Recent Fall Pickups
In this article, we will be discussing my recent fall pickups and reviewing the items I have purchased. Over the course of this season, I have been able to buy some new additions to my wardrobe thanks to my own earnings. While this is the first time I have made such purchases, I want to keep this article concise and focused on my most recent pickups. I will be discussing three items in this article, starting with the quilted linear jacket followed by the cotton linen shirts. Let's dive into the details of each item and how I have styled them.
First Item: Quilted Linear Jacket
The first item I want to talk about is the quilted linear jacket. This jacket caught my attention due to its unique design, featuring dice patches on the back. When I received the jacket, I was impressed by the overall quality and craftsmanship. However, there were a few aspects that did not meet my expectations.
Review of the Jacket
The quilted linear jacket has a distinctive quilted pattern and a pale pear chic color. The cuffs are long and strong, providing a stylish touch. The pockets are open and roomy, perfect for keeping your hands warm. However, the patches on the back of the jacket were not as luxurious as I had hoped. They were made of inexpensive material, giving the jacket more of a streetwear vibe rather than a high-end feel.
Styling the Jacket
While I had a clear vision of how I wanted to style this jacket, the fit turned out to be a bit disappointing. The jacket ended up fitting me too well, similar to a bomber jacket. This made it difficult to layer a hoodie underneath, as it would bunch up on the shoulders and not look flattering. Despite this setback, I improvised a few outfits to showcase the jacket's potential.
Second Item: Juicy Cotton Linen Shirts
Moving on to my next purchase, I want to discuss the two cotton linen shirts I bought. These shirts are from the brand Capital and feature intricate details that caught my eye.
Review of the Shirts
The cotton linen shirts are incredibly well-made and full of meticulous details. They have snap buttons, including a candy skull button, which adds a touch of uniqueness to the shirts. However, sizing became a challenge with these shirts. Despite checking the measurements, they ended up being smaller than I had anticipated. This led to a less-than-ideal fit.
Styling the Shirts
Despite the sizing issue, I experimented with different ways to style these shirts. I wanted a more casual, slightly grungy look, reminiscent of a flannel shirt. However, due to the sizing, I had to make some adjustments. Instead of wearing the shirts unbuttoned over a t-shirt, I had to button them up or layer them under a jacket. This compromised the original styling I had in mind.
Online Buying Challenges
These recent pickups have highlighted the challenges of online shopping. Despite being meticulous with measurements, there is always a risk of the items not fitting perfectly. It's important to consider these challenges before making a purchase. However, with some creativity and improvisation, it's still possible to make the most out of the items.
Final Thoughts
In conclusion, while there were some setbacks with the fit and styling of these recent pickups, I am overall satisfied with my purchases. The quilted linear jacket has a unique design and the cotton linen shirts are beautifully crafted. Despite the challenges, I have found ways to make these items work within my wardrobe. Online shopping may have its ups and downs, but with some perseverance and adaptability, I believe it's still possible to find great additions to one's wardrobe.
