Happy Friday! We finally moved into our new condo and I look forward to finish organizing all of our things this weekend and picking up a few items we still need. We’ve lived in the same place since 2008 so the process of de-cluttering and moving is a lot more work than I remember. Luckily I was able to take a few try-ons before our move.

REVIEWS
I thought that the above black and white heart print top and skirt were a cute pairing. The skirt is fully lined and I took my usual size 00 regular for extra length.
Ann Taylor’s Valentine’s Collection
c/0 Ann Taylor Heart Tiered Flare Dress, size 00 regular | c/o Ann Taylor Mila Leather Pumps (review here) | Click here and here to view the clips from my try-on
I ordered this heart print dress in size 00 regular after seeing how short it was on the mannequin in store. Size 00 regular is still shorter than what I prefer but I like the flirty fit. The dress is fully lined with sheer sleeves. It has a keyhole opening at the neckline which I prefer to wear closed for more coverage.

LOFT Heart Ruffle Peplum Shell, size XSP | My exact jeans are old favorites but I just ordered this similar pair | Click here and here to view the clips from my try-on
LOFT also has a Valentine’s Day shop and I was curious about this black and white shell since it would be perfect for layering under a blazer. My usual size XSP fits me well and the material is thin but passable with a skin tone bra. The back has a black ribbon and as another online reviewer noted you could also wear this top with the back keyhole opening facing the front.

c/o Ann Taylor Embroidered Heart Sweatshirt, size XSP | Click here and here to view the clips from my try-on
Despite the name of this top I would say that this shirt feels more like a stretchy ponte material rather than the usual sweatshirt fabric. My usual size XSP fit me well except the sleeves are a bit shorter on me. I had also ordered it in size XXS regular but I prefer the length and drape of the petite sizing.
LOFT Floral Ruffle Split Neck Blouse, size XSP | Click here and here to view the clips from my try-on
This floral print blouse looked really cute online so I ordered it to try. My initial reaction before I tried it on was that the floral print was something my mom would definitely love. The blouse looks cuter on and it’s a flowy fit in my usual size XSP. The neckline has a keyhole opening but I prefer to wear it closed. I’m not sure how much I would reach for this blouse so I plan to return it.

Lou & Grey Signature Softblend Lite Pocket Cowl Top, size XXS regular (review of the grey color here) | Topshop Jamie High Waist Crop Skinny Jeans, size 26W x 30L | Click here and here to view a clips from my try-on
I liked this cowl neck top so much in the dark grey color that I also ordered it in white and lavender. It’s a great length to throw on over leggings or jeans. My usual size XXS regular fit me well.
Topshop Jamie High Waist Crop Skinny Jeans, size 26W x 30L | Click here to view the clip from my try-on
I was so excited to find these petite friendly Jamie cropped jeans for my sponsored post with Nordstrom. These jeans are a splurge since they’re currently $75 at full-price. They’re a mid wash with very minimal distressing (only slightly distressed at the hem). I went up one size and size 26W x 30L fits like my usual size 25/0P in LOFT and Ann Taylor jeans.
FRAME Le Skinny Cropped Jeans, size 24 | Click here to view the clip from my try-on
I ordered these stretchy cropped jeans since I was hoping the inseam would be ankle length on me but size 25 was too loose on my thin legs. Size 24 was a better fit but the cropped inseam is slightly longer than I prefer since there is some slight bunching at the ankles. If you’re slightly taller than 5’2.5″ then these jeans would be a great fit and length. I didn’t measure the inseam but they likely have a 25.5″-26″ inseam based on where they fall at my ankles.
Mondetta Scalloped Hem Leggings, size XS | Soludos Ibiza Sneaker (also available in nude and a platform version) | Click here to view the clip from my try-on
I ordered these leggings (also available in teal) to try in size XS since I noticed they had a cute scalloped detail at the hem. They also have cute scallop detail on the side pockets as well. I was pleasantly surprised that the inseam wasn’t too long on me. I wore them all of yesterday while packing and unpacking and they held up well and did not stretch or sag at the knees or rear.
Thanks for stopping by!
