Juicy Juicy


Even though I do have a couple of Juicy Hoodies from a couple of years ago, it never crosses my mind to go into their store. I was heading towards Forever21 and had a change of heart because it was too cold and windy outside the mall. I thought Juicy will do.

I found these two cute top and intended to wear these when I go on vacation because it's never hot in SF! Well SF decided to prove me wrong because it's hot this weekend. I am definitely not complaining!

Outfit Details:

Stripe Scope Neck Top $58 Juicy Couture. I'm wearing size S because they didn't have any XS in the store and I like the top so much I decided to buy it even though it's loose. I'm sure the XS would fit much better. You can't really tell in the picture, but the arm holes are really big. If I didn't tuck in the top, the shirt hangs down to the point where it almost cover my shorts. Maybe I'll take it for alterations...

Cotton Sateen Stretch Shorts by Talula from Aritzia $40 Size 0. Overall fit is fine. The waist is pretty big...definitely can't wear without a belt.

Leather equestrian belt from Jcrew $45. I cut off the tag from the belt, but I think the size I got is XS. Also Jcrew recently launched a new site called Madewell. It looks like a more casual and less expensive version. Let me know if you get anything from there and how their stuff fits.

Tory Burch "Sally 2" Peeptoe Wedges from Bloomindgales $265-- I got these in size 5.5 and they are pretty true to size. I been wearing these a lot and they are stretching out a bit.
I also wore these on my May 31 post.




Top is from Juicy Couture $58. Size XS. Sorry there isn't a link. I can't find it anywhere online. I love the flutter bell sleeves and the faded graphics. The printed is actually printed on the inside of the shirt! The sheer material of the shirts allows the image to show through.

Liquid Leggings are from Bebe XS. I got these for $2 from the Bebe sample sale. Sophia and I went last year and we got a whole bunch of stuff for $2. It was in a big warehouse packed with miles of people. It was insanity.

BCBGirls Black Pumps Size 6. These run 1/2 too small. Here is something similar from Nordies and it's on sale for $38.90. BCBGeneration 'Alena' Pump (Nordstrom Exclusive).

Buy Multiple Basics

Black Cardigan (XS)
Long cardigans are great to drape over a short dress or used as a light jacket. I got the cardigans in ivory and black from Express and was surprised that it fit. I've gotten other things from Express and they always ended up being too big.

I also have been wanting a pair of oxford shoes, but didn't want to spend a load of money on something that is so trendy. Oxford are versatile, you can wear them with skinny pants, leggings, shorts, dresses and skirts. I've been on the hunt for something that isn't totally flat or more than 3 -4". Can't believe its taken me this long. I seen a number of oxford, but the majority have been without heels or with super high heels and I wanted neither. Flats look bad on me because it makes my short legs look short. These are the perfect height - about 2.5". They're casual enough to pair with anything and can also be dressed up (like here) with a tunic and stockings.

Kitty Cat Earrings By Betsey Johnson $18

Cardigan from Express $49.90 (XS) in black. The ivory color below is in XXS. The fitting doesn't vary that much except the XXS is a bit shorter. The material is really nice and soft and the buttons are sparkly...great buy.

Rope Stretch Waist Belt from Free People: $34 and comes in the color black also

Cheetah Sweater Tunic from Forever21: Size Small (a bit loose) and it comes with its own black belt. It's on sale right now for $8.99!!

Jason Oxford from Baker Shoes: $59.95 and in size 5.5 (fit true). I think it's pretty comfortable. I only wore it for a couple of hours, so I can't promise anything.




Ivory Cardigan (XXS)




Top is by Wilfred from Aritzia in XS - original price is $40 and I got it for $32. The entire store is on sale right now. I think the sale ends in 2 days. When you go into the store, ask the rep for the list of things on sale. All the brand are broken down by categories of 20%, 30% or 40% off.

Cardigan from Express $49.90

Skinny Leggings from BEBE size 24


Tory Burch "Sally 2" Peeptoe Wedges . I got mine at Bloomindgales for $265-- I got these in size 5.5 and they are pretty true to size. The leather is really nice and looks expensive. I love her logo and all her shoes are so classic. I always get tons of compliments when I wear her them. <3>
