Check out the new Spring arrivals for boys and for girls at Carter's - including my son's handsome gingham shirt and flat front chinos shown above! Carter's isn't just for little kids... they make kids clothes up to size 14!!! Yes! Plus you can combine in one cart with OshKosh (also sizes up to 14) to hit the $35+ threshold and get free shipping! Use code MORE4YOU at checkout today to save even more!

Today Carter's is also having a Buy-one-get-one-free swim sale!

We found the dress shirts and pants to both be true to size (Chase is shown wearing size 14.)



Since Chase is a huge Captain America fan, I also picked him up these adorable all-cotton PJs! I'd say they run a little small (cotton shrinks a bit when washed) so go up one size. Lots more comfy and cute jammies options on the site too!!!!

Check out what Carter's has for your little ones (or your bigger kids) today!

Just a quick post to tell you that some big Lilly Pulitzer sales are on right now!!! Check out both the Lilly Pulitzer site and Zappos. *Free shipping on both sites!!!* Also, Saks Fifth Avenue has both girls' markdown Lilly and women's Lilly on sale!!!

The Lilly site will be loading more amazing steals through tomorrow. So be sure to check back to see what gets added! Also, Zappos has free shipping and returns! (Some things are also marked down at Amazon, but the other two have the majority of the great deals.)

You can do a matching look with your daughter - girls' Lilly on Zappos and also on the Lilly site here. 

A few items you don't want to miss! My Essie top, above, fits true to size and is universally flattering. Also here. (Hat is from Eric Javitz, a splurge but totally worth it!!!) Flip flops are $24 here. And $19 here!!!

Tumblers and planners and hi-ball and lo-ball glasses, all $14.

Also I would encourage you to try the Lilly swimwear - on Zappos where it's returnable. More on the Lilly site here. Fits true to size, I am wearing a sz 4 here. It holds in all the right places and has good butt coverage. Unfortunately my exact suit is almost gone, but there are lots of others.

Sofía Jeans now available in store!

This post was sponsored by Walmart and contains affiliate links (I will receive a percentage of commission if you make a purchase through one of my links.) 

I was excited to find out that my favorite Sofía skinny jeans are now available in a longer length for taller people (as well as the regular length!) I love this style and have posted about them several times in the past - they are a true "skinny" jean right down to the ankle, fit well and fray around the hem as you wash them multiple times. Sofía jeans come in all sizes from 0 to 22 to fit lots of different body types!

In addition to being available in lots of styles online, Sofía jeans are now available in 250 Walmart stores nationwide! So you can try before you buy. Above are the Melissa flare style worn with this pretty Sofía Boho top (which also comes in a pretty pink) and these booties.

With the skinny Sofías I'm wearing this long cardigan (which is only $14 right now and would be great to wear to work!) this Scoop knit tank top and this glass bead necklace, (real glass - it's heavy!) with these booties.

I'd say everything here fits true to size (I am wearing either small or, in the jeans, size 4) except the black booties - those definitely run a half size big so size down and the tank - that runs a little small so you may want to size up (I am wearing M).

Carter's Year End Clearance and Cold Weather Clothes (for Sizes up to 14!!!)

This post was sponsored by Carter's and contains affiliate links (I will receive a percentage of commission if you make a purchase through one of my links.) 

Carter's isn't just for little kids... they make kids clothes up to size 14!!! Yes! Plus you can combine in one cart with OshKosh (also sizes up to 14) to hit the $35+ threshold and get free shipping! Right now Carter's has year-end clearance on, up to 70% off!!

My kids, both in size 14 now, are wearing these super soft, cozy fleece pants. (They come in smaller sizes too, look for the ones that just say 'Microfleece pants' here.) They are nice and thick, have pockets and the kids have been wearing them non-stop since they arrived! Only $7 right now!!! Alex (left) is wearing this cotton zip-front hoodie and this cute baseball style top. Chase is wearing this fleece "shark hoodie". So adorable AND so warm!!! Note that in the navy listing, for younger kids, there are other animals including a sloth and tiger. 

Below, Chase is wearing his warm fleece bear pjs. Note that these pjs run a little big. I'd say the other items featured here run true to size or slightly smaller than some other brands.

Check out all Carter's has to offer for clothes from newborn up to size 14!!!
