There’s something so wonderful when you realize that all of the items that you wanted have gotten a deep markdown and you have a rewards card for that store.
I feel like I’ve been looking for a vertical striped top for a while now to no avail. I had seen a shirt similar to this one on a another blogger, but it must have been sold out because she linked to a similar shirt. I was so excited when I saw that J.Crew Factory brought it in because not only did it fit what I was look for, but it was a popover so I didn’t have to deal with all of the buttons! This top has a looser fit and the fabric is fairly thin. However, I was able to easily front tuck the shirt and I have a feeling it’ll layer well under a sweater. (PS This is currently sold out, but they’re a good chance it’ll come back into stock.)
Verdict: Keep
I actually waited all summer to get this cardigan. They originally had it at J.Crew, but the pricing was a little too high. Luckily, it got brought over to Factory almost immediately and I was able to get it for $19. The fit is true to size (same as any of their Caryn or Clare cardigans). My only complain was that the sweater felt a little thinner than some of their cardigans I’ve gotten in the past. (PS This is currently sold out, but they’re a good chance it’ll come back into stock.)
Verdict: Keep
Ever since last fall when I had a great, but thin navy vest, I was hoping that I could find a thicker navy vest that I could wear into the winter. J.Crew Factory to the rescue! If you’re interested in this vest, I would say to size down, because the sizing just felt off when I went with my regular size.
Verdict: Keep
If you haven’t heard by now, I’m obsessed with my green utility jacket from Old Navy. It annoyingly has a down side though: I hate pairing it with anything green. This one was the perfect solution to that. It’s also true to size, but it’s made with a slightly different (maybe softer) fabric than my green one.
Verdict; Keep
Gap Wool Blazer Vest (Petite XS)
Yessss, I’ve been looking for a vest like this and I’m so happy I finally found one that fits! It fits perfectly for petite sizing and the material is nice and thick. I’m going to say it yet again, I can’t wait for it to get a little colder so I can wear it. The price is a little high, but I got it for 40% off, and there’s a super cash day coming up, so I’m hoping I can get it marked down even more.
Verdict: Keep
Old Navy’s tee dresses have been like a weird tease for me. They’re either made out of this perfect, comfortable loose fabric, Or they go for the much more fitted dress (like above). This dress does technically fit me, but it’s too tight for my liking. I debating trying to go up a size, but I know that the shoulders would be too big.
Verdict: Return
As an affiliate of SheIn, I tend to get advanced alerts about sales or any deals that they have coming up. A few weeks ago, they sent me one saying that they were adding some new stock to their Amazon store and offered us a small discount off of the item of our choosing. Since SheIn is inexpensive to begin with, I figured why not try it. I was pleasantly surprised with how well this “bow” top fit, The sizing is closer to a regular extra small (SheIn tends to run small). The only thing I was unpleasantly surprised by was that the bow wasn’t adjustable. I thought the tie may go all the way around so I could adjust it if it was too big, but it was actually just a band that went across your front. Additionally, the bow is not actually a real bow. Once I adjusted it though, it looked a lot more like a real bow and I have a feeling that it’s going to be great for work.
Verdict: Keep
