SALE!!! Okay, how about this Very Merry sweatshirt. The word DARLING comes to mind, and right now it’s ON SALE. I like that it’s fun and festive, but it’s not over the top. The color combo with navy, pink, and red is fresh and super cute. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
SALE!!! My crop bootcut jeans are a very soft denim with great stretch, so they hug your curves in all the right places. Also, the denim is a good weight, so you fill held in. The seams on each side of the bottom of each leg are my favorite part. It’s such a nice detail, and they really modernize the whole look. For size reference, I’m wearing a 4.

SALE!!! This adorable Merry sweatshirt is from Amazon. The quality isn’t as good as the one above (the material is thinner and not quite as soft), but it’s still super cute. I loved the pink background, but you can also get it in white, green, or red. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
Merry sweatshirt / crop bootcut jeans / sneakers / multicolor beaded hoop earrings / bracelet stack

SALE!!! The multicolor beaded hoop earrings that I’m wearing in the first two outfits today are FABULOUS! I got them just last week, I love them, and they just went 40% OFF. I thought they would be a great Santa Alert, especially now that they are ONLY $21!

And you’ve seen this sweatshirt when I highlighted it in the red color (that leans coral), but when it went MORE ON SALE I grabbed two more colors. I couldn’t help myself. I was powerless.
SALE!!! I would say it’s a medium weight. It’s lined with a light fleece… so it’s warm, but it’s not too warm, and it’s not bulky at all. It’s very soft and super cozy. And although not bulky, it is an oversized and relaxed fit. SIZE DOWN for sure. Had I bought it online, I think I would have ordered my regular medium… but I’m wearing an X-SMALL. I’m never an x-small, so seriously, size down at least 1…. but you probably want to size down two full sizes unless you want it really oversized (because the x-small is still roomy on me). I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
SALE!!! I named these 7/8 leggings a MUST HAVE several years ago, and they remain a must have in my closet and my heart. 😉 The 7/8 length is the perfect ankle length on me. I’m 5’4″ with long legs (and no torso) for my height, but I know the leggings stretch and they work lengthwise on taller people as well. For size reference, I wear a small in the leggings. They have a high waist with the perfect amount of compression. They suck you in, while still allowing you to breathe, and they don’t roll down on you! You definitely need the black, but after you fall in love with them, I feel certain you will grab one of the fun colors as well.
Oh Snap sweatshirt / 7/8 leggings / On Cloud sneaker options

And yeah, I grabbed in this light blue too. Don’t judge.
I donated all of the other long sweatshirts in my closet because I knew I would never reach for them again. I feel good about my decision. #noregrets

And as a reminder, here it is in the red with my must have joggers.

SALE!!! I told y’all I was ordering this Zella jacket, and it arrived! I thought I ordered it in the light pink, but it looks like I got the black? I already have a similar jacket in black that’s a staple for me, so I think I’m going to exchange this one for the light pink.
It’s lightweight, but warm. I like how it’s not bulky at all, but it is a bit oversized with a relaxed fit, so I would suggest sizing down. For reference, I’m wearing a small.

SALE!!! This blazer is FABULOUS. I’m about to show it two ways. First up, with denim! Everybody needs a classic black blazer that they love in their closet (I own this one and LOVE IT), but this brown herringbone one would be a nice addition too. It’s tailored with 1 button, tiny puff shoulders, and a rounded hem. I absolutely love the feminine fit. It’s girly and quite flattering. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
SALE!!! These straight leg jeans are fabulous, and right now they are 30% OFF which means they are UNDER $50! They are stretchy, comfy, flattering as all get out, and what I consider to be a perfect straight leg option. And since they are clean without any distressing, they would be appropriate for jeans days at work. I know that wide leg jeans and barrel jeans are all the rage right now, but I have to say, I still find a nice straight leg jean to be more figure flattering. These are a mid to high rise with a slightly frayed hem. I like the length on me with these booties, but I might actually cut a bit of length off so they will show a little ankle on me when wearing sneakers or flats. For size reference, I’m wearing a 27. If between sizes, I would suggest sizing down because of the forgiving nature of the stretch.
I’m loving my new cognac belt too. You’re going to be seeing this in a ton of outfits!
blazer / short sleeve sweater / Aliyah jeans / cognac belt / suede booties / skinny hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack

