Talbots Petites

Pretty well-​made but still much older than my look and taste. 4 stars for customer service. I’m stinkin’ short — but with an odd long legs short torso short waist configuration. Which means I’m arms and legs with broad shoulders, a pumpkin head and bug eyes.
The young saleswoman kept watching me… eventually she would mention she had sized me up upon entering — gauging I may be in between midget and mondo sizes. She was right… even their longest and closest thing to boot cut was barely below the ankle, but at least the waist was just right and not below my armpits.
So she tells me to go across the path to the land of the giant people Talbot’s…where the service was horrid. Then I go to everywhere from Macy’s and Nordstrom’s to Banarepublic and some other random names on the kiosk only to go back to the Talbot’s Petites store to buy some dressier pants to go with some cool tops I found at the other places.
My first purchase from a Talbot’s. My God. What is Marin County making me resort to… I was even gravitating to flat loafers at Macy’s shoes… h.e.l.p…m.e.
