Petite Weekend Guide: 7/16/10

by AlterationsNeeded on July 16, 2010

Shop:

Ann Taylor: Some new things have been added to the sale section, including the tiered top from this post, and the brushstroke top from this post.

Banana Republic: 30% off select items. Included in the promotion is the streamers cardigan, which I would recommend if you’re a size or more bigger than me (my review).

LOFT: Some new merch is trickling in! Yay! I have my eye on a few items, like this metallic slub skirt,  this ruffle cardigan, and I love this lace skirt, but it’s only in regular sizes…what’s up with that LOFT?

Also, 50% off select full price items. Included in the promotion are the lace skirt I mentioned above, as well as the jacquard skirts from this post (and Petite Asian Girl’s post).

Nordstrom: The Anniversary Sale starts today!! Look for small sized shoes (they carry a good selection of size 4-5), small band bras (30!), and anything else that strikes your fancy.

The Little Bra Company: 15% off with code ANBRIDE15.

    I've never commented before but I just want to thank you for sharing the Huffigton Post article–great read!

  • PetiteAsianGirl

    …and PetiteXXS's recent bra post, too! That was a fun read : )

    So I also noticed that LOFT got some new stuff in online the day after I visited a store. Love that tiered skirt (if I didn't already own 3 from H&M) and the cardigan. But will they fit us right? Also noticed the lacy skirt is only in regular sizes…boo.

    Great round up of worthy sales and reads, and thank you so much as always for the mentions! I think I'm on a roll this week…made it into your post x3 : )

    Can't wait to see what you end up picking up from the Nordstroms sale. I see tiny pumps…

    Anony – You're welcome! It was a really fun read. =)

    PAG – Oh yeah! Forgot Petite XXS's bra post!

    I intend to do some shopping later today, Nordstrom sale…here I come! Let's hope there's some good stuff! I want to stop in my local LOFT too since there's no free shipping this weekend…boo!

    oh, love the LOFT cardigan and the skirt! Thanks for sharing!

  • PetiteXXS

    The LOFT lace skirt was actually available in petites, I had it in my shopping cart at one point but it must have quickly sold out.

    Thanks for the link to my blog as always! :)

    PetiteXXS – Really? I just discovered it a few days ago! Did they make one skirt in each size or something? Hope it pops back up!

  • PetiteXXS

    Either that or I was hallucinating! I remember not pulling the trigger on the order because that was the only thing I really liked. I kept thinking about it though and came back the next day to order but it was already gone… should've stuck to my motto of buy first and think later!

    Love the Loft Ruffle Cardigan. Thanks for the post.

    I love that lace skirt too but too bad, they don't come in petite sizes. I am going to Nordstrom today for anniversary sales. I hope to come back with some goodies
