We had another warm streak this week (thank goodness) so I pulled some of my classic summer pieces to finish out the rest of summer. I love this valley hundred percent cotton knit top. This is my second color in this exact sweater. I love it because it is so incredibly cool with the open knit and not having to wear a tank top underneath it. Your bra does not show through. It does run large. I am wearing a medium in this. I snag these jeans last weekend from gap. They are under $50 currently. They have an elastic waistband with a tie which make them so incredibly comfortable for every day wear. They are a cropped length. I am wearing an extra large. If you’re looking for a fitted knit, ribbed white tee, I love this one from Aritzia. Incredibly soft, I’m wearing an extra large. As for these cool, gold sandals, they run true to size and are extremely comfortable out of the box. If gold is not your color, I got you. They come in all of the classics and I’ll link them here.

Sharing a few outfits from life lately—let me know if you have any questions about sizing.

These are all outfits that I enjoyed wearing and felt great in as a curvy woman.

I’m genuinely shocked but also pleased at the same time that this silk dress is still in stock so I can reshare it with you all.

Let’s talk about how we’re going to wear this more than one way. Silk doesn’t have to be reserved for just special occasions. We can wear it more often especially since this one is washable at home.

Today, I decided to grab my oversized denim button up from @Aritzia that I bought last year to wear over top. Don’t like showing your arms? This is a perfect solution for you then! Also, it can be ANY denim shirt — it doesn’t have to be this exact one though it is a quite nice one.

The blue denim pairs beautifully with the reds, burgundy and brown hues from the dress.

Don’t like it, try an oversized boyfriend cardigan! Or you could pull a plain navy sweatshirt and wear it over top making it look like a skirt.

I’m wearing this dress in an XL.
Sneakers run true to size.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

I’m wearing one of my red 100% cashmere sweaters that I bought 3+ years ago from @Anthropologie . It’s such a best seller that they re-release this every year in new colors. I’ve linked this year’s red version + a beautiful chocolate brown that I’m picking up! I wear this in an XL - it is a boxy fit, but I love how it drapes!

A quick note on sizing because this is exactly why I try things on and share the details with you: I typically wear an XL Petite in the Authentic 360 jeans. I ordered these in my usual size initially, but ultimately reordered them for a 1X Regular because I also wanted a little more length to style them with boots. They’re a little looser, but I much prefer being comfortable over squeezing myself into a smaller size just because the label says so.

These run a little differently than some of the other Authentic 360 styles I’ve tried, so definitely keep that in mind when choosing your size.

Today’s outfit of the day!

It’s been a very busy day, but still wanted to share this outfit even if it’s late into the evening!

Scarf is still available, but showing low stock! Finally a scarf that actually fits around my waist!

#LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize #LTKootd

This is most repurchased sweater! Each season new colors drop and I have to restrain myself from buying all of them! There are two new colors that are calling my name!

I wear this in a medium and large. The fit is oversized—if you want a true oversized fit, stay TTS otherwise size down.

UPDATE:
My typical size in all Authentic 360 jeans is an XL, petite. I initially ordered these in that exact size, however I decided to reorder a 1X (regular inseam). While they fit a bit more loose, I much prefer comfort over the label in my pants. These jeans just happen to run a bit smaller than the others, but that’s what I’m here for–to test it out and let you know exactly how they fit so you can make the best decision for yourself when ordering!

Still a bit chilly today—tomorrow summer is back! So for now, I’m going to wear this cardigan with my white tank underneath so I can pop it off if I get warm.

Wearing a medium in the cardigan and a 32 in the jeans.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

As we start to head into fall, I always look for layering options because I still get hot throughout the day and I like to be able to remove layers as needed. I always start with my tank, then build from there!

Early fall I reach for my button ups because it’s not quite cold enough for thicker sweaters. Once it starts to get chilly, I’ll start incorporating my sweaters and cardigans plus my jackets to help me stay dry.

I’m wearing an XL petite in these green twill pants (sizes are limited because they’re on sale), but I linked the black and blue options. The black would be a great fall & winter staple.

#LTKootd #LTKSaleAlert #LTKMidsize

These jeans are quite literally my alternate ego!. I had hesitations going into it, but you know that moment the jeans actually slipped right over your behind perfectly? Yeah, I had that experience with these jeans!

They fit my curvy body perfectly and I think you will love them if you are similarly shaped to me. I love the Hattie silhouette so I had to give these a chance, especially since they are 40% off at the moment.

I always size up to a 33 in the Hattie silhouette so that I have enough room in the lower tummy if they are rigid jeans. I sized up to a 33 in these particular jeans and I have zero regrets. They fit perfectly!

Where are these now and into fall and winter! They are the perfect relaxed, very slight barrel shape jeans. I plan on wearing these with my sneakers, ballet flats and also with sandals as we finish out the rest of summer.

#LTKootd #LTKSaleAlert #LTKMidsize

I’m so glad I finally decided to give this sweater cardigan wrap situation a try this past weekend. It comes in several colors and I was debating between the chocolate brown and green. Ultimately I came home with the chocolate brown because I had the perfect pants that I wanted to style with it.

I’m wearing a medium large in the cardigan and a large in the pants.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

The perfect fall casual outfit! Whether you’re running errands or lounging around the house (yes, these jeans are that comfy) this is perfect outfit!
I’m wearing a large in the brown cashmere hoodie sweater and an XL petite in the jeans!

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

I bought this jacket several months ago and it sold out so fast, but it’s finally back and in way more colors! It’s such a good going into fall! I absolutely love how it cinches in at the waist. So flattering on a curvy figure.

Jacket - size large
Jeans - size XL petite
Top - size large

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

Last day to take advantage of the @Printfresh PJ sale

I wear a L/XL in the Eco satin robes, and I wear a large in all of the Eco satin PJs. Everything fits roomy and comfortably.

