It’s no secret I love a good blazer, but being petite doesn’t exactly make finding one that fits easy. I get a lot of questions about how I find blazers that fit, and the truth is, not many of mine really do as perfectly as I’d like. Many of them I’m slowly taking to the [...]

Knit blazers are slowly taking over my jacket wardrobe. Take note if like me, you happen to have a hard time finding blazers that fit…knit blazers are almost like cheating when it comes to blazers. The knit fabric is meant to stretch, so they’re often cut a little smaller than a traditional wool or cotton [...]

I love this shot of a model/actress (Anne Hathaway?) getting clamped into a dress for what I’m guessing is a photoshoot (source) I’ve linked to this blog post a few times now, but I haven’t given it a proper look on Alterations Needed until now. I really, really like the point it makes, and it’s [...]

Breezy…brrr I know a lot of people like to wear all black (I hear it’s the unofficial New Yorker uniform), but it’s such a severe color that I feel weird in too much of it. Instead I tend to collect greys. It’s still a dark neutral, but much less stern. For some reason, while getting [...]

The great pant search continues…and I’ve pretty much resigned myself to the idea of beefing up my denim collection, especially in colors, since non-jean pants have proven so elusive. Pants are hard to fit on me for several reasons. Not only am I very petite, but I need a really low rise to avoid unfortunate [...]

Sometimes it’s more fun perusing the men’s department than the women’s. Especially if I’m shopping with the boyfriend. It’s so much fun to hold up crazy-awesome ties and try to convince him it’s high time he rock an ascot (he protests, but he’s secretly considering it).
