Happy Friday, Everybody! WoooooooooooHoooooooooo!
I’m of course happy because it’s Friday, but I’m also THRILLED that today is my monthly Amazon haul!!! Today’s stuff is SO GOOD, y’all. The items are DARLING, WELL MADE, and the prices are FANTASTIC.
Here’s a little sneak peek…
*********************
We’re kicking things off today with a cardigan that I am O.B.S.E.S.S.E.D. with. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhbsessssssssssssssssssssssed.
Y’all. It’s SO SOFT and SO COZY and SO FLIPPING CUTE.
I was unsure about the colors when I ordered the cardi, but I absolutely love the colors in person. Officially this one is called “orange”. I think this would be awesome to wear on Thanksgiving, and it looks like most sizes in this exact color and pattern will arrive in 1-2 days.
I can’t say I LOVE IT enough.
For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
cardigan / white tee / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / distressed jeans / neutral booties
The jeans are from Amazon too!!! They are stretchy (so super comfy) and have a nice straight leg instead of a skinny leg, so they are totally on trend. They’ve got some moderate distressing, but there isn’t a ton of skin peeking through (and I prefer it that way).
I’m wearing the “A1 Ska Blue” but the darker “A Blue” is also great! A lot of the other jeans on this link have material under the distressing, so make sure you realize that before you decide on what pair to order.
Okay, let’s talk sizing. They aren’t sized like traditional jeans. You choose from small, large, medium, large, and x-large. I chose medium because I couldn’t imagine being the smallest size, but I think I should have actually gone for the small. This means that those of you that are typically under a 4 probably won’t be able to wear these jeans because even the smalls will be too big. The reviews are mixed on these, but I like them!
cardigan / white tee / distressed jeans / neutral booties
I know you are going to find this hard to believe (or maybe you won’t)….but I ordered another one of these swingy sweaters.
Why?
BECAUSE I CAN’T STOP. And this gorgeous red was calling to me.
I usually wear a small, but I ordered an x-small this time just to compare the fit. I definitely need a small if I’m going to wear it with leggings, but the x-small is more than fine if just wearing with jeans. It’s still oversized with a great swingy fit.
swingy sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / distressed jeans / neutral booties
This boucle turtleneck sweater is a very pretty dusty pink, one of my favorite colors. It’s thick and warm and oh so cozy. I love the ribbing on the neckline, cuffs, and large hem. It’s a really pretty sweater and is a great deal for right at $40.
For size reference, I’m wearing a medium and it’s definitely long enough for leggings. If you aren’t planning on pairing it with leggings, I would recommend sizing down.
boucle turtleneck sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / distressed jeans / neutral booties
This cable knit sweater has a subtle funnel neck, a really great lattice style pattern, and this one is the most beautiful shade of green! I really like the green, but the ivory is GORGEOUS, the red is festive, and the grey and black are totally classic. I’m wearing a medium, but I need a small in this one. It’s hard to tell, but there’s a lot of room and a lot of extra fabric, and it’s not supposed to be an oversized fit.
cable knit sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / distressed jeans / neutral booties
Do you need a lightweight cardigan? If so, this cardigan is for you! I showed it to you a month or two ago in mustard, but I didn’t love the mustard color (it was more of a sunshine yellow when it arrived), so I sent it back and got this lavender color (officially called purple). I like it much better. It’s a light waffle weave, so it’s not super warm or heavy. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
cardigan / Madewell tee / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots
This striped sweater is soft, thick, very warm, and comes in several different design and color options. It’s very well made and looks much more expensive than it is. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. The medium is currently sold out in this particular pattern, but all other sizes are available.
striped sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots
This totally classic fair isle sweater is one you’ve seen before, but it’s the same sweater as the striped sweater you see above (so I wanted to show it again here). This fair isle pattern is festive and classic. Again, I’m wearing a medium.
fair isle sweater / chain hoop earrings / layered necklaces / cuff bracelet / jagged hem slim jeans / cheetah mules
This green sweater is TO DIE FOR and IT’S BACK!!! It sold out immediately when I posted it last month. It’s sooooooooo soft and I love the relaxed, but not sloppy fit. This sweater has fantastic reviews, and I totally agree. There are actually TONS of colors in this sweater, but you are going to have to click around to find the size you need (and just hope it isn’t sold out yet)! These babies are flying off the shelf.
For size reference, I’m wearing a small. I would say it runs a bit oversized, which is why the small works for me (often times in sweaters like this I would require a medium for room in the chest). I predict this will be one that you will buy in additional colors after you receive your first one.
