It’s Friday, so y’all know what that means! It’s time to link up with Erika and Andrea to let everybody know what some of my favorite things are right now.
I’ve got tons of great items and some pics that I’m excited to share with you today, so let’s get started!
************************
TRADER JOE’S FLOWERS
Trader Joe’s flowers are so dang good. I pick up a bouquet or 2 every couple of weeks, and they just make me smile. I find them to be so much less expensive than flowers ANYWHERE else, and they last forever!
That round little baby face back there makes me smile too.
And gives me a lump in my throat.
************************
COMFY FINDS
Comfy items are still my favorite kind of finds right now.
And this top is ON SALE! It’s made out of the soft fleecy Gibson fabric we all know and love, and I really like this new color block option. The pink, cream, and grey look great together. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
These joggers are nothing new to the blog….I’ve been wearing them for a couple of years now and continue to love them. I’m in a petite small, but they don’t have petites anymore, so I would suggest sizing down 1 size in them if you want a fitted look like you see on me (the regular smalls are a bit baggy on me). They are very lightweight and incredibly soft.
I run errands in this outfit, but I also lounge around the house in it very comfortably. This outfit is so comfy I would sleep in it for sure. If I slept with pants on. Which I don’t.

This tie dye sweatshirt is another great top to pair with the joggers. It’s ON SALE too and comes in several colorways. It’s called a sweatshirt, but it feels like more of a really thick jersey to me because it has some stretch in it. Whatever it is, it’s super comfy. Oh wait, I just looked at the fabric content, and it’s 95% cotton and 5% spandex, which accounts for the give.

The darling tie dye sweatshirt is a new favorite Walmart find!
I did several posts with Walmart last year and really liked a lot of the clothes I found, but then I lost interest after not finding anything I loved for a couple of months in a row. I started looking again when I was preparing for my Walmart+ GROCERY SHOPPING post yesterday, and I’ve found some really great things again! (ex. I forgot to take a picture of them for this post, but these camo Birk dupes are AWESOME. Mine arrived yesterday and I can’t believe how good they are.)
I sized up to a medium for a super baggy fit in the sweatshirt, and it’s definitely super baggy, but I love it! It comes in several colors and is under $15. It’s lightweight, but it’s lined with a thin layer of fleece, so it’s still warm and cozy.

Have you tried the must have leggings yet? If not, DO IT! DO IT NOW!
And please know, I’m being bossy because I care.
Seriously, these are my most favorite leggings I have ever owned. EVER. In my whole life. And that’s saying something because I’ve owned plenty of leggings. They are soooooooo soft, soooooooo cozy, and so flattering. I love them. I’m wearing a small.

If you’re a regular reader, I know you’ve already seen me talk about the slip on sneakers. HECK, you probably already even own a pair of the slip on sneakers yourself since I’ve talked about them so much. They are fantastic. SO lightweight, so comfy, and I love that you just slip them on. I have them in apricot (it’s just a neutral), black, and the grey you see below. The price just can’t be beat. $19.99 is BANANAS.
You saw this outfit a couple of weeks ago in my “Our First Ranch Trip of 2021” blog post, but I’ve been wearing it over and over. It’s just so dang cozy. It’s the must have leggings with my new long sleeve tee (one of my Top 3 finds last month) and the cozy wrap jacket layered on top. I wore this earlier this week when it was 27 in the morning and high 40s when we took the dogs on a walk later that day. AND I WAS COZY!

Continuing on with the jogger theme, look how cute this set is! It’s also a lightweight cozy knit, and it has an adorable heart pattern. It comes in blush too. I’m wearing a medium in the top and a small in the joggers. I won’t be wearing this around town, but I will wear the heck out of it at home.
I get requests for cute pajamas all the time, and I received them even more frequently last year. Here’s a great pair. So soft, so cute, and really great quality. I’m wearing a small and there’s extra room, so I would suggest sizing down (especially if you often find yourself between sizes).
I got the slippers last September and they’re awesome. I’m normally a 6 1/2, and the mediums fit just fine (although a touch roomy).

GREAT SWEATERS
I’ve also got a really great selection of sweaters (and 1 very pretty blouse) for y’all today.
This “old rose” color is gorgeous, and I love the subtle ribbing and the feminine detailing. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. It looks much more blousy on the model than it does on me, but I like both fits. It would look great dressed up for the office too. Or even with black skinny jeans and black OTK boots for a date night or girl’s night out!

