Here are a few remaining items I have tried on in May so far. It will probably be my last try-on until after my trip.
May part 3
I thought the Sequin Anchor Tank, Sz S, would be like the Sequin Stripe Tank, with more sequins and a tighter fit, but this is meant to be loose and drapey and has less sequins than I expected. I like it that much more now but not for $98, so off to the wish-list it goes. The other unexpected item was the Jardin Maxi Skirt, Sz 6. I had to size to an 8 in the midi-Jardin skirt and I actually need a 4 in the maxi-Jardin. The Morning Aqua color is gorgeous.
The Tropical Cove color is just a pretty. I’m wearing the Size 4 in it and it fits great in the waist and hits about 2 inches above the ground. This is definitely something I want in either the 4 or 6 Petite in the Morning Aqua, but I will wait until after my trip to 1) see if it has gone on sale 2) I want it after I come back.
My mini mini skirt has a name…Classic mini in Double-Serge Cotton. I decided to try on the Brilliant Blue color, Sz 8, to see if I liked it on. If it makes it to sale I would get it in this color. It’s super-cute and I love my Mint color.
Poppy Scarf – Not online but so cute. Sorry, I forgot to take a pic of the tag.
I originally couldn’t wait to see the Tippi Sweater in Linen Stripe and then when I did I was really disappointed. I thought this was navy and white but it’s a lot darker than expected. I have on a Medium, which is my normal sweater size, and it fits great. I like that it’s lighweight but I prefer the Linen Cable-Knit Sweaters over the Linen Tippi Sweaters.
I was not expecting to like the Silk Bow Cami, Sz 6, but it’s a great little top. This was the only size 6 left in any of the colors or patterns in my store. It’s selling out quickly. The was not tight across the chest and there was enough material to make a nice big bow.
The Tessa Top in Linen, Sz 6, is another item selling quickly. I really wanted to try this in Chili but both the 6 and 8 were already sold out. This is a comfortable top and fits well across the chest and shoulders (my problem area usually causing me to size to an 8).
The Size-Down-Two-to-Three-Sizes Peasant Blouse Whisper Gauze Peasant Blouse, Sz Small, is huge on me. And it’s selling like hotcakes. I would really need to size to an XS or even a XXS. And I really liked the Chili color too. 🙁
So, that’s it on the May roll-out for me. I am soooo ready for my trip and will be posting my final packing list in the next few days.
Have a Great Day!!
Love that top outfit for summer…perfect!! I also love the scarf..Great job of reporting you have been up to!!
Thanks Pam! Did I ever mention I was 2nd place in District in Feature writing? I keep that in my back pocket for a rainy day. Yearbook, Newspaper, all of that…and now Blog!
I SERIOUSLY want the morning aqua maxi skirt! It makes you look teeny tiny!
Now if that isn't a reason for me to get that skirt I don't know what is!
I second that comment – you look so fab in that skirt. I thought it looked kind of "meh" in the style guide (run, model, run), but seeing it on you makes me want to try it in person.
I'm waiting for an irl image of that peasant blouse in which it actually looks flattering on the wearer, b/c I have yet to see one. It *always* looks like a mess!
Love everything Audrey! I read all your posts back to the start of the year. Wonderful outlook on fashion and style 🙂
Love, PS @ LaCa
seriously, buy the anchor shirt. That outfit is awesome!
The Sequin Anchor tank looks great with the Jardin Maxi in Aqua! I have the skirt and really want the tank now. Thanks for the outfit.
