It’s time to leave this signal

november 15, 2009 |

Having my grandparents come over for electricity-work and coffee, made some jewelry, and a bit of hanging around downtown. New tights.

Oh, by the way, I don’t have any clue about my jeans-size at Forever21. I’ve searched for several charts but the thing about them is they always show a different conversion. In European sizes (by that I do not mean Italian or French) I usually have a 38, which resembles about the largest half of a size small (which is 36/38 - at least over here). What size would I have in a range between 24-30?

(In Europe we also have a range from about 26 to 33, don’t misunderstand them for the same sizing please!)

Jacket, purse, belt, shoes: Vintage
Dress: Mango (Cruz collection)
Scarf: H&M
Necklace: Gift
Tights: Topshop

    wow nice tights!
    i think you’d have sth like a 29. cause i am normally a 36 and in that other size i have 28!

    Love the black dress, the lace bolero, the belt, and the necklace. They go so well together! I especially like your blue jacket with them

    do you know your american size (on the 0-14 chart?)
    here, the conversions for pants are:
    0= 25
    2= 26
    4= 27
    6= 28
    8= 29
    10= 30

    0, 2= x small
    4-6 = small
    8-10= medium
    12-14= large
    (for the most part, at least)

    i agree that you look around a 27. usually, forever 21 jeans stretch, though, so keep that in mind!

    Ik vind alles wat je aanhebt heel erg mooi, maar ik vind je hartje het leukst. Is het een tattoo?

  10. tildes on november 16, 2009 21:43

    I like the black shoes with the red lace

    i’m also european and live in the US and from my experience at forever 21 I usually get size 27 pants or size 2 for anything else. I wear 27 inch waist in jeans (like miss sixty, diesel, etc) and I’m usually a size 38 at H&M. does that help?!
    good luck and love the blog!
