hey everybody I felt like I needed to change it up I was sick of the same
direction you guys were seeing so I just changed the part of my apartment that
you are seeing in this haul look at me being so clever anyway today's haul's
exciting because today's haul is from eloquii and I haven't done a haul from
that in like a very very long time and they had some amazing new pieces come
out as part of the Draper James and Eloquii collaboration and I just I
wanted to do it and I'm gonna actually open it for you guys on camera too
because that's like the fun part it's like what they call it an unboxing
could it be an unboxing so the first bag and this is a big bag let's open it up I always get like
such feelings of strength opening bags it's not actually like that hard to open
a bag but inside I feel special about it for some reason
oh the first dress has been making the rounds I've seen a lot of girls in it
and it's beautiful and I wanted to be beautiful in it too
so I got it it is this it's kind of like a poppy colored it's not quite a red
striped dress with black and white I think it could be navy but it looks
pretty black it has this amazing like crisscross and then it comes and ties in
the back if you see here it's got a back tie like so now what's interesting
about this is the way the ties are done is technically technically you could tie
it the other way but honestly that would take away there's a really fun front
detail it's just the cross detail one thing I'm a little bit surprised about
in opening this dress is that I actually thought it would be thicker and it's
actually a fairly lightweight dress which means it's gonna need tights or
something underneath it for the winner or it'd be great for layering but it
is not a thick Ponte knit fabric it's actually a very
lightweight stretch now it is lined in this white underneath so even though it is
a thin fabric it's not gonna be see-through which thank goodness and it
comes about maybe like mid midi-length it's a little bit longer as the arms
obviously full on so it's not short or anything and I like that the stripes
kind of continue out onto the arms versus going like up and down I feel
like up and down can be choppy it's not that makes you look bigger or smaller
it's just visually choppy this is more seamlessly visual and you can see that
the arms are see-through as you can see me do this behind it anyway I thought it
was just really cute I loved the detail and I wanted to give it a go
so I get why everybody's been rocking this dress because it's a stunner and
it's super comfortable I'm living for it I love it I'm actually like super excited
for this item I just love color I love color so much and I feel like sometimes
in winter it's harder to find like fun bright colors to wear you kind of get
stuck in this like dark moody color atmosphere so when I saw this I was like
okay it's like bright as hell and that is like my aesthetic it is this super
fun sweater with balloon sleeves and it is cropped so it's like a shorter
sweater and then giving you that volume in the sleeve I'm liking this trend that
I'm seeing of these cropped oversized sweaters I just think it's very 90s very
different and it takes a little play like these balloon sleeves they were
around last season but this season they're bigger and the sweaters that
they're accompanied with are definitely like cropped and oversized which is the
bomb this is just colorfully happy I love all the different colors in it just
so you can see all the different colors in it and I think with the pair of jeans
or even layered with like a dress over it like one of those little cute overall
dresses this is going to be such a fun staple it's also very soft it's not like
an itchy sweater it's made out of acrylic a hundred percent so this is a
non itch sweater it does have a wider neckline which
I find interesting because I thought it was gonna be crew because a lot of times
you see in crew or mock neck when you have the balloon sleeve just to kind of
play off of this but instead you've got actually kind of a wide neckline almost
a boat neck and it's just soft and comfy and I'm excited about it because it's so
damn colorful I super love the sweater it is so bright it's so bold it's a
little out there it's a little bit loud it's basically me in a sweater and I
love it I also love like just it's so
comfortable it literally doesn't even feel like I'm wearing anything which is
like magical in itself the next item I got is a pair of jeans and the reason I
got this pair of jeans is because it comes in a viola cut now if you're not
familiar with the viola cut it is something that eloquii launched a
couple years ago I actually was like the poster child for it when it launched
I was part of the original campaign but what it does and I'll show you actually
you'll see it on the denim itself is it as smaller at the waist and then gives
you extra room down at the hip and thigh region for me this is my ideal cut I
