Hi friends! We made it to Friday, which always feels amazing! This week I was focusing on waking up early again and I think I’m back in the groove. A couple times I even woke up before my 5:30 am alarm. I definitely don’t lean towards being a morning person, but it’s the only chance I have for some quiet, alone time before the kids wake up and it’s GO time, so I really cherish it!
This week was a fun one on the blog with Valentine’s Day decor (y’all are loving these faux peonies that are only $10 a bunch and on PRIME! The new Spring styles at Nordstrom are good too. (this bodysuit was your fave, and the floral maxi was tied with the adorable romper).
YOUR TOP 5 AMAZON FAVES
Today it’s time for another Amazon fashion post. If you’re new here, first of all, welcome! I’m so happy you’re here. I do these Amazon fashion posts every other Friday and then do a live try-on on Stories so you can see the pieces ‘in person’.
If you want to see all the things I’m ordering and what I recommend, check out my Amazon Storefront. I update it almost daily!
Before we jump into today’s post, here are your faves from my last Amazon post.
#5 – Waffle Knot Top • Some of the waffle knit tops I’ve tried on haven’t felt very good on, but this one feels great. It’s got a bit of weight to it and has a front twist. It comes in several colors- the red is really pretty!
#4 – Daily Ritual Skinny Jeans • For the second week in a row, these go-to skinny jeans made the Top 5. I seriously live in these. They are a mid-rise jean with a good bit of stretch that fit your body amazingly well without pinching or pulling.
#3 – Star Sweater • I’m crazy for this one too! Perfectly slouchy chic.
#2 – Striped Sweater • Yep, we all still love a good striped sweater. I really like the color combo on this one!
#1 – Ponte Legging • These are #1 two weeks in a row! The awesome thing about these leggings is that they fit like a pant with a nice thickness to them and not so super skintight like most leggings. They are very opaque and comfortable at a great price – only $18!
I can’t wait to see what your faves are from this post! And I’m always open to hearing what you want me to search for next. Just leave me a comment and let me know!
AMAZON FASHION
For Size Reference: I’m a shorty (5’1) and petite, weighing about 110. I typically wear size 0p/25 jeans, XS or XSP in tops and dresses. Lots of times the smallest size on Amazon is a Small, so in that case, that’s what I ordered.
Camisole • Grey Jeans • Similar Heels • Belt
Two thumbs up for these grey skinny jeans! Grey jeans often get overlooked in lieu of blue, black or white, but they are so versatile and a great addition to your wardrobe. This pair fits great and is super slimming with a high rise and the perfect shade of grey.
I like wearing grey with all the neutrals, but they look great with color too, especially pink!
Jeans Fit : TTS, wearing 0Short
I’ve been looking for a good cami on Amazon for awhile now. In the past, there were several “misses” but this one is a HIT! It’s not too big for us petite gals, the quality is nice and it feels so silky soft on. Plus, the lace trim is pretty and even the white is opaque.
Camisole fit: I’m wearing an XS
Of course, you can wear a cami alone, but it also looks nice peeking out from a sweater or cardigan. This cardigan has lots of stretch and wide sleeves.
Sweater fit: I’m wearing a Small, prefer XS. It looks better on the model.
Sweater • Jeans • Similar Booties
This sweater was so much better in person than I expected. It’s quality that you would expect to find at a department store with an easy-to-wear style. It’s fitted at the waist with a banded hem, and dolman style sleeves.
Sweater Fit: It comes in one size
Stripe Top • Vest • Jeans • Similar Belt
With Houston weather, we’ll take a puffer vest in every color. I really liked the matte black zipper on this black quilted vest – so chic!
The striped top is an oldie but goodie that I’ve had in my closet for a long time. It never gets old!
Vest Fit: I’m wearing an XS
Vest • Leggings • Tunic Sweatshirt • Leopard Sneakers
The vest also looks great in grey and is perfect for weekend errands with the ponte leggings and leopard sneakers.
