Happy Monday, Ladies!
I hope everybody had a good weekend and a nice break from Zoom meetings and e-learning. I slept in after 8:00 on both Saturday and Sunday, and it was glorious. We definitely took it easy this weekend and really enjoyed the slower place.
Today’s post is just a MASH UP of several things I’d like to share with you today! I’ve got some new items, I’ve got some tried and true items, I’ve got some back in stock items, and I have a couple of codes for you for some of my favorite accessories. Let’s get started!
THE ONLY 2 SHORTS YOU NEED THIS SUMMER
I have lots of shorts in my closet, but there are 2 pairs that I reach for all the time. Sure, I might reach for a random pair here and there, but I’m wearing either my denim cut cut offs or my white frayed hem denim shorts 90% of the time.
Let’s start out with my favorite pair EVER.
First of all, THEY ARE ON SALE, so you better scoop them up before they are all gone.
This is my 3rd year wearing these shorts, and they are still going strong. In fact, full disclosure, I have 2 pairs of these shorts. I felt like I needed an extra pair in rotation, and I’m so happy to have a pair to wear when the other pair is in the wash. YES, THEY REALLY ARE THAT GOOD. They have a good amount of stretch to them, are very comfortable to wear, and I think they are super flattering.
I’m wearing my regular size 27s, and I like that they are a bit of a boyfriend fit. I don’t like my shorts tight AT ALL, and these aren’t! They are a fan favorite as well, and lots of y’all love them just as much I do.
And fyi, what you see below is my summer uniform: a colored tee, my rainbow wood tassel necklace, a great pair of shorts, and sandals. And great news! With the code SHOPSMALL you can get the necklace for 30% OFF and free shipping. I’m telling you, this necklace will make pretty much all of your summer outfits cuter.

Want to change it up a bit? Just change the color of your tee. This blush one is from Amazon and I love it. This tee comes in 16 colors and is ONLY $12.97! I’m wearing a medium.

These white frayed hem denim shorts are the 2nd most worn pair of shorts in my closet. They aren’t see thru, they have a great frayed hem, and they have a good amount of stretch in them which makes them comfortable to wear. I’m wearing my regular 4s.
These are the best white denim shorts I have ever tried.

NEW JEANS AND A FUN NEW TEE
I have a sponsored post coming up next week that I’m really excited about, and this tee was a part of the order I placed for that post. The tee didn’t make it to the post, but I still love it and added it to my closet. I thought the green floral pattern was so fresh! I’m wearing a small in the tee.

I did grab these chewed hem ankle jeans for the post. They are so good. The jeans have tons of stretch but do a beautiful job of holding their shape. This is the first pair of “chewed hem” jeans I’ve ever owned, and to be honest I wasn’t sure I was going to like them, but I totally do! For size reference, I’m wearing the 4P. Normally I would wear a 6P, but these have so much stretch that a 4P was good.

A NEW DRESS
This tiered shirt dress is my favorite kind of dress because you can throw it on and go without any thought! I love this floral, but it also comes in a multi stripe, a leopard, and a couple of sold options (including black).
I’m wearing it here with flat sandals, but I would actually prefer dress up with wedges or even dressed down with Converse and a pony tail.
I would normally wear a Medium Petite in a dress like this, but it’s a bit oversized, so the small petite was good on my 5’4″ frame and still plenty flowy.

BACK IN STOCK
When I first talked about this jacket last month, it sold out quickly and I know a lot of you were disappointed. I thought it was gone forever, but it’s now available in all sizes again!
Let’s talk a bit about this jacket. It’s 100% cotton, a great color, I love the fit, and it’s affordable at under $80. I’m telling you, a military jacket is a MUST HAVE item for me and always has been. It’s a great alternative to a denim jacket, and it’s a perfect light layer to throw on over all sorts of tops.
The back of this jacket is what gives it a little bit of extra style. It’s got a little flouncy peplum detail that’s DARLING.
I’m wearing a small, and there’s still a bit of room, so I would recommend sizing down if between sizes. I’m wearing a medium in the tee.

SEE! Look how cute the back is!
The striped split neck sweater is BACK IN STOCK too! When I posed it last Wednesday, it was gone within a couple of hours, but it’s back baby! It’s a slouchy and oversized fit (without being boxy), and I absolutely love the nautical vibes. The split neck with ties gives it a relaxed look, and I thought it paired great with my favorite denim shorts.
I’m wearing a small in the sweater, and there’s still extra room, so I would suggest sizing down.

SALE ALERTS
You can now grab this DARLING BLAZER, AND IT JUST WENT 40% OFF!
Now here’s the deal, I love a blazer, but I have great difficulty finding blazers that are good on me. BUT THIS ONE IS BLAZER PERFECTION. It combines the structure and tailoring of a classic blazer with the softness of a sweater. And it’s the sweater material that makes this so great for me, because the material has some give to it and it’s much comfier than a traditional blazer.

It’s soooooooooo soft and sooooooooo good.
The color is gorgeous, and I absolutely love the fit. I’m able to wear the small in this blazer since it has some give to it. (In a traditional blazer, I would definitely need a medium)

Sheaffer says
Thank you so much, Allison! I will update the post! xoxo
Shay Shull says
I miss your FACE!!!
Alison says
Thanks for keeping us all looking darling during this quarantine time. Question about the denim shorts. Is the cuff sewn all the way around at the bottom? I only wonder because sometimes with other pairs, after washing, I have to iron the cuff back in place. 🙂
Sheaffer says
Hi, Alison! They are just tacked on the sides! I’ve never had to iron them back in place, but I don’t wash these very often and I kind of baby them when I do. I tumble dry for like 5 minutes, and then I lay flat or hang to dry for the rest of the time! xoxo
Shawnee Peacock says
Can the hem be let out on your fav denim shorts? I feel like they would be just a tad to short for me.
Sheaffer says
Hi, Shawnee! They are just turned up one cuff, but I guess you get let that one turn out, they just wouldn’t have the cuffed look! xoxo
Victoria says
Hi Sheaffer. I’m sure you have mentioned this before, but what size are you wearing in the Madewell T?
Sheaffer says
It’s a medium! Xoxo
Jessica says
Is the sweater blazer a true red or more of an orange red or coral?
Sheaffer says
I definitely think of it as more of a coral. Hope this helps, Jessica! xoxo
Mindi Rosser says
Hi! Thank you for all your great finds and sharing info with us! I ordered the Fake Bake Flawless Tanner. It looks great on you! Do you have any tricks to share on applying it? Is it as easy as it seems or does it take practice to get the hang of it? I am concerned about being a streaked mess! lol
Thank you so much!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Mindi! It’s the easiest to apply of any tanner I’ve ever used. It’s brown going on, so you can see immediately if you’ve missed any spots. And if you don’t see it immediately, you can go back whenever and fill in any holes. Just go for it! xoxo
