Petite Weekend Guide: 9/24/10

by AlterationsNeeded on September 24, 2010

Shop:

Ann Taylor: $50 off a full price shoe purchase, plus free shipping with a pair of shoes. Extra Petite also tipped us off to a possible stackable 20% off code. The Ann Taylor Perfect Pumps are divine, but a little too wide for my narrow feet, but maybe some of you can take advantage of this great deal!

Banana Republic: Today only, 25% off or 30% off with a BR/Gap card with code BRGIFT, plus free shipping on $100+ with code BRFREE100. I’m liking the look of this jacket. It looks nice and fitted (look at those slim sleeves!), but might be too long for this short-torso’d gal. Maybe one of you longer torso’d ladies will find it a good fit.

LOFT: Sweaters and tops are buy one, get one 50% off, and free shipping on $125+. This striped sweater looked great on Michelle of Mini Maestra.

Don’t forget to use Ebates or Bigcrumbs for your online purchases to get cash back! I’ve signed up for both, and then compare cash back deals and use which ever is best.

    Yikes, thanks for the reminder : ) I have to go home and mull over an outfit (or two) for PFC.

    I have not scoped out BR in ages. I like the schoolboy plaid look of that blazer, and the sleeves really look quite slim.

    PS – there is now a 30% off stackable coupon instead of the 20% for AT shoes. A reader was kind enough to share the tip and I tested it out!

    I just noticed it's a soft knit jacket versus blazer…sounds familiar? lol. Btw saw this review: "Me = 5' 1/4", 105lbs. Briana = PXXS" so since you are about 20lbs less, this probably won't work out : (

    Eeeeks, so not ready yet! I had something in mind but haven't tried it out yet, and we all know how that usually turns out!

  • Elle

    I love how BR styled this jacket, I can't help myself when I see gray and dusty pink paired together. Thanks for the heads up, I'll be watching for when this gets further discounted (IF it gets further discounted)

    I am proud to say that I've already finished my PFC post…I think.

  • Em

    Ahh, I'm not ready either. It almost slipped my mind, thanks for the reminder. Gonna write it in my planner now (yep, I'm old school). Have a great weekend!

    PAG – Get cracking on that PFC! I did see that review…I'm hoping it runs stretchy (is that a term?).

    curls-and-pearls – I've gotta get mine too. I think I have my fall outfit ready…but summer…???? I'm not a good summer dresser. =P

    Elle – I know, I love the styling too! Wow..finished with your PFC already! Impressive!

    That Ann Taylor deal sounds great! I should try that store out…only been a LOFT shopper, so far.

    Thanks for the plug. :)

  • PetiteLittleGirl

    What a lovely jacket! I did take some photos earlier for your PFC but they didn't turn out very well :) Fall is here so by the time I got home, day light is gone. I'll retry tomorrow :)

  • The Little Dust Princess

    I did the PFC today! Procrastinated from doing all the readings I need to do. :(

    Changing outfits, taking photos, editing, and posting all take a very LONG time.

    By the way, I would like to host the "LBD" PFC one day! : )
