If you’ve been following my blog, you know we do a lot of mommy and me fashion here. Just for the record , it’s not everyday we try to look like twins but once in a great while we do because it’s fun ! Especially when we have matching clothes from Shein. Olivia got the hang of it since i kind of match or color coordinate our outfits since she was still a toddler. As for now, she also think it’s cute and fun until it won’t be, who knows when. But regardless, we are just soaking up every moment . Every bonding time we have as mother and daughter. I was super close to my mom , we bond all the time. I want me and my daughter to have that kind of relationship as well.
So today, I’m sharing a round up of our summer outfits from Shein. They have a lot of mommy and me selections ! Use my code 3Aprill15 for an extra 15% off any purchase today until 9/30/2019.
When we go out wearing our mommy and me outfits, we get compliments all the time and my daughter loves that especially now that she is a little grown and more aware of things around her. There are days she would even suggest we go twinning. It’s so cute.
Thank you so much for reading and have a great day!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Wish List
GloPro Microneedling Regeneratio Head-to-toe Glo Set – I always wanted a Microneedling set and I’m super excited for this. It’s always good to invest for skincare. Mirconeedling may help address wrinkles, acne, scarring, and stretch marks. Microneedlingincreases the production of collagen and other healing factors by causing trauma to the skin. Collagen is an essential protein that helps keep the skin looking youthful, with a firm, smooth, and stretchy texture.
Blondo Nina Waterproof Suede Boots – I’ve heard a lot of great things about this brand and their waterproof suede boots. I would like to give it a try. A good suede boots is a must for Midwest fall weather.
Sam Edelman Hiltin Knee Boots – I love a good knee boots for fall to go with flowy skirts and dresses , then layered it with comfy cozy sweater and cardigan. The tan color goes with anything.
Kenneth Cole New York – I love the style especially that removable faux fur gives a little extra statement. I’ll have to check if it fits good on me, other than that i love the vintage vibe.
Barefoot Dreams cardigan – This won’t be the most hight-rated reviewed cardigan in Nordstrom for nothing. So definitely checking this out!
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Favorites
These are some of my favorites and some products that sells out fast. Like i said, most sold out on the first week of early access. So, just get a couple sizes and you can just return the ones you don’t like or fit. Nordstrom do free shipping and returns.
We finally have a pool weather here in Michigan ! It was the longest spring or it seems like it to me. It was cold and raining a lot for the last couple months. I’m so glad we finally have warm weather. Friends, you have no idea how happy we are. We definitely need that sunshine.
To kick off our first few days of summer, we went swimming in the pool right away. Just relaxing and enjoying the beautiful weather. Of course, we wore our Rad Swim swimsuit. It’s one of my favorite swimsuit company that carry mommy and me line. I love the cute styles especially the new arrivals. But most of all i love the fit and quality.
I love twinning with my daughter and she got the hang of it too. I’m sure one day, she don’t want to do matchy and matchy with me anymore but as for now we are both enjoying it. So why not? It’s fun memories.
Thank you so much for reading and have a great day !
It’s been awhile I haven’t posted fashion blog post or any personal blog post in particular. Life has been pretty hectic lately and time management got out of hand. I will announce one day what I have been working on lately. As for now, it’s still on the works on navigating through this new kind of venture. That’s it for now.
In this post I would like to talk about this petite friendly outfit. Standing at 4’11, it is challenging to find cute petite clothes. Not a lot of brands carry petite sizing. The ones i know and also my favorites are Banana Republic, Topshop, Loft , Asos, J.Crew and a new discovery here, Petite Studio. I actually buy more on non-petites because there are so many styles to choose from. It seems like the styles they carry for petites are somehow limited.
Asymmetric top and Paper bag pants
Like for example this top that i bought here is from Zara, it’s actually a crop top but since I have a shorter torso than an average girl, then it fits like a regular top on me. Talking about winning here !
Same goes with my paper bag pants, it’s not petites either. I believe it’s an ankle crop pants but it’s not crop on me because again i’m short. I don’t want ankle crop to begin with since I want that 90’s trousers look. Winning again.
But you see that’s not the case all the time. It’s always a challenge, especially when I shop at Zara. I swear I haven’t bought a dress there yet, the torso are always long. So i always went for separates at Zara’s.
Wide Leg Jeans
I’ve been looking for a wide leg jeans that have that retro fit and not cropped on me. I’m so glad I found this at Gap, I couldn’t believe it. It’s actually an ankle length for a regular girl but obviously not on me and it’s definitely one of my favorite purchase. The only downside, it doesn’t look good on me with sneakers. Either that or I’m just over thinking. Besides i’m not really a sneakers kind of gal.
Mom Jeans for Petites
I’ve been influenced with this mom jeans craze, blame it on Instagram. So i went hunting and I can’t seem to find one that’s great for petites. So glad i found one at Topshop. They carry petite sizing too and their jeans for petites actually have a great fit. No alterations needed plus no weird fit around the waist and butt area. Not trying to be a model but just showing what it fits on a regular everyday woman.
Dresses for Petites
It is challenging to find petite dresses. The styles are limited, not all brands have petite version on all their items. So sometimes I end up shopping on regular size. Just like for example, this dress from Dress the Population. They don’t have petites but the torso of this particular dress fits perfect on me. I wasn’t very particular on the length since i want it to be midi anyway. Again, i got lucky on this one but one sure brand that carry great petite size is Banana Republic and J.Crew dresses. I also shop at junior section for dresses which is also good, but i don’t want to look trying to hard to be a teenybopper. So as much as possible i don’t buy dresses from the juniors section.

If you’ve been a following me for awhile, you know already that i’m a big fan of monochrome outfits. Dressing head to toe with the same color hue may sound not right for some of you. But really, it’s a great way to elevate your look. It actually look chic and sophisticated. If you are petite like me, it will definitely make you look taller. Styling in monochrome gives the illusion of length.So when i received this blazer from Chadwicks, i am in love. I love the romantic shade of pink that is perfect for spring and summer. Also, blazers are my favorite.
In this look, i decided to style the blazer with a trousers in a different shade of pink. The mismatch yet same color hue makes it look interesting and effortless. Sophisticated low-key suiting.
I’m already thinking of more style ideas that would go with this blazer. I’m thinking jeans for casual on the go days and jean shorts for summer. Also great with dresses as well. The possibilities are endless with this pink blazer.
Thank you so much for reading and have a great day!