Do you remember the turquoise Amazon sweater from Wednesday? Well, here it is in coral. And I think I like it even more in coral! (Click HERE to see it on me in turquoise.)
You can wear it out or in a 1/2 tuck. It’s very well made and would look great with white and/or black jeans as well. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.

This FRI-YAY sweater is another fun Walmart find! It’s DARLING and UNDER $16! I would say it definitely runs on the smaller side because I’m in medium and it’s still snug in the chest. I suggest sizing up for sure.
The embroidery is done very well, and it very much reminds me of something I would find from 1901, Boden, or J Crew.
I think this is an awesome find and will be great with white jeans in spring and cut off denim shorts in the summer!

Don’t come at me for wearing this sweater yet again. What can I say, I’m a fan.
And I’m wearing it again simply because I knew it would look great with my new monogrammed large heart pendant. You’ll see an up close shot of it later in the post, but know this, it’s beautiful.
I got this oversized cozy boucle sweater in blush last year and LOVED IT, so I couldn’t resist this dusty rose when I saw it this year. The turtleneck isn’t tight at all (I can’t stand a tight turtleneck), and I really like the wide ribbing on the cuffs and the hem. For size reference, I’m wearing a small. It comes in 10 colors, so there’s something for everybody.

And at 5’4″, it works with leggings too!
I really loved it with my Zella metallic leggings. The texture on them is so cool! For size reference, I’m wearing a small.

And ladies! Look at this gorgeous sweater!
We’ve loved Wit and Wisdom for years for their jeans, but check out this popcorn sweater from the brand. It’s super soft with a funnel neck and slight bell sleeves. The color is a deep wine red (perfect for this time of year). For size reference, I’m wearing a small.

I’m looking a bit ahead to Spring with this next top, but this floral blouse is absolutely gorgeous. It’s part of the newest Gibson launch, and right now you can get 20% OFF everything on the site with the code SHEAFFER20.
I love the pattern, I love the color combo, and the ruffle details on the neck and the sleeves are perfect. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. It comes in a really pretty white and pink floral too.

HEART JEWELRY
I wanted y’all to see a close up shot of the jewelry I’m wearing in most of my outfits today. I truly love all of these pieces.
This monogrammed large heart pendant is classic and beautiful. The chain is so dainty, and the brushed gold heart is stunning with the monogram. Use the code XOXO for 30% OFF!!!!!!
The pave huggie earrings are the ones I’ve been talking about for over a year now (so sparkly and I think they look real for only $12.95), and the delicate heart necklace is one I just found this week on Amazon! It’s sooooo feminine and dainty, and it’s also just $12.95!

THE PUPS
These two are my forever favorites.

Did you see Monday’s BEAUTY post? I thoroughly reviewed all of the below products that I believe are helping me take good care of my face and lips. I found some really great items that I’ve incorporated into my daily and/or weekly routine and I tell you all about them on the post.
Tula skin reviving treatment pads / Tula eye brightener / Facial Radiance dark spot serum /lash enhancing serum /primer pencil /
lip scrub /serum lip gloss /rose quartz facial roller /sleeping night oil / hydrating lip balm
On Wednesday’s post I talked about lots of different items and did a segment at the end that all of y’all loved called KEEP OR RETURN!
I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep this sweater or not, but I got lots of HECK YES! KEEP IT! responses. So I did. Head to the post to see the other items!
This cowl neck sweater is very different than anything I have in my closet. And I kind of dig that. It’s HUGE and a SUPER relaxed fit even though I’m wearing a small.

Y’all.
In a nutshell, it’s freaking awesome.

