Sharing all my recent fall finds before they’re sold out!

Alright ladies, you’ve been asking for this one! Here it is! This is my current collection of @Printfresh robes and pj’s! I’ve collected these over time and love every single one! Please note that some prints are older and are no longer available, but Printfresh literally comes out with the most beautiful freshest designs all the time. There two on my wishlist at the moment!

Sizing
I wear a Large/X-large on the eco satin robes and a large in the eco satin pj sets. I do size up to an xl in the eco satin nightgown.

This pair has been a best seller — the wash and fit are perfect! Not to mention, they make your 🍑 look fabulous! I’m wearing an XL, regular inseam.

I paired it here with one of @Spanx oversized button up that’s currently on sale too.

You guys know my love for @Spanx Authentic 360 jeans! And when they go on sale + plus an additional sale, I’ve got to share. I love the dark wash and the washed out black washes for fall and winter. I wear this pair in an XL regular inseam as they are already a cropped length. I’ve also linked the full length version as well since they are also on sale!

I wanted this jacket from the moment I tried it on. It took me three visits to the store to take the plunge on this jacket and I’m so glad I finally did! There were so many color ways, patterns and materials to choose from. This one is absolutely perfect! Think of that material that is like your smooth work wool trousers! So luxe and smooth on! I much preferred this material over the thicker material. This one is 100% wool (not itchy at all). I’m wearing it in a large here.

One day sale — ends at midnight.

Quince does this sale maybe once or twice a year. While the sale prices aren’t groundbreaking, it’s still nice to save a few dollars if what you’ve eyeing is part of the sale.

There’s a lot on sale and you don’t need everything. I’ve shopped Quince for years and know what’s worth the spend!

I put together 5 items that are included in the sale and that I’d recommend for anyone building a fall wardrobe.

One of super easy go-to outfits that I wear on repeat. I have this button up in several colors and also the jeans in multiple washes because I absolutely love the fit.

I’m wearing a large in the tank, button up and an XL petite in the jeans.

Who says getting dressed after 40 has to mean choosing between comfort and style? Not me. 🙋🏼‍♀️

September was a reminder that getting dressed doesn’t have to be complicated to be good. Some days it’s jeans and a tee. Other days it’s a little more polished. But the common thread? I want to feel comfortable, confident, and like myself in whatever I’m wearing.

Because here’s the thing: our bodies change, our priorities shift, and what we want from our clothes might look a little different than it did 10 or 20 years ago. That doesn’t mean we have to settle for outfits that feel frumpy, uncomfortable, or just not us.

We can want comfort AND style. We can dress for the bodies we have right now and feel really good doing it.

So here’s a little look at everything I wore this month. Some favorites, some everyday basics, a few outfits that reminded me why I love getting dressed in the first place and definitely some repeats because that’s real life.

And if there’s one thing I hope you take away from this little corner of the internet, it’s that you don’t need a new body, a new wardrobe, or a complicated formula to feel good in your clothes. Sometimes you just need to find what works for you. ❤️

Which outfit was your favorite this month?

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

Listen, I’m 1000% boujee. I love expensive things, and I have absolutely no problem spending stupid amounts of money on something I really love 💁🏻‍♀️ I am who I am…

But I also love a good find, especially when it gives me the same feeling as when I wear the $200+ item. And these tops? They’re exactly that.

Now I’m not going to lie to you and tell you they are exact because they are not, but these feel amazing, they’re made of good material and they’re very comfortable. And the best part is that they’re only $42!

I’m not here to pretend I don’t love the pricey stuff. I do. But I’m also here to share the pieces that make you feel just as good without requiring you to spend a small fortune.

I’ve been tracking these, I’ve purchased them before (I have three of these tops now), and I can tell you from experience that they sell out every single time!

These just dropped, so if you’ve been wanting this look but haven’t been willing to spend $200+ on one top, consider this your sign to grab them while you can. Trust me, you don’t want to wait on these. 🤍

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

Add this outfit to the “comfy and cute” list for when you need inspiration when getting dressed this fall.

I knew I was going to love this mock neck cashmere sweater already because I bought it several years ago in red (which I still wear today). It’s incredibly soft & cozy. I’m wearing an XL and it fits just the way I like it. It is a boxy fit so to achieve the length I prefer, I opted for the XL.

