Hey guys! Hope you had a great weekend. We had a low key couple of days getting to hang out and re-coop. Madelyn and I spent a girl afternoon out and about shopping and enjoying a little Starbucks date. Her new-found love is a chocolate frappuccino ;) She loves being my little helper in the dressing room and I was thankful to have her, it can get lonely in there!
With their sale continuing, I wanted to share what I tried on at Loft. Be warned, there’s a lot! All the details of what I loved and others that I didn’t are below. I also note the size I had on as reference for you guys, since that’s the question I’m often asked. I’m 5’7″, typically an XS or S in their tops and 0 in their bottoms (which is a size down from my normal 2).

How adorable is this fringe sweater?! The colors work now but are soft enough to lead you into Spring as well.

This sweater was adorable. I loved the shape and fit. The cropped length keeps it from feeling too overwhelming of a sweater.

For those looking for a great cropped pant (think booties now and loafers/slides come Spring), you should try these! You’ll see them again in blue below.

The top is super cute. Cropped with an elastic waist and a v-back. Work appropriate but could switch to night with some skinny jeans.

Another great work look. There are mini hearts on the top that aren’t overwhelmingly Valentines Day.

How cute are those sleeves?! Wear it with jeans, a pencil skirt or any number of trousers. Oh, or black overalls! Oh my gosh, that would be adorable!

This blazer is perfect for Spring, but would wear well under your winter coat for now as it’s very light weight and not bulky at all.

Sweet and festive, this sweater easily goes from week to weekend. I tried on the S here and grey below in the XS, which I preferred.

The grey would have much more longevity in my closet!

These jeans were much cuter than I was expecting. The fit was so flattering and although I love the belt for certain outfits, I also appreciate that it’s removable.

I wasn’t very fond of the fit of either of these pieces. I would have needed to size up to a M in the sweater to get more sleeve length (they felt short in a way that made them look very off), but overall wasn’t really impressed.

You know when jeans feel good and when they don’t, and these just didn’t feel good. They weren’t flattering on my shape and I felt that the high-rise could have used another button so they didn’t look unproportional?

Another cute sweater. It wasn’t my favorite, but the color was very vibrant and beautiful in person.

Moving on to slightly more Spring-y pieces, these are the same pants as the black pair I’m wearing above. The blue is such a pretty shade and will pair well with so . many colors.

I love them paired with this pretty white top, the details add so much personality.

Here it is layered under the blazer. I love this color combo!

You know me and good basics, I loved this simple mock neck top. I love how simply chic it looks tucked into trousers, but you know I’ll throw it on with joggers and sneakers just as much!

I had seen this sweater online but when it caught my eye in store it was much more striking than I had expected. The colors are just beautiful and different from most of my more muted sweaters.

A great basic sweater, nice for work or weekend. Light weight which will easily take you through Spring.

On to some lounge because they do it so well! I love that Lou & Grey added these wide leg cozy pants to the mix. The same amazing material as their other joggers, but a nice style alternative.

This light weight sweatshirt is adorable, perfect for Valentine’s Day and beyond!
![](https://alovelyliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/IMG_0456-768x1024.jpg)
In all honesty, the color of this rich emerald green is what drew me to this set. The pieces can easily be worn separate, but what a great combo!
![](https://alovelyliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/IMG_0457-768x1024.jpg)
And speaking of great combos, how awesome is this rich yellow and green?! The sweater is so soft and has a slight high/low fit.

Cute, loose fitting v-neck sweatshirt that also comes in a few other colors. Great lounge piece with length for leggings.

One final basic, great alone to lounge around in on the weekends or to layer with as needed. Longer tunic length which is again great for leggings.
