Ok, so yes it's in the men's section, but I picked it up on a whim and I really like it. I sized down to a small, and it have this texture that's almost knitted, but still super thin, which makes it soft and soooo breathable. Like, no sweat spots und...

I have these in at least 4 colors. So versatile, soft fabric and the stretch is just right that you can braless, even with a bigger chest. I buy these in a medium.

Obsessed with the fabric! Not as fitted as the similar top i got from Amazon but it's perfect for its own purposes and a little better for elevating an outfit. A little longer than a typical crop, but as a bigger chested midsize girlie, I wouldn't co...

Hot take, I love low rise shorts. When it's hot out, I just don't need the extra fabric on my waist. If I'm just running errands or around my house, I don't care about how smooth my stomach looks. I just want to me comfortable. These fit the bill, ju...

I love a pair of peach/salmon shorts (technically these were Café Creme). Not everyone's cup of tea, but they scream summer to me. Been loving these and their mid rise waist.

This skirt has become a staple. Light weight, easy to dress up, or down. I also appreciate the slit isn't too high so you can easily wear spanks underneath if you want to. There is a similar skirt at Target in more colors being sold, but the band at ...

I was looking for something similar to the black skirt I got from Target and this is a good match! Lots of different colors. It is a little slimmer in the waist than the Target skirt I spend so much time in (both are a Large), but still like it a lot...

I got this in a medium and it is still pretty roomy. Its great for summer weather since it is so flowy and the pockets are an added plus! I like to knot the front since it is long.

Loved that the side ties let you raise the hips to feel sexy, but still have the midsection coverage

Not clothes, but a great product during the summer when you're trying to protect your skin and look sun-kissed.

These are an investment but I've really enjoyed them. Even having only one set of removable heels. The option to change to flats for walking or driving is so helpful!
The Sandal - Latte Leather + Block Heel Kit 4 Latte | Passion Footwear
 
Satterfield profile picture
These are incredibly comfortable so I can tell why they are so popular, and you can't beat the price. I wouldn't wear the light blue out for errands without careful consideration of my undergarments since the fabric is thin (which is nice in the summ...

Sunglasses are frankly something I will never invest a lot of money. I do not have a good track record of keeping them around. But they are a necessity. These are perfect for me. I love the shape and you get TWO pairs for super cheap. I honestly not ...
