Extra Puff Please

 Today we are back on the puff sleeve trend. I'm telling y'all I really can't decide if I like puff sleeves or the shacket more. 
I actually ordered Tuesday's shacket in the same order as this top.
I really wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered this. I didn't have high hopes, but it was around $10 so I figured why not. Well, it totally blew away my expectations. The only thing I didn't love is the bodice is a ribbed knit. I couldn't tell in the photos, but I honestly don't hate it. 
I actually wore this one night when we were in Asheville last month. I didn't originally have this outfit in mind, but I really love how it came together. I also really like the mom jeans with the boots. It's probably my new favorite outfit. It would make a good casual holiday outfit with a red lip and some hair clips. 
Let's talk sizing for a minute because I usually question sizing from this site.
I went with my normal size because I wanted it to be more on the fitted side. (I usually size up on sites like Shein and Amazon.) It's definitely snug but I just don't put it in the dryer. 












Top: Shein | Denim: Abercrombie | Boots: Old (similar here, here, & here) | Sunnies: Quay Australia | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff | Lips: MAC Lipliner in Soar with Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick Pillow Talk & Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb in Cake Shake 

I hope everyone has a great weekend. We have a SUPER busy day on Saturday. Sunday I am finally getting my house decorated for Christmas. I have to wait until at least the weekend before Thanksgiving because we get a real tree. 
Thanks for stopping by and checking out today's post!

Puff Sleeve

 The puff sleeve. 
I'm sure y'all have been seeing this trend EVERYWHERE! Sometimes you see a trend and you HATE it. Sometimes you see a trend and just need a little more time. And sometimes you see a trend and just immediately love it! That's how I felt about the puff sleeve. I honestly have been on board with this since I first saw it. 
This dress was actually the first piece I bought with a puff sleeve. (I've had it a couple months and I'm just getting around to sharing.) I thought I would get a top first to make sure I liked it on me, but when I saw this dress I just knew I had to have it.
I was also sold because I loved the linen material and neutral color. I paired it here with simple heels, but you could easily turn this into a fall outfit. I'm thinking sock booties and a leather or jean jacket. (Although you'll loose the sleeves when you put on a jacket.)
This dress is sold out so I have linked some other options for y'all.










Dress: Abercrombie (similar here, here, & here) | Shoes: Target | Bag: Tory Burch (similar option in similar color here) | Sunnies: Quay Australia | Lips: Stila Stay All Day Shimmer Liquid Lipstick in Miele

What are your thoughts on this trend? I'm always so curious what trends people are immediately drawn to and which ones take a little more time. 
This trend will definitely be here through the winter. (I just bought a cute mixed media sweater with puff sleeves.) Let me know if you give it a try!
