A Small Try On Haul From Loft

I have a large try-on haul from Loft that I planned to show you today, but daylight savings time got in the way. So, instead of bringing it all to you at once, I’m showing a couple of looks today, and I’ll post the other outfits when I can hold my eyes open.

There is only one word to describe this Chambray Ruffle Flounce Dress, and that is adorable! This dress is so stinking cute, and to all you ladies who have been asking for a shorter dress – this one is for you.

I was pleasantly surprised when this dress arrived since it was so soft. Sometimes when you get chambray items, they can be heavy and stiff. This dress is lightweight and incredibly soft.

I’m not a big fan of large ruffles, but there are some ruffles that I love. The ruffles add romance and femininity to the dress, but it doesn’t look girlie. At my age, I want to look youthful but not girlie.

Here is a view from the back so you can see the length of the dress. I’m wearing a medium, and the dress fits me great.

I’ve been carrying this vegan leather tote bag for about a month, but I’ve never shown you the smaller bag that comes with it. I love this tote in the cognac color, but I also wanted a lighter beige, so I ordered another one you’ll see later in this post.

These Sam Edelman Sandals have been what I’m reaching for most lately. They look a little dressy, so I wear them anytime I want to wear a dress. These Sandals are the ones I like to wear when I want a casual look.

For my second look, I wanted to style a pair of wide-leg jeans with the favorite blazer I bought this year.

This blazer’s color, tweed material, and style are exactly to my taste. I plan to wear this blazer with white jeans, dark jeans, and dress pants. It will also look great with dresses, and I know I’ll get a lot of wear from it this spring and summer.

I ordered a couple of different sizes of this blazer, and I’m glad I did. The blazer seemed to run a little big to me, and I ended up keeping the size 8 instead of the 10.

I wore an Oversized Everyday Shirt under the blazer. This shirt was one I included in my Classic White Button Down Shirts for Women Over 50, and I love the relaxed fit. If you like a slimmer fit, you’ll want to size down. I’m wearing a medium.

I wanted to show you the size difference between the two woven totes I was styling. The beige tote is larger and has a tie string inside where you can tie the sides to create the pyramid look like below. The cognac tote’s handle is woven, which is a nice touch. Both totes have an extra pouch, and both are great neutrals that will go with everything.

Which look is your favorite? Also, which handbag do you like the best?
