Lacy Peplum Top

Lacey peplum top (00p) // Ankle jeans // Ferragamo Vara pumps

This is the same top as yesterday post HERE but wanted to talk a little more about it.  As I mentioned before, I would have never bought this had I not tried it on first.  It looks so plain on the hanger and nothing special online however once I put it on, I loved it!  It ended up being my favorite item I tried on.  Sizing runs true to size and it fits me perfectly.  It’s extremely flattering and comfortable.  You can dress this up for work or wear it casually with jeans and sandals.

Ruffled Shell + Mosaic Pleated Skirt

I wasn’t in love with the mosaic pleated skirt however I love the ruffled shell (already have it). The pleated skirt is pretty and the colors are great for Fall but it wasn’t flattering on me.  I’m trying on 00P in the skirt and sizing runs true to size. The waist and length are perfect on someone my size and height.  I’m wearing XXSP in the ruffled shell and sizing runs true to size.  Fits me perfectly and is nursing friendly!

Blossom Sleeveless Blouse

I love the soft blossom print and colors of this top.  I think it will look much better tucked in a pencil skirt.  You can pair this with a blazer or cardigan for work.  I’m trying on XXSP and sizing runs true to size.  Fits comfortably and arm holes aren’t too wide.  Love and would recommend.

Tie Front Ruffle Neck Blouse

I wanted to love this peasant blouse but it’s VERY sheer. You’ll want to wear a nude/blush cami underneath.  I love the shirred ruffle collar and split neck with ties – so girly.  Sizing runs generous so I’d recommend sizing down. I’m trying on XXSP and there was plenty of room and then some.  I’m happy to report the sleeve length fits me (so rare).  It’s a pretty blouse and would recommend.

Ruffled Floral Shell

I have this blouse and LOVE it. It’s gorgeous and perfect to wear now and will transition right into Fall.  See the fit below!

Mosaic Pleated Skirt + Textured Dot Sweater

Doesn’t this skirt look much better on the mannequin?  I like it paired with the navy textured dot sweater better than the ruffled shell I had on (see above).

Tilda Patent Bow Leather Flats

If you love flats, these are so cute.  They are exactly like the Odette patent bow pumps but in a flat version.  See me wearing the heel version HERE.

Belted Twill Jacket

I was hoping to try this jacket on but there were no petite sizes in store.  It’s the same color as my single button blazer (as seen HERE).  Looks really classy and professional but unsure about the fit.

Odette Suede Bow Pumps

These are as gorgeous in person as they are online and I was able to snag my size 5! Woo hoo! I would definitely recommend them.  You can wear pink with black, navy, cream, white, beige….so many colors.

Modern Geo Tie Waist Dress

Couldn’t find this to try on in petites but it looks like it has potential. The length looks long but I love the style and the tie waist detail.

Odette Suede Bow Pumps

These are the Odette bow pumps in iron grey.  I took a photo to show you what they look like since stock images are sometimes difficult to really get a feel for the what the product is really like.  It also comes in burgundy (tawny port), black, sweet violet and arbor green.  Is it wrong that I want several pairs?  I ordered the black pair too…eeks!

Mixed Media Tie Tee

Room details: Rug (buy HERE) // Pink tufted chair (buy HERE, matching bench HERE) // Gold sequin bow pillow (buy HERE) // Gold Ampersand (buy HERE) // Gold pouf // Dress Form // Gold Shelves DIY (similar shelving HERE) // Similar gold mirror // Polka Dot glasses // Eiffel Tower bookends (similar HERE) // Necklace // Ampersand canvas art (similar HERE)

I’m loving this mixed media tee so much!  The only complaint is that it’s a bit pricey even after the 50% off.  I’m wearing XXSP and it fits perfectly. This would look great with some navy pants and pumps for work or worn casually with jeans/shorts and sandals.  Would recommend!

Ruffled Floral Shell

Ruffled floral shell (xxsp) // Modern ankle jeans // Navy sandals (or HERE)

I’ll do a more thorough review of these jeans but wanted to quickly mention how awesome they are!!! So awesome that they get three exclamation points! lol  See the regular length on me HERE.  There is a big difference in the regular and ankle lengths.  I’m so happy the ankle length requires no cuffing and zero alterations.  I’m wearing size 25P and they fit nicely.  I also got a black pair HERE.

Also, I ordered this textured open jacket a couple weeks ago in regular sizing and then my order got cancelled.  Now it’s available in petites so I re-ordered it.  Hope it looks as great in person as it does online!  Will keep you posted!

Happy shopping! XO
