Happy first day of summer! I love this white eyelet hem top and it’s currently on sale for 50% off! It’s not sheer despite being white since the material isn’t thin. It fits true to size and the measurements for my usual size XSP are as follows:
13″ shoulders
11″ upper arm circumference
34″ chest (measured pit to pit)
17.5″ sleeves
23″ length
If you like the sleeves then you may like this new navy lace flare sleeve dress (review here).

I finally took the plunge and I ordered these white jeans recommended by Annie when they were on sale a few weeks ago. I found a random Nordstrom Rack gift card in my wallet and it was meant to be since the amount I had left on the card covered the sale price of these jeans at regular Nordstrom. I went up one size as recommended and the jeans fit me well. I like the soft and stretchy material which isn’t too sheer. I noticed that the front pocket lining shows through which may cross off this pair from further consideration for those that front tuck or tuck in their tops. I always wear something long enough to cover the front so I don’t mind. The back pockets are also a good size and provide great coverage. The measurements for size 26W x 28L petite measurements are as follows:
26″ waist
9.25″ rise
29″ hips
23.5″ length
8.5″ ankle opening

I was hoping that this white dress work out since I love the side slit pockets and the button down details. I ordered size 00P right before I saw that it fit Courtney perfectly in her Instagram stories. She is one size bigger than me and she’s 5’4″ while I am 5 2.5″. Size 00P fits like a looser size 0P and since I have a smaller chest I couldn’t fill out the bust on this dress so it doesn’t do my any favors. This dress is also sheer due to being unlined but you can fix that by wearing a nude bra and a half slip on bottom. The measurements for size 00P are as follows:
31″ chest (measured pit to pit)
27.5″ empire waist
34.5 length
Update 7/16: I found this similar sundress on Amazon which I am ordering to try!

I love these lemon stone espadrilles and they run true to size but if you have slightly wider feet you may want to go up half a size for comfort. My right foot is a bit wider than my left foot so it isn’t as comfortable plus my feet always swell up in the hot summer heat after a lot of walking. I am debating if I should keep this current size and hope that they stretch out or if I should go up half a size. My husband thought they were really cute but I’m also not sure if I need them since I recently got the Michael Kors Alexis Espadrilles which are a bit wider, looser and more comfortable. On the bottom of the soles they don’t have much if any grip to them so you have to be very careful on more slippery surfaces.

I’ve been wanting this striped ruffle tank for a while now and I finally ordered size XXSP to try. I love the ruffle straps and thin stripes and I really like this casual look with my denim jacket over it.

I went down to size XXSP in the top since it has a very wide fit. The measurements of size XXSP are as follows:
29″ chest (the back has elastic that stretches)
22″ length
42″ along the bottom hem
Even LOFT Outlet has a similar style top in solid here.

I was curious about this pretty tie wrap top so I ordered it to try in size 0P but I believe I need to size down to 00P since the wrap portion of the chest is very loose on me. Size 0P measured as follows:
13″ shoulders
31″ chest (measured pit to pit)
25″ overall length
The polyester material arrived very wrinkled in the mail but it looked perfect after steaming it out. It is very sheer so a layering cami is required. Perhaps I need to try it with a nude cami instad of a white cami to better hide the lines for a cleaner look.

This floral top is the same floral print as my recent post with Ann Taylor. I originally tried on size XSP here but it was a bit loose fitting on me so I sized down to size XXSP for a better fit. I didn’t have an issue with the armholes in size XSP but in size XXSP I noticed that the arm holes are cut smaller so they do come up a bit higher. I don’t find this bothersome since I have a smaller chest,.
LOFT Distressed Denim Jacket, size XXSP | LOFT Striped Strappy Maxi Dress, size XSP (review here) | Click here to view another clip from my try-on
I am always on the lookout for white denim jackets and I ordered this to try since I haven’t found it at my local store. The measurements of size XXSP are as follows:
13.5″ shoulders
32″ chest (measured pit to pit with the jacket buttoned up)
22″ sleeve length
18.5″ total length
33″ hips (measured along the bottom hem matched and the jacket buttoned up)
This jacket fits true to size to slightly larger. It fits like a smaller size XSP due to the narrow shoulders and arm holes. You may prefer your usual size at LOFT if you prefer a looser fit for comfort and layering purposes.

If you like this style it’s also available in red. I noticed that Lilly also tried on both dresses. I couldn’t find my usual size 0P to try so I tried on size 2P which looks okay on me. I noticed that the material clings to your hips so it can be prone to showing unwanted bumps. It fits true to size but you may want to size up if you’re curvier to accommodate your hips and backside.

I wanted this dress to work out since it’s a good conservative dress for work but I didn’t love how the bust area looked on me in person. Size 00P fits like size 0P but note that the arm holes are a bit more narrow in size 00P.

I was looking for this signaturesoft shift dress to try on but I only found this style at my local LOFT to try. The dress fits true to size but this particular style has too much excess fabric in the skirt portion for me to “make it work”. I wish it was offered in petite sizes.
