My Mom and I Love This Buttery Soft Sweatshirt From Spanx

Posted by Lashay Rain on Monday, May 13, 2024

Despite the 30-year age gap between my mom and I, we have a lot of things in common. We both were born in March, love caramel apples in the fall, are obsessed with all things beauty, and look alike. While we both embrace sharing these things, there is one area where we clash: the clothing department. 

My mom dresses more modestly, while I love all things revealing and low-rise. I often challenge her to take more risks with her styling, but during the colder months, she’s a bit more at ease that I’m not so bare. You could say that we balance each other out. But as the weather gets colder, we both can agree that we want to be equally comfy and warm, which is why it’s no surprise that we both can’t get enough of Spanx’s AirEssentials Half-Zip Pullover Sweatshirt.

The zip-up even made Oprah's Favorite Things 2023 list, along with the matching wide-leg pants, further emphasizing how good the material is. But hurry, the shopper-loved style is selling out quick!

My mom and I couldn’t get over how lightweight and buttery soft the Spanx half-zip was while still being warm. The material features a four-way stretch with a quarter-zip closure and it has a cropped, oversized fit that makes it great for layering. We also like that the design of the collar sits higher up on the neck for added insulation on cooler days, and the fabric remains stretchy and soft after washing and drying. The half-zip comes in eight colors, three of which are new editions, including dark green, navy, light blue, white, and red in sizes XS through 3XL.

The zip-up style is super versatile and can be worn for a number of occasions. My mom has been styling her Spanx sweatshirt over a long-sleeved T-shirt with her coveted Spanx jeans and sneakers on casual days, but has also matched the pullover to her black trousers with loafers for a more polished look. I have been wearing it during my warm-up over my one-piece jumpsuits at the gym, and I love that it’s super breathable and doesn’t rub or scratch at my skin during my workouts. I have also styled it like my mom, draping it over my T-shirts for a more put-together vibe.
