Happy Monday, everybody!
I hope everybody had a great weekend.
Our district has a fall break right now, so the kids have been out since Friday, and they don’t go back to school until Wednesday! We’ve never had a fall break before, but we are totally digging it. We’ve been at the ranch all weekend having some great family time. Carter was a little under the weather for a couple of days, but he’s definitely on the mend, and we’re happy to have two more days of fun in front of us.
Today’s post is my 2nd I’ve done with Kohl’s on finds for all of us ladies! I’ve shopped there for years for Chris and Carter, but I had actually never shopped there for myself (until last month). The women’s department is huge, and since I wasn’t familiar with any of the brands, it seemed too overwhelming to try. Well, I’m happy to report that I now feel confident that I have a pretty good grasp on a handful of brands that really work for me and totally fit our style!
Here are some promotions you need to know about before I start featuring some awesome finds and before you start shopping…

Okay, let’s get started!

THE CARDI YOU NEED
You can’t go wrong with a neutral cardi.
v neck cardigan / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / similar jeans / booties
And this cardi is extra fabulous, because although you can of course wear it unbuttoned over anything you like (like a traditional cardigan), you can also wear it all buttoned up and styled as a sweater. I think this is a cool and kind of edgy way to wear it! It’s a great ribbed texture and has an interesting braided design down the sleeves. If you don’t like the taupe, it also comes in black, grey, and a pretty royal blue. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. Regularly $64, you can grab it right now for $43.99!

I’m wearing the same jewelry throughout today’s post and highly recommend all 3 of the pieces.
I featured this necklace on my last Kohl’s post, and I’ve been wearing it pretty much non-stop ever since. It’s chunky links, it’s matte gold (I much prefer matte to a shiny gold), and it looks great with almost everything. The hoop earrings are matte as well, and although they are on the smaller side, their chunkiness helps them to be seen. Also, the bracelet matches the necklace, and I will highlight it later in the post.

These booties are an incredible buy at only $31.99 right now (with the code SAVENOW). I’m wearing the tan and they are a great neutral color, but they also come in black, cognac, and brown. I will say that this tan color is very much like the light camel color you see in my picture below. Online, they appear to be more taupe with some gray in them, so use my picture to decide if you like the color or not. They are very comfortable for me and true to size.
This outfit is so simple, but I love it.

LOVE THIS COLOR
I love everything about this sweater, but I’m completely smitten with the color. Officially, it’s called “pink confetti”, but I would describe it as more of a soft lilac.
textured sweater / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / similar jeans / high top sneakers
I’m definitely in love.
textured sweater / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / similar jeans / high top sneakers
It’s a ribbed crewneck with ribbed cuffs, it has textured detail at the neckline, and braided detail throughout the body. It also has a metallic thread running through it which adds some subtle sparkle and makes it special! Even with the subtle sparkle, I think it’s fun to wear casually. However, it could easily be dressed up and worn with waxed denim or something similar for a night out on the town! For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
It also comes in olive, mustard, teal, gray, and brick!
Regularly $50, it’s only $31.99 right now with the code SAVENOW.

Now let’s talk about these DARLING high top sneakers.
Y’all know I have a lot of different styles and colors of fashion sneakers, but this is my first pair of high tops. I think they are SO FUN! Comfy, true to size, and the perfect amount of funky for me.
similar jeans / high top sneakers
I actually bought this quilted jacket with the intention of styling it with some athleisure I grabbed, but I had no idea how awesome it was going to look with this sweater.
PRODUCT TECHNOLOGIES & FEATURES
- Draws moisture away from the body to keep you dry and comfortable
- Quilted, packable design easily stores in included zippered bag
- 2 front exterior pockets
- Drop-shoulder design
- Snap & zipper front
- Long sleeves
For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. And you can find it in plus-size too.
And just fyi, it does look great with the athleisure too (which I am planning on showing you in next month’s post). If you can’t wait until next month, go see it on me HERE in a mirror selfie (along with other awesome pieces that I love, but that didn’t make today’s post).

Look how plush this jacket is!

AN EASY TO WEAR DRESS
I’m super excited about this ruffle shirt dress I found, and I can’t wait to show you three different ways to style it today!
This is the “retro daisy”, and it’s a pretty wine color with a taupe floral design. There are vertical metallic threads running through it, but they don’t make the dress too sparkly, they just add a subtle shimmer which I actually like. There are no zippers or buttons, so you just slip it on over your head. It’s a super comfortable fit with an elastic waist and a split neck.
For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. I will say that I’m 5’4″ (with long legs for my height), and it is short. I happen to like short dresses, but if you are over 5’5″, this dress is probably going to be too short on you. You can find it in plus size too!
ruffle shirt dress / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / booties
If you have family fall photos coming up, this would be the perfect dress! You could wear it on its own, but I also have a couple of ideas on pieces to layer on top of it. And layering is always great for photos.
This dress is regularly $60 and worth every dang penny, but right now it’s ONLY $33.60! What an amazing deal!
ruffle shirt dress / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / booties
This rust cardigan is a bit of an unexpected choice, but I happen to love the rust paired with the wine.

