Retro-Inspired Fall Fashion From Walmart

Comfortable and casual retro-inspired fall fashion favorites from Walmart!

This post is sponsored by Walmart.

It may be 90 degrees in Maryland, but the kids are returning to school, fall fashion is in stores, and cooler days are coming! 

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year.  The weather is mild, the air is crisp, and I can finally dress in comfortable jeans or leggings, a cozy sweater or hoodie, and work on furniture outside without dripping in sweat.  

I'm super hard on my clothes, so each year, I grab a few neutral fall fashion staples to replace ones covered in paint. 

To limit my spending, I prefer to buy clothes that I can mix and match and transition from day to night.

This year, Walmart has many new fall fashion arrivals with a fun retro feel.  They're perfect for layering and mixing and matching for multiple outfit ideas.  From comfortable leggings and shackets to retro-inspired shoes and jeans.  

I'm a hoodie junkie, but when I need to look a little more put together I love a good button-down cardigan sweater.  They're perfect for layering in the fall and the one from Walmart gives me total '90s vibes. 

As soon as I spotted these wide-leg jeans I had to have them! 

The front seam and the slightly flared wide leg caught my eye and gave them a retro vibe.  They pair well with platform sneakers and a plaid button-down shacket or waffle weave pullover. 

I love these retro-inspired wardrobe favorites and how they fit effortlessly with my love for vintage!

Comfortable and Casual Summer Wardrobe Staples

Classic, comfortable, and neutral summer wardrobe staples from Walmart! 

This post is sponsored by Walmart.

Do you ever look into your closet and realize your wardrobe matches your home decor? 

It should be no surprise that I dress just like I decorate my home.  

I immediately gravitate toward black, white, and neutrals whether I'm shopping for clothes or home decor.

This year, I was in need of a few summer wardrobe staples that were lightweight,  affordable, and stylish.  I headed to Walmart and quickly found exactly what I was looking for! 

The Free Assembly Crop Box Tee is classic, versatile, and the perfect wardrobe staple.  It comes in a variety of solid colors and stripes, is a flattering cropped length, and is made of 100% organic cotton. 

It's also perfect for pairing and layering under a denim jacket during cool summer evenings.

If you prefer a longer-length tee, the Time and Tru Crewneck Tee is a great alternative.  It's slightly thinner than the Free Assembly Crop Tee,  but a great lightweight top for summer.

Fit Tip: Runs a bit small, so you may want to size up

 

I generally prefer to wear loose-fitting, flowing linen pants during the summer and Walmart had some great options to choose from.  

I actually surprised myself and bought a pair of smocked waist linen pants and striped linen shorts.  They are both incredibly comfortable, lightweight and have pockets!  

Fit Tip: The linen pants and shorts run a little big.  Consider sizing down, especially if you are between sizes.

While I was in the shopping mood, I also grabbed a pair of Footbed Thong Sandals in my favorite leather color, cognac.  They're super comfortable and the perfect summer sandal that can be worn with pants, shorts, and dresses.

Fit Tip: They run slightly large. I'm normally a size 8 but bought a size 7 1/2.

Mix and Match Holiday Fashion

Stylish and affordable mix and match work-casual to semi-formal holiday attire for women!

Thank you to Walmart for sponsoring this post. 

It's sad that whenever I wear jeans my kids ask why I'm so dressed up.  I'm pretty sure that's a sign that I live a very comfortable and relaxed life ha. 

In my defense, I'm usually spending my days picking up or refinishing furniture, working on a project or doing computer work.  Who would want to wear anything other than leggings and a hoodie?

But with the holidays fast approaching and parties and gatherings in full swing, it was time to branch out from my normal super relaxed attire.   Between dinner with friends, work parties, concerts and holiday gatherings, adding a little holiday sparkle to my wardrobe was much needed.  

Thrift Store Upcycle: DIY Church Hymn Board

You know I love green, so when I spotted a sparkly sequin tank top at Walmart I had to buy one.  It's perfect for layering and can be dressed down with a cardigan, high-waisted jeans and black boots or dressed up with a fun pleated midi maxi skirt, suit jacket, and closed toe black pumps.  

