Fit Review! J.Crew Cecile Relaxed Sweater Blazer & Vintage Fendi Baguette

  It's February 28th! That means we made it through our no buy/low buy month! Congrats to those who joined me in this challenge. I have to say, it wasn't that bad this time around. The only thing I really wanted to try was the Nulu Cropped Define Jacket  in Silver Blue. It's currently sold out in my size but I will definitely be checking for restocks or new colors. I do have a shopping cart filled with items for fit reviews. There's also a couple of things I want to try from Athleta as well. The Salutation Stash Pocket Short 5 " looks to be a nice Align Short alternative since Lululemon can't keep up with the demand. I also managed to pull out 15 items from my closet to sell on my  Poshmark  account. I hoped to let go more pieces than that but I'll still take it as a win.  In other news, my company just moved into a new building in Midtown Atlanta. This has been in the works for a little while now and the first day of business is March 7th. I've been w

J.Crew Sophie Open Front Sweater Blazer

About a year ago I purchased the Sophie open-front sweater blazer in heather gray , and I wear it almost once a week. I thought the navy would make a great addition to my work wardrobe. This sweater blazer is made of mid to light weight cotton blend fabric and is perfect to wear all year round at the office.  Sophie open-front sweater blazer   I'm wearing my usual XXS in J.Crew. I would say this sweater blazer runs large. It's possible I could size down to XXXS, but since I don't really have any complaints wearing XXS, I stuck with it.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically wear a size 4 in Lululemon and size PXS in Athleta. The sleeves are 7/8 length and because I'm so petite, they're almost full length on me. Sometimes I'll roll them up a little bit to style it but most of the time I just leave it down at the office. The length of this sweater blazer covers the bum but it's not too long that it overwhelms my petit

Fall Wish List 2017!

I finally managed to snag a Wrap It Up Sweater in mink berry. It should arrive Tuesday although who knows with Hurricane Irma. I ordered it in my usual size 4 and hopefully it fits! I'm not eyeing too much from Lululemon. I am a sucker for textured Define Jackets and this one is calling my name. Define Jacket Variegated Knit Heathered Black (I do wish it wasn't heathered black though, a nice silver gray would be nice) Not surprisingly these days I find myself wanting more Athleta items. I really think this vest is super cute and I can't decide between the pebble gray and soft lilac. And the vest comes in petite sizes!  Responsible Down Vest Soft Lilac Responsible Down Vest Pebble Gray  I actually have this sweater on the way and will have a review up soon. It looks so luxe. Can't wait to try it on. Now that I moved to Atlanta I feel like I have more use for sweater coats than actual jackets! This unfortunately doesn't come in petite sizes s
