Several months ago I was approached by a clothing brand I wasn’t familiar with and decided at that time to pass up the opportunity. Well fast forward and quite a few of the bloggers I follow were doing posts for them, and they contacted me again, so I decided to give it a shot.
So just who is this new company? Ethyl Clothing. Have you heard of them? Well it turns out they really aren’t new at all. The company was formed in Seattle, WA by Kathy and Alan Shultz, and they have been in business for 30+ years. Today they create a beautiful missy fit line that is vanity sized, one size larger than a standard fit. They set a high standard for the company and strive to provide exceptional customer service to their customers. They offer free shipping on orders over $99 and a prepaid postage returnin every package that allows you to return any items you are not satisfied with.
*Disclosure: I was provided these items in return for sharing them on my blog, but all thoughts and opinions are my own.
So when I started looking at the website my first impression was that the target audience is probably a little older than I am, but I still saw several things that I felt I’d enjoy. I chose this tunic (the Anne), which is also available in several other colors. I’m afraid the black may already be sold out because I can’t find it on the website. After looking at the sizing charts, I stuck with my normal size top and ordered down one size for the jeans. I think I could have gone with the extra-small tunic, but I’d prefer the small to allow for a little extra length.
It has a cowl neck that is not overpowering like some cowl necks can be. The fabric is light weight sweater material, and extremely soft making it very comfortable. There are also two pockets on the front that don’t show up well in the pictures but make for a nice detail. I have a feeling this will be a go to for me when I’m traveling and will also pair beautifully with leggings due to the length and slits on the side that allow it to hang nicely.
The jeans are the Catherine – Hawaii. Two of my favorite things. LOL. Katie’s name is really Katherine and of course it’s no secret that after our trip to Hawaii last October (I can’t believe it’s been a year) I am officially bitten by the Hawaii bug and ready to go back. They are a pull on style, and I was hesitant about that but they make for a great silhouette under a tunic like this, and I was really pleasantly surprised by how nice the waist band was designed and that they have actual functioning pockets.
I of course added some of my favorite accessories to finish off the look.
Check out the Ethyl site and see what they have to offer. They offer a wide variety of tops, jeans, pants and jackets and don’t forget there’s free shipping and returns on orders over $99.

Girl, I’m always up for another trip to Hawaii! I was begging Wayne to take me back to Maui just last week! Love the tunic! Headed over to the website now! Looking good, Mama!!
Thanks friend! Me too! Maybe that’s where we should all go next. LOL Praying for safety and good memories to be made today. That’s a long dern ride. You’re an awesome mama!!! XO
You are going to get a ton of wear out of that cowl neck tunic - I love that it has pockets to keep your hands warm. With all the traveling you do it will be a great travel piece and bonus that it's so soft. The jeans really photographed well - the wash is nice and they look great with your cute shoes. Of course I am a huge fan of that hair - you look like a 20 something! You are rockin' this look girlfriend!

AW SHUCKS, you are too kind to me. Thanks. The jeans were a good wash and I really did like the waistband. Yes, I think I’ll wear the tar out of that tunic. Happy Hump Day!!! XO
I am a sucker for a cowl neck and make it tunic length and even better! I like their pieces and LOVE you in them! And I had to do a double take, I literally thought this was a throwback photo of your early 30’s, you look rock star AMAZING with your hair like that! Hugs!
OH MY GOSH…I could KISS you! You are so sweet. Thanks friend. XO
I really like the fit and wash of your jeans! They look really comfy and are completely stylish. That top looks so cozy for fall!

Thanks Ruth! They are really a nice pair of jeans. I know I’m going to wear that tunic so much.
Really love your choices! And I so miss my flats like that. :(
Thanks girl! There are some cute things on their site. What happened to your flats? I adore those shoes too.
That brand's new to me too. Love the sweater though, really cute and your hair looks great like that.

Hi Cheryl! Thanks so much for the sweet words and signing up. So happy you’re back in the blog world. Happy day! XO
Love everything about this outfit and you wear it well! I love a cowl neck and I have some jeans like that (not that brand) that I dearly love. Happy everything!
Thanks Lea! I know I’m going to enjoy the tunic a ton. The jeans are good too. Happy day to you! XO
These are really cute on you! I am glad you gave them a chance! My impression of the clothes were the same. Mostly they were for people a little older than me, but I still found some cute items. It looks like you did too!
Well once I saw you’d done it, I thought I’d give them a try. I really do love the tunic. Happy Friday! XO
Very cute!
Thanks Jaymie! XO
