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

    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!

    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!