have not tried it in these jeans I've heard the peach fit jeans are great so I
just wanted to give it a go I wanted to try them out and see hey does this hold
up to the claims that they've said it's just a standard dark-wash skinny
nothing super exciting about it but it is exciting because of that fit as for
stretch I'm just pulling it here oh yeah so sexy the stretch is really strong on
these I just I'm just excited to have another pair of jeans I feel like in
fall I just turned into a pants monster I don't want to wear skirts because I
don't want to be cold so I just wear leggings and pants and trousers and
anything because I'm just like please for the love of all that's holy keep me
warm I feel like as I get older I get more and more cold I don't know how that
happens but for some reason like you slowly descend into like grandma age
where you just want to have a heated blanket on you and talk about what you
had for lunch and you know what I am I'm committing to it this fall screw it why
fight the inevitable granny-ization granny-ization is that a word
it's a word now in my world of my life I also like feel like this means I'm gonna
end up gambling in Atlantic City and getting a bunch of dogs I'm already
certain I got one so these are the peach fit denim they actually fit really well
my thoughts are they're a little bit of a heavier denim so maybe a little warm
for right now but will be like amazing when winter months come so just
something to know that they're like heavier weightier more heat
more heat between these thighs I mean what you get what I mean on to the second much bigger bag
Ah the struggle is real
first item itch the first item is another sweater cuz I love me some sweater weather it is
again a little bit of a crop here and it's a purple sweater this time with a
mock neck and again with a little bit of a balloon sleeve but not cuffs like we
saw on the other sweaters a little bit more unfinished this reminds me almost
of like a fisherman sweaters style as far as like how it's like sewn also its
weight is much heavier than the sweater we just looked at earlier in the haul
this is made of acrylic and nylon and that nylon is definitely adding a lot of
extra weight I will say this feels like it's going to be very warm but maybe not
as soft and comfy as the other sweater however this sweater's likely meant to
be worn in like Arctic tundra which means you're probably gonna have a shirt
underneath it in fact most sweaters you have are shirt underneath the other one
I wouldn't cuz the cuff sleeves and everything but this one I would actually
totally layer underneath and what I love about the sleeves here we got a little
bit of a drop sleeve here ie it goes out further and then gives you the sleeve is
that it will look really really cute because it doesn't have a cuff here with
like a t-shirt underneath it give me like an additional pop of color maybe
even something surprising like a neon or you know a contrasting color to purple
like orange so when I look at something like this it's exciting because I
there's a lot of possibilities for styling it does have a much higher
neck which honestly for cold weather stuff I really appreciate because when
you're walking in the city the air hits right here and I don't know if this happens
anyone else but I literally get like a red mark right here for most of the
winter of like wind burn and this is gonna sit high enough that's gonna
prevent that which I am grateful for this weird things I am now grateful for
thanks world I love the aesthetic of this it's so cozy but it's like tailored
at the waist preach I love this sweater that is me
singing its praises next opening this sucker up next we have what is this oh this is a really
cool dress and it's a very different fabric than I thought it was gonna be so
first let's talk about that it's a puff sleeve body con dress now I honestly
thought that this was going to be a more structured fabric eloquii uses a lot
a lot a lot of structured fabrics and so I was thinking there would be
like no stretch to this but no it is like very stretchy it's this kind of
wrinkly stretch crepe I don't know how to explain it can you kind of see it I'm
not sure it's interesting because it has a standard sleeve and then the puff
actually starts about midway down here so it's like accentuating this elbow
region you like my sexy elbows but really in this dress they would be sexy
elbows because that's where the balloon is gonna start and then comes down to an
elasticized end of that which I also like because this supports a variety of
different arm width sizes so if you have like you know bigger arms you're not
gonna be screwed by this you might be screwed in this but that's a different story
it's red it's sexy you might get some sue me for saying it it's got a nice
little hip curve built in here obviously with the nice body con so it's going
to come in at the waist and then come out you can style this up and down