I love it paired with this dress, but this cardi will also look great styled much more casually with jeans (as you’ll see in a minute).

And you had to know I’d pair it with a denim jacket as well. Regularly $50, you can grab it right now for only $35.99 with the code SAVENOW.
ruffle shirt dress / denim jacket / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / booties
This denim jacket has near perfect reviews, and I have to agree. It’s comfortable with a bit of stretch, and it has a great flattering fit. Most jean jackets (especially at this awesome price point) are stiff and heavy, but this one is soft and comfy! For size reference, I’m wearing a medium, and it is a bit of an oversized fit.
ruffle shirt dress / denim jacket / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / booties
For a closer fit, I would suggest sizing down 1.

But seriously, how great would this look be for fall family photos?

RUST COLORED CARDIGAN
Here’s the same cardi I styled with the dress above, and now I’m wearing it much more casually with a white tee and distressed jeans.
rust cardigan / similar white v-neck / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / similar jeans / booties
This rust color is so pretty and fall perfection, but it comes in 11 total colors, so there’s plenty of options for everybody.
rust cardigan /similar white v-neck / earrings/ link necklace / bracelet / similar jeans
It’s lightweight, incredibly soft, and a great medium length. It’s not as long as a duster, but it does cover my backside and hips. The ribbed sleeves are fitted, but not tight, so they are very flattering.
This is a great little cardi. In fact, this is one that I can totally see that many of you might buy in at least a couple of colors.

And here’s the same jewelry. Yes, again. I told you these pieces go with everything! And right now the necklace and bracelet are both UNDER $15 and the earrings are under $10!

If you want to go with a more casual vibe for fall family photos, this could be another good look.

MY FAVORITE BOMBER
If you’re a regular blog reader, you know I found this bomber jacket last month and have been obsessed with it ever since. I’ve styled it sooooooo many ways already, but you’re going to see another two ways today!
I styled it similarly with a white tee last month, but I wanted to show you that it looks great layered on top of a colored tee as well.

And look how great it looks with this Blondie graphic tee with all of the brushed gold jewelry.
This jacket is officially called “dark grey”, but all the reviewers seem to think it’s more of an olive, which I 100% agree with. It’s soft, comfy, has an awesome collar, and is so easy to wear and style it tons of different ways. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. I would be able to wear a small, but I like the relaxed fit of the medium.

And I love the outfit with the camo high top sneakers.

And just for fun, a quick walk down memory lane…
Here’s the bomber jacket the first time I highlighted it!
shrunken bomber jacket / eyelet flutter sleeve tee / earrings / short necklace / long disc necklace / bracelet / similar boot cut jeans / similar booties
And I even styled it with a dress in that first post…
I’m telling you, this bomber is fall jacket PERFECTION.
shrunken bomber jacket / dress / earrings / short necklace / bracelet / similar booties
I think it’s pretty obvious that I feel passionately about y’all trying this shrunken bomber jacket. It’s like an updated version of the military jackets I’ve been highlighting for the last several years. This one is still a great muted olive color that functions beautifully as a neutral, but the bomber styling gives it a modern edge.

Tara says
I got the bomber jacket!!! Soooo cute, when I first opened the package I was totally underwhelmed, but on- it looks darling!! Definitely olive green and I got a small, which is true to size! Great recommendation- also I’m a kohls card member and got a flash sale 40% off emailed coupon. So it was a great deal!!
Sheaffer says
Yes, Tara! You have to put it in to realize it’s cute potential! So happy you love it! Xoxo
Julianna says
Great post! A few more things about kohls… they have curbside pickup AND take Amazon returns! I will always be a Nordstrom girl at heart, but those people at kohls are geniuses. I am definitely getting to kohls a lot more these days!
Sheaffer says
YES! Great things to know, Julianna! I too am a recent Kohl’s fan, but they are consistently impressing me! xoxo
Doreen says
Everything is so cute! What size are you wearing in the rust cardigan?
Sheaffer says
Hi, Doreen! I’m in a small! Sorry I left that out. xoxo
Jess says
Hey Sheaffer! Random fashion question- do you think chenille sweaters can still be considered “in” this year? I have a few in my closet.
Sheaffer says
Hi, Jess! Hmmmmmm…I think so! I’m all about wearing what you feel good in, so if you feel good in it, the answer is YES! xoxo
Marissa says
I am ordering the jacket- keep wanting to…now doing it!
The lilac/pink confetti sweater color is so beautiful on you
I have serious hair envy- your highlights are perfection!!
Sheaffer says
Gosh, Marissa! Such sweet comments! You are going to LOVE the jacket. And thank you so much for the hair compliment. Totally made my day! xoxo
Angie says
I’ve been shopping at Kohl’s for years and really feel they’ve upped their game in the last year! Love the rust cardigan on you! Lauren Lane (from The Bachelor) also had a few things last year that I loved! I’m hoping she will add a few more things after her baby is born. I bought several things from last week and am eyeing those high tops this week. 🙂 Thanks for all you do, Sheaffer!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Angie! Since I’ve never shopped Kohl’s for me until this year, I have nothing to compare it too, but I’ve been VERY impressed with my finds and the inventory! Thank you so much for the sweet words! xoxo
