Woes of being XS

I've had my $100 gift card to Holt Renfrew for quite a while now (it was a Christmas gift!), but I finally thought I would have the chance to use it yesterday on a very pretty mint green Alice + Olivia Lauren Blouson Dress (which is sold out online, and which explains why I can't find a larger photo): Because of Holt Renfrew's Summer Sale, this dress...

Over the past couple of seasons, Chloé has impressed me with its ability to mix feminine style with minimalistic, simple designs.  I definitely consider Chloé one of my favourite labels.  So when I was asked to pick up a Chloé handbag for a friend, I was more excited than the two previous times when she asked for a Louis Vuitton and Chanel...
