Collection cashmere polka dot in caramel/dusk: J.Crew, other colors here Double serge wool No. 2 pencil skirt in vivid jade: J.Crew, here Boots: Coach, fall 2010 |
As far as the skirt goes, I originally ordered this color in the Tall 6. I figured I'd try it out, I was really curious about how it would compare to the regular 6. Turns out the Tall size was frumptastic on me. I took it to my local J.Crew to get a second opinion, and all of the wonderful sales associates and the personal shopper there agreed. The Tall length was just too long for me. So I exchanged it for a regular 6. (I'm 5'10".) Just wanted to share my experience in case you're a tall girl like me.
On another note, we leave for Florida in 5 weeks for our annual Christmas vacation. I start to panic around this time every year, knowing I have to be in a bathing suit, on the beach, during the fat season. So I'm trying to cut back and adopt a few more healthy habits between now and then. I think my current healthiest habits, besides exercising daily, include drinking 80 ounces of water per day, and a cup of green tea every afternoon. What is your healthy habit, and can you share it with me? I'd love some new inspiration. Thanks for stopping by!
Ha, I also caved on this one, and am wearing the green/navy one right now! :)
ReplyDeleteI feel SO much better that I am not the only one who owns this sweater in multiple colors! It seemed excessive but I've worn the green/navy one so much already, I know I will wear this one a lot too!
DeleteVery nice Jeannie! I have a polka dot problem too. I guess as problems go, it's fairly benign?
ReplyDeletePolka dot problem, benign. Shopping addiction, a little less benign. :)
DeleteHaha, funny, my husband said the same thing.
DeleteAt least around the holidays our shopping addictions can serve a purpose?