you could wear it for work you can also easily take off a jacket and a belt and
all of a sudden have a hot little number for some drinks I just think it's a
super cute dress and feeling this fabric and how comfortable and how like much
it's gonna move with you and stretch with you you could wear this all day and
feel comfortable like not like anything's sometimes like business
clothes is stuffy right and you just feel like trapped in your clothes you're not
gonna feel that way in this dress girl so this dress is another babe alert for real yo
I also like the sleeves pushed up a little bit like they can come down
meh but I think they look cooler when they're like that so I wanted and I have
wanted a really fun button-down print shirt for a while just because when
you're layering and especially when a lot of your sweaters are solids you want
to have something that's like a little bit kooky to put underneath them to add
a little pop of fun so when I saw this button-down and eloquii kind of kills
the game in like quirky button-downs I always find them having like really
structured button-downs in like crazy prints I saw this penguin print and I
was like I cannot not get it it's got a fun just like look at that penguin we're
marching we're marching print comes down to just a standard dress shirt one
little detail they did changes rather than having a cuff you actually have an
athletic tipping here which actually makes this more stretchy that athletic
tipping is also used to make the collar so rather than your traditional like a
structured blouse collar you're getting that athletic ticking which also has a
little stretch to it so it's just a little interesting addition of an
athleisure note on a very structured garment overall it's really really you
know standard dress shirt it is made out of polyester but yeah it looks like a
standard dress shirt but it's in a crazy print and it's got some interesting
athleisure notes which I like it's exactly what I wanted I mean I like
quirk and I like mixing of trends maybe loosen up my buttons a little I'm a little
too straitlaced right now there we go but it's perfect it's exactly what I was
looking for so this dress comes from the Draper and James collection which is
their partnership with Reese Witherspoon so this is a long floral dress it is
mesh all the way through and then there's a lining in like below it that
adds coverage so you can see the lining here do you see where it starts the
sleeves itself are sheer all the way down they have a lot of extra room to
them and then they bunch down into an elastic cuff here no formal cuff on the
dress the dress also has a tie for the neck should you choose to wear it it is
not physically attached to the dress it is kind of just put on a little string
here I actually expected that tie to be physically attached
let's talk pros and cons when it is physically attached I feel it looks a
little bit more cohesive with the dress it stays in a better place and usually
it's more incorporated into the design so that's my pros of it being attached
the pros of it not being attached means you can take this tie out and wear it
around a dress shirt which I do a lot of time with some eloquii ties that I've had
before I feel like a little bow with a dress shirt is like a fun women's wear
style style of a tie so you can reuse it it's just just note that it's not
attached and that was a little surprising for me there's also a tie
here at the waist it's just a thin tie here again this is removable if you'd
want to likely I will take that off I don't like the waist tie all the time
I'd rather have like like it's like a committed tie I either want to belt or
like a thick tie or no tie and all the little tie it's just not me I'm just
not a little tie type of lady then it comes down to a whole bunch of tiered
ruffles 1 2 and 3 and these are just fun little additions they add
movement they add excitement to the dress itself overall I think it's a really
great color scheme for me and I'm excited it's got these little notes of
red in the flowers which you can play off of in other items so you could even
layer like a red cardigan with this or even fun red accessories
to kind of play up that tiny bit of red that's in here there's also some
nice green notes that you can do the same thing with like a bright kelly
green bag would look epic with this look so the lining fits goes over my hips
fits nice it's pulled all the way down this bottom ruffle though refuses to
play along so I'm actually not gonna turn around because it's it's it's a
it's a booty apocalypse in the back I mean the lining's down there so I guess
you can see you can see it's not that bad but it doesn't fit me so there's no
point in me like modeling the fit when you know it fits really great up here I
actually have some room and then here it just doesn't appreciate the booty in the
way I would so I'm a little bummed because I really like the dress but I
