Retail Store Comeback

Okay, okay I know. Abercrombie & Fitch is soooo 2000. But when I walked into a store just to kill some time after not stepping foot in one for 10+ years I realized the company had made some aesthetic changes and more importantly, their logo wasn’t plastered on every piece of clothing they were trying to sell. Don’t worry, the store still smells like they clean the floors with their own cologne (and the nostalgia came rushing back) but as I looked around, I noticed some really cute, casual pieces and I decided to indulge. Turns out I was able to get lucky with finding options in petite sizes that didn’t need altering, since their clothes still run on the small side. Maybe Abercrombie has some new found potential after all? You be the judge.

This floral green midi dress and the orange jumpsuit are gems that I can wear for casual or a fun cocktail hour. I’m shocked that the length of the midi dress is perfect on my 4’11” stature and the jumpsuit isn’t loose in the upper body, torso and straps.

I bought another silk bodysuit from Abercrombie you can see in this post as well
