inspiration Monday: sizing woes and happy dots

The inspiration: Hilary Duff

My take: 
BCBG Max Azria top, gift from little tin soldier
trousers, Banana Republic Factory Store
Semantics cardigan, Nordstrom Rack
bracelets, gifted and DIY

      I usually take outfit photos before leaving the house, but I'm still adjusting to my work schedule (although I must confess that on Friday, I got to come in two hours later than usual). Anyhow, imagine my horror when I came home, took photos, and realized how poorly these pants fit. I have a few BR Factory pants that fit great, but they seem the change the fabric all the time (my favorite pair is made of a rather thick, stretchy material that skims my curves without being clingy). Add in the fact that I never really know what size I wear there -- I think every pair of BR pants I own is a different size! -- and this is the result. *Sigh.*  I'll take these photos as validation of my decision to stop buying work pants from BR Factory and seek out a new brand. Anyone have a reasonably priced brand that offers petite sizes that they love? 


     On the bright side, I got to wear this beautiful top that Linda of little tin soldier so kindly thrifted for me. I love the colors and interesting neckline! And I think this swingy little top would look so cute with that pair of black skinny jeans that I've been craving lately. :)
