Petite Review: Petite Friendly Brand- Love 21

I told myself I was going to limit buying more clothes from Forever 21 but I had a gift card that I had to use up and found this dress last weekend. This dress is from the Love 21 line which is supposed to run larger than the normal F21 sizes. I found this dress in an XS and the quality and fit looked promising.

Dress: Love 21 Belted scarf dress- size XS (similar HERE and HERE)
Shoes: Nine West Nude Pumps– size 5
I couldn’t believe how well this dress fit and the style is much more sophisticated than other F21 dresses. And because it came in an XS- the cut was petite friendly! And this dress is fully lined so you don’t have to worry about it being too thin or see-through. I’m not sure if you can tell but there is a bow that ties at the neck. At first- it reminded me of a flight attendent’s uniform or one of my old elementary teacher’s blouses. The only complaint is that the armholes are a tad large so therefore you have to be careful when wearing a bra.
The belt adds are really nice touch and actually fit my waist! I forgot to look for what type of material this is but it feels like silk- very soft against the skin.

 
The dress is a perfect length and very work appropriate.
Here’s the back of the dress so you can see how it lays and there are 3 buttons on the neck and a slit in the middle. And has a side zip.
I couldn’t find this exact dress so either it’s so new they haven’t added it online or it’s older and I was able to find it in store. But I was able to find some really nice work dresses below for everyone 🙂

  1. Cute! I like the neck detail… You have such a great figure… I wish I can find dresses off the rack that fit me like that!

  2. That dress looks amazing on you!! It could totally pass as being from a higher end shop like Black House White Market (the name is something like that.. I always forget hehe)! And I just love it with the nude pumps!

  3. OMG! That dress fits you perfectly! I love it! I would look like a 12-year old in all those polka dots, but you manage to look sophisticated and chic!