The jeans… what can I say??? I absolutely love them. They are structured yet so comfortable to wear all day long. Hands down on of my absolute favorites. I’m wearing an XL, petite.

Now on to the star of the show! This jacket! I went into the store three separate times to try it on because I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Shocker, she came home with me…eventually! I got a size large and the fit is perfect! I also tried in a medium (which fully zipped), I just preferred the way the large looked on my body.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

My new chocolate brown mock neck cashmere sweater came in over the weekend and had to wear it this morning as I headed to my doctor appointment.

I’m wearing an xl in the sweater and an xl petite in the jeans.

Look 2 || Western Wrap Cardigan

I fell in love with this trend which I’m normally not one to. I told myself that if I were to purchase this wrap cardigan, I needed to be able to style multiple ways. So here’s look 2. I’ve already worn it three different ways, 3rd way to come.

I love wearing ecru jeans post summer months. I love this pair. I just picked up a wide leg option and can’t wait to try that with boots.

I’m wearing a M/L in the cardigan and an XL petite in the jeans.

#LTKMidsize #LTKOver40 #LTKootd

Went wine tasting today and loved how cozy this sweater wrap was! Jeans are currently on sale — and my favorite of the entire line. I’m wearing a M/L in the sweater and an XL petite in the jeans.

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40 #LTKootd

Absolutely fell in love with this shawl in store! Such a beautiful piece and the fringe detail is stunning.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize

I styled these bootcut jeans with a similar shade of denim for a monochromatic look.

I got this denim shirt last year and it became such a fall & winter staple for me. Love the oversized fit. I'm wearing a medium--I suggest sizing down one.

My typical size in all Authentic 360 jeans is an XL, petite. I initially ordered these in that exact size, however, I decided to re-order a 1X (regular inseam). While they fit a bit more loose, I much prefer comfort over the label in my pants. These jeans just happened 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!

I'm wearing an XL in the reversible roll neck cardigan. This piece runs slightly smaller than the traditional roll neck sweaters (I wear a medium in the regular roll neck, a large in the quarter zip tiny roll neck). I recommend sizing up one.

I'm wearing a size large in the white triple terry jacket. I would say that it runs true to size. It's such a nice substantial quality material - 100% cotton.

This leopard coatigan is from a few years ago, but Sezane does release it in new colors and patterns each year because it’s a best seller. I absolutely love mine—such a statement piece and looks good with jeans!

I’m wearing a large in the AirEssentials button up. Depending on how oversized you like it, either stay true to size or size up. I own it in both a large and XL and love the fit of both.

I’m wearing an XL in the cashmere sweater—the fit is generous, but also slightly boxy so I sized up. The shade of red is from a few years ago—I linked up this year’s version + plus a gorgeous brown that I just bought as well.

I’m wearing and XL in the blouse. The fit is generous—if in between, consider sizing down. If you prefer a loose fit, stay true to size.

The Denim-ish jeans definitely caught my attention because they 100% look like jeans, but the name said otherwise! So in true Christine fashion, I tried them out for you because at this point, I’ve tried almost all of @Spanx ‘s jeans , let’s add one more to the collection!

Now having seen them in person and actually wearing them, I am sold on them! The outer material looks like denim while the feel of them says otherwise! These are going to become a must-have for travel because you can look put together while staying completely comfortable. And no one will be the wiser!

I took an XL, petite in these. I could have probably done the regular inseam. (I’m 5’5” for reference), but I’m completely happy with the length of these as-is.

And finally, so glad I added the new “red” AirEssentials shawl collar half zip to my collection. You know my love for Spanx Red and red in general. This new shade in Lipstain is gorgeous! I’m wearing an XL.

@Spanx did it again ladies! The Authentic 360 bootcut jeans in the Adriatic Blue wash will be a fall staple as we begin to reach for our boots.

It’s such a classic silhouette that every woman needs to have in their closet, especially in this wash. It was honestly such a breeze creating these fall outfits—I intended to only style 5 outfits, but ended up with triple that. Unfortunately, I could only fit in 11 here! Don’t worry though, I’ll be sharing these jeans all season long!

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.

#LTKootd #LTKdayinmylife #LTKMidsize

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

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.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKSaleAlert

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.

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.