And of course I needed to show it styled for the office. I mean, who wants to hire me?!?
blazer / short sleeve sweater / pleated straight leg pants / black pumps / skinny hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack

SALE!!! These flat front wide leg pants are a great option for the office if you want to look totally put together, but you want to feel like you’re wearing pajamas. They have the powermesh panels that we’ve all become obsessed with, and they mold and hold while still being comfortable and allowing you to breathe. 😉 I’m telling you, the comfort will astound you. For size reference, I’m wearing my regular size 4. And y’all… these pants don’t wrinkle! Because of that, they’d be perfect for travel as well.
sweater / flat front wide leg pants / suede booties / hoops / coin necklace / bracelet stack

SALE!!! These corduroy boot cut pants are 100% fabulous. I’m wearing the “camel” here, but they come in 9 colors, so of course I’m tempted to grab a 2nd color. They’re super soft, they have a great amount of stretch in them so they’re both comfy and flattering, and I love having a non-denim option in my closet for fall. Please pay attention to how long my legs look. I’m only 5’4″, so it’s definitely an illusion. #magiccords (And I have to say, these suede booties are pretty much a perfect match. If you pair these booties with these cords your legs will go on for dayzzzzzzz.) The booties are so cute, totally modern, true to size, very comfy, and ON SALE too! (Click HERE to see a post dedicated to styling these cords several different ways.)
sweater / boot cut cords / suede booties / hoops / coin necklace / bracelet stack

SALE!!! These black itty bitty boot cut jeans are pretty new to me, and I think they’re great. Y’all know I’ve been a lover of the Wit and Wisdom bootcut jeans for years and years, so grabbing this washed black pair was pretty much a no brainer for me. I like how they’re not shiny black like some black denim is, and they have a bit of a “lived in” look in person. They are insanely flattering and comfy (with the stretch), which is the perfect combination. They do have the brand’s Contour Shape Technology, which makes for a smooth and tailor made fit! For size reference, I’m wearing my regular size 4.
And I have to say, I’m digging the all black look here. I’m feeling really chic.
sweater / black itty bitty boot cut jeans / suede booties / hoops / coin necklace / bracelet stack

SALE!!! I grabbed these faded black jeans last year or maybe even the year before, and they are an absolute work horse in my closet. They added some needed dimension with both the color and the fit. They’re a heavier denim and have a bit more structure than most of my WW jeans, and I’m so excited to be wearing them again this fall. They’re good with booties, with flats, with mules, and with fashion sneakers. They hit at the ankle and have a frayed hem. For size reference, I’m wearing my regular size 4.
sweater / faded black straight leg jeans / suede booties / hoops / coin necklace / bracelet stack

SALE!!! Now let’s talk about these frayed hem boot cut jeans. The leg is slightly flared, and I love the frayed hem. I actually think they are kind of like a super subtle wide leg. They have the mold and hold technology that we all love, and they will make you feel like a million bucks! Again, I for sure feel taller and skinnier with them on. True to size, I’m wearing a 4.
sweater / itty bitty boot cut jeans / suede booties / hoops / coin necklace / bracelet stack

SALE!!! These flare jeans are a dark denim wash, so they look polished, and they will make you feel fabulous. They have the shaping panels that mold and hold (THANK YOU WIT AND WISDOM), and like all of their full-length jeans, they will make you feel taller and skinnier (than you already are). 😉 If you’re tall, these could be dressed down with sneakers. But they could also be dressed up with heels! Pair them with a fancy top for a casual holiday party. I’m wearing my regular size 4 in these, but size down if between sizes.
sweater / flare jeans / suede booties / hoops / coin necklace / bracelet stack

