Petite Shopping Haul: Goodies I Got Recently

It was my last b-day celebration of the month so I decided to go shopping! Surprise surprise! :) I didn't find too much but figured I would show everyone what I did manage to buy!
H & M Divided Striped Tank Dress: Size 2 (similar sold HERE)
Sandals: Callisto Nude Wedges- size 5 (most comfortable wedges on the planet)
I have these wedges in nude and black and wear them all the time. I literally can wear them shopping for 10+  hours and my feet are still fine! Bought them last year at Nordstrom's and they still carry them! Comes in all different colors (pewter, bronze, and white)and the leather is super duper soft.

I didn't know how "practical" this dress was but hubby LOVED it on me so he made me get it :) And for $12.95- I figured I could at least get one good wear out of it on the weekends. It's definitely a fitted and sexy (borderline scandalous) dress but I think I can make it work. I think being petite, we can push the envelope on certain clothes. See this dress here on A Fashion Deliberation. I love seeing the same items on different petites- she looks great in it!

 I also go this gold rope H & M belt in XS: (similar sold HERE)
I'm not sure what I will wear with this but it's tiny and was $5.95. I may pair it with a nice white summer dress- excited to see what I can come up with! Forever 21 has a brown/blk braided belt I can't seem to find in stores. It's only $5.80 and similar to this one- I must find it!
(sorry for the horrible Iphone pics)
Here is my latest and greatest find! Theory black jacket at Neimen Marcus Last Call (Outlet). I hardly find anything at this store but decided to dig thru the racks and luckily I did! I didn't think anything of this jacket but when I tried it on, it fit like a GLOVE and even the SA said this jackets been sitting here because it's so tiny, no one can fit into it. They keep marking it down and down so I got it for $50 after all discounts! For a Theory jacket- that's insane! Here's a similar one I found to compare.
I also got another pair of H & M Young (Girls) skinny jeans in a different wash. I usually only like dark rinses and I am super picky about my denim color but this one I really liked when I tried on. Same size as my other H & M dark rinse Girls 11/12. I'll have to shrink them a little bit to make them fit like my other pair but I'm sure it will be in a future post! For $19.95, it's hard to pass up. Since I don't wear casual clothes often enough, I can't justify spending too much for jeans. For any petite ladies in need of skinny jeans- these seem to work for me! I also like these A & E skinny jeans in Vintage wash on sale for $24.90. The 00Short fits me nicely.
(color is taupe- much better in person)(similar style and color HERE)
Here is a pair of Aldo pumps I recently ordered online. It was on sale for the dirt cheap price of $39.99 and there was one size 5 left so I couldn't resist. It's the Arnolda pair just like the black pumps I wear to death so I figured what the heck- why not! They fit a little bit bigger than the old black pair I have which I find strange- not sure if someone stretched them out or Aldo changed their sizing.

I got some more goodies but I'll have to save it for another post! Hope everyone had a good weekend!!!! :)
