SWEATER TRY-ON

The first few items I tried on were all sweaters because the weather here in San Diego has started to get a bit chillier! Since we live close to the beach, it definitely gets chilly in the morning and night, so I needed a few sweaters that I can wear throughout the week to stay warm!

Item 1: A New Day Women’s V-Neck Ruffled Pullover ($25)

This was a fun surprise! I honestly didn’t think I would like this because I felt like the ruffled neckline might be too much! But I was pleasantly surprised with how well it draped! It comes in three different colors and would look cute paired with jeans and booties! I’m wearing a size small, and normally would be a medium so I would size down! It’s a very comfortable and cozy piece and the ruffled element gives it a feminine, chic look!

Item 2: A New Day Women’s Slouchy Mockneck Sweater ($25)

I looooooove this sweater! I’m wearing a size Medium in this photo, but switched at checkout to a size small so also size down! It’s so soft and is the perfect sweater to wear with leggings! You can wear with leggings, tennies and a jean jacket or dress it up a little and wear with Spanx Leggings, tall boots and a wide-brim hat! It’s a super versatile tunic length sweater and is honestly so soft! It comes in a ton of colors too and is only $25!

Item 3: Universal Thread Crewneck Pullover Sweater ($20)

Size up on this one if you are on the taller side! I’m wearing a large to add a bit of length to it!! It’s slightly oversized, seriously comfy and is only $20! You can totally wear this to work with some dress pants or pair it with jeans and some loafers! There are like 15 different colors so you can take advantage of the affordable price point and buy multiple!

Item 4: A New Day Women’s Loop Stitched Cardigan ($35)

Okay…so I first saw this cardigan in Instagram on someone and it was super cute! But when I saw it in stores, I wasn’t as impressed! But then I tried it on and it fit so well and has a cool vibe to it! The large loop knit gives it a cool texture and you can wear it opened or buttoned up! It’s super versatile! I love the ribbed detailing and it’s a great piece to add to your closet for those semi-chilly nights! It does run a bit oversized (wearing size small) so size down for a more fitted look!

SHIRT TRY-ON

Item 1: A New Day Ottoman Long Sleeve T-Shirt ($20)

This is characterized as a t-shirt, but I actually felt like it was more sweater material since it’s a pretty thick knit! I love the neckline and the pocket detailing! I would wear this two ways- with my Madewell Jeans shown here, some white sneakers like these, and a headband! For a slightly dressier look, you can wear with Spanx leggings, knee high boots and a faux leather jacket over! It’s a simple basic tee that can easily be dressed up or down!

Item 2: Women’s Long Sleeve Henley Neck Pointelle Shirt – Universal Thread ($14.99)

This shirt is a great basic and layering piece! It’s only $14 and comes in white also. If you are shorter than 5’9, I would stick to your normal size! Otherwise, size up for a longer fit! I loved the pointelle detailing and the beautiful blue color!

Item 3: Women’s Puff 3/4 Sleeve Top – A New Day ($20)

This pullover top features a puckered texture, puffed short sleeves with drop shoulders, and a lovely peplum hemline. It’s made of cotton and some spandex and is a cute top! I loved this dusty rose color, but would definitely size down. I’m wearing a size medium, and would have got a small if they had it in stock! This shirt would be great year-round- wear it with denim shorts in the warmer months or add a layer and your favorite jeans in the colder months! 

Dresses

Item 1: Women’s Long Sleeve Ribbed Knit Sweater Dress – A New Day($29.99)

This Crewneck midi sweater dress is such a fun piece! I’m wearing a size small and love that it fits more form-fitting. You can easily dress it up or down depending on your style! I love it paired with a denim jacket and some casual sneakers! Top it off with a wide-brimmed rancher hat and you are set! 

Swap out the sneakers for booties and throw on a faux leather jacket and you are ready for date night! 

Item 2: Long Sleeve Sweater Dress – A New Day ($29.99)

This midi dress is similar to the previous one, although it has a hoodie and is more of a loosely-fitting dress. I’m wearing a size small and would size down to an extra-small, for a slightly better fit. I think this dress would be perfect for those who are currently pregnant too! There is enough fabric to give a little stretch and it’s a super cute casual dress that can transition into a postpartum wardrobe! I dream of putting my hair in a messy bun, slipping on this cozy dress and adding a pair of woven mules or sneakers to it! Casual yet chic!

Item 3: Puff Short Sleeve T-Shirt Dress – Universal Thread ($22)

This dress was so fun! The color looks a little more orange in pictures, but it is such a cute dress and it is actually long enough for tall girls! I’m wearing a size medium so I would say it is true to size! I love the slight volume in the sleeves! Slip it on, pair it with some braided mules and you are good to go! Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

Pajamas

Item: Women’s Plaid Fleece Lounge Sweater and Pants- Colsie ($20 sweater, $20 bottoms)

I love this pajama set! It is lined with fleece and seriously so warm and soft!! I’m wearing a size large in the top because it was seriously cropped on me, and a small in the bottoms! I love this print so much and you will find me wearing these all winter long!