There are a lot of options on this one necklace link, but the one I’m wearing (although you only see 2 necklaces here) is actually the 3 Layer-Snake Chain&Link Chain&Coin. The necklaces are all separate, so you can wear just 1, you can combine different pairs together, or you can wear all 3.
green sweater / chain hoop earrings / layered necklaces / cuff bracelet / vintage wash straight leg jeans / cheetah mules
Today’s post has lots of great items that I’m really excited about, but I’m extra excited about this crew neck sweater. It’s got a tiny little pleated puff shoulder, and this neutral is to die for (officially called “beige”). This sweater is seriously fabulous and super soft, and there are several colors to choose from. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
pleated shoulder sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots
Here’s the same outfit as above, styled with the striped tote and camo bag strap.
pleated shoulder sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots
Maybe you remember the red one from last month? It’s a great sweater, and this red is a perfect Christmas red.
crew neck sweater / chain hoop earrings / layered necklaces / jagged hem slim jeans / chunky heel booties (light brown)
Are you looking something with a little more punch than just a solid color sweater? This pullover sweater in this darling zebra print is so fun and unique! There are actually several patterns in this sweater that are beautiful and look very high end. It’s very soft and it has some thickness to it, so it feels very luxe on. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
pullover sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots
Y’all know I love a great sweatshirt, and this is a great sweatshirt. You’ll see that it’s fitted and short on the models, but I wanted a very oversized fit, so I ordered the large to see if I would like it. I LOVE IT. The inside is a brushed fleece which makes it very cozy, but the sweatshirt isn’t super thick, it’s just a nice medium weight.
sweatshirt / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / camo sneakers
And here it is with leggings! Again, I ordered the large so I would feel comfortable pairing it with leggings. I love the look. The leggings and the sneakers are both from Amazon as well and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND both.
sweatshirt / pave huggie earrings /7/8 leggings / slip on mesh sneakers (6702 black)
This oversized hoodie is awesome for lounging. This is the “apricot”, but I think it’s more just like a standard cream. For size reference, I’m wearing a small and it’s still quite large. I would recommend sizing down for sure. I’ll definitely wrap up in this at home, but I’m unsure if I’ll wear it out of the house. Maybe I would consider it if I sized down to an x-small.
oversized hoodie / pave huggie earrings /7/8 leggings / slip on mesh sneakers (6702 black)
This quarter zip hoodie is awesome. It’s from the collaboration with Core 10 (an Amazon brand) and Reebok, so you know it’s great quality!
I love the colors, I LOVE the zipper, and I love the style. It’s cropped, which I normally don’t go for in work out gear, but this changed my mind. It’s sporty and just has so much style! For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
And these are the leggings I purchased back in 2019. I’ve washed them countless times, and they still look brand new. They hold their shape, they don’t sag, and they aren’t see thru. They are a great basic. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
quarter zip hoodie / pave huggie earrings /7/8 leggings / slip on mesh sneakers (6702 black)
Here’s a closer look at both the hoodie and the leggings…
quarter zip hoodie / pave huggie earrings /7/8 leggings / slip on mesh sneakers (6702 black)
If you prefer a pair of leggings that’s much more bold, try these printed leggings! I love that they come in short, regular, and long options. I’m wearing the medium short (not sure why I ordered the mediums), but I definitely need the small short. There wasn’t nearly enough compression in these, and I could tell that the mediums would definitely slip down during a workout. Heck, they were kind of slipping down when I was just walking around the house.
quarter zip hoodie / pave huggie earrings / printed leggings / slip on mesh sneakers (6702 black)
Maybe you remember the same pullover but in coral from a month or 2 ago…
quarter zip hoodie / pave huggie earrings / 7/8 leggings / slip on mesh sneakers (6702 black)
This pullover comes in several different color variations in this standard leopard print. This is the “pink”, but I think of it as more lavender than pink. Actually, I guess it’s a pinky lavender. It’s got splits on the sides, and the neckline, cuffs, and hem are all solid. It’s a perfect look for running around town or lounging comfortably at home. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
pullover / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / camo sneakers
This mock neck sweater has near perfect reviews and is 100% cotton! I’m wearing it in the terracotta, but instead of orange tones, I think it has pink tones. It has a shorter fit (although not cropped), and although I love the fit on me, I don’t think it will work on you taller ladies or those with really long torsos. It’s got thick ribbing around the neck, cuffs, and hem. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
This is one of those items I predict that many of you will end up buying in multiple colors. It’s a great quality sweater at a fantastic price at just under $30.
mock neck sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / camo sneakers
I’ve got yet another swing sweater for you today because I just can’t quit them! I’m seriously not even embarrassed or ashamed that this is like my 74th swing sweater. Okay, I might be exaggerating a tad, but y’all know I have several.
