Cardi-Coat | Swing Dress | Tights | Booties (similar)

I can’t resist a great deal so when Old Navy was having their friends and family sale over the weekend I couldn’t resist taking advantage of a great opportunity to not only add a few more pieces to my collection of clothes that seem to shrink for number of items that fit my new smaller size (not that I’m complaining), but, a few items for my family as well!  I had a vision of what items I was going to scoop up to include outfits for the four of us for our Christmas card this year.

I fell in love with this Cardi-Coat (I like to call it a coatigan).  It’s super soft, not too heavy, and is super warm without being bulky like a normal coat would be.  Plus it has pockets which is huge for me!  You can dress it up or down and is very appropriate for those of us that have office based jobs that tend to get a little chilly during the work day.  I would legit wear it every single day if I could!

I have been loving dresses lately and honestly I feel that a swing dress is super flattering no matter what your size.  This dress is incredibly soft, perfect for the holidays coming up if you prefer to shy away from brighter reds, is a great length (I’m 5’2″ for reference), and has long sleeves to keep you warmer during the colder months.

Did you shop the friends and family sale over the weekend?  What were some of your favorite finds?
