I feel like it’s about time to tell you…. how short I am. I’m pretty short. As in Snooki-short. 5 feet 1 inch to be exact. Apparently I must look taller on the blog than in real life? Because more than once when I have met someone that has seen my blog, they follow up the handshake with a “Wow I thought you were taller.” HA thanks.
Yesterday, at Forever 21, my shortness was again brought to my attention. I grabbed a pair of skinny jeans and headed to the dressing room and low and behold the length fits me perfectly! (Note that this NEVER EVER happens. Jeans are almost always a foot too long which requires tailoring or cuffing.) I proudly headed to the check out with the jeans in my hands. As I’m in line, I look down and read the sticker on the jeans….
CAPRI jeans
Yes I kid you not. Capri jeans fit me like regular jeans. I mean I knew I was short but capri-short?? Wow.
On the other hand, jeans (capri or not) for $10.80 is ri-di-cu-lous.

HA! I feel you! At 5’2, I have the SAME problem everywhere! The “cropped” pants at Gap – yeah, regular pants on me. I wrote a post about this a few weeks ago:

Cassandra – I’ve been meaning to get my sister to do a hair tutorial on here! Maybe next week I’ll make it happen!
I must hear about how you make your hair wave that way!
I love your bag! Fossil has been my go to brand for ages and they are only getting better. Even my diaper bag is fossil brand. You look fab, as usual.
