Friday Favorites

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.

A SWEATSHIRT YOU NEED

Let’s kick things off with a MUST BUY.

Put this sweatshirt in your cart and go ahead and press purchase. YOU NEED TO GRAB IT NOW. LIKE RIGHT NOW. It totally gives Zella vibes, but it is much more affordable at just under $25. The second I tried it on, I ordered it in black too.

This sweatshirt is one that I will absolutely live in once it’s cooler. I love it with leggings, but it will be cute with jeans and sneakers too. I wanted it oversized, so I sized up to the large so it would be legging friendly. I love the zippers, I love the exaggerated color, and I love the fit. Also notice the zippers on the hem that can be unzipped for more room and some extra style. Now, I do want to mention that this sweatshirt doesn’t have pockets. That’s often a deal breaker for me in a sweatshirt like this, but not with this sweatshirt. The fit and style are just too good.

SOME DRESSES FOR FALL

This dress is definitely a wear now and wear later find.

Wear it now with sandals and wear it later with booties and a denim jacket! The material is lightweight, and the dress is incredibly comfortable. It’s definitely a casual dress, but you could definitely wear it to the office or church. It’s a great teacher dress too. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

Here’s the same dress in a different colorway.

I’m in love with the red and purple floral pattern here and the double tiered skirt. The smocked waistband is wide, but it’s very comfy. I will say it runs big. I’m in a medium here, but I need a small. It’s pretty unbelievable that it’s only $38. This is a great buy.

I can’t talk about this pave coil bracelet enough. I love it. I think it’s so beautiful, and I absolutely think it looks like a piece of fine jewelry. I went to lunch with a high school bestie last week (Shout Out, Kasey!) and she complimented my bracelet and couldn’t believe when I told her it wasn’t “real”.

This dress is so sooooo good. It’s got a smocked waist, a tiered and ruffled skirt, a split neck, and exaggerated elastic hem sleeves. And I’m not sure if you can tell with this picture, but it’s got a bit of a metallic sheen to it as well. It’s got some shimmer, y’all! It’s definitely a dress for a fun event or special occasion. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. It is definitely on the shorter side, which I happen to love, but keep that in mind if you’re over 5’5″.

I’m pretty much always a sucker for any type of embroidery, and I loved the pattern on this hem of this dress. This dress is fully lined, it has a split neck, and it has 3/4 length sleeves (with elastic at the elbow). It’s a super relaxed fit, so although I’m wearing a medium here, I definitely need it in a small. I’m certain that the small will still be roomy enough.

This one is included in the EXTRA 25% OFF sale!

This dress is fabulous. I was thinking it might be a good early fall dress because of the colors, but I hadn’t paid attention to the fact that the pattern on the dress is actually palms and flamingos…. which makes it more of a summer dress I guess. 🙂 The material is very lightweight, so it also lends itself to summer. I’m wearing it as a split neck here, but you can see it worn with the neck closed on the site (love the smocked neck). It’s really cute styled that way too. It’s fully lined through the body and the sleeves are just a tiny bit sheer. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

Due to the material, I would also say this dress definitely lends itself to summer. I love the relaxed fit, the longer sleeves, the split neck, and the navy floral pattern. It is a bit sheer, so I would recommend wearing a half-slip with it. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

FALL IS COMING

Fall is coming, y’all! It’s just about time for me to get out the velvet pumpkins that I fell in love with last year the second I opened the box. They are offered in 13 different color combinations, so you can choose what will work best in your home.

When I saw the card that was included in the box, I fell even harder. I LOVE that this shop owner/artist includes this in her packaging.

Look how sweet!

I know most people don’t think “small business” when shopping Amazon, but there are thousands of small businesses on the platform!

Check out all she has to offer HERE.

NEW SWEATER

And last but not least, I’m so excited about this sweater! I found it on Amazon, and it arrives on Monday! I ordered the khaki, but I love every single neutral color. I grabbed a medium.

 

That’s all for today, y’all! We’re headed to the ranch with just our little family. Lots of relaxing and college football games are the only plans we have. Have a wonderful weekend with your people!
