What am I MOST excited for during these Weekend Sales? Let me outline a few items + showcase a few fits from recent online purchases. Head over to see all my Favorite Brands on this page.
Fall Booties: I cannot believe Vince Camuto is having their Friends & Family Sale! You’ve heard me talk about them a LOT and their Franell Booties are now <$100! Grab a pair before they sell out again this season! Read my blog post on them here and no-show sock options here.
Trench coat: I love a classic trench coat. I own 3 in different colors – khaki, black and burgundy. I wrote about them previously HERE and HERE. My khaki one is from J. Crew Factory but they don’t have it in stock so there are 2 amazing options from J. Crew that are on sale now – pleated or classic style.

Ann Taylor & new LUXE Collection:
- Side Zip Leggings: These were amazing! Very comfortable and the rich burgundy color is gorgeous. I tried on a 00P and thought I could size up to a 0P for a more comfortable fit. (lace top is from Bloomingdale’s – size XS)
- Stitched Flare Sweater Skirt: Ok, so you know I LOVE sweater skirts so I had to try this on while in store. It fit well in XXSP. I would recommend for those needing to add a sweater skirt to your wardrobe (I already own 3 so I’m good for now).
- Marled Knit Pencil Skirt: This was SO comfortable. I tried on 00P and 0P and both fit well. It is a pull on style with an elastic waist. I actually don’t think it would require any tailoring – hitting right above my knee. This would be so convenient to travel with for work.
- Stripe Jersey Layering Top: Again, a theme within the LUXE collection – soft and comfortable. The XXSP fit well and I could size up to an XSP for a looser fit for lounging around the house. It would be long enough to pair with leggings.
- Ruffle Neck Sheath Dress: This was an interestingly designed dress. I loved the soft fabric and ruffle on the front. However, there was a large slit in the back that was awkward looking. It fit in 00P/XXSP but I would not recommend unless you like the back design.
- Other Recommendations from Sale: Long Blazer; Flutter-Sleeve Top (see it styled here) or Solid-Color Top (XXSP or XXS reg fits me – photos below, sorry for creases in them); Bow Heels (size down, I take a 5)
- I just talked about J.Crew on my blog with this bow dress and daisylace top. I recommend both of those items during the sale.
- This eyelet ruffle mock-neck top also caught my eye. I liked it on in size XXSP and in the jade green color besides white or black colors. It comes UN-lined so other online reviews have reported seeing through it. I didn’t really see a problem here – I’m wearing a nude bra. If you have concerns, you could add in a camisole and size up. This mock-neck top would look best tucked into a skirt in my opinion.
- Guess what?! My J. Crew Leather Jacket is back in stock! I showcased it in navy in this blog post and now it’s also available in limited sizes in a gorgeous ivory moroccan sand color. The updated version also comes in olive green or navy with gold buckles or in a washed black or burgundy style (new versions HERE or HERE).
- One of wool coats is included in the sale! I own it in navy and showcased it in this blog post (I sized up to Petite 0 for layering). I really like the matisse blue color.
- Finally, my whale shirt is still in stock and supports a great cause. It’s excluded from sales but a great deal for an updated striped top (my blog post).
Business Suit: My favorite company for business suits that are petite-friendly is having a sale! This is SO rare. Head over to Theory to check it out and see my blog post and photos on my black suit.
White House Black Market(WHBM):
- Leather Flounce Jacket: This caught my eye while searching for other petite-friendly leather jackets. I am trying it on in size Petite XXS. It actually fit quite small on me – the shoulders were almost tight and arm length almost short. That was kind of a nice surprise to know they are making very petite-friendly clothing! I didn’t end up keeping this because I really have no use for another jacket but I recommend – possibly sizing up though.
- Jetsetter Tee: This was a random buy for more casual tops. It was a great alternative to a classic v-neck tee and the color was gorgeous in blush pink.
Talbots: My reversible belt is still in stock and comes in 4 colors! More info over on this blog post and for sweaters I recommend on this blog post. Also, don’t forget essentials like opaque tights that I love from here!
Land’s End: Winter accessories with leather gloves, hat or mittens.
Bloomingdale’s: Quick picks include these petite-friendly sunglasses and Aqua dress (less than $35 after sale!). I’ve written a few times about my love for their Aqua line (I own 3 dresses in size XS from there). Also, they have an amazing gift for Breast Cancer Awareness with $19 going towards the Foundation- shop the water bottle here.
LOFT: Quick picks include this burgundy ruffle lace top and camisole.
