Recent Purchases 9

AE High-Waisted Everywhere Jogger in Black: I'm not sure why these are called high-waisted because they are just a regular waist, but anyways, I like them. They're a heavier material so they are nice and warm. Overall just a nice pair of joggers! They do come in several other colors and patterns.

Women's Croft & Barrow The Classic Cable Crewneck Sweater in Navy Dot: This sweater is listed as being navy but it's definitely more black. I was a little disappointed that it wasn't actually navy, but it's not that big of a deal. I bought my regular size and it's definitely fitted, so if you are looking for a looser fit you will probably want to size up. This sweater comes in a bunch of different colors and prints so there is something for everyone! The material is softer than I expected it would be and somewhat thick, but not too heavy either. 

Loose-Fit French-Terry Crew-Neck Tunic for Women: I originally purchased this in a really pretty plum color which is no longer available. I ordered this in a size smaller than I usually wear expecting it to be a little baggy, and while it fit in the width, it was oddly short (just barely came past my waist) so I exchanged it for my regular size. And when I got my regular size I was really disappointed in the fit. It was so boxy it just looked awful on me so I ended up returning it. I was disappointed it didn't work out since it was such a pretty color and the material was so soft. 

Also, despite it saying it's tunic length, it wasn't for me. I'm 5'8" and I wanted to wear it with leggings but it didn't even cover my rear. Overall just a disappointing purchase!

Luxe High-Neck Slub-Knit Tank Top for Women in Victorian Jade: And because I'm a sucker for these tanks from Old Navy, I had to order this gorgeous green colored one! Most of these tanks that I own are patterned, so I was glad to find a nice solid colored one as I have a polka dotted cardigan I wanted to wear this tank with.

Honestly can't go wrong with these tanks as they are just so versatile!

Mid-Rise Breathe ON Jogger Pants for Women in Plum: I'm a big fan of joggers and also the color purple, so these were a hit for me! They are lightweight which is nice. Although I just wear them around the house, they are definitely comfortable, light, and breathable for working out.

OFFLINE The Hugger High Waisted Legging in Steel Blue: I have several other pairs of leggings from Aerie, and although these are pretty much the same style as the ones I already own they now have a new name and the material is improved. These are a little thicker material than the previous ones and they fit a little more snug. Despite the fact they are a bit more snug, the waistband doesn't fold or slide down which is nice. They are more expensive than the previous version, so I just waited until they went on sale before ordering them.

Kamryn Lace Up Combat Boot - Universal Thread in Black: I've been eyeing these boots for a while but just didn't want to pay full price for them so I was happy to be able to get them for half off! They fit true to size and are fairly comfortable. They say they have memory foam in them but I wouldn't say that it makes them super comfortable or anything. Since they're new they do feel a bit stiff. Although they're what I would expect for the price. I wouldn't want to wear them for any long distance walking but they're fine for a short length of time.
