Wardrobe basics I buy over and over again!

Camisole (Kohl’s): small - built in shelf bra, adjustable straps. I size up in it.

White t-shirt (Quince): xs - light stretch, perfect as a base layer or on its own.

Socks (Amazon): fit my size 5 feet perfectly!

Bra (EBY): xs - washes beautifully, doesn’t lose the cups and is so comfortable I can wear it to sleep!

I put six pairs of linen and linen blend pants to the wash and wear test. Here is what I found!

I washed the pants on cold, hung them to try for the majority of the drying time and finished drying on delicate, low heat. Every single one shrank to some degree.

The linen options wrinkled along the seams once I put them in the dryer. You’ll get the best result skipping the dryer with linen pants.

The linen blend things wrinkled the least, but shrank the most.

Madewell: xs short - sized up (28”, shrank to 27”) 100% linen
Athleta: xxs petite - tts (28”, shrank to 27”) 100% linen
Quince: xs 28” - tts (28”, shrank to 27”) 100% linen
Abercrombie: xxs short - borderline size up (28”, shrank to 27”) 55% linen 45% viscose
Target: xs short - tts (28”, shrank to 26”) 55% linen 45% rayon
Amazon: xs - tts (25”, shrank to 22”) linen and cotton (percentages not given)

White t-shirts: xs
Sandals: tts

My measurements for reference: I’m 4’10” and 105lbs. My bust, waist, and hip measurement is 32”, 24”, and 36”.

A closer look at the cotton jersey Quince t-shirts. These are some of my personal favorite tops that I wear often but I get a lot of questions abut them so here are a few answers to common questions.

These tops are stretchy and have a slim fit, you may want to size up if you don’t like a close fit. (I’m wearing xs) I typically wear these tucked in, untucked they come to my mid hip.

I’m wearing a nude bra that matches my skin color with them here, no other layers and I wouldn’t consider them to be see through. However, you can see how over my pants you can see the print of the pants, so the color of the undergarments matters with these tops.

I find these to wash well, of the two styles I prefer the boatneck style and wear it the most often.

Pants Blue and White (Quince): xs (28” inseam option)
Pants Red and Whjte (Target): xs short (28” inseam)

A wear test of the Bella Wide Leg jeans from Quince!

They loosen some with wear but don’t bag out. Between the wide and relaxed straight I find the relaxed straight holds a little better because the denim is thicker.

Jeans: 24 x 28” in midnight blue
Sweater: xs in speckled beige
Jacket: xs

#LTKPetite

Put one of my favorite jeans to the wear test - the Bella Relaxed Straight from Quince. They do loosen a little but they don’t bag out.

Petite 24 - Harvey Wash - tts relaxed fit
10 3/8" rise, 19" leg opening, 28" inseam 99% cotton

I noted loosening with this pair mostly in my thighs. They held shape across the hips. They started out a little more relaxed on me so I think that made some loosening more noticeable.

Continuing to enhance my denim reviews with wear tests! Here is a wear test of the Perfect Vintage Wide Leg Crop jeans from Madewell in the standard length.

They have a 10 7/8 rise and a 27” inseam in standard. I’ll also have a petite review coming your way.

This pair started out a little roomy on me so I noted loosening mostly at the thighs. The jeans held at my hips and didn’t lose shape. Although they’re a little roomy it’s not enough to size down.