This is the pink-white-khaki, and I love the color-blocking on the front, back, and sleeves. One thing I want to mention…..you can see where my sweater is pretty straight across the hem in the front. It is definitely longer in the back like it is shown on the model, but the front doesn’t have the deep v cut that’s shown on the model.
For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
swing sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / jagged hem slim jeans / camo sneakers
Here’s the black one that I showed just last week with the camo leggings and the striped tote and bag strap. I love the look.
tunic swing sweater / must have earrings / camo reflective leggings / dolce vita sneakers
And here’s the black sweater yet again. I snapped this pic last Saturday morning right before leaving for my Charleston girl’s trip! Please disregard the total mess behind me, I was still finishing packing.
This was the outfit I wore on the plane ride there, and it was perfect for a travel day. I’m wearing a small in the sweater and a medium petite in the faux leather leggings. I’ve had SPANX leather leggings that I got from Nordstrom for several years now, but they were quite a bit too long on me. I knew I wanted to try the petite, but I also knew they didn’t carry those at Nordstrom, so I headed to the original source. The medium petites fit me perfectly and hit right at the ankle. I’m so happy I finally sprang for the petite version!
tunic swing sweater / camo bag strap / must have earrings / SPANX faux leather leggings in PETITE / dolce vita sneakers
I have no idea how I stumbled upon this pom pom sweater, but my goodness I am smitten. It is sooooo soft, it has a great amount of stretch in it, and it is beautifully made. I was a bit worried about pom pom placement, but it seems to be strategic, so there’s no unfortunate pom pom/nipple confusion happening. Haha! In addition to the adorable pattern, look at the sleeves! They are fitted at the cuff and so pretty. For size reference, I’m wearing a size 8.
I posted the sneak peek of it on Facebook last week, I had a friend (Shout Out, Ann!) comment that she thought it was going to be a $128 Anthro sweater! SHE’S RIGHT! It looks very Anthro and looks wayyyyyy more expensive than it is.
pom pom sweater / chunky gold hoops / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots
I was also thrilled to stumble upon this crossbody bag. Small structured bags are all the rage night now, and this one has great style at a great price. I have the camel, but it comes in 6 additional colors as well.
pom pom sweater / chunky gold hoops / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots
This cardi is a wonderful basic. It comes in 6 great colors and is lightweight enough that it can really be considered a year round cardigan. I think the longer line makes it very flattering, and it can easily be dressed up or down. It’s under $35 and is definitely nice enough for an office environment. For size reference, I’m wearing an XS, but I think a regular S would be better. I’m wearing the oatmeal heather here.
The simple gold hoops, the fun tassel necklace , and the multi strand gold bracelet are all fabulous and under $15. And the cognac tote is under $20 right now! The bag is awesome and looks much more expensive than it is. The one I’m highlighting is the “brown new style”.
cream cardigan / white tee /gold hoop earrings / tassel necklace / raw hem ankle jeans /cognac tote (called “brown new style”) / leopard bandana / neutral booties (tortilla suede)
Here’s the same cardigan in camel. I LOVE IT IN THE CAMEL and think it looks SO CHIC.
And it looks great with my Amazon leopard belt that is under $15. It’s a totally clasic look that is made up of basics that every closet needs. Again, I’m wearing an XS, but I think a regular S would be better.
long camel cardigan / white tee /gold hoop earrings / leopard belt / gold bracelet (A2 short gold) / raw hem ankle jeans / neutral booties (tortilla suede)
This striped sweater is adorable. It’s officially called “Apricot”, but there’s nothing Apricot about it, it’s definitely cream and black. You can’t see the buttons on the shoulder because of how my hair falls, but you can see them on the site. It’s incredibly soft and cozy. For size reference, I’m wearing a small. I also really love the light khaki, the navy, the black, the grey, and the olive.
striped sweater / gold hoop earrings / raw hem ankle jeans / neutral booties (tortilla suede)
I think a good red is realllllly hard to find, and this is a GREAT RED! It comes in 6 additional color choices, but the red was a no brainer for me, especially with Christmas just around the corner.
