Kirna Zabete for Target: Mini-Review

I did swing by Target and picked up a few things .... most are going back, this is the one picture I thought might be helpful for anyone thinking about purchasing....

Tweed Dress: Size XS ... I really wanted to like this.... the faux leather trim and tweed are cute and right on trend!  however, it fits kind of like a box.  The bust was tight (at least you can unzip it!) and the length was far too short ... now with leggings, it would be ok.  This is going back.... not so flattering.

Underneath is the lace top in a size Small.  I'm keeping this.  Very cute and stretchy and I think it will be a great and trendy laying piece.  I may even go back and snag the pink color, too!

Thanks for stopping by - lots of new J.Crew reviews coming soon! :-)

J.Crew Minnie Pant in Vibrant Flame - Plus OOTD

As soon as I saw these bad boys in the catalog, I immediately logged on to my favorite website and scooped them up!  I had tried them on in the store, but they didn't have this orange color - but at least I knew the size to purchase online.

Minnie Pant in Stretch Twill - $79.50

This is the vibrant flame color.... love!  I am wearing a Petite 2 here.  The regular 2 was a little to big, plus they were too long for my liking. 

Although you can't see in the picture, these come about 2 inches above my ankle... the regular ones came to my ankle bone, which is great in super-skinny pants and denim, but I didn't love it in these. (my older ones are regulars and I wish I had gotten a petite! )

Pants- J.Crew

Cardi- J.Crew

Bracelet - Lia Sophia

Watch - Fossil

Cami - Victoria's Secret

Here they are with an older floral cardigan from J.Crew - I love how the orange in the pants pulls the color from the cardigan!  I wore this to our preschool teacher conference.

Sometimes it's hard for me to decide what to keep when a new roll-out is amazing and I want too much!  However, with these it was a no-brainer!  I've already worn them twice!

Bottom Line: If for nothing else, buy them for the color!  These pretty much only work with heels or flats (ie: can't tuck into boots!) so rock these during the fall as much as possible!  If anything, these run a bit large because I was able to stick with my regular size in the petite instead of sizing up!

J. Crew Fall Items On Their Way Via UPS - Grey JC Tee Review

I caved. I said I wasn't going to order ANYTHING at FP this fall because I NEED NOTHING .... however, I'm expecting a shipment and some new Fall J.Crew items tomorrow! I jusified the purchase because I needed to order the garden pearl bracelet for a good friend of mine to wear on her wedding day.... and of course I needed to order enough to get free shipping! ha! I ordered the Anton sweater in the heather grey and heather camel in size Small, the Minnie Pant in Coal, among a few other things! There are still a few other things I have my eye on - ankle cords, scattered glass necklace, dream ruffle sleeveless sweater, etc... but I went ahead and ordered the things I couldn't live without! Can't wait! Reviews to come tomorrow (ok - Connor starts school tomorrow - so maybe Tuesday!)

One the more recent items I purchased for FP from JC (which is a rare thing for me) is this tee-shirt! I LOVE it! I believe this was an in-store only style... I actually don't remember the name if it and I can't find my receipt which would have the name of it, but anyway. I spotted it while we were in California, but the store didn't have it in my size (small). After not being able to find it online, with the help of some fellow JC lovin' bloggers, I found the name and style number and emailed my local JC to hold the tee for me until I got home!! I've already paired it with white jeans and black shorts! I think this will be a great piece to take me into fall. I probably could have taken an XS because the material isn't that clingy, but I'm happy with the Small!

Have a great Sunday!