SALE!!! If you want a pair of new denim that leans dressy and is CRAZY flattering, I gotchu. And right now they are 30% OFF! These dark wash flare jeans have the super cute patch pockets in front, so they’re probably a bit different than the other jeans already in your closet. They are soft, comfy, stretchy, and super slimming. Definitely size down 1 size because they for sure run big.
sweater / patch pocket flare jeans / suede booties / hoops / coin necklace / bracelet stack

SALE!!! How about these wide leg cords. These come in regular and petite, and I’m wearing the 4 regular. I do think they are maybe a bit overwhelming on my 5’4″ frame (there’s a lot of fabric), so they would probably be better suited for you taller gals! I would order the petite, but I’ve found with other WW pants that the petites are too short on me because even though I’m 5’4″ I have long legs for my height (and a basically non-existent torso). They are a great pair of pants, and I think they are an excellent non denim option for teachers and even those that work in business casual environments.

SALE!!! This floral blouse is ohhhhh sooooo fall. The colors are deep and moody, and the floral pattern is lovely. Head to the site and zoom in on the blouse to see all of the pretty details like the pintuck pleats across the front, the tiny ruffled collar, the velvet tie, and the wide elastic cuffs. I’m completely smitten with this blouse. It drapes beautifully and is quite roomy, so you might consider sizing down. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium below, but I think a small might be better.
floral blouse / corduroy boot cut / suede booties / hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack

SALE!!! The floral smocked blouse is GORGEOUS. It is sheer throughout the body and sleeves, so I suggest wearing a cami under it. The colors and the details (the smocking, the ruffle cuffs) are absolutely stunning. Head to the website for an up-close look at the details. For size reference, I’m wearing a small in the blouse. (I originally ordered a medium, but there was way too much fabric, so I suggest sizing down).
floral smocked blouse / corduroy boot cut / suede booties / chunky hoop earrings / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack

SALE!!! The floral smocked blouse is the one from above.
SALE!!! The skirt is obviously a perfect match. It has a smocked back waist which make it forgiving and insanely comfortable. The horizontal pintuck pleats across the front of the waist are beautiful, and I’m in love with the ruffly layered skirt. Again, head to the site for an up-close look at the pintuck pleated waistband and the light layers of the skirt. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.

SALE!!! I’ve shown you a neutral version of this boatneck sweater several times already (in “heather oatmeal”), and I liked it so much I was compelled to buy it in the “coral punch” too. But I would definitely describe this sweater as red (and not coral), which is great because I love red. The scallops on the neckline are beautiful, and the detail all the way down the top of the sleeves is really lovely.
It’s very lightweight and can easily be dressed up or down. It tucks in nicely, but the banded hem is very flattering and looks great worn out too. I showed you the heather oatmeal in a medium, but I’m wearing a small in this red version. I much prefer the fit of the small. It definitely runs on the large side, so I would recommend sizing down.

SALE!!! These leopard barrel jeans are a bit out of my comfort zone, but I totally went for them and I’m so glad I did! I mean, I feel like I need to be pushed out of my comfort zone on occasion, and these were the pants to do it. I feel like a cool mom in them.
The reviews on these are awesome. They’ve got a cropped fit and kind of a subtle barrel fit, so I think they manage to still be flattering. Barrel jeans are so on trend, but even though I’ve tried several regular denim ones, I haven’t found any I liked on me (because I found all of them to add bulk). And come on, who in the world wants to add bulk? BUT THEN I TRIED THESE, and I can totally get on board. They’ve got a little bit of stretch in them (which I pretty much require these days), so I’m wearing my regular size 4.
Other pros: they don’t seem to wrinkle and you’re going to get a ton of compliments when you wear these babies.

