New Purchases! | Long coat sale and new spring shoes

I recently scored on a major coat sale this past week and I NEEDED to make a blog post about it to let you all know about my finds so you too, can take advantage of the sale!

If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll know I recently started a new job – which brought the need for nicer work coats. Before this purchase, I only had ONE nice work coat (which is too small today and it’s just an itchy one) that I bought while I was working in Texas. It was never a favorite, but I had limited options.

Right now, Nordstrom is having a sale on their long coats, so I had a plan to buy three of them, hoping at least one of them would fit me. I feel like I always have a hard time finding good coats for my petite frame, but let me tell you.. I got pretty lucky with this purchase – which totally backfired on my plan.

I bought this brown coat from Ralph Lauren (31% off) – did not have high expectations, but it’s definitely a fave! Fits well on my petite frame with a size 2. It’s made of a wool mix, so it’s not very itchy.

The second coat I got is also from Ralph Lauren (50%) – I swear I ordered it in black, but it ended up being in the color “midnight,” which I don’t even see listed on the website. I got it in a size XS and it looks great on tied and opened. This is my favorite coat from my entire Nordstrom order.

The third coat I got is from Ellen Tracy (40% off) – I ordered it in a size small, but it felt oversized and the material was very itchy. This is the one that is getting returned. Overall, it’s a cute coat! It’s just not cute on me.

I ended up ordering another coat on Amazon and it’s a great find! I got this coat in a size small in the dark camel color and it fits great! It’s very soft and extremely comfortable. I was afraid it would look too casual, but it works with both workwear and casual wear – a definite must-have.

Almost forgot to talk about the shoes! I ordered my second pair of Rothy’s pointed-toe flats with their new spring design and I know it’s cliche, but I’m OBSESSED. I love it with both jeans and dress pants. I always recommend going up a half-size in ALL of Rothy’s shoes. If you’re a new customer, you can get $20 off any product, just click here!

Okay, that felt like a lot, but I don’t want you guys to miss out on this good coat sale!! Let me know if you end up ordering any coats or Rothy’s! Hope you all have a relaxing end to your weekend!

Favorite Loungewear

Hope you’re all having a great start to the week! I shot a reel of some of my favorite loungewear and when I went to link my pieces, a few of them were out of stock! Those pieces usually come back in stock later, but I’ve linked similar pieces from the same brand in the meantime.

I will post and share on Instagram once I see those pieces are back in stock again! Be sure to follow me there if you’re not already!

Your Favorites |March 1-7, 2021

Here’s last week’s favorites round-up! You’ll notice some things carry over from last week, like the Amazon chest and some egg swing chairs – these seem to always be a favorite item!

The Nike sneakers have also carried over, but the color in the exact ones I have are STILL sold out! You’ll see there are other color options, and I will continue to check and see when my color is back in stock!

Swimwear Finds

A lot of bloggers and content creators are posting about swimwear for spring, and that’s something that’s just not on my list. However, I didn’t want to leave you all hanging, just because swimwear is not something I’m currently shopping for.

So, I went “window shopping” and took a look at some swimsuits I’d buy myself IF I had plans to get in the water soon. My plans may change as we get into spring, but as of right now, Montana is still cold and I have zero need for swimwear.

Everything I’ve linked are all styles I’d wear myself. The swimsuits I found on Amazon are available on Amazon Prime.

The ones linked from Aerie are the only ones I found cute and I think would work on women bigger on top. I wanted to link another top option, but I knew realistically, it wouldn’t fit well on me.

The options from Nordstrom are a total splurge. I think they are the cutest one piece sets I’ve ever seen – I also kept coming back to them while I was “window shopping” !

Let me know which look is your favorite and which ones you end up buying! And please let me know if there’s a better go-to store for swimwear! I don’t shop for swimwear often, so I kind of just stick to what I know.
