{shopping} in the stores…ashley stewart

they didn’t have the peplum blazer in white, so i tried on this really vibrant tourquoise.

 

i am wearing a size 20. it’s cotton and has a nice weight to it. and while i think it 

would be better if the peplum was a little bit longer, i think it’s really cute and fits well.

the salesperson said that the white one in this style hadn’t arrived at the store yet.

after seeing them in person, i initially felt that the second more classic linen blazer was my favorite although it ran a bit small on me. but looking at the pictures, i think i like the peplum one better 

i am wearing a 24 in these pictures, because the 20 was too small
as you can see, the 24 is a too big on me (why the sleeves are rolled up).
i think a 22 would be perfect on me.

while there, i also spotted one of the dresses from this post on chevron style dresses in these two colors.

wearing a 22/24 in this color

wearing a 18/20 in this color

love the prints even more in person 

i also spotted this fantastic floral dress.

note: the website says that this dress is lined but it is only lined at the top.

i have on a 20 in this picture but i would definitely have to go up a size, as i couldn’t zip it up all the way. 

but i love it and would totally rock it.

by this time, i was tired of trying things on, i guess that’s obvious in this pic…lol
