I have been having difficulty doing an stylebook post because I have been having some kind of fashion crisis! I just can't seem to come up with an outfit for the life of me! What's up w/that? I am getting bored with the background settings in my house and I am not brave enough to venture out into the streets.  Unfortunately I am not lucky enough to have a photographer do it for me. So here is my first attempt this year to take pictures outside:

I have these gorgeous jasmine bushes that bloom every Spring and seriously smell delicious but then the flowers fall off so I had to try to take pictures using them as back drop! Unfortunately, I didn't take into account that the grass would be soft and my poor Ann Taylor pumps sunk into the ground (ewww). I couldn't stand straight because each heel was sinking as I was trying to pose.

Dress: Cache Coral Racerback dress- size Petite (similar here)

Vest: H & M lace- size XS (very similar here)

Shoes: Ann Taylor perfect pump in saddle brown- size 5 (buy here)

Necklace: Pearl necklace tied in a knot- (similar here)

Purse: Chanel Summer Beige Flap (cheaper version here)
Ring: Forever 21 (similar here)

This lace vest has been worn twice already so I have to thank Jean for discovering it at H & M! This is why I love reading blogs because you may find things that otherwise you may have passed on.  Some people have a problem with petites/bloggers buying and posting the same items but personally I LOVE seeing the same items on different people. Isn't that why we all blog or read blogs? To share our finds and help ourselves and others look and dress better.  We all wear it differently and have different body types albeit our petite stature. I personally am flattered when people buy the same items as me. I have some readers who email me and let me know that they copy my outfits for work exactly and that couldn't make me happier. It's the reason why I enjoy blogging so much is to help others while also helping myself look and feel great!

If you are looking for a similar lace vest, I was able to find the EXACT same one at Nordstrom rack for $14.97 which is $10 cheaper than the H & M version. I tweeted about it but they didn't have any small sizes but just FYI :)

I blogged about this Cache dress last year and it's super old but the fit is amazing! It actually was hanging in my closet un-worn until I started blogging and realized how cute and petite-friendly it was. I haven't been to Cache in a million years but have 2 dresses from there that are super tiny. 

Coral is a super HOT color this season and I am awaiting my Amrita Singh coral necklace from Hautelook (so excited)! Click here for an invite:)

Who else has bought this lace vest? And how do you style it?
