Hello, loves!
It’s been a while, and while I didn’t want to make the jump for the longest time…. uhm OK, it’s been a year… I updated to the new version of WordPress! So you’ll maybe not see as big of a change as I do, but from the writer’s perspective, everything is new and confusing again 🤣
Anyway, what this post is actually about is my February Favorites, aka my most loved looks from last month. I even threw in a couple of fun ones at the bottom that I haven’t shared to IG yet!
Tell me which is your favorite look in the comments below!
Not the greatest quality pic, but I felt like a GODDESS in this ASOS gown. It JUST went on sale down to $71, but they have other colors like Sage, Blue, and a shorter version in Mauve, all perfect for Spring wedding guest options. I decided to bring down the slits a little bit, and I sewed them to stop right above the knee. Fair warning if you want the leg showing to be a little more modest. Also recommend fashion tape for the top!
I debated including this outfit, due to my recent (horrific) experience with Rent the Runway, but I was OBSESSED with this jacket, I kept it for a couple weeks and wore it multiple times, including when I went to purchase this necklace at Uncommon James. Which, by the way, if you’re in the Chicago area and are sleeping on this store, I would recommend heading there ASAP! So many gorgeous delicate gold pieces to choose from.
OK, but how cute was this dress for Valentine’s Day?! I partnered with Modcloth to share some of their collection for the holiday, and I think this was my favorite piece. I also showed off my mini bag find from Goodwill that I added a rhinestone lip pin to. Love a good thrifted find!
I took a while to hop on this jaguar sweater trend. I also ordered it non-Prime so it took over a month to get to me 😆 Thankfully, it’s now available with two day shipping so y’all don’t have to wait nearly as long. I wore it to social hour at Le Colonial, one of Gold Coast’s iconic spots.
Flashing back to the snowier times last month, my Michael Kors coat that I bought last spring has been coming in clutch for any days that dip down below 30 degrees. Also I wear the heck out of these fleece-lined leggings from Hue. I stocked up when they were on Amazon for $22 a pair!
Another look from Modcloth, this time in the most spring-tastic hues! The blouse was a bit oversized on me (1X), so it tucked perfectly in to the geometric print skirt. Paired with white ankle booties and a knit beret to add some of that vintage flair I love.
And now, for a couple of sneak peeks!
Another recent Amazon find, this top is SUPER soft, and I love the little crochet-like trim. I sized up to an XXL, because I wanted that breezy, oversized fit. It’s under $20 and I can see it in heavy rotation this spring/summer.
Last but not least, this outfit that is a mix of old and new! The bag is thrifted from Goodwill, the top from my most recent StitchFix, Lee Jeans from Amazon, and near decade-old ankle boots from Target.
That’s all, folks, my February Favorites!
I love doing these round-ups, because they show me what pieces/colors/styles I gravitated towards the most. I’m definitely ready to bring back springtime trends and hues, and fun detailing like pleats, trim, and embroidery.

Welcome back! We’ve missed you! My favorites are definitely 4 and 6! They are SO my style! Love them! But anything you wear is always so chic!
Kristin says
Ahh, thank you, Delia, you’re so sweet! Glad you liked the looks, those are a couple of my favorites too 😀
Jennifer Prince says
Modcloth has such cute pieces! I love them on you. Ahhhhh on a bad RTR experience. I’ve never tried them but want to.
Kristin says
Thank you, Jennifer! I agree, Modcloth has some adorable styles. I’m excited to try more from them, but LOVE the pieces I picked. I keep hearing more and more bad things about RTR unfortunately, including that they just laid off the entirety of their Denver office to avoid paying them paid time off or letting them work from home. So sad!
Stephanie says
Ummmm holy GODDESS in that stunning gown! I can’t get over how incredible you look with that high slit and plunge neckline. Seriously beautiful. And my other favorite is that cute babydoll tee. I love how perfect that is for spring!
Kristin says
Thank you so much, Stephanie! That gown was one of my favorite things I’ve worn in recent YEARS, so much so that I also bought it in the blue and aqua versions, AND the short versions in coral and mauve. I’m aware that I went overboard haha, but I’m obsessed!!
Lily says