Walmart makes it so easy to mix and match a variety of wardrobe staples to create fabulous holiday looks that are both stylish and budget-friendly.  Whether you want a casual work outfit or after work party dress, Walmart has everything you need!

Favorite Cozy Winter Loungewear

Cozy and casual loungewear that's stylish and comfortable! 

Thank you to Walmart for sponsoring today's post.

Happy Monday!  Did you have a good weekend?  I stayed home and lounged in comfy clothes pretty much all weekend and it was glorious!  I don't know about you, but having zero plans and doing nothing is my favorite way to spend a weekend. 

The shorter days and colder weather have been killing my motivation lately, so it was the perfect opportunity to stay home, get some things done around the house and dress in comfy loungewear all day long. 

I finally brought the Christmas bins in from the shed, binged a little Netflix, did some Christmas decorating, took a few naps and enjoyed a super low-key weekend.  It was amazing!

Hoodie / Joggers / Sneakers 

I tend to wear leggings if I'm working on furniture or have to run errands, but joggers are my go-to if I'm staying around the house.  They feel comfy and casual like pajama pants, but a little more appropriate if I have unexpected company.  I also find the loose and relaxed feeling of joggers more comfortable than leggings, especially if I don't have plans to leave the house.  

Walmart has a large variety of affordable and stylish joggers in different styles, textures and materials.  I prefer the thinner pajama-style joggers for around the house and thicker sweatpant-style joggers if I'm running errands.  Thankfully, Walmart has a large selection of styles both in-store and online. 

Black Joggers / Gray Joggers / White Joggers 

We keep our house a little on the cold side during the winter, which means I'm almost always pairing my joggers with a sweater or hoodie.  The athletic mock neck hoodie in Smoky Olive from Walmart quickly became a new favorite.  It's lightweight, has a flattering crisscross hem at the waist and thumb holes! 

I don't like wearing socks around the house, BUT you will find me in slippers or comfy shoes.  The high-top faux shearling sneakers from Walmart were ideal for running back and forth from the shed and garage to the house.  The zip side makes them super easy to slip on, the faux shearling cuff keeps my ankles warm and the memory foam sole provides extra cushion and comfort. 

It was the perfect cozy winter outfit to wear around the house and even out to the grocery store later in the day.

Mix and Match Cozy Winter Neutrals

Warm and cozy winter neutrals that are perfect for layering, mixing and matching!  

Thank you to Walmart for sponsoring today's post. 

The unseasonably warm weather in Maryland is beginning to turn and it's finally starting to feel like fall. 

The leaves have fallen, the days are shorter and leggings and sweatshirts are my wardrobe staples. 

Many of you know that I'm self-employed and work from home.  On any given day, I can be home doing computer work, decorating or working on DIY projects, refinishing, painting and updating furniture or driving around town thrifting, picking and doing auction pick-ups.  I never know what each day will bring and I kind of fly by the seat of my pants.  

I may not know what I'll be doing from day to day, but I'm always prepared in how I dress.  Casual and comfortable is my go-to, which transitions perfectly from hauling and sanding furniture to running errands.  Most days, you'll find me in a classic pair of jeans or comfy black leggings, a cozy sweater or hoodie and a great pair of shoes or boots. 

Sweater / Boots

I'm no fashionista and 100% gravitate towards clothes that 1. mimic my home and decorating style and 2. easily transition from work (sanding, cleaning, painting and hauling furniture) to play. 

Thankfully, Walmart has been such a great source for stylish and affordable neutrals that I can easily and effortlessly mix and match (and replace when I cover them in paint 😜).   Walmart has a wide variety of styles and colors to appeal to and complement every fashion style. 

Sweater / Boots 

Just like with my home decor, I like to buy neutral clothing that I can rotate and mix and match to create different styles and looks. 

Thanks to Walmart, I pulled together six different looks using seven stylish and neutral wardrobe staples.
