Lookbook: LOFT Petite Patterned Flutter Shift Dress- size 00p

Happy Friday everyone!!! Still working on my photos from Bora Bora so I wanted to share this dress that I just got during my pop in at LOFT. I am going through some major shopping withdrawal so I just had to go in there on my way to work. Much to my surprise- I found tons of 00p items still left in the 40% racks! Yippee!
Dress: LOFT Flutter Shift Dress- size 00p (on sale HERE) *plus 40% off
Belt: H & M gray suede belt- size XS (similar HERE)
Shoes: Ann Taylor Granite Suede Pumps- size 5 (sold HERE)

I was rushing because the sun was going down and before you know it- I would be taking pictures in the dark outside....LOL I was pretty panicked!!! 

I didn't even try this dress on in-store...so I was hoping it was going to fit and woo hoo - it fits!! W/out a belt, it looks a bit funny but I figured I'd throw on this gray belt to give it some shape and I liked how it turned out. The length is just perfect for me and the flutter sleeves are adorable!!! 
It's hard to tell but the pattern is pink and white subtle swirls- super cute. 
I love that I can wear this to work and as a fun dress. Got it on sale for $69.99   with an additional $40% off so it came to around $41- not bad for a cute LOFT dress!

I was pleased that the arm  holes weren't too big, most LOFT dresses are hit and miss for me. The neckline is  conservative so you can wear to work- which is perfect for me!

I also got these items while I was there:
1. Gray Cowl Neck Sweater ( I LOVE sweater dresses for Fall/Winter)
2. Petite Flutter Tee (got in pink and green)
I also got a jacket, another older ruffle top on major clearance - all of which I cannot find online so it must be really old items but all were 00P or XXSP- shocker those sizes were still left. Maybe they were waiting for me:) Stay tuned for those posts!!!
Look how different this dress looks online:
Doesn't even look like the same dress huh? The neckline looks like a cowl neck on the model but straight on me- strange! The sleeves even look a bit different too.  And it's interesting how they styled it!! I wanted to keep it simple so I just added a belt and simple accessories- which do you like better- the way the model is wearing it or just simple?
