New items from PAG’s blog sale

Posted on February 22, 2011December 21, 2014 by Elaine

I think I now LIVE for blog sales LOL!  They’re so great because A) I have access to items that are not available in Canada especially petite sizes;  B) I am almost guaranteed a great fit since seeing it on my fellow petite bloggers gives me a really good idea on how it will fit me; C) I can just buy something by emailing someone and tapping on my keyboard LOL!

Here are my latest items purchased from Jean aka Petite Asian Girl of Extra Petite from her blog sale:

First up – Banana Republic Navy Chain Shift Dress in 00P:

BR dress front view
I can’t believe how perfectly this fits me!
BR dress side view
I love the exposed zipper 🙂 And it’s so comfortable as well.

 Next up – Trina Turk Silk Cashmere Cardigan XS:

Trina Turk Carid Front View
This cardigan is so amazingly soft and cozy!
Trina Turk Cardi Side View
And I absolutely LOVE the colour!

Last but definitely NOT least – Loft Petite V-neck Shell:

Loft Top front view
Jean was sooo incredibly sweet to offer this top to me through a private sale as she’s sick of well aware of my complaints about not being able to get  my hands on Loft items 😉
Loft Top side View
I LOVE this top so much! I don’t have anything like it and I love the way it fits.

Thank again Jean – it’s truly, truly appreciated 🙂  The blogging community and the petite blogging community in particular have been just AMAZING! I know we are essentially all strangers but I honestly feel so connected with all the ladies I’ve met through blogging and through twitter.  If you don’t have a blog connect with me and the other ladies on twitter or on the Alterations Needed Forum.  Never have I felt such openness from an online community before – it’s such a warm and fuzzy feeling! 🙂

    Wow Jean’s items look fantastic on you! So sad you guys don’t have LOFT, since it’s definitely one of my favorite stores… and their items seem to fit you so well. Well, here’s to hoping they’ll expand soon! 🙂

    Aww! I agree! It is so nice to have made such nice friends online! I talk about you guys to my husband all the time using…even using your names! Lol! I will be at the mall and say, “So-and-so just bought that!”

    I love all the items you got from Jean! That cardigan color is amazing on you!! I have that LOFT shell, too…such a pretty color to wear! It is great for winter paired with deep purple or gold cardigans, and will obviously work great in the spring! I love that LOFT’s shells have such small armholes! No worries about bras peaking out!

    cardigan is a nice color & will be good for the color brigade, but arm hole seems a bit big.

    @grace I like the colour of the blouse so much better in person than in the stock photo – I’m so glad Jean was willing to ship these to me!

    @Vicky we “spoke” on twitter already, but you are so sweet! and yes no Loft or Ann Taylor here 🙁

    @Really Petite have I seen this top on you? I can’t recall!

    @jamie-lee Thank you!!! 🙂

    @Kimberly Yes you have to act FAST for these blog sales!

I keep forgetting that Canada doesn’t have Loft. That’s awful!!! Extremely awful. Do you have Ann Taylor? Anyways, I want to let you know I have a few brand new Loft tops/shells that I am planning on putting on my blog sale later this week. I will definitely give you a heads up before I post.

A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk ab A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk about here. 🫤 I’ll be reaching out to the company in question to make them aware of the situation, but I wanted to share it with you all as well. 

How is this type of thing still happening, even in the age of AI? If a high-tech “smart tool” can’t properly recognize and accommodate diverse skin tones, then it needs further development and should not yet be released. End of story. 

Use your purchasing power to support brands that are inclusive in their product development, testing, promotion, AND corporate structure. Every action has impact.

Getting to play with the re-release of @lancomeofficial #JuicyTubes has been such a fun throwback! ✨ I remember thinking they were the ultimate ~Cool Girl~ makeup product when they first came out and reading about them as a beauty must-have in every magazine (J14 anyone?! 😂) They were basically the “grown up” version of Lip Smackers! 

Gotta say, applying one of their trademark frosted, shiny shades now is making 12 year old me *very* happy. 

Now excuse me while I reapply Lavender Latte and blast some Britney 👄💿

Do you remember these 00s classics?

We had an amazing experience there and left feeling so full and so happy. The chef even made me a special entree (with no advance notice) when I wasn’t able to eat the other options because of my allergies 🥹. Now that’s service!

Their Soft Smudge Lip & Cheek stick is incredible. A cream-to-powder formula(!!!!), this baby is buildable, blendable, and beautiful. 

Plus, with just a drop of KJH.Brand Hyper Shine Serum, it transforms into a glossy, rich sheen of luxurious color. 

I’ve used it on my eyes, lips, and cheeks in both glossy and matte textures, and love it each time. It’s genuinely like having 5 products in one. 😍

Have you tried anything from @kjh.brand yet?

I truly love these @milkmakeup Cooling Water Jelly Tints and wear at least one daily on some combo of eyes, lips, and cheeks. The color payoff is 🤯, the longevity is 😍. They’ve got vegan collagen and aloe to plump and soothe skin. 

For an easy, juicy burst of color this summer, grab yours at @sephoracanada! 🌊
