Shirt: J.Crew – size 0
Purse: Vintage navy leather (similar HERE or HERE)
J.Crew has been killing me with their sales lately. Both hubby and I are scoring some great deals. I’m becoming more and more in love with this store and it’s not great for my pocket book. I am finding that their perfect shirts {factory shirts included} fit me really well in 00P/XXS. The buttons don’t pucker in the front so no peek-a-boo show for ladies with a bigger bust – woo hoo! The navy polka dot shirt in XXS I got from the factory fits so well and has become a favorite. I’ve seen plaid almost everywhere in the fashion world and wanted a couple of pieces for myself but wanted the right plaid. I wanted something classic with classic colors that would stand the test of time – some are just down right un-attractive. I knew I wanted to add a cute plaid skirt and a couple of shirts to my wardrobe but it had to be the right pattern and colors.
I found this plaid shirt before going to dinner on NYE last week but it was a size 0. It fits okay but a 00 would be perfect. I was able to locate one and this one will be going to another petite. I heard from an SA in-store that the red phone won’t allow you to do a “we will find it” on sale items any longer. I didn’t believe her so I tried it myself and it’s true! I used to be able to do this on final/sale items but they have recently changed the rules? I did however manage to do a “we fill find it” for you via phone. Not sure what the discrepancy is but why would I be able to do it over a regular phone and not via the red phone in-store? Hum…
This vintage wool skirt was scored recently at Goodwill for $4.99. It’s 100% thick wool and very well made. I love the clean lines and silhouette. I had to take in the sides and hem but now it’s perfect. The waist was extra small which is one of the things I look for when thrifting. There’s a newer store that opened up that is very clean/organized and doesn’t have that infamous thrift store smell.
See Megan here styling it for NYE and Penny Pincher Fashion wearing it here. I am happy to say my plaid fix has been fulfilled. I have a vintage plaid skirt and two perfect shirts (black tartan and ivory tartan) and from J.Crew to add to my wardrobe.
**J.Crew is having an extra 30% off final sale items with code: STYLEFIND – my picks are: memo dress (see here), minnie pant in wool, majesty peacoat {select colors on sale}, boucle dress and dream v-neck sweater (XXS fits me well) **
Do you like plaid and what pieces do you own?
This is another truly charming outfit. Annie, this is a nice plaid shirt, but going with the ruffled top makes the look better. Of course, a pearl necklace, a stylish skirt, and some sweet pumps don’t hurt, either. Great outfit!

Glad you found your shirt in 00! It’s a very classic pattern and color for sure. I checked my closet and couldn’t find any plaid for me. My fiance has a lot of plaid though. I love plaid on him so much that he asked for plain shirts. lol

I love this shirt.. I have been looking for it everywhere and can’t find it. Did you already get rid of your size 0? I would love to buy it from you.
Hi Carmen! I did already sell it to another petite:( But I have good news…another reader has a sz 00 and is willing to sell hers if she finds a size 0. Do you need a 00?