Okay, that’s it! Have a wonderful weekend with your peeps!
See you back here on Monday!
Erika Slaughter says
Awww Sheaffer!! That pic of baby Carter is absolutely precious!! ???
Alicia says
Hi! Thanks for all the great finds!! Would you say the red popcorn sweater runs true to size or runs a little big?
Sheaffer says
Hi, Alicia! I would say it runs a little big, but it’s also just made to be more of a swingy fit. Hope this helps!
Ashley says
That Wit and Wisdom sweater and heart necklace looks SO cute on you!! And so perfect for valentines too! ❤️
I love the little heart necklace. I think I need it ASAP for layering.
Love so many things in this post! (Especially the pups!) Thank you for curating all this for us!
Sheaffer says
Thank you for the sweet words, Ashley! xoxo
Nicola says
I really would love to get those leggings but I just can’t get past the seaming on the pockets. I have the worst time finding leggings that are comfortable and don’t fall down!!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Nicola! You can’t get over the way they look, or you are afraid that they will feel weird? If you’re worried about how the way they will feel, don’t! They are so comfy and the seams won’t both you at all! xoxo
Monique says
I agree! One of the reviews on Nordstrom said they remind her of long underwear, and now that’s all I can see with those seams!
Sheaffer says
I’m laughing so hard! In person, they don’t look like that at all to me. I actually love the design element! 🙂
Alison C Connors says
I always look forward to your posts! Have you ever done a video on your skin care/makeup routine application? I would love to see you go thru the steps of how you apply your makeup. Maybe an instagram story? Thanks so much!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Alison! Thank you so much! And I have! There are a couple of highlight reels on ig stories. 1 for tarte and 1 for Nordstrom! xoxo 🙂
Michele S says
I’ve bought the Birks dupes from Walmart the last 2 Summers and they’re every bit as good as the Steve Madden ones!
Sheaffer says
That’s so good to hear! I’m so excited about these, Michele!
Stephanie says
The camo Birk dupes, did you order your regular size? I’m a 38 in true birks, didn’t know if I should go 7 or 8 in the Walmart version. I love that the camo is a bit understated, and for $15!!!! What?!?!?!
Sheaffer says
I’m regularly a 6 -6 1/2…I did a 7, and I wouldn’t want them any smaller. Hope this helps, Stephanie!!!! xoxo
Robin says
Hi, Do you remember what lip color you are wearing in the close up pics of the heart necklaces? My coloring is very similar to yours and that lip color is very flattering on you.
Sheaffer says
Hi, Robin! So sorry, but I don’t remember. I actually think it was a lipstick and 2 different glosses. I remember reaching for the closest lip gloss before taking those close up pictures. Again, so sorry! xoxo
Christina says
Hello there! Some of the links to the sweaters won’t open on my computer today. Is it just me? Thank you!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Christina! I haven’t received reports from anybody else, and I just checked them and they all worked for me. So sorry I’m not more help! xoxo
Christina G. says
Hi Sheaffer! I LOVE reading your blog, and always makes me happy! I love that Gibson spring blouse on you! On Wednesday you showed the Amazon essentials joggers that you loved. From reading your blog the last couple years, I know there’s another pair of joggers that you love and where all the time, but they are a little bit shorter? Can you share the other joggers you wear all the time? They were from Amazon.
Sheaffer says
Awwwwww! Thank you so much, Christina! That means so much! They’ve been sold out FOREVER. I’m so sorry! I’ll be fore sure to let y’all know if they ever come back. xoxo
Jill says
If I lived near you, I’d dog sit for free just to be able to love on those Goldens!
Sheaffer says
Jill, they are the absolute sweetest. You would love them. xoxo
Kristen says
Hi! What size are you wearing in the white Zella cozy wrap sweater? Thanks.
Sheaffer says
Hi, Kristen! XS. Size down for sure! Sorry, I talked about that in the initial post about the jacket and totally spaced on mentioning it again. xoxo
Cheryl S says
Hi Sheaffer?
What fun finds. I love fresh flowers, they make me smile too.
I’ve got 3 different colors of the Gibson block pullover in my cart, hoping I love them. Was a bit disappointed, the slip-on sneakers aren’t on sale, boo ?.
The “friday” sweater is super cute, I’ll have to keep a lookout for it.
Thanks for keeping us stepping out in style!!
❤️?♥️

Lisa Hildebrand says
Looking at those slip on sneakers on amazon. Seems like they don’t make a size 8? Are you in your usual size? If so, I’m out of luck. :-(. Any other recommendations? Thanks! I love your posts!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Lisa! I guess they don’t make an 8? Which is SO WEIRD! So sorry! I’ll see if I can find another good option to share. Thanks for the sweet words. xoxo 🙂
