Happy Saturday! I wore this outfit last Sunday for a stroll at Arnold Arboretum with my husband. I got this lacy bell sleeve top in size XS regular (review here) in store but I wish I waited to order it online in XXS regular. The top runs long in the overall length and it is slightly boxy so I like it best with skinny jeans and heels for a more slimming effect as seen in my previous post.

LOFT Plaid Henley Blouse, size XSP (as seen on Sara in size S)
I went to another local LOFT last week looking for new arrivals to try but all I could find were these sale items. I tried on this pretty plaid henley blouse in size XSP but the bust was too wide on me although it still looks really cute. I really love the colors for the fall. It was a good thing I forgot my LOFT card at home so I couldn’t make some impulse sale purchases.
LOFT Peplum Shell, size XS regular
Next I tried on this pretty peplum shell which I want in pink. I own it in the cluster print (review here). This top runs true to size and the drape is very forgiving. I love the ruffle sleeves for the perfect feminine touch.
Lou & Grey Signaturesoft Tunic Tee, size XS regular
Lastly, I tried on this signaturesoft tunic tee but size XS regular was very loose and it fit like size M. The fit is meant to be oversized. I need this top in XXS regular or XSP but the color and size I want are currently sold out online.
MY SECOND STITCH FIX
I received my second Stitch Fix last week and unfortunately nothing worked out this time so I had to bite the bullet and lose $20 for the styling fee. Refer to the review of my first fix here. Please consider using my referral link if you’re interested in trying out their services. They are a good way to discover new brands and styles I would not otherwise try on my own.
Look by M Neva Colorblock Striped Infinity Scarf – $34
LOFT Mixed Media Peplum Top, size XS regular (review here)
LOFT Crystal Floral Beaded Necklace
Kut From The Kloth Dayna Skinny Jean (Stitch Fix exclusive, review here, similar here)
Restricted Song Scalloped Flats
This fuzzy infinity scarf admittedly didn’t look like much in the box but I tried it on anyway and it looks cuter on. I wasn’t sure how much I would wear it so I returned it.
Skies are Blue Tanrah Double Breasted Trench Jacket in olive, size XS – $88
I got excited when I saw this trench jacket but size XS was too large/oversized on me and I wasn’t satisfied with the fit so I returned it. The sleeves were also a bit long which isn’t necessarily a bad thing but the material seems to be prone to wrinkling. I tried to steam out the wrinkles but I couldn’t get the jacket to be as crisp as I would have liked. It is lined and a good color and weight for the fall.
Kut From The Kloth Denna Skinny Jean, size 0P (Stitch Fix exclusive, similar here) – $88
I loved the Dayna skinny jeans that they sent in my previous fix but these Denna Skinny Jeans were longer and looser on me. I had to cuff them once and they were really baggy at my knees. I wore my Dayna skinny jeans a few times now and they tend to stretch out throughout the day with wear. I have to tug at them a bit but they are some of the comfiest jeans I own. I wish they came in a smaller size for a more snug fit.
Collective Concepts Elisa Faux Wrap Dress, size XS – $78
J.Crew Elsie Pumps With Enamel Heel (sold out, review here, similar here)
I don’t care for dark floral prints but I tried on this Elisa wrap dress and the fit was very flattering except for the bust. I have a smaller chest so the top portion gaped a bit on me as you can see in the right photo. Otherwise the dress fit well in the overall length and I noticed the skirt was lined.
Tart Milla Crew Neck Knit Top, size XS – $58
The last item they sent me was this crew neck top which is not my style at all. The colors and style are very retro but I tried it on anyway. Size XS was more form fitting than I prefer for my tops.
Thanks for reading!
