was long too. My mom even uses it!
Its normally $59, now $38.
WEIGHTED BLANKET
The weighted blanket Marianna recommended arrived and I got a chance to try it. I do really like it! I got the 6880 size so that it would fit the top of my king sized bed, and the 20 pounds. From what I read, the bigger the blanket, the more the weight is dispursed, so a smaller 15 pound blanket will feel heavier, if that makes sense.
The 20 pounds felt really good. I was sick last night and woke up several times, but I was always loving how good the blanket felt! AND, it didnt make me hot or sweat- thats what I was worried about.
MICROWAVE PLATE COVER
I didnt even know this was a thing, but Im SO GLAD I found it! I hate how food splatters all over the microwave when I reheat it. Thismicrowave plate cover prevents all those nasty splatters that end up sitting in the microwave until theyre caked on.
And cleaning them is always the lowest priority, so I have to look at it daily until I get the gumption to wipe it out. And then, it doesnt clean easily!
Needless to say, Im really excited to receive this!
