Claire’s Lululemon Jackets
Always Effortless Jacket [size down, runs oversized wearing 12] // Cinched Waist Jacket [size down, runs oversized wearing 10]
I couldn’t decide between these two jackets, so I ordered both with the intention of returning my least favorite. They both run a bit more oversized than I expected, so I’ll be exchanging for smaller sizes! For reference, I’m typically size M/L or 10/12 and will be swapping both for a size smaller!

I’ve been eyeing these babies for sometime… finally just did it! I have a black pair from last season that I wore the junk out of, so I thought let’s go brown this time around! I love that these just slide on so easy and are super duper comfy to wear all day long! Bonus: WATERPROOF!
Jen’s Tory Burch Miller Sandals
Tory Burch Miller Sandals [size up .5] color: Vintage Vachetta Leather
Funny story, these have been sitting in my cart for almost 2 years now.. I couldn’t ever pull up to checkout because I didn’t want to spend the money, on just “sandals” — but last month I was packing up for vacation and thought, those sandals would go with SO MANY OUTFITS – and I would only have to pack those, lessening up my shoe load for my luggage… so I did it, and I’m hear to report – they are worth it! They go with so many outfits and are comfy as all gets! I can’t believe I waited so long, I know these will last for years!

The perfect companion to any Belt Bag! I love being able to keep my important cards in an organized way… with one simple grab!

Not anymore – problem solved! + it’s got a zipper coin section and another slot on the back for some cash – or more cards! This little lady holds all your favorite things 🙂
