    As much as I would love to critique each outfit that I like...I can't. I like them all! Okay, maybe the simple yet sharp chic-ness of the first outfit stands out for me. And the glasses look wonderful on you...tres chic! (sorry...can't figure out how to do the accent mark over the 'e').

    I am so jealous you have the Express Overlapping ring! I saw it in a store last week, but they only had size 8. I didn't want to pay shipping just for a ring, but I should probably just do it. It's so cute. I really like your "Almost PFC" outfit.

    Love the new glasses!!

    That old LOFT coat is awesome! I have only been shopping at LOFT as a frequenst customer for less than one year, so I am an unfamiliar with their older items...I wish I had known about them sooner...I am in love with that darn jacket!! Ahh!!

    And Eckles!!! So cute! Our cat, Little Girl, loves to sneak her way into the closet, and snuggles with my purses, as well. Which I do not approve of...I keep the closet door closed, however, my husband will forget from time to time. :/

    my fave is the stripe w/the loft dress! and my roommate is considering getting those pants, but i feel they are more flared than wide leg.

    Wow!! You dont let the grass grow under ya... keeping busy I see with the Softt Pavia : ) The jeans outfit w/ the scarf is very cute! What kind of belt with? Burgandy patent? My fav look is with the snake skin bag - the whole look says laid back but adorable all in one!!

    Hi!

    Love your outfits!!

    Question, what do you think of the following jacket from The Limited... I'm tempted, wanted to get your opinion since it seems you're a natural with this fashion stuff!

    Thanks,
    Jennifer

    Hi Jennifer, The jacket is really cute, I did see it in the store as well.

    First thing, please notice the 3/4 length sleeves widen just slightly towards the wrist and there is a medium wide belt at the waist.

    Because of these three things combined -

    1. 3/4 length sleeves
    2. Wider sleeves
    3. Med wide belt

    - this jacket will be most flattering on a frame with a smaller bust and a longer torso ;)

    I love your outfits! Question about the Sofft Pavias - did you order a narrow width? I have pretty normal (usually M) feet, but the reviews on the Nordstrom website keep saying they run wide. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  19. CallandraApril 2, 2011 at 8:22 PM

    Hey E, I wouldn't order them in narrow. I will say that I can sometimes get away with a size 6 but I had to get these in 5.5 so that they fit properly.

    Thank you Kish!....You aren't the only one by the way (how do they add that mark?!) hee

    Thank you Leena....I'm glad you like the gap wide leg...........still trying to decide ;)

    Thank you Ski, I never would have ordered that ring if I'd only seen it online, but in the store I loved it!

    Thanks Elaine......Eckles even posed for me, I thought it was so cute ;)

    Oh Michelle, don't get me started on the closet thing! Luckily we have seperate closets (not walk in :( but it helps to keep the girls out ;)

    Thank you Tara!

    Thank you Heather.....both pieces are from 2009 I believe ;)

    Thank you Christine, they're so comfortable!

    Awww....thank you sunshine!


    I think you're right Aubrey, I'm not sure why they are listed as wide leg! Btw, I think the striped may be my favorite as well ;)

    Thank you Bella! Burgandy patent huh?....I may just have one of those ;)

    Thanks so much Ping!

    You're the sweetest thing Annie! ...Thank you ;)

    Callandra you never fail to be inspiring, I love all of these outfits (you look incredible in all of them!) Keep the outfit recaps coming, my favorite feature because of how inspired I get!

    Those glasses are the perfect "accessory" for that first outfit! Love all your outfits as always, and I'm actually interested in trying the Gap trouser jeans but I'm afraid they're going to be a size too big for me as usual.

  22. ElaineApril 4, 2011 at 3:36 PM

    Love it! The third outfit is my fave!

  23. CallandraApril 4, 2011 at 4:02 PM

    Awwww..thank you Elle ;) I'm so glad to hear you like the recaps!!

    Thank you Liane. I'm sorry to say that the gap trouser jeans are definitley going to be to big for you :( Of course you could get them tailored down.......but that seems so unfair.

    Awesome, thank you Elaine!

    Hello! Callandra,

    I don't read blog often or like to leave any comments. Yours is among my few favorite blogs.

    You are very very pretty and yet so humble and sincere. A breath of fresh air in the blogosphere.

    Rest assured I am not a stalker.

    Your tailor had done a good job altering the Loft jean featured in an older post.