Sneakers Fit : These run large, so I size down 1 full size. Some sizes take longer to ship, but mine arrived in 5 days.
This sweatshirt is oh so soft and cozy. It also has a little side slit that makes it more unique. I’m also crazy for the soft blue color.
Sweatshirt • Ponte Leggings • Jeans • Leopard Sneakers
Sweatshirt Fit: I’m wearing an XS
Fleece Pullover • Jeans • Sneakers
More fleece pullovers! But this one is EXTRA with the pop of leopard on top! How fun is that?! I wore it earlier this week- our weather has been so cold and rainy!
Pullover Fit: I’m wearing a size Small
I’m so much happier with my Golden Goose dupe sneakers now that I sized down half. They fit me much better now.
I thought of Ali-Shaun when I tried on this sweater – she loves those sleeve details. This sweater also comes in yellow, green, black and red.
Sweater Fit: I’m wearing a Small
This top reminded me of a Lucky Brand or Free People brand with the style and petite embroidery. It’s got cute little buttons at the chest and on the sleeve. It comes in several colors too.
Top Fit: I’m wearing a Small (normally XS)
Turtleneck • Jeans • Belt • Heels
I like how classy and elegant this turtleneck top looks. It’s slim enough to wear as a layering piece, but thick enough to wear on its own.
I’m wearing it with my Amazon skinny jeans, but you could also dress it up for work with slacks or a skirt.
Turtleneck Fit: I’m wearing a Small
Turtleneck • Paperbag Waist Pants • Heels
I’m always happy when I find more tops I can wear with my paperbag waist pants. These are so comfortable!
Top • Paperbag Waist Pants • Heels
This lace top is lovely for a night out and still looks chic and sophisticated. It’s lined on the bottom, so you won’t need to wear a cami underneath.
Top Fit: I’m wearing a Small
Cardigan • Camisole • Jeans • Booties
I really liked how this lightweight, stretchy cardigan draped. It’s almost like a t-shirt material, so just a little layer to keep the chill off and dress up your outfit.
Cardigan Fit: I’m wearing a Small
Sherpa Jacket • Stripe Top • Jeans • Sneakers
I’ve read so many great reviews about this sherpa jacket that I finally had to try it for myself. It almost feels like you’re wearing a thick, cozy robe. It would definitely be something you could cuddle up in at a football game. It’s got pockets, a hoodie and cuffled sleeves.
Jacket Fit: I’m wearing a size XS

ACTIVE WEAR
It’s been a slow start to the January fitness game, but I’m back at it! Below are some activewear pieces that are great for working out or athleisure.
See more of my activewear faves here.
Under Armor Sports Bra • Lightweight Jogger Pants • Tank • Leopard Sneakers
I’m sooo happy to see my favorite Under Armour sports bras on Amazon! These are what I always wear for low impact workouts and all of my Get Fit Done workouts. They last forever (even with machine washing) and the cut is really nice. I always feel like I can breathe in them, while keeping the girls put. ?
BRA FIT : I’m wear size Medium (I’m 34D) in both
The crop joggers are so easy for grocery runs, weekend errands or going to and from the gym. They are nice and lightweight, moisture wicking, with a comfortable elastic waist and zip side pockets.
Jogger Fit: I’m wearing an XS
The tank is designed for sweaty workouts with a tech mesh fabric that wicks sweat away and helps keep you cool. They are a great basic tank for any kind of workout. 2 for just $18.
Tank Fit : I’m wearing size X-Small
Under Armour Crossback Sports Bra • Under Armour Light Blue Sports Bra
The crossback style has a nice, thicker shoulder strap that criss crosses in the back with a keyhole middle. It also comes with removable bra cups.
The sold blue one is a racerback style.
BRA FIT : I’m wear size Medium (I’m 34D) in both
Long Joggers • Top • Leopard Sneakers
These long joggers are a HIT! They are a thicker sweatshirt material that I didn’t want to take off! They have a cute ankle cuff, comfortable elastic waist, side pockets and a single back pocket. You could definitely run around in these as easily as you could lounge around at home!
