Fit Review Friday! J.Crew Fall Blazers

Happy Friday everyone! I can't believe it's already the 7th of September. This year is flying by. I mean wasn't it just January? I am happy that fall is coming. It's my favorite time of the year and it's when I spend probably the most money on clothing. It's a good thing I went on a ban last month. So I couldn't wait to share with you photos from my J.Crew  order.  Right now J.Crew is offering 40% off your purchase with code FALLTIME . For reference I'm 4 feet 11.  J.Crew Regent Blazer Navy Petite 2 I really love this Regent Blazer in navy. In this blazer I'm wearing a size petite 2. I would say this is true to size. My bra size is a 32A and this fits me very well with a little bit of room to spare. I don't like to feel restricted in the shoulders and arms. Sleeve length is perfect. This blazer is made of soft wool flannel and happy to report it is not itchy at all. The popped collar can be turned down which

Obsessed with these suede booties by Sam Edelman - Petty

Happy Friday! I've got a slightly different review for you all today. I've been looking for a new pair of shoes for a while for work and haven't had any luck all summer. Since the weather is now cooler I switched my focus from sandals to booties and found an amazing pair by Sam Edelman. I have a few requirements when it comes to footwear. They must be comfortable and by this I mean they have to be something I can wear all day with ease. I don't have a job where I have to stand a lot, but I do walk quite a bit around the office. Even though I'm short and can use any extra height I can get, the heel can not be any higher than 1.5 inches. I don't have high tolerance for foot pain. Actually scratch that.  Let's actually make it zero tolerance for foot pain because I'm a big baby. Lastly, it needs to be versatile enough that I can wear it with any of my work pants and yet casual enough for jeans and possibly leggings. I have found the perfect pair! Dru

Fit Review Friday! J.Crew Merino Wool Sweater Blazers

Happy Friday everyone! It's my favorite day of the week! This week I have for you guys my recent fall purchases for work. I'm always looking for comfortable blazers and it isn't easy finding them. I didn't know sweater blazers existed until last month! Is this now a thing? Whoever came up with it deserves an award. J.Crew released a few made out of merino wool that are not itchy, at least to me. I love them so much I plan on wearing these to work a lot. Because they're made of merino wool, they are much softer and so much more comfortable than wearing an actual blazer. For reference I'm a size 4 in Lululemon tops and this translates to XXS in J.Crew or PXS. Merino Wool Sweater Blazer in Black Size XXS This sweater blazer is medium weight and made of high quality merino wool. The fit is tailored but roomy enough to layer for fall. This blazer does come in XXXS, but I think the XXS works well on me.  I totally love the large pockets. I often

Fall Lust/Wish List!

I tend to spend a lot of money on new fall items.  It's my favorite season.  Here I've picked out 12 items I'm currently lusting after.  Doesn't mean I'll actually end up buying them, but I would love to have them!  Some of the items are out of my price range.  But others I may pull the trigger.  In absolutely no order here are my current favorites! Speed Wunder Under Tights in Florence (I am absolutely dying to get these!) Werkshop Geisha Leggings Absolutely love these Werkshop leggings and I'm bummed these sold out in my size so quickly!  I'm waiting patiently for a restock.  If you're new to Werkshop you can receive 10% off your first purchase. Balenciaga Small Classic City I know a lot of people are sick of bordeaux, but I absolutely love it for fall.  This bag is super high on my lust list, but unfortunately I can't have it, so I decided to settle on the Banana Republic substitute instead.  Much more affordable and i
