I went back to BCBG Maz Azria lately to check out their new arrivals and since I had been holding onto a bit of store credit, I felt like I should at least use it.
Most of the items in XXS fit decently, but it depends on the cut and the style. For a few things, even the XXS was big and if it was one size smaller, it would be even better for me! But the bandage style skirts are made quite small…I couldn’t fit into the skirt in XXS, I had to size up to an XS…amazing!
But what really sold me was this tunic top…I didn’t see it online, but it’s available in stores in XXS. The armholes could be smaller, but it’s fine. I just loved the color and the way it drapes.
Outfit Details: BCBG Maz Azria tunic – XXS, J.Crew Matchstick jeans (waist taken in) – 25R, Urban Outfitters braided belt – S, H&M and Forever 21 bangles/bracelets, random chandelier earrings, Charles David Awaken wedges
And white jeans…who doesn’t love a pair?
I always thought white jeans would make me look fatter but it depends on the style and the cut.
At J.Crew, the Matchstick jeans are a straight leg style, but I could probably get away with the slimmer Toothpick version as well. At the time when it was on sale at the store, I picked up the 25R (thinking it was the smallest size) but I do fit into a 24S…next time, I know what to look for so I won’t have to get the waist taken in and the bottom hemmed.

That is such a chic outfit!! I love it. Do you mind me asking how tall you are?
I don’t mind at all. I’m 5’1.”
I see what you mean by the armholes being a tad big. I don’t think it is too much of an issue and if you do decide to alter it; it might take away from the beautiful drape that angles from the neck to the cowl in the front.
I’ll be leaving it as is since it looks fine without alterations.
i have given up on BCBG…their stuff is so big. even the xxs doesn’t fit.
I have trouble finding things at BCBG, so I can understand how it’s even harder for you!
I like your hair in these pics. Very chic. Kudos for rocking a short cut, not everyone can pull it off and you do it well. =)
