This weekend Abercrombie is having their massive bi-annual denim sale, with 25% off all denim and 15% of just about all the pieces else! In addition they reactivated my code AFJEAN for a stackable further 15% off (sadly I imagine this may solely be for US buyers).

I’m carrying: 24 Further Brief (27″ inseam)

That is in all probability A&F’s most viral denim fashion that’s present and flattering with out being too fashionable, IMO. The reduce is harking back to my favourite Levi’s ribcage jeans with a couple of variations (see my Levi’s evaluation here). The A&F has an everyday excessive rise, not as sky excessive because the Levi’s ribcage, and has a zipper fly as an alternative of a button fly on the Levi’s. Moreover, the thighs on this Abercrombie relaxed fashion is reduce just a bit bit slimmer than on my Levi’s. This can be a full size fashion so I take Further Brief to put on with flats, or I might do Brief for carrying with heels.

I noticed they’ve a more moderen Wide Leg style that I haven’t tried but however am interested by!

I additionally need to level out my favourite keeper these days – the cutest little sweater vest that’s mainly a heat climate model of the striped Emilie sweater jacket I put on non cease. The reduce of this vest is just a little looser and barely cropped in size, and is a light-weight/medium weight knit.

This can be a traditional full size straight reduce jean – not too free/large, not too slim. I obtained this fashion final yr, and have been gravitating extra towards the relaxed match (proven above) or the shorter ankle straight (proven beneath) when carrying flats or sneakers. I personally really feel that this full size straight fashion appears higher on me with a kitten heel or low ankle bootie for an extended and lean line.

I additionally had an opportunity to attempt on this cardigan jacket which may be very reminiscent to the J. Crew Emilie however didn’t preserve it. The 2 are fairly comparable fit-wise, although the AF is an artificial mix whereas the Emilie is 100% cotton. The AF knit is tremendous tender & easy to the contact, however I’m a cotton fan so between the 2 I might personally want the latter. And the Emilie simply got here out in a brand new stable cream colour that’s sure to be a spring staple!

I’m carrying: 24 Brief (24.5″ inseam)

These denims want no intro as they’ve been my most worn denim for over a yr now and the EP bestseller for all of 2023! Since these are already a cropped fashion, at 5 toes tall I want to get the Brief, not Further Brief. For the same possibility with extra washes in inventory, the Levi’s Wedgie Straight jeans in dimension 24 x 26 size match shut to those besides with a button fly and extra inflexible denim.

The “darkish” wash on this fashion is presently properly stocked in petite-friendly inseams.

My actual chunky cardigan pictured above is almost offered out and was changed with a cotton model. Because the unique cardigan was a reader favourite, I needed to attempt on the replace for comparability’s sake! See beneath for the cotton mix one – I like the brand new textured materials and the cardigan nonetheless has the identical free relaxed form with an much more petite-friendly cropped size. The sleeves on the cotton model are totally different although with a large chunky cuff (that I might not fold up yet one more time), so if in case you have shorter arms then this may match lengthy.
