outfit inspiration & styling sessions
I’m thinking the weekly round-up may be weekly or bi-weekly, depending on how many photos I’ve posted on instagram. This post is from the last two weeks just because I’d rather be able to post about 6 outfits or so rather than only 3.
So here we go!
I am going to try to start doing a weekly or bi-weekly round-up of the outfits I wore (or posted) during the week here on my blog. I’d like to start writing more blog posts & utilizing this space a bit more so I’m going to start with that.
For this first post I’m going to go back a little more than a week just because this is the first post & I have a few outfits from previous weeks I’d like to share too.
Under each photo I will add a round-up of the items from commissionable links where you can shop any of the items if you’re interested!
I have collaborated with Sozy to put together 8 outfits with one comfy sweater. I am currently 23 weeks pregnant, so all of these outfits work with & without a baby bump for this time of year!
The sweater is the Ava Sweater from Sozy. Sozy stands for soft & cozy & they nailed it with this one– pretty sure it’s the softest thing I’ve ever put on my body! The sweater is drapey & comfy so it’s perfect for a baby bump or just when you want to be comfortable & cute.
I love Sozy because they are doing so many great things while offering comfy clothes! 10% of their profits supports survivors of sexual violence, they’re female founded, their clothing is made in the USA, they are consistently working towards being an even more sustainable brand, & of course, their clothing is amazing quality! What’s not to love?! You won’t be disappointed when you order from them!
Let’s jump right in to styling the Ava sweater!
Look #1: Ava Sweater, distressed skinny jeans, booties, & tote bag
this look is put together without overdoing it. I am wearing maternity jeans, but of course regular jeans would look just as great for this polished but simple look.
Look #2: Ava sweater, midi skirt, & booties
I LOVE a midi skirt with a cozy sweater so this look is checking all my boxes. A little tip for skirts &dresses in the winter: add stockings or tights and you’re good to go for extra warmth!
Look #3: Ava sweater, black skinny jeans, booties
Black skinnies always class up a look & it’s no different here. Again, I’m wearing maternity jeans, but for those of you who aren’t pregnant, regular jeans with an even more exaggerated front tuck would look perfect with this flowing sweater!
Look #4: Ava sweater, bodycon dress (or skirt!), booties & crossbody bag
This is one of my favorite looks with this sweater because it’s so unexpected, yet looks great. The long sleeves peeking out from under the sweater really pull the whole look together & bonus! keep you super warm. A crossbody bag just makes the look more casual & is, of course, functional.
Look #5: Ava sweater, straight leg jeans, & booties
Straight leg jeans add a casual & cool girl vibe to any outfit & I love that! These ones have distressing & are, you guessed it, maternity. I also love the raw hem as it makes the look even more interesting. For non-maternity, I love the idea of tucking the Ava sweater into regular jeans for a comfy yet composed look.
Look #6: Ava Sweater, mini skirt, & booties
This look may work better in the fall or spring if you live in a colder climate like I do, but it’s so cute I might just freeze to wear it! The oversized sweater with the flowing skirt looks perfectly boho. A tip: when it comes to oversized sweaters, roll your sleeves for a less overwhelming look on top!
Look #7: Ava sweater, leggings, & slippers
The softest & coziest look of all! You can’t get more comfortable than leggings (sweatpants would work too!) and this sweater is perfect for those. For going out I could add long boots or warm socks & comfy chelsea boots.
Look #8: Ava Sweater, flowing midi dress, & booties
To get this look I belted my dress & then tucked the sweater into the dress to make it look like a sweater/skirt combination. You can see the sleeves peeking out which makes the look more polished. I love the bright dress with the neutral sweater!
That concludes my styling session of the Ava sweater & after styling it so many ways, I would highly recommend it. It’s certainly a versatile piece & is so stunningly soft that I made my husband pet it when I received it in the mail–haha!