can't really wear it also from this Draper James collection is this
denim shirt now why did I get a denim shirt because here's the deal I realized
at denim days I did not have a good denim shirt and I wanted one I did size
up in this because I wanted it to be a little bit baggier I didn't want a fitted
denim shirt I wanted something that I could tie at the bottom or if I
tucked it in it would be like a little bit blousy it's kind of where I'm moving
in a little bit of my aesthetic because I like a little bit of a baggier top or
like a little bit more like room to it I like to get a have this nice girly
ruffle so it's not your traditional denim shirt and then it goes down to the
sleeves to just the standard cuff but again that feminine detail of the ruffle
is really what I'm here for and why I picked this shirt out
super-duper glad I sized up because I think I actually needed the extra room
in this particular shirt so yay but I actually think it's really cute it's
very comfortable which is surprising because I don't think I've had a denim
shirt that fits this well and is this comfortable and like a very long time
I am itching like crazy allergies have happened to me right up in my nose and my
eyes sometimes too cuz they itch a lot and that's driving me nuts okay so I got
these originally in a different size and then I reorderedd them in the right size
these are a pair of amazing plaid leggings but honestly they're so thick
they could be worn easily as pants I like them because they have this fun
ticking strap down the side the plaid itself is a mix of gray navy and
burgundy it's subtle enough that it could be a neutral this could be a black
pant in the way that you're thinking about outfits it also could be the
star of the look by pulling out one of the colors in the bottom of the pants
and making it a solid top it's up to you my friends it's up to you what you
do but these are comfortable and you can walk around and explore and feel
comfortable in them and that's what I plan to do in these pants in China
hopefully I think they're gonna make my bag honestly I'm having such a hard time
packing it's killing me but I got them for that reason I have purchased other
eloquii leggings and I cannot recommend them more they're different
right you have two types of leggings that exist you have your thinner
leggings that go well under dresses and then if your leggings that you literally
want to wear as pants and that's where eloquii's leggings really do shine
if you want to wear leggings as pants if you want something that feels like a
legging but it's like thick enough and structured enough to also be a pant ie
you don't have to wear something to cover your butt like you could wear just
a normal shirt with it and nobody's gonna like call you out on it that is
where I go for my leggings as pants set up eloquii has great leggings as pants so
as you can see here these pants totally work as pants well
they're leggings leggings as pants you can wear these leggings as pants is what
I'm trying to say
and our last item which is also from the Draper James collection and is one of
my favorite things and the whole haul cuz I just think it is so adorable
I don't know how to else to say it it is this fun little capelet coat
it's double-breasted and these are gold buttons so if I take them off you can
see shiny shiny shiny shiny which I'm here for they come down and these
unbutton so it can be worn open or closed depending on how you want to wear
it and comes down I wanna get this other button open and then it's just a lovely
kind of jacket what I like is it's a capelet that's not too constricting
because this is just an overlay and I feel like in the fall sometimes you
don't want a full jacket you want just like a little warmth around your body
which is what a capelet is perfect for I like that it ties shut as well it has this
nice little waist defining tie that comes up here so you can either button
it or tie it there's a couple of different ways you can style it and it's
just really well made and I thought it was adorable that's why I picked it guys
cuz it was adorable the color is just such a brilliant red this red is gonna
work on a lot of different people I think they call it poppy on their site
but it's definitely more of like a pinkish red in the lighter tone family
so this is gonna work for most skin tones which I also appreciate from this
design also here you're gonna have no arm problems because there is no tight
arm here it's very loose it's gonna allow you to have some flexibility and
then again the Cape just sits over the arm like that so it looks almost like
kind of like a big ruffle yeah that's the best way to say it but it's adorable
it's absolutely adorable and I'm so excited to style it I am like pumped
this is just such a cool piece like I look cooler wearing it and a like that I
can just do this after a couple drinks so thank you guys so much for watching
