LeahLeave a comment

Happy Wednesday, ya’ll! We are officially halfway through the week, and another day closer to the weekend!

If you’re like me, you love being comfy and cozy during the holiday season but also want to look good and put together.

I’ve been buying pieces from United Monogram for about a year now, and let me just tell you I did a little happy dance when they dropped their Holiday Collection!

It’s full of the things we know and associate with the holidays; snow, snowmen, candy canes, cute little red trucks, and all the stops! Did I mention they added glitter designs this year too?? *insert heart eye emoji here*

Today, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite pieces from this collection that are giving me all the merry and bright and festive vibes! These are great “treat your self” pieces or great gifts to give to someone else! Did I mention that they’re all on sale too?!

What piece(s) will you be rocking this holiday season?

XOXO,

My Favorite Pieces from Vici for Fall

LeahLeave a comment

It’s fall, y’all!

In honor of the cooler temps and my favorite season of the year, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite pieces from Vici for fall to share with y’all!

For sizing reference my measurements are as follows: 5’00” tall, 25″ waist, 34″ hips, 32″ bust.

First up we have two of my favorite basic tank tops; the Physique Racerback Tank. I have this style in black and white, and pair them with everything from workout shorts to cute skirts! They’re so perfect to dress up or down. Wearing a size small

If you’ve read any of my other fashion posts, you’ll know I’m kind of picky when it comes to jeans. I’m a leggings and athleisure girl through and through. I’ve had the Universal Distressed Frayed Skinny Jeans for several years now, and they’re honestly one of my favorite pairs! I love that the distressing has held up so well. There’s some stretch to them, which I love. Wearing a size 1

Another favorite of mine is the From A Dream Lace Top! The lace detail is so pretty and adds the perfect touch. I’ve worn this to just run errands or for date nights out with my husband. It does have a black cami lining underneath, but can be removed if you’d rather wear something else. This top definitely gives me all the moody fall vibes! Wearing a size small

Now, it wouldn’t be fall without cute and cozy sweaters! I’m all about getting to look cute while simultaneously feeling like I’m wrapped in a blanket. These two sweaters are my absolute favorites; The Coziest Yet Pocketed Cardigan in taupe and the Moraga Pocketed Aztec Cardigan. Both are perfect to pair with a plain t-shirt or tank and a pair of leggings for a comfy and super casual day. I’ve also paired them both with dresses before for a little more of a dressed up look!

When it comes to fall, I love pieces that are going to last me years to come and are perfect even with a busy toddler! These days, if it can’t stand up to the toddler test, it’s probably not in my wardrobe. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve gotten spit up, food, etc. on each of these and they clean up like a dream. Not only are they cute and so versatile, but they’re also great for whatever life throws your way!

What pieces are you loving for fall?

Fall Vici Haul

Happy Monday, y’all!

I’m sorry it’s been so long, but we’ve been dealing with a few medical issues with Baby K the last month. That’s a story for another time though. Today, I’m talking about one of my favorite places to shop and the pieces I’ve gotten in the last few weeks!

If you’ve not heard of them before, Vici is based online and out of their three physical locations. They always have great quality pieces that are on trend, as well as staples that can be worn for years to come!

First up are these Name Of The Game Mid Rise Skinny jeans. The jeans have the perfect amount of stretch and are so flattering on! You can dress them up for a night out or down for running errands around town. You can never go wrong with a good pair of jeans, and these have quickly become my favorite pair!

The Restoration Knit Lounge Tank is soft and stretchy in all the right ways. I have it in black and love it for lounging around the house! It also comes in a pretty cream color!

The Moraga Pocketed Aztec Cardigan is the stuff of dreams, y’all! It’s so soft and plush to keep me cozy and warm on cold fall days! This Aztec print isn’t something I had in my closet previously, but once I saw this, I knew I had to have it!

Last but certainly not least, is The Coziest Yet Pocketed Cardigan! I went back and forth on ordering this one, but am so glad I took the plunge! I love the relaxed oversize fit of this, and so does Baby K! When we’re lounging around the house together, I probably have this on since we both love that it feels like a big fuzzy blanket! It looks great with leggings for a loungewear look or with jeans and cute booties to dress it up a bit!

The Loungewear You Need In Your Life

LeahLeave a comment

Now that winter is in full swing, I’m always on the lookout for pieces that follow the 3 C’s; comfy, cozy, and cute! Today, I’m going to tell you all about my new favorite pullover and joggers from Target!

If you’re like me, you don’t really go to Target needing anything specific. You go and Target tells you what you need! That was definitely the case on my most recent trip to what one of my favorite stores.

Most days when I’m just at home hanging out and getting some work done, you’ll find me in some variation of sweatpants or leggings and a sweater. With it being winter, I’m all about staying comfy and cozy, but I don’t necessarily want to give up looking cute to accomplish those. The Target Gods must have sensed this because they sent me straight to my new favorite pieces of loungewear!

This pullover has the cutest cowl-neck detail which I love since it’s not big and bulky! Instead of plain cotton drawstrings, they’re made of a velvet material that I think adds a nice contrast. The bell sleeves give it a fun and feminine touch that pairs perfectly with the high slits on both sides.

I love that it’s lightweight, but still keeps me warm on a chilly days! It’s so perfect to pair with a plain tee or tank top under it too! It also pairs well with jeans and a cute pair of shoes! I have the pullover in Charcoal Grey, but in certain lighting it reads a little more purple than grey. It also comes in several other colors!

Now, let’s talk about how awesome the matching joggers are! Just like the pullover, these are seriously a cozy, comfy, and cute addition to any wardrobe! They have a velvet drawstring waistline which is nice to make sure they stay up throughout whatever you’re doing. While they’re simple in looks, they will not disappoint!

I technically found these in the pajama section, but the simple design makes them perfect to wear to the gym, out running errands, or could even be dressed up a little with a cute top and jean jacket! Just like the pullover, these joggers are seriously soft! I have these in Grey.

If you’ve been on the hunt for a few great pieces to add to your wardrobe this winter, look no further! At $20 (pullover) and $17 (joggers) a piece, these really can’t be beat! If you’d like to see how they fit a little better, head over to my Instagram, @alongftride, to see!

XOXO.
