March 2022 – Oh So Fancy Francie

I rarely promote a sale on items I don’t personally own, yet. However, I know my denim as I have owned, tried-on, and sold many styles. I’m posting here so you can get an idea of how this stuff fits and get in on the sale pronto!

All designer denim are from Bloomies 25% off sale.

Frame Le Crop Flare. My favorite style are cropped flares in any brand Frame has lots of compression so if you like a snugger, stretchy fit, this is a good way to go. I tried these on in the store and found them to be true to size. Usually, I size up in white as the weave is tighter, but this one, a little too baggy.

Seven for All Mankind High Rise Flares. 7s have a generous stretch and are always so comfy. The label has come around over the years so I have become a fan again. Because I know 7s to stretch out, I ordered my normal size. If you’re not sure, just order two sizes.

AG Vintage Fit Jeans. I liked this style for a more traditional denim look. I know from experience, AG runs a little snug, but it holds it’s shape well. However, I’m following my white denim rule on this one and ordering a size up.

Madewell. Two Styles here. A cropped wide-leg and a demi-boot. The jeans I’m wearing in the post are Madewell from three years ago. If the designer jeans above are not on sale enough, here are some alternative styles. In my experience, Madewell stretches a lot. So, I’d go your normal size, but again, if you’re not sure, order both sizes.

Good luck! You’ll look fab.!

If you are like me, it’s been two years or more since hitting the refresh button on swimsuits and coverups. There are great colors and styles to choose from that will step up our game. As an empty-nester, there’s no more choosing a suit for function, but fashion. YAY! But act fast! Tons of people are taking beach vacays and snatching up EVERYTHING!

Fashion Alert: I subbed in close-to styles for the sold out items pictured here.

For a more upscale look, I had good luck with Everything But Water and I have to say, their online survey, helped me easily select suits that were flattering and affordable. I stuck to slightly sexy one-piece styles, as that is my most comfortable look. I chose a cover up to match my color picks.

I’ve gotten braver with the two-piece scene. Target had a great selection in current colors at great price-points, but the one I picked is sold out! GRR. So, I found a better quality version at Everything But Water, and based on the one-piece experience, I’m certain it’s a winner. I found a cute cover-up at TJMaxx, which is sold out now, but I did my best to find a link to a similar look. The cover up was my inspo for choosing a bikini in hot pink.
