How to wear a draped slimming top

Slimming Top by Last Tango

Hello there! Ok, so I have to take a minute to talk about this slimming top by Last Tango. I can wear it during the day with jeans and it looks great. I am able to take it all fancy-like into the evening with a sweet pair of chandelier earrings, sparkly of course, and a great black legging.

Features of the Slimming TopLast Tango

First of all, the color! Can I get a heck yeah for this gorgeous jewel tone teal? Droooool. I love it. Next, the fabric is has a fantastic weight to it, with just enough stretch to feel awesome. Under the draping is a form fitting long sleeve top with ruched sides. This top holds in my mom tum, and it feels secure. If you have a mom tum you know what I mean. Then the drape. The drape hangs perfectly so that it covers the aforementioned mom tum. I’ve been in waaaaayyyy too many shirts that don’t do this for me. Raise your hand if you’ve had a mom-tum covering shirt make you look pregnant. *Raises hand*

Do you need this shirt in your life? Yeah, you do. So Contact Me and I’ll save you one, cause that what besties do!

Carhartt Women’s Rain Jacket Review

By

Description of Carhartt Women’s Shoreline Rain Jacket

The good:

  • Truly waterproof. This jacket sheds water wonderfully and the waterproof taped seams keeps you dry for hours.
  • It’s lightweight. Not too heavy, and I can easily toss a hoodie or something on under it.
  • My seriously favorite part is the storm cuff with thumbholes–but hey, I’m easily impressed!
  • The hood is detachable, which is bonus for me until I lose it.

My Personal Experience

Carhartt Women’s Shoreline Rain Jacket has been awesome. I often find Carhartt garments to run pretty big, and I don’t think this one does. I do like to wear a hoodie underneath it, so I sized up. Have I mentioned that I live in a house with wood heat? It’s a total pain, dragging in wood every day, but the heat from wood is the coziest. Anyhow, I wore my Cahartt Shoreline rain jacket out to the woodshed to my gathering, and my top half stayed dry as my aging skin (really, really dry.) My jeans, however, did not fare so well. Guess my next purchase will be the rainpant! I am also questioning why oh why we chose the shed at the bottom of the property to store our wood…

Carhartt JacketYou guys! This print is so dang cute. I feel like a million bucks when I wear this jacket. It’s adorable AND rugged, don’t you think? Just like me! I kid, I kid. I’m adorable, but not so rugged. Anywho, I look forward to using this thing all winter long.

And hey guys…this jacket makes a fantastic gift you the lady in your life!
