Dressing Room Diaries (September)

Hi, friends! I've got a bit of a different post for you today…..the start of something new. I hope to do this 1x per month. I adore fashion that doesn't break the budget!

Each month I'll bring you my favorites from the comforts of home or from the actual store dressing room. This month I went to Target. I haven't been there in years. I was so impressed with the quality and the pricing. I'll definitely be back. Below you'll find my Target finds as well as a few more that are budget friendly. 

I will be 51 in December. I finally found a plan that has taught me how to eat right and have lost weight. It's definitely a lifestyle plan. I've lost 14 pounds and feel great……..no shakes, drinks, pills or special foods. You can read about it here. 

I am typically a small or medium in tops and size 8 in bottoms. I am 5-6. 

If you are on Instagram, you can go check out my story Target highlights. There is actual video footage showing the items in the dressing room. 

This post contains affiliate links for your shopping convenience. If you order, it costs you nothing more. The company just pays me a small commission. 

fashion

Lace Detail Top | Pull On Denim (I size up) | Similar Sandals

The top is from Amazon. I've been eying it since the spring. I finally caved and ordered it in a size medium. It's a nice loose fit without being overly boxy. It comes in several colors including long sleeved options. I am so in love with it. As the weather cools, I'll throw on a cardigan or denim jacket. 

Fit Details:

Top – medium

Pull on Denim- I usually order up in Spanx to a large because I just can't stand suck you in tight, but adore Spanx! Spanx is so worth the extra cost. It lasts forever. I ordered these in a large back before losing some weight. I regret the large in these. I can still totally wear them, but they are a bit too loose in the legs, but again that's not a bad thing. They were a bit lose before losing weight so I should have bought my usual medium. I may end up selling these on Poshmark and ordering the medium. 

Also on OSH!  Affordable Snake Print Boots

fashion

I just adore the vintage details! I also have worn this with my leopard flats. 

fashion

Basic T-shirt in Medium | Similar Motto Leggings | Similar Leopard Slip-On Sneakers | Bracelets

This t-shirt from Walmart is perfect! I'm wearing a medium. It's NOT fitted which I like. It's got a nice rounded v-neck which isn't low cut.  I've had the motto leggings from Jane for a couple of years now. They are pull on style with a wide elastic waistband. Comfy running errands look! I picked up my leopard sneakers at Marshalls, but linked similar above. 

Fit Details:

T-shirt- size medium

Jane Motto Leggings – medium

fall outfit

Knit Tunic T-shirt | Pull on Denim (same as in first photo) | Similar Necklace | Bootie  | Rug | Similar Hello Mat | Similar Urns and HERE | Boxwood Faux Topiary | Similar Lanterns | Outdoor Faux Candles

This is my favorite Amazon fashion find to date I think. It sells out all the time. If your size and color is sold out, just click the button that says they will notify you when available. I am wearing a medium. It's a relaxed fit, but still gives you a shape. It comes in several colors and leggings appropriate. It's also a great layering piece for jackets and cardigans. 

Fit Details:

Tunic Top – size medium

Pull on Denim – large

fall outfit

Velour Sweater | Dark Denim Jeggings | Carmel Colored Flats | Leopard Belt

fall outfit

I can't wait for the cooler weather to roll in for fall. This sweater is so cozy and comfy!!! I love the length in that it's a bit different that I normally get. I tucked it in a bit in the front to show the leopard belt.  The shoes are Amazon brand. They are touch wide on me, but i just added an insert in the front which helped. For under $20 they are comfy! The jeans are a stretchy jegging. I've worn them all day and they do not lose their shape. They are a bit higher so you can bend over without showing anything! They have belt loops and a zipper! I could have also worn a medium in the sweater if I wanted a looser look or longer length. This outfit went home with me! The jeans were on sale for $22!!!

Also on OSH!  Suave Professionals® Sea Mineral Infusion

Fit Details:

Sweater – medium

jeggings – size 8 

flats- I ordered 1/2 size up for length based off of reviews. They were a bit wide, but corrected with an insert in the front. Love them!

fall outfit

Velour Cardigan | Jeans | Long Sleeve White T-shirt | Leopard Belt | Flats

fall outfit

This is a Levi's brand at Target in the jeans and I love them. They have slight distressing down the front which is slimming. They are true to size and not the dreaded low waist! The long-sleeved t-shirt is comfy and a bit more fitted. It's a little thin on its own, but perfect with a sweater or vest for fall. It's the perfect weight for layering. The sweater in a medium is too big. If they had it in a small, it would have gone home with me!   It's just so cozy. The color is a wonderful orangey rose. 

Fit Details:

Cardigan- medium was too large….needed a small

Jeans – size 8

t-shirt – size medium

fall outfit

Long Cardigan | t-shirt | Jeans | Leopard Belt | Flats

Same outfit as above, but with a different sweater. I am wearing the small and it's perfect. I am in love with oranges for fall!

fall outfit

Long Cardigan | Leggings | Turtleneck | Flats

This is the same cardigan as above, but with leggings! Leggings are a staple for me in the fall and winter!

Fit Details:

Long sweater – small

turtleneck – medium

leggings – medium

 

fall outift

Turtleneck | Leggings | Flats

Now, I would never wear this look on its own. These are 2 staples that are great for cooler months. This look can be paired with a cardigan, vest, jacket or open front blouse. All shoes would work as well depending on the look you are after. 

