    Old Navy Spring 2019 40% off sale

    In case you have missed it Old Navy is having a huge sale of 40% off and I grabbed a bunch of items and I wanted to share with you in case you wanted to grab them before the sale runs out. I am adding a bunch of some of my favorites along with all the ones that I grabbed. Let me know if you have any questions, mostly jeans and basics. I did grab one dress that I didn’t have and I already have the denim jacket which is a must have. Jeans and shorts run true to size and the tops you can go down one size if in between. I don’t wear a ton of dresses but I do have a few from them and ordered the stripe one in as well. Wearing a size small in the dresses.

    Springtime and Summer Wedges

    A guest post by Kayci Gatlin @Kgbehindthelens

    Happy Friday my BEAUTIFUL readers! I hope that y’all have had a fantastic week and that y’all have made some great weekend plans! As for me, I have some real estate I have to photograph but after that I will spend the next couple of days with my daughters at the campground my parents are staying at near the beach. It’s always a fun and relaxing time. Even if you plan on staying home and relaxing, that’s okay because I have some great spring and summertime wedges that y’all can shop!

    I put together some really pretty and casual wedges that can go with ANY type of outfit. I love a good wedge. They go with everything and they are so much easier to walk in. Especially with my grandma knees.

    Try on Haul for H&M Spring 2019

    Love pairing sweaters and shorts and this Try on Haul for H&M was no exception. I couldn’t wait to put together the chunky sweaters with their affordable shorts! They have such good options from dress clothes to workwear to evenings out to causal. I covered all sections this try on session and have a youtube video to share showing the entire process.

    Youtube video:

    Try on for H&M

    In the video I go over all of the looks and sizings for all of the items, if I think something is too big or too snug, how all of it fits. This is a valuable resource to get a better idea of how the item is going to look or fit on you. I am 5’2″ and around a size 4 or small in most items. With that being said I tend to fit best in a size 6 when it comes to H&M bottoms, maybe I just have a round bottom I don’t know but they have always run small on me. As for tops they usually run pretty straight forward on sizing.

    Workwear try on haul for H&M:

    Black pants were too long for me but a good enough price to get hemmed. They fit in a size 6 and were very comfy. This top is a size 4 and fit perfectly. It came home with me this day. I loved how it buttoned up and fit in all areas. This top is a size small as are most of them and pants are a size 6. Trench coats are a size 6 and I could have went down a size in them. Dress was originally a 6 and I went down to a 4. The coats were so darling I wanted to bring all of them home. Will need to wait for a major sale to do that though! I also paired it with a cardigan that is part of the conscious line and under 25, I also took that home because of the price.

    This dress is only 15.00 such a steal! I didn’t even get it for that, it was full price in the store when I bought it. I wanted to show off all of the ways to style it with the different trench coats and also with the cardigan. Like I mentioned previously it was first in a size 6 but that was too big so I sized down to the four which was a much better fit on me.

    This trench coat is so dreamy, I so wanted to get it but my coat closet is literally exploding right now. Such a pretty piece, truly timeless and chic.

    I love this black as well but I do have one just like it from Abercrombie I bought last fall. This one is a good one and will not break the bank at under 70, wait for a sale of 25% off and grab this one.

    I pair this cardigan with denim, black denim and black pants so far this season. I am sure it will look cute with shorts as well for this upcoming warm weather. Lightweight but still a good solid material. Under 25 this cardigan is such a good deal.

    I could not find the link to this top but its a cute one, sleeveless with pleats, it complements the skirt well with matching pleats. I think you could put this top with white pants or camel pants and it would look so fancy. This blazer won me over and I am not normally a fan of blazers. It just looked so sharp and chic on I wanted to take it home but didn’t know if I could work it into my causal wardrobe as much as I would love too.

    I loved this sweater and it came home with me. I love how this looks like a bodysuit and is super slimming. You could easily pull off this look with any high waisted pants. I think any paperbag pant would look good with this top, especially a white pair.

    Office Causal try on haul for H&M:

    Size 4 in jeans, extremely comfortable but not from H&M. Causal office wear of course with jeans. Most offices you could pair the tops with the black slacks in the first photo. This try on haul from H&M showed all the good stuff they have to offer to transition to spring from the winter.

    These white tops are gold, not the color but worth every penny. You can dress them up and dress them down. Pair them with jeans, slacks or shorts they look good doing it all. I love how they look effortless and so chic.

    Loving the neutrals in this try on haul from H&M especially with this tan sweater, don’t make the mistake I did and dry it though, it is now Pipers sweater. I love it but it no longer fits me, great price so I may have to get it again and be careful around the dryer.

    One of my favorite sweaters, I have it in multiple colors! So easy and chic and comfortable, goes with jeans or shorts and looks so cute on. n I have the light gray and a camel color at home already in this sweater.

    This sweater, oh how I loved this sweater. I ended up getting the camel one you see below in a few. It was so hard deciding but they all were so pretty and priced at 29 I knew I could only justify one to the closet addition. These look so good with shorts shown below.

    Causal try on haul for H&M ideas:

    Extremely causal part of the try on haul from H&M. Shorts and sweaters are some of my favorite combinations and I love how they look together. Try mixing and matching your favorite tops from winter with shorts and you will see what I mean. Such good combinations. I go up a size in their shorts and they were still on the snug side so make sure to size up. Love how the cropped sweaters go with the shorts in these photos. This particular pair of shorts is only 13! Such a good deal they are worth getting even if you have to size up.

    For more spring looks head over to my other pages and check out my new youtube channel! Its just in the beginning stages so be nice lol. I hope to get more familiar with it soon. Its always a work in progress but you have to start somewhere right?
