I love shopping online, but I’m not really one for the hunt. In other words, I’d rather NOT spend hours searching, adding things to my cart and then trying to figure out what I actually want to (bite the bullet and) buy. So I’d much rather stick to one site that has several options and everything I’m looking for. Obviously, there are going to be times where I’ll have to venture off into the where-did-the-time-go/black-hole interwebs.
But if I can help it, I’d rather buy it from Nordstrom. And if you’re wondering….yes, they’re sponsoring this post (thank you, Nordstrom!); but I promise you (!) I would be saying this regardless. (slash I would NEVER say or wear anything if I wasn’t fully behind it.)
But even so, how can anyone NOT love Nordstrom?! Because let’s be honest, we all want great customer service, a variety of price points, and several brands to choose from (oh, and easy smeeeezy returns! …do I sound like a used car salesman? ha!) Plus, Nordstrom is one of the only department stores that has kept their petite department alive and strong 😉
Speaking of petite clothing at Nordstrom, I’m actually teaming up with them and putting together two outfits including items from their petite sweater collection. So what does “petite” mean anyway? Confession: I didn’t know until a few months ago when I looked it up (ha!). Don’t judge, but I thought petite was referring to small women – like skinny and just smaller in general (I guess I never put two and two together when I would see size 12 petite or XL petite….) But actually, it just means shorter women 😉 To be exact, the good ‘ole Wikipedia explains that a “petite size is a standard clothing size designed to fit women of shorter height, typically 160 cm (5 ft 3 in) or less.”
Do any of you wear petite clothing? I know some of you have got to be shorties! Have you tried and noticed a difference?! Please, do tell us your thoughts! (I LOVE hearing from y’all!)