Also on OSH!  Spring Fashion - Coral Infusion

Fit Details:

Leggings – medium

turtleneck – medium

fall look

Leggings | Pancho | t-shirt

This pancho is so comfy and is one size! It's the perfect length for leggings. It would also look fabulous with the all black look above and a cute bootie. 

fall look

It's lightweight and not too bulky.

fall outfit

Leopard Coat | Leggings | Turtleneck | Flats

I am totally obsessed with all things animal print. This jacket is so fabulous. It's not a coat for warmth. It's more of a fashion piece, but here in the south….it will be just fine! Dressed up or down, I am going to get so much wear out of it!!! Fit Details:

Jacket- small

fall fashion pin

 

Have a wonderful weekend!

    I love the new Dressing Room Diaries! I appreciate that you are featuring clothing that is affordable and from “big-box” retailers. It’s refreshing to see outfits that fit my lifestyle and budget! I have my own version of the long t and pull-on jeans. My denim leggings and T are from the Utopia line from Hue and I found them at Sam’s Club for $16.99 and $9.99. I love how easy they are to wear (both wash and dry beautifully) and how I can change the look with jewelry or by adding a long cardigan.

      Thanks so very much!!! I have 2 pairs of the leggings from Sam’s!!! I bought the Hue leopard last year and about a month ago I got the snakeskin ones. I have other Hue leggings that I love….especially the denim.

      Thanks so very much!! I hope to do this 1x per month. Of course, I won’t be shopping like that. LOL! I’ll probably also be shopping my closet to show different outfits for inspiration.!

        I would love to have you shop your closet…and help give inspiration from what we all have. Also, I’m 5’7”” and 142 lbs….so viewing clothes on a person similar size…small to med tops ….6-8 bottoms is so helpful. BTW….my last name is also “LITTLE”….so many times people ask “how do you spell that?” My answer is always “ the opposite of big”….have a great day Christy, will be looking forward to your next post????

Thanks so much for all the comments and suggestion Thanks so much for all the comments and suggestions about my back yesterday. I did absolutely nothing and rested it. I slept better last night, and it's much better today. Last year on this very day, I posted our winter mantel. I loved this look. We enjoyed it so much throughout January. Keep on using your fresh greenery and twinkle lights if it makes you happy! Going through old ideas has me inspired to spruce up our mantel. Sadly, I haven't really done anything to it since Christmas. I went straight from putting up Christmas to painting the mudroom! Have a cozy evening! Visit the blog with the link in bio @oursouthernhome Just type in WINTER MANTEL in the search bar.

This New thrift store makeover post almost didn’ This New thrift store makeover post almost didn’t happen! It’s the first one of the new year! I was 1/2 way through the project while simultaneously painting the mud room cabinets. Down on the floor painting lower cabinets and twisted a certain way which did something to my lower back/hip. Ugh!!!! I got it done with the help of @ashlyn_little ⭐️ I couldn’t sleep and currently on heating pad. I’m going to be useless today! Any remedy ideas? I’ve got to get back to painting! I can’t take things in disarray. Lol! I’ll be working on the laptop in bed today I guess and checking out the other projects from my blogging friends! Link in bio and stories to the blog post!

Happy New Year & Wednesday friends! @bentleywestie Happy New Year & Wednesday friends! @bentleywestie  here! My grandma has taken a little break from social media and the blog to enjoy time with us before Woods and Ashlyn started classes back at Clemson. Personally...I’m ready to see her get out of sweats and put some makeup on! She did finally get all the Christmas packed away. With the tree gone, I’ve got my other bed back in the den! I think she’s coming off a sugar high. She mentioned that all the Hershey kisses were gone. Oh, well! Things are getting back to normal around here! Maybe they’ll get me a haircut!

I’ve been wanting a pair of sequin pants FOREVER I’ve been wanting a pair of sequin pants FOREVER! I wore them for the first time out Saturday night for our anniversary dinner! @lovechicos Now I want to wear them all the time! They are so comfy, stretchy, lightweight and just freaking fabulous! ❤️ Paired them with a sweater from @amazonfashion so it toned the look down a bit. I felt dressy casual. I’m also going to be wearing them with a white sweatshirt and tennis shoes! Life is too short.....So wear the sequins! Follow me on the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app to get the product details for this look and others http://liketk.it/34KjY #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKNewYear #StayHomeWithLTK

You’ll find me here all day in pajamas. That’s You’ll find me here all day in pajamas. That’s right! I’m not doing a darn thing today. I always lounge the day after Christmas to recoup after days of cooking. After Christmas is when I can finally relax a bit and enjoy the beauty of the season. I finally watched Little Women this morning and loved. Now I’m watching season 2 of Virgin River. How are you spending your Saturday? I’ll be getting dressed later this evening for our anniversary dinner. #31years tomorrow! 🥂

Today is the BIG 52! Gulp! It’s been a cozy Chri Today is the BIG 52! Gulp! It’s been a cozy Christmas Eve Birthday with my family. I’ll admit, it’s been a busy day of chores, but it’s been extra special because the kids are both home with us. Hunkering in for the evening. Here’s a tip when you’re wanting to feel put together at home. @spanx faux leather leggings work dressed up or down! Add a pair of @isotoner.us ballet slippers and you can fake a ballet flat at home! Over the knee boots and scarf are Amazon finds. I’ll be linking the look in the #liketoknowit app soon. Merry Christmas Eve!
