…ge Premium Denim Laurel Canyon, size 24 (waist taken in and hemmed) Shoes: Cole Haan Genevieve Open Toe Pump, size 5 Jewelry: 16inch Akoya Pearl Necklace and 36inch Ruby and Silver Necklace (similar here) (and here) I really like this sweater. The merino wool is soft, not scratchy, and the color is beautiful. There is also a gray I have my eye on…but I’ll play the waiting game and see if I can snag that one on sale. The sizing is also much better,…
…e Petite 00: Jeans: Gap Sexy Boot, size Petite 00 Top: H&M, size XS Shoes: Cole Haan Genevieve Open Toe Pumps, size 5 These were the best fit out of the whole group. The waist was decent, the rise was nice and low, and the length was perfect on me (I have REALLY long legs for my height, so I luck out with petite length pants…they’re usually perfect with heels). What I didn’t particularly care for was the fit in the thigh (a little baggy, but less…

…stly, the lapel is also a tad bit wider, but still feels proportional to a petite frame. I picked up this blazer immediately when I saw it was being offered in new size petite 000 for two reasons. I’m always looking for small-fitting blazers, especially if the shoulders seem like they’ll be nice and narrow (I have narrow shoulders on top of being petite, so they are always a problem area for me), so I HAD to try this new size for it’s super petite…

…s sales on the site!! Thank you for the response Gilt Groupe! I still wish petite models could be used to model petite clothing, because ultimately, I want to see how the garment will look on short little me, not cropped and awkward on a taller model. However, I understand, and am sympathetic towards the problems of financial allocation and time logistics, and I do enjoy the fix of a good Gilt Groupe sample sale or two (or three!). If Gilt Groupe…
…: 5/25/11 :: Theory blazer :: H&M t-shirt :: Paige jeans (altered) :: Cole Haan shoes :: LOFT flower pin The days are a little out of order this week because I really like this outfit and you already saw my outfit for Monday in my summer cardigans post. The sun was shining beautifully on this particular morning, so I decided seersucker was a great way to start the day. The shoes are a new Cole Haan Outlet find from a few weekends ago, where I tend…
…ir 15 minutes of fame. Yellow shoes…get ready for your close up! These are Cole Haan Genevieve pumps, in size 5. I fell in love with these the first time I saw them online last year, but by the time I even knew they existed, they had already sold out in my size. =( Then, my lovely boyfriend went on a boy’s trip to Vegas, and the awesome guy he is, actually took the time to check the Cole Haan boutique to see if they had my shoes. Low and behold, t…
…comfortably wear them out. I also had to stretch the toe box of my size 5 Cole Haan grey suede shoes, which I find gives me a better fit in the heel. (I sized up to 5.5 in Cole Haan once, and my heel slipped even with heel pads. I take this to mean I either have a narrow heel, which causes me to size down, or I’m in between sizes.) How do I stretch shoes you ask? Well…I cut the toes off a pair of thick athletic socks, which I put over my toes, an…
