Denim Crush…
So…I’m kind of in love with these jeans. The split hem seems to be a micro trend for fall, but that wasn’t what pushed me over the edge. It was that seam down the front, which IMO makes these very flattering. They do run large, so I’d recommend going down one size.
Lately I’ve been living in my white linen shirts. The one above is from last year…a couple of similar styles here and here.
Color Crush…
I also wanted to show you this coat, (Plus option here) which wasn’t available in my local stores in Petites so I ordered to try. It’s a very nice topper that would be a winter coat in Southern California and probably a fall-to-late-fall coat in the Northeast. It’s also available in black and grey, though I really like this nutmeg color. The sleeves are knit, which makes them nicely fitted, but they aren’t so snug that you couldn’t wear a light layer underneath.
I’m not keeping this one as I really don’t need another winter weight coat, but I was tempted as it’s a very nice piece. What I’ve realized from trying this on is just how many more styling options a lighter weight, longer jacket in rust, “nutmeg,” or cognac would add to my wardrobe. I’m now officially On The Hunt!
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is now open to all. There’s a lot of merchandise included so I’ve narrowed the field a bit, and you can see my picks on my Sale page HERE.
Bon weekend!
