Happy Monday! Hope you had a fantastic weekend! It’s no surprise I’m wearing mint and stripes again. There’s just something about this color combo that makes me happy. I wanted to share this skirt from Avery Lane Boutique that is identical to my Zappos one (see here and here).

On another note, here are some fitting room reviews from this past weekend:

Banana Republic piped lace sheath dress – size 00P (buy HERE)

I didn’t think anything of this dress when I saw it hanging on the rack but as soon as I tried it on, I fell in love. It’s gorgeous (even more so in real life) and the fit is just amazing. I love the classic silhouette and the delicate white/navy lace. I wasn’t sure of the taffeta banded waist but it works. It says the band is black online but it’s really navy. I would highly recommend this dress (buy here).

Banana Republic textured blue fit and flare dress – size 00P (buy here)

I tried this on for fun since it reminded me of my striped ponte version (see here). It fits me perfectly and I love the cobalt blue color. It has pockets and is super comfortable. I may consider picking it up when it goes on sale. Super cute and would recommend (buy here).

White House Black Market textured striped jacket {avail in petites} – size 00 (buy here)

I went to return my tweed bow jacket (see review here) and found this gem in the clearance section. Yeah I know what you are thinking..more stripes? I tried it on just to share with you and couldn’t believe how small the 00 regular was. Then I looked at the price and was like whoa! It was an additional 25% off sale items for a total of $52 (was ~~$160~~). That is a great deal especially for the quality. If you need a striped jacket, I would recommend (buy here). I’d suggest sizing up since this runs extra small.

White House Black Market tweed jacket {avail in petites} – size 00 (buy here)

This is very chanel-esque and much cuter in person. It runs bigger than the textured stripe jacket so I think it’s safe to order your normal size. This was also on sale for $74.99 (was ~~$170~~) after the additional 25% off. Very nice quality and would recommend (buy here).
