Is it just me, or did this weekend fly by? Like so fast, I feel dizzy.  I can finally sit down and share the promised Spanx links. I have recently fallen in love with Spanx clothing and am excited to see what else they come out with. When I saw these velvet leggings advertised a while back, I knew they were going on my Black Friday shopping list! I got them in the silver chrome color and paired them with a stretchy white tank from Spanx, and this super cute faux leather moto jacket from Apricot Lane Peoria. This tank is perfect for leggings but can also be tucked or knotted. The shoes are the Steve Madden Khloe loafers I shared a few times on Instagram…as you can see, I am still obsessed with them.

I was originally only going to get the leggings, but I needed to add something for free shipping, so the jeans happened. I have been needing new jeans anyway and feel like having a smaller waist and and curvier booty makes it hard to find jeans that fit just right. I knew I loved how my faux leather leggings from Spanx fit me, so decided the jeans were worth a try. Definitely obsessed with these – they are so flattering and comfortable. I paired the jeans with the same Spanx tank for a casual, relaxed look. The Vici heels dress it up a little bit, making this outfit super versatile.

They say to size up one for Spanx leggings and to get a petite length if you are 5’4 or shorter. I am 5’7 and between a small and a medium, so I went with a regular medium in all three items. My other Spanx leggings are mediums as well.

I have a few more orders that should be coming in this week and cannot wait to share. Which of your Black Friday purchases are you most excited about?

Happy Friday! I am here to talk crop tops. To be honest, it took me a little while to jump on this trend. I mean, I am almost 35, a mom, a professional, totally too old to be rocking a crop top, right?

WRONG. Crop tops are my new friend, BUT they must be paired with my other new bestie: high-waisted pants. Thank goodness the days of low-rise jeans are over. Please never come back! #crackkills

This cropped sweatshirt from Target is so comfortable and perfect for fall/winter. It comes in multiple colors and I went with a size medium in the color Camel. Try with high rise jeans for a casual, effortless look. These jeans are from Abercrombie and are currently on sale for just under $60. I like to do a little front tuck and pair with these SUPER comfy leopard sneakers. Scroll down for links!