I got a medium so it would be long enough to wear with leggings, otherwise a small would have been just fine.
red sweater /gold hoop earrings / turquoise wrap bracelet / raw hem ankle jeans / neutral booties (tortilla suede)
I’ve had this turquoise wrap bracelet since Spring 2020 I think, and it’s still a favorite. The colors are so vibrant, and the price is unbelievable.
red sweater /gold hoop earrings / turquoise wrap bracelet / raw hem ankle jeans / neutral booties (tortilla suede)
This hoodie sweater is super luxe, feels and looks much more expensive than it is, and has a great fit.
I’m wearing a small here, but in the next picture you’ll see it in a medium in a different color. I think I prefer the fit of the medium, even if just wearing with jeans. What can I say, I like a roomie fit.
This exact colorway is just about sold out, but it comes in lots of color options. The “fig” is a new option, and I think it’s so pretty! So is the moss green.
striped hoodie /gold hoop earrings / turquoise wrap bracelet / raw hem ankle jeans / neutral booties (tortilla suede)
Here’s the same hoodie sweater with leggings in a medium. I love how you can dress it up or down even though the sweater itself actually feels very luxe. Again, this color is almost sold out, but several colors are still available and I wanted you to see it styled with leggings.
These leggings are from Amazon too, and they are awesome. They are the 7/8 length, so they hit me perfectly at the ankles. They have really great reviews, and I’ve been very happy with them. They aren’t see thru at all and they launder perfectly. For size reference, I’m wearing the small.

And finally, a couple more pictures of the sweater that I’ve tried to make my personal mission to have all of you at least try it.
Click HERE if you want to get to the post dedicated to this little gem. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
This sweater is SERIOUSLY soft. And it’s a super relaxed fit (which I love). It has a bit of a bat wing design, but it’s still very flattering. I’m wearing the small here and it’s still quite roomy. It comes in 12 total colors.
I had a lot of people asking me about the fabric content since we couldn’t find it listed on the site. I didn’t know then, but I’ve since found an interior tag with the following info: 50% Viscose, 30% Nylon, 20% PBT. If I had to guess, I would have guessed clouds and unicorn wings.

sweater / Wit and Wisdom jeans / leopard flats/ monogrammed tote
And look at this coat, ladies!
The camel and grey color combo is totally chic. Size down in this coat for sure. I ordered the small, but I definitely need the x-small, and I’m NEVER an x-small.
I’m crazy about this exaggerated neck relaxed fit sweater. I recommend that you GRAB THIS SWEATER in at least 1 of the available colors before they are all out of stock.
It really reminds me of a Free People sweater that is 3x the price.
I’m wearing a small here, and it’s still over sized. If you want to wear it with leggings and you are taller than I am (5’4″), I would recommend sizing up 1 size so you’ll have enough length to cover your back end.

SANTA ALERTS
This quarter zip fleece pullover has fantastic ratings, and this one and the red one scream holiday to me. Read the reviews. They all talk about how super cozy and warm they are. I need one immediately.
This quarter zip sweater is perfect for pretty much any man in your life. It has great reviews, and it’s on SUPER SALE right now! We’re talking 60% off, which makes it under $30!
This sweatshirt is great for men, and it’s just UNDER $20! I know this is something that Chris will wear constantly, and I’m always looking for another gift to put under the tree for him.
And how great is this puffer for ladies! It has over 6,000 5 Star Reviews and comes in several colors. Read the reviews, I think you probably want to size up.
I went to the dermatologist for my first full skin check a couple of weeks ago. Everything was totally fine (so thankful!), and I even bought a special package they had on IPL laser treatments for the sun spots on my face. I’M SO EXCITED to get those started.
When I asked the office for sunscreen recommendations, this EltaMD sunscreen was the one they most highly recommended. And looks at those 5 Star reviews!
Check out this mask sheet set. It comes in a set of 10, the ratings are great, and the packaging is adorable! Wrap up the entire set and put it under the tree…or separate them out into different stockings! There’s another really awesome set HERE as well.
This foot peel mask will give you baby soft feet. It has over 25,000 5 STAR REVIEWS! Peel your feet and make them feel like a baby’s tushy with these babies! Grab them for yourself right now (the results are both disgusting and sooooooo satisfying) or throw them in stocking stuffers for a gift that will make everybody oooh and ahhhhh!
This hand cream trio comes in this super cute decorative tin. There are several patterns and scent trios to choose from.
