Three sets of sleeves I’m LOVING!! LES ALPES s Three sets of sleeves I’m LOVING!! 

LES ALPES sweater is so darn soft! It fits big, though, so I recommend sizing down! I’m wearing a medium.

The cream JOY sweater is adorable! Also wearing a medium here. This same style comes in gray with a bow instead of the word joy! 

This denim jacket is SO MUCH FUN! I’ve gotten so many compliments on it. It’s the coolest cut! I sized up to XL because I liked the loose fit. But that’s just my preference! 

Here’s the link >> https://liketk.it/5xDDw