I thought it would be fun to show a couple of different ways to style them (to show their versatility)…
Here’s how they would look with a black sweater and sleek booties…
black boatneck sweater / leopard barrel jeans / earrings / necklace / woven bag / TB booties / bangle set / lip velvet liquid lipstick

And I think this is a super fun look with the rust sweater and sneaks…
* Heads up about the gold bangle set seen below. I ordered them for myself, but they fell right off of my wrists. If you have smaller wrists, these aren’t going to work for you. If you need a larger bangle, you’re going to love these!

AND SOME OTHER GIFT IDEAS THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON SALE…
You know what I love more than a lip gloss?
5 lip glosses.
So yeah, I ordered this cutie little set for myself. It’s a $128 value, and right now you can grab it for only $38!
I’m going to keep them all for myself, but you could also divide them up for stockings of a favorite things party.

This is the new version of the Nordstrom blanket that we’ve known and loved for years. Does anybody have this one yet? I’m grabbing the navy and will report back as soon as it arrives. This is one of those gifts that works for pretty much every single person on your list! Your sister, your college kid, your father-in-law, your grandmother… EVERYBODY WILL LOVE IT! And you’ll love gifting it because right now it’s right at only $25!

I would love this for myself, but I’m told that teen and college girls love the Free People movement pieces! This is a great one!
Free People Movement Fleece Jacket

If you have a loved one that loves to travel, this travel set is the ultimate in luxury. Click HERE for all of the Barefoot Dreams items on sale.
Barefoot Dreams Ultimate Travel Set

I love Jo Malone fragrances, and I love a gift set. This would make a fabulous present for a lady on your list.

I’ve had my Dyson for over 5 years now and absolutely swear by it. I’m telling you, I know that they are expensive (even on sale)…. but once you have one, you’ll always have one. I bought mine refurbished on eBay, and I’ve never had an issue with it!
This NEW one is a great price on sale right now.

If you’ve been a follower for awhile, then you undoubtably know about this Barefoot Dreams cardigan.
I think it was in my first year of blogging that I first found it. I fell in love with it, I named it a blardigan (because I thought it was part blanket and part cardigan), and then we bought thousands of them. Literally THOUSDANDS.
I think it is probably the #1 purchased items on the blog over the last 13 years. And yes, it’s that good. 3 colors are 40% OFF, and it truly does make one of the most fabulous gifts to give. I’ve given them to my mom, mother-in-law, sister, sister-in-law, Chris’s grandmother, as well as to countless friends and readers that are going through a difficult time. I always say it’s like giving a big hug to somebody. If you give it, the recipient will love it, and they will think of you whenever they put it on (which will be often). I’ve purchased several sizes and colors for myself over the years, but my favorite way to wear it is at home on top of loungewear. It’s just so cozy and luxe.
Again, click HERE for all of the Barefoot Dreams items on sale if you want to see what else is available besides the blardigan.

This would be super fun for a girl’s lunch or a casual holiday party. Maybe just not your kid’s party at school. 😉
Merry Martini fleece sweatshirt

And you can never go wrong with a cashmere sweater.

I’m not going to act like I totally understand what a Toniebox is, but I do know they are all the rage. All of the young mamas on Instagram talk about how they are the perfect NO SCREEN toys for toddlers.
Click HERE for all Tonieboxes that are included in the sale!

Are you a mama or a grandma with a new baby on the way? This would make a great gift! There are over 600 reviews on this monitor, and the great majority are 5 Stars.
Nani Pro Smart Baby Monitor and Floor Stand

This pullover is 40% OFF, it comes in several colors, and it is a great gift for Chris and my brother-in-law.

This is going to be under the tree for Carter.

There are almost 300 reviews for this all over body wash and 87% of them are 5 stars! I’m adding this to cart for Carter too.

Do you have a teenage son? I’m guessing he’d be thrilled with these. I know mine would be.
