Clearly not making the best life choices but I’m too obsessed with this sweater! I purchased this yesterday at Urban Outfitters. Usually, by this time of the year, I usually am ready to settle down and lose myself in carbs and only be seen in big sweaters and even bigger coats. But this year, I’ve wanted to maintain my summer bod and my way to stay motivated is by wearing cropped sweaters!

The one that I’m wearing is by Silence + Noise. It’s got amazing thick ribbing details and frayed edges which are both features that I love in sweaters. Not to mention the amazing slouchy silhouette is truly giving me life this autumn.

It also comes in a black colour and I am seriously considering copping it as well because THAT’S how much I love it.

I also really like this one, also by Silence + Noise, in the mustard yellow colour. The fit is very different but I like how it’s still a baggier fit.

If you’re not looking to spend $80 dollars on a trendy sweater, Forever 21 has some great affordable options that are just as cute.

The first frayed maroon one has the most similar feel to the UO one I’m wearing but it’s actually a knit hoodie. The second maroon one is a tighter fit but has an amazing frayed and distressed detailing. There’s also the black frayed sweater which is only distressed at the hems if you’re not into distressing in the middle of sweaters. It’s also a nice baggier fit. Along the same category, but a slightly different style, is this beige cropped turtleneck that I think is SO CUTE (and may need to order RIGHT NOW). The hems have this adorable bunching detail ?. And then of course, can’t go without a basic cropped sweater. I adore the v-neck and the baggie fit. Not to mention the colour is SO perfect for fall.

What’s been your favourite trend this fall?

Until next time,

I’ve been looking for a non-cropped green bomber for fall since this past summer. There were some great looking ones at Topshop and Forever 21, but every time I pick one up to try on, they all turn out to be a little too short for my liking. Blame it on my height I guess, but it was actually so difficult for me to find one that didn’t cut me off above my waistline. 

Luckily, I stumbled upon this one while I accidentally walked into the men’s section of Urban Outfitters the other day. My eyes zipped right to it and it was love at first sight. I actually even said aloud “damn I wish I could fit into men’s sizes” and low and behold… they had an extra small that fit me just right. 

Usually when I try on men’s clothing that I like, its the shoulders that mess everything up. Although I have quite square and wide shoulders, they still usually aren’t enough to fit into a men’s shirt or jacket. However, with this piece, I was able to make it work because I actually wanted my bomber to be slightly over-sized. Plus I was going to be layering it on top of warmer clothes for the fall and winter, so having a little wiggle room wasn’t necessarily a bad thing at all. I also love that this one is quilted and the fact that it actually keeps me warm. 

And of course, that it’s a little longer than your average bomber, and cuts me off at mid bum/hip. LOOOOOVE IT. 

If you’ve been having the same issue as me, definitely check out the mens section of Topshop and Urban Outfitters. I’m so glad I stumbled across this cause it’s definitely going to be a staple piece in my fall wardrobe this year. 

Also, this nude nail and bomber look has got me feeling all Kardashian-esque. They should probably just adopt me into their family now. (Kangel Kardashian has a certain ring to it right?)

More soon,
