Word on the street is that corduroy is trending this season, and I’m pretty excited about it. Cords are a great alternative to jeans for those of us who live a casual lifestyle, and the corduroy of 2018 is not the rigid fabric of the 1970s. The cords that are out now are extremely comfortable and figure flattering. I opted for a pair in my trusted skinny silhouette, but they come in every shape and style (and color) imaginable.
Good morning, friends! How is everyone??? Today’s post a long one so grab a second cup of coffee and get comfortable! I’ve got a weekend update, some house progress pictures to share with you, and my thoughts so far on FASTer Way to Fat Loss.
The most frequent questions I’m getting right now are about shoe and boot trends for fall 2018. Styles are definitely changing, and that can take some getting used to. Fortunately, fashion is very much “anything goes” these days, which is nice for those of us who have strict parameters around what we can and can’t wear, but there are definitely some styles that are more “of the moment,” and those are the ones we’ll talk about today.
The sales are kind of insane right now, so rather than my typical “what I wore” post, I’m going to share things I’ve worn that are on sale right now. This will be a mix of outfits I’ve posted on the blog and selfies I’ve shared on my Instagram and Facebook.
There was a time when we would only wear pastels in the spring and summer, and we put our white jeans and shoes away as soon as the Labor Day cookout was over, but those outdated fashion rules have been thrown by the wayside in recent years. It is perfectly acceptable to wear white and pastels in the fall and winter, and *gasp* sometimes I even wear them together!
September seems like a while back, but I thought it was too redundant to post this Top 10 post right after my 25 Days of Fall Fashion recap on Monday, so I wanted to wait a few days. I always love the monthly Top 10 posts, though, so I didn’t want to skip it. It’s helpful to me as I prepare future content to see what posts and products resonated most with you all, and I think it’s fun to share with you as well, so today I’m sharing my top ten posts and products from the month of September! I’m also adding a new feature at the end called What I Kept.
I wasn’t going to jump right back into outfit posts just yet, but when I saw this sweater selling out, I knew I better go ahead and post this rainy day outfit. I’m sharing my favorite raincoat, a new budget-friendly bag, and a cozy sweater that’s selling out fast!
Hi, I’m Jo-Lynne! I’m the girlfriend who keeps you in the know with the latest trends, the best sales, and wearable everyday outfits for the modern woman . . . because friends don't let friends wear mom jeans.
