Happy Friday!
I hope you had a great week. It was a big one for us with my big site re-launch and we also celebrated my MIL’s 60th birthday last night with close family at Irish Times! (A great Irish pub/restaurant in the western burbs, if you’re looking for reccos in the area!)
It was so much fun–after a minor hiccup of her barfing all over herself in the car and requiring us to stop at Target for a new outfit for her because, of course, I forgot to pack one 😜–we had a great night! June had the time of her life, being a big fan of restaurants, family parties, and especially her Nani! We are planning a low-key hight in tonight with pizza and a nice bottle of wine and I am very much looking forward to that!
Today I’m sharing some bestsellers from the past month! (Many of these, unsurprisingly, are from Madewell seeing as they had a big sale last month!) If you’ve been looking for some pieces to round out your wardrobe, I hope this is a good place to start!
March Bestsellers
1. Madewell frayed hem jeans:
I have been wearing these jeans nonstop since I got them! You can see I reviewed them here. They are super comfortable, have some stretch, so they will “break in” so to speak and stretch out a bit. I got size 26 which is my regular size and they do become a little roomy and super comfy, so if you prefer your jeans to be more fitted, you could size down! I think the raw hem adds more interest to any outfit and I especially love the juxtaposition they bring to more feminine pieces!
2. Gauzy button-front dress:
(Reviewed here!) This dress has more sizes available at Nordstrom! It was one of my favorite buys from the Madewell sale and such a versatile summer dress. It fully buttons down the front so it makes a really cute swim cover up too! It’s definitely roomy–if you don’t want it as loose as it fits me you should size down!
3. Madewell white wide leg jeans:
(Reviewed here!) I LOVE these jeans and they’re such great “in between” pants–they’re nicer than blue jeans if you’re going to say, a shower or an occasion where you want to dress a little more elevated. They are warm but feel springy and summery, so they’re perfect for April weather when it’s still cold but you want to feel springy! I took my normal size 26 and they do have some give!
4. Gauzy pull-on easy pants:
(Reviewed here!) These pants are sooo comfortable! Perfect for vacation and summer weather. You could totally pair them with a button up Oxford and some loafers and likely wear them to work as well! I love the super light gauzy fabric. (Which is the same fabric the above dress is made of!)
5. Freda Salvador Eda Sneakers:
My favorite warm-weather sneakers, no surprise here that they were a bestseller! Wore them constantly in Florida! They’re super comfy and slip on and off easily. I ordered my regular size (I am always an 8) but many of you went a half size down so just use your best judgement.
6. Madewell embroidered blouse:
Another super versatile pick! Wear it for work, for vacation, for a date night–there are lots of ways to dress it up or down. I love the pattern and embroidery details! I don’t have this personally so I can’t speak to sizing!
7. Sweater tank:
(Reviewed here!) Ordered this cropped sweater tank again, from the Madewell sale (reviewed/styled here). I know I will get a ton of wear out of it this summer! It’s cropped but not TOO cropped! I ordered my regular size small but if you prefer it more fitted you could go down.
8. Abercrombie ruffled maxi dress:
I saw this on Abercrombie’s site and thought it was such a great option for a summer wedding! Also comes in black–would especially be good postpartum (or even pregnant) as it has plenty of loose flowy material!
9. Madewell gauzy midi dress:
Similar to the button-front dress above, but in midi form! There are still a few sizes left in the black color!