Okay, ladies. I have this exact set of packing cubes and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND them. I got the deep blue (seen below).
This is the first set of packing cubes I have that has 2 zippers on each cube. Look how much the 2nd zipper shrinks it all down! INCREDIBLE! I’ll talk more about my set on my Charleston trip review next week, but they are awesome.
This jewelry travel bag is awesome too. I’ll show you mine next week as well, but I can tell you it’s the best travel jewelry organizer I’ve ever had (and I’ve tried MANY throughout the years). It does a beautiful job of keeping the necklaces from getting tangled, and there’s plenty of places for rings, earrings, and bracelets.
This was a Santa Alert a couple of weeks ago, and I wanted to show you how it matches the jewelry bag! It makes a nice little set!
My toiletry bag is one of my very favorite new items. It holds SO MUCH STUFF, and I love how you can hang it up and everything is so easily accessible. (It has over 15,000 5 Star Ratings and could be at your house by this afternoon.)

READER FAVORITES FROM LAST MONTH
For those that are curious, here are the Top 3 Amazon items from last month
- Y’all FLIPPED OUT and I received sooooooooo many messages about this cream puffer. It comes in several colors and has over 6,000 5 STAR Reviews. It’s lightweight but warm, and a great price! I would suggest sizing up.
- It looks like a ton of you grabbed lightweight cardigan, and I totally get why. It’s so good! I own several.
- I can’t believe these slip on sneakers are still a top seller! I’ve been talking about them for close to 2 years now, but y’all are still continuing to buy them up! I totally get it though because they are truly awesome. They slip right on, they are so comfortable, and they are so affordable! I have the 06702 black, the light grey, and the 6701 apricot.
Here’s last month’s Amazon Haul if you missed it and want to check it out.
*************
And just for fun…
THE LAST 3 THINGS I PRIMED
- I’m struggling with what to get Carter for Christmas this year because he hasn’t asked for ANTYHING! I’ve been able to grab a couple of small things that I know he’ll actually love, like this phone stand. When he watches things on his phone, he has a little set up rigged to prop it up, so he’ll love having this! It’s got excellent reviews and is under $15. I also got this light up football that also has fantastic reviews and is under $40. He hasn’t asked for either item, but I’m confident he’s going to be pumped about both of them.
- I saw this sweater on an influencer, and I was immediately #influenced. It’s similar to the swing sweater I talk about all the time, but the material is different on this one and it comes in different colors as well. It comes in several colors, but I went for this gorgeous red. I think it’s going to be perfect with my SPANX leggings for Christmas day, but you could grab one of the other colors for Thanksgiving! My red one arrives today.
- I don’t need another puffer jacket, but I ordered this one to try for y’all because it’s DARLING. It has some feminine details, and I’m here for it.
*****************

Shay Shull says
It’s FRIDAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!! I am so glad you’re a bad influence on me 😉 . See you in a bit! xx
Kris says
This post is so great! Thanks for all the work you put into it. I LOVE that you show sweaters untucked! My belly can’t handle the tuck!
Sheaffer says
Kris!!! Thank you so much for recognizing the work that goes into these! I appreciate that so much!!!! xoxo
Ashley says
Hi! Sorry if you’ve touched on this already but are you ever going to do anymore Connor’s work wear? I need work clothes recs please and thank you 🙂 Another request would be a holiday party post like dress up things maybe? TIA!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Ashley! Conner works from home now. If she still worked in an office, I would MAKE her do them. Haha! However, since she doesn’t have a need for office appropriate clothing anymore, it’s just not worth her time. So sorry! 🙁 I will try to start incorporating it into my posts more! I know that others would like to see more office wear too, so I need to do my best to make that happen! xoxo
Elizabeth says
Ok so those jeans….I’ve seen other bloggers post them and I never pulled the trigger because I don’t think I fully understand them. The sizing is different, the reviews are good but some people say they are like leggings and I’ve just never trusted it. But now you’re posting them too?? Fine fine fine. I’ll order them since you said it. LOL!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Elizabeth! I haven’t seen anybody else post them! I guess they really like them too? I read the reviews where others say they feel like leggings, but I don’t think that. I think they feel like jeans, just thin and stretchy jeans. Good news is, returns are free if you don’t love them! xoxo
Jess says
Green sweater is so cute! Does it wash well with no shrinkage?
Sheaffer says
Hi, Jess! I actually haven’t washed it yet, so I’m unsure. Sorry I’m not more help! xoxo