Long Joggers Fit: I’m wearing an XS
I’m so happy I stumbled on these. They are giving my VERY FAVORITE SEAMLESS UNDIES from Nordstrom a run for their money. I like this style because they don’t give you panty lines, and they also stay put. Only $13 for a set of 4!
Undies Fit : I ordered a Small and they were a bit too large. My Nordstrom pair are one size and fit perfectly.
DRESSES
I shared this dress with you last week in the red/white version, but I’m loving the green for Spring! It’s so pretty in person and great for work to weekend.
I’m wearing them with the clear heels I’m crazy for! I know they aren’t for everyone, but they give you legs for days! Beware: they are on the tall side.
Heels Fit : TTS
Dress Fit: I’m wearing a Small
This dress is a MISS, unless you wear a slip underneath. Otherwise, I thought it was darling!
Now this is a good one! It looks like separates, but is one piece that zips on the side. The striped tank is a more lightweight fabric, and the skirt is a heavier weight.
Dress Fit: I’m wearing a size Small, prefer XS
I love this dress! It’s super light and airy and I love the cut of the chest and easy silhouette! It even has pockets! Flirty and fun for sure!!
Dress Fit: I’m wearing a size Small, prefer XS
OMG, I love this dress too! Two big winners right at the end! This dress feels amazing on– kind of like a super soft sweatshirt. The cut is so flattering, without being too tight or body conscious. You can dress it up like I did with heels, or wear it more casually with flats or wedges. It comes in several colors and even a stripe.
Dress Fit: I’m wearing an XS

First, let me say I LOVE YOUR POSTS! I so look forward to them and have found so many amazing things!! Would you consider doing a post about your lipsticks? We have the same color hair and skin tone and I trust your opinion and your berry lipstick in your last post was on point!
I need to! I’ve done some in the past, but should probably update it. Lipsticks are tricky though because sometimes the color doesn’t come through exactly as it is in person. I do love my Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk.
So simple but loving that turtleneck sweater on you…..gorgeous!!
LOVE your choices every time! But this time…I just kept adding each item to my cart! Everything looks amazing on you! I live south of Houston so all of these items are perfect! Thank you!!
Yikes!! I just put ten of these items in my cart…..now I need to go back in and make some decisions!!! I have two sports bras, and need to decide on one, as well as two of the dresses (the last two) and need to decide on just one….goodness! I am a completely different size/height and age than you, so often things don’t look anywhere near as good on me as they don on you….but with the free shipping and returns….I keep trying!!!
I go through a lot to find the gems too! Thanks so much for being here Kim!
I love the dresses you found! What size are you wearing in the leopard Adidas sneakers? We wear the exact same size shoe, so knowing your specific size always helps me get sizing right:)
I’m wearing size 5 1/2 US, we are foot twins:)
Thank you for the sweater with the sleeve detail recommendation! I found one earlier this year just like it that I loved, but it was WAY too cropped. Also, I got the turtleneck you recommended a week ago and LOVE it. 🙂
Hello dear, I have the same adidas sneakers, but in base green. I think they are great, lightweight shoes that I found for 25€ (ha even more reason to like them). After few times I had them on, my feet were very sore – I checked reviews on the internet and I’m not the only one, maybe, because they are snuggly like socks hmm and they don’t support ankles that well – info for people who run a lot or do excessive excersice. Right know I love them, but at the beggining I wanted to throw them away ?
Mine are more for walking or light exercise. I love my Nike Flynit for running.
I must to confess I’m genuine envy about your fit and toned muscles, all outfits are amazing but I have my favorites: white sweater, black and white striped dress and green polka dot dress but all the items are great!!!
You’re too sweet! Hope your week is off to a great start Giulia!
Just started following your blog, Have absolutely fallen in love with your style and the Amazon finds! Would love to know where your jewelry comes from !! Thank you
Thank you so much Samantha! I typically wear Gorjana from Nordstrom, Victoria Emerson bracelets and lots from Amazon!
