Fake Fall clothes


It’s not #fall yet but we’re getting there. With moving, I intentionally didn’t buy any clothes from like April to June because I was grossed out by how much I had in my closet that I haven’t worn since having Sutton. And also, packing up all the dresses I wore for school was kind of depressing because I’m not going to be wearing them and I’m just hoping I got my money’s worth.

Onto some things I can wear in August…


A button down. I wanted this in olive, but they only had it in a small in navy. Runs large! It has a denim look and is like a t-shirt-type material. 

I wear it over everything like a cardigan and I've slept in it too. <$20 well-spent. You could do this with shorts, leggings, a skirt, whatever! 


I bought this camo cropped sweatshirt in-store at the outlet and it’s not on the site but it was $20. I treat camo like a neutral so they have a ton of options online if you like it too!

This is just my personal recommendation but I know everyone has their own preferences for bra-shopping. I only buy bras at Aerie. << It's this particular one only. I found that line there years ago and it was perfect and I go back every year and order a couple more. I don’t care about color so I get whatever is on sale (they all fit the same!) and usually try to hit a holiday sale too. These were $17 each so I grabbed two a few weeks ago. 


Team tees from Old Navy. These were about $15 each and totally worth it. They run true to size so they’re loose but not oversized. I got mediums. Wait for a sale. They're twice as much right now. 


Summer sweatshirt. They have many colors and designs but this was $9 and I couldn’t resist. It’s soft and oversized and absolutely worth it. This is a medium.

I will occasionally pop onto the Madewell site and I saw these “vintage” tees* for $14 each and I always need new basics. They run small, I think. Like, they work but they are not all comfy cozy. 

*I would expect something vintage to be looser.

I'm 99.9% sure that's the mirror I bought in-store and it didn't cost that much (site says $108 and I'd be scared to order a mirror online anyway). 

Lastly, I broke my tar-jay moratorium to buy this mirror (our rental is mirror-less aside from bathroom vanities) and I had to get these shorts. My other two pairs of target pull-on shorts have been worn thousands of times in the last 5 and 3 years, respectively, so I knew I’d get my $15 worth out of these. They are a million percent more purple in person and I didn't know I'd bought brown shorts until I got home and took the tag off (and I am not colorblind). 


Now that I have a mirror ^^^ I will get around to taking pictures again but that also means I'll have to make my bed (so we'll see, I guess).
