New top and recently new top! Both were thrifted this top. (Neither are in my finds yet.) Brand is Girl With Curves, Tanesha Aswathi’s now discontinued label. Her tops never seem to be cut any apparent waist shaping yet, they always fit me so, so well. I’ve thrifted and purchased several of her GWC items this year and last.

Photos 1-5: my new cream sleeveless sweater. It’s cool enough to wear in summer heat. Yet, I’m also looking forward to layering it over blouses in colder weather. It is tunic length, split hem, and is knit in a half fisherman rib stitch. My only wish is that the neckline was much higher, scoop, or v-neck. Crew necks have never been my fave or most flattering. Also wearing my new smaller Eloquii jeans! The waist did give with wear. Still a bit snug but I feel a lot better in them then the too-big size I had before.

Photos 6-9: oversized drop-shoulder sweater with my flares, leopard print coat, and wedge espadrilles I found on clearance for $1. Funny story: I recently tripped on an unseen piece of trash while wearing them at Walmart. I somehow, in split second, executed a perfect tuck and roll in front of Hubs, Son, and several onlookers. Most proud of myself for using my gymnastic training and walking away without bruise or embarrassment! And…People need to throw away their trash.

Photos 10-12: same drop shoulder sweater with one of my print blouses and flares. Pointy toe chocolate boots. We had a one day cold snap with snow and temps in the 30s F. I needed warmth. Ended up not going to church due to icy roads; so I wore my lovely outfit to drink coffee on the couch.