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

Spanx jeans: I consistently wear an XL, petite in all their jeans unless they are cropped. If cropped, I will wear an XL regular inseam.

Gap: I wear a 32 in the baggy ultra soft wide leg.

Target: I wear a 32. I recommend sizing up since they are rigid if you are similarly shaped like me.

AG: I wear a 32 in the Hattie jeans.

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKootd #LTKOver40

🚨jeans are now $26! On sale through Labor Day!

If you’re similarly shaped like me, (full lower belly, thick thighs & booty) size up one as they are rigid jeans. Such a good pair—I have all the washes and love them all!

Jeans—I’m wearing a 14
Jacket—I’m wearing a large
Button Up—I’m wearing a large

#LTKootd #LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40

🚨New arrival alert!

This classic silhouette 100% washable silk dress just dropped in this gorgeous red and burgundy floral print. I wear this in a size XL. Such a figure flatter dress cut on a bias—just skims your curves, no clingy lumps or bumps in sight!

I paired it with this yummy chocolate brown oversized boyfriend cashmere cardigan in a size medium. I recommend sizing down.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

This is the result of when you love everything you ordered! ♥️

Wearing and XL in both red and creamy zip ups. Wearing an XL, petite in the jeans and sized up to a 1X petite in the wide leg pants (they run small in my opinion if you have a full lower tummy).

Sneakers also run true to size.

#LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize #LTKootd

I’m wearing a large in the button up (oversized fit) and a 32 in the jeans. I would say stay true to size or size down one in the jeans depending on loose you prefer you jeans to be.

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

When I saw the sale, I moved so quickly on some of these items. I’ll be sharing all the things I already have and love and some things that I am picking up as well.

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

Curated 6 pairs of jeans that I’ve repurchased in several washes and would give my highest recommendation!

I shared all my sizing details in the post and below:

@Quince Bella rigid straight leg - 33, short
@Spanx barrel - XL, petite
@Spanx lightweight wide leg - XL, reg + petite
@Target rigid barrel - 14, reg
@Spanx kick flare - XL, reg
@Paige leenah - 32, petite

#LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize #LTKSaleAlert

Just saw that my ultra lightweight authentic 360 wide leg jeans got marked down. I cannot recommend these enough. They honestly feel like you were wearing sweatpants. They are that comfortable! I have these jeans in three of the four washes and they have a place in my closet forever. I also have both the petite and the regular inseam. I can wear the petite with my flats and sneakers while I can wear the regular inseam with a minimal heel or my platform sneakers. For reference I am 5’5” tall.

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

Wearing a large in the pink sweater and an extra large petite in the jeans.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKSaleAlert

I randomly found this very inspired by The Row sweater at Costco for under $20. It’s 100% cotton, oversized, and extremely comfortable. Unfortunately, I can’t link Costco here, so if you want the link, send me a DM in Instagram. I’ve linked everything else that I can here.

I size up to an extra large in the sweater and I’m wearing an extra large in the jeans.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

I’m wearing a size large in this dress. Fit perfectly in the bust and midsection. 100% linen!

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKSaleAlert

Last day to grab your AirEssentials favorites for 25% off before the next sale during the holidays!

I first tried this dress last year in a black stripe and loved it so much! I knew I wanted to grab the navy stripe this year.

One thing I love about @Spanx AirEssentials pieces is that their color schemes are always consistent making it super simple to mix and match their pieces.

I always size up in Spanx dresses and jumpsuits specifically to accommodate my lower tummy. I typically wear and XL in most AirEssentials pieces, but sized up to an 1X in this dress. It works every time for me!

Hats are super old, I’ll link similar. The black sandals I’ve had for years and are super comfortable! They run TTS.

This red sweater is selling VERY quickly so I’ve linked another great one that is also 100% cotton with the same fit. I took a medium in the sweater, but I have the exact same sweater in other colors in a size large which also works.

I’m wearing an XL regular in these jeans. I’m 5’5” for reference. I need to wear a small heel or platform sneakers in this inseam. I also have them in petite which I can wear flats with.

#LTKgrwm #LTKootd #LTKOver40

I’m thrilled to bring you another month of @Spanx new arrivals. This month brought us some new silhouettes and washes to some of my tried and true favorite favorites.

You know my love for the Authentic 360 denim collection— of course vintage Tide barrel leg jean did not disappoint and I was beyond happy that they finally released a full length bootcut in Deep Space.

The new Sandwashed AirEssentials separates in Washed Graphite are incredibly soft and I love how they released multiple pieces so you can easily mix and match to your style preferences.

The latest color release Monstera (the perfect green) is now available in the AirEssentials, oversized button-down, and the pleated wide leg. Both will be a great addition for fall styling.

The AirEssentials half zip tunic is one of my favorites and I was so excited to see it get released in the classic Powder color. The popped color is perfection!

Last, but not least, I finally decided to try the AirEssentials cardigan and loved it. So cozy and comfortable. Dress it up or down, it will be a great addition to my wardrobe.

The best part of doing what I do is getting to try some of the most incredible pieces that I know you all will absolutely love!

I’ve shared my love for the game @Spanx Authentic 360 denim collection before and now we’ve got new silhouettes and washes in town.

My all-time favorite barrel leg just dropped in a new wash called Vintage Tide. It is the most perfect mid-blue indigo wash made for fall. They fit exactly like my other pairs from this collect— I am wearing an XL, petite.

And just in time for fall, Spanx dropped a new bootcut which honestly made me feel incredible in them. I’m wearing an XL, petite.

I always recommend sizing up if in between sizes for denim. For reference, I’m 5’5” and typically wear a petite in Spanx jeans unless they are cropped.
