Instagram Round-Up
Hello from the Big Apple! I’m so excited to be back in the city and have enjoyed every minute so far! The BH&G event was gorgeous and the best part was seeing all the friends I don’t get to see in person unless we get together at events like this. Today, we’re heading out on a food tour and I can’t tell you how much I’ve been looking forward to that- especially the Italian fare! Then, it’s onto a show and dinner before catching an early flight home tomorrow. I will be sure to do a detailed recap of everything soon, but first I’ll probably need to sleep for a week! #oldlady
Today, I’m doing something a little different and sharing a big round-up of Instagram favorites from the last month. I like these everyday outfit shots because they are easy snaps out and about and don’t require getting all gussied up for a professional photo shoot. I hope they give you inspiration for your own wardrobe!
For fit reference, keep in mind I’m super short, just 5’1, about 105 pounds. I often wear petite or size down for the best fit for my frame, but I’m also busty (34D) with ‘athletic’ i.e. big legs, so that can be a challenging combo.

This little shift chambray dress is amazing! It’s a baby doll style and seriously adorable on!

These jeans are a designer splurge but worth every penny! I don’t know how they do it, but they make you look so super skinny and they make your legs look so long! Both of which are miracles for me at 5’1 with bigger thighs for my size. No wonder nearly 300 women gave them rave reviews!

We had an impromptu baseball practice on Friday night, so I changed out of my jeans and booties, into my ultra comfy tie-waist joggers. These have come in and out of stock, but are back now in several sizes so grab them now if you haven’t already!

similar Cardigan ⋅ Dress XS ⋅ Adjustable Y Necklace
This lightweight cardi that is similar to the old one I’m wearing here is perfect for that purpose. It’s still thin enough that you won’t be dying in warmer temps, but you’ll still get that layered effect. It comes in tons of colors, including black/white stripe with a hi/low hem.
This is another great lightweight sweater cardigan with the cutest ruffle hem. It’s nice and slim fitting through the waist with a darling ruffle at the end. It looks great buttoned or unbuttoned, and dresses up well with a pair of heels!

One of the first things I tried on and fell in love with was this cowl neck sweater tank and it’s also 40% off now. How cute is it with those blush pink sneaks?! I’m also smitten with these boyfriend jeans that came home with me. As much as I love my skinnies, a good boyfriend jean is a must have! They are super comfortable and I like that this pair isn’t too baggy, but still shows your shape. I’ve come to know and love this brand and I’m so happy they come in petite, no alterations needed!

The boys also take their football very seriously! This time of year it’s on nonstop, but I could take it or leave it. I do enjoy going to the game, but you won’t find me sitting around watching from beginning to end. Which is why I splurged on this sweatshirt that I plan to wear from now til eternity!

Thank you Hope!
Loved reading this post! I am obsessing over the red embroidery top and those leggings! Enjoy the rest of your trip!
I’ll recap it for you soon! Hope you’re having a great weekend Alexis!
I spend so much money on clothes since I found your blog… it’s just not fair! 😉 Seriously, I’m a curvier even shorter gal than you and so love following so I can see what works on women our height! Go busty short gals!
Totally! It can be hard to find clothes that flatter our body types, so I’m really glad my blog is helpful for you Michelle! Thanks so much for reading!
I just ordered and received the tie sleeve sweatshirt from Nordstrom. I love it and it fits well. I have one question. The tie sleeve are sewn in at the bottom of the wrist if this makes sense so when you tie them they are at the bottom(???) How do you tie them? The picture of you in it doesn’t look like that. Thanks so much.
Hi Gloria! So glad you love it! I just cuffed the sleeve! 🙂
Ok I just added 8 things to my shopping cart! And your iced coffee looks SO good in those pics!! What is your order?
Hi Megan! 😉 That iced coffee is Vietnamese Iced Coffee- it’s made with sweetened condensed milk- so good, but super strong and addicting! I realized I can’t drink it too late in the afternoon or I’ll be up all night!
Thank you for searching high and low to find the Naturalizer Marianne slip-on sneaker! They are so cute on you, I had to have them too!
