James Perse ruched leggings | $87.50
Splendid heavy weight leggings | 47.60
Just a quick post to let you know of a few of my favorite things on sale at Shopbop, especially the Splendid heavy weight leggings. IF YOU DO NOT ALREADY HAVE A PAIR OF THESE, NOW IS THE TIME!! Seriously. They are sturdy and super-warm. Also, there’s more great James Perse on sale than I have mentioned here…
My thoughts:
Splendid heavy weight leggings – I have these in a small (they run big IMO) and have happily worn them for 3-4 years. Early on, my sister’s dog tore a small hole in them with his teeth, but I stitched it up and it hasn’t torn anymore after all the wear and washing. I LIVE in these when it’s cold, mostly at home, because they’re very long on me, and I don’t wear leggings much outside the house. They’re really great though, and totally worth it, especially on sale 🙂
James Perse ruched leggings – I don’t have these, but I’ve re-purchased 3-4 pairs of the “classic” JP leggings because they ARE MY FAVORITES. I am intrigued by the ruched leggings, and I think they would be great if you’re taller, for some interest at the hem.
James Perse long sleeve v-neck tee – I have had JP tees for nearly 10 years and always re-buy. Right now I wear a size 1 in this style. Why are they so great? They fit me perfectly – I have a short waist, and these aren’t too long on me, they hit me exactly where I want them to. The shoulders fit and the waist/hip ratio just works for my body. I have tried, and failed many times over, to find a better t-shirt than James Perse. It does not exist 😉
Oh, and happy halloween? Do you dress up? Do anything? It’s going to be rainy and cold here tonight, and anyway, we don’t have any candy, so I won’t even be welcoming trick-or-treaters. I’m no fun, I know LOL.
Tempted by the Splendid leggings (I scored a pair of Frye boots from eBay this summer and have been enjoying them with leggings).
Really like the sweater shown with the JP leggings!
I’ll be trick-or-treating with my son until one of us is way too cold then coming home to chicken/black bean/sweet potato chili that’s in the crock pot right now!
We stay in with the lights down low and the curtains closed! Haha! Halloween Scrooges.
We only get 2 kids anyway, and those are the little girls I used to babysit who are my neighbors. I always buy something special for them.
I love JP tees too. Ruched leggings look interesting but yup JP things tend to run longish for me.
Love the idea of fleece leggings! I just purchased a merino ponte legging from REI, which I’m taking to Seattle with me later this week. This would have been a nice option too.
I’m dressed up as a cat today, more specifically my cat, Sugar. She’s a tuxedo. I work at a museum where people are fun and spirited about dressing up, etc. We had a costume and decorating contests today.
I’m SO tempted by the JP long sleeved tee because I can’t seem to find an inexpensive long sleeve v-neck that fits correctly. Is it a relaxed fit? I generally wear a medium in the Everlane short sleeve v-neck because I like the extra room but the JP tee would mostly be for wearing under sweaters. I’m over-thinking this.
It is not relaxed fit in general. On me in the size one it is a “perfect” fit. If that makes sense lol. Size up if you want it to be more roomy. I’d be happy with a size 2 also honestly. There’s really minimal difference between the sizes. I tend to notice it in the shoulders and length mostly.
You’ve come to the right place for overthinking lol
Thank you! I have always been cheap when it comes to t-shirts but I feel like it might be time to invest a little.
