Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the questions we get most about how Jersey Girl Glam works, what we sell, how to shop the closet, and how to navigate fashion & fit — sizing, fit, capsules, color, and comfort.
Site & Order
We don’t carry our own inventory — every piece lives on Amazon, so sizing follows each brand’s chart. Open any product from The Edits or Shop My Closet, then tap through to the Amazon listing and use the brand’s size chart before you buy. I also call out fit notes (runs small, oversized, true to size) in the post body whenever I can.
Returns go through Amazon, not us — we’re an editorial site, not a store. Whatever Amazon’s standard return window is for the item you bought is the one that applies; start at Amazon’s Returns help page to print a label or start a return. For the legal version of how this site works, see our disclosure.
Yes — short version: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. That means if you click a link from this site and end up buying something on Amazon, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. The full, FTC-compliant text — including how we choose what we recommend and who we partner with — lives on our disclosure page.
Amazon does. Once you click through to a product, the listing page shows the shipping options for your address — Prime, standard, and delivery estimates. We don’t see or control those estimates, so the listing is always the source of truth. Anything you order ships from Amazon’s warehouse, not from us.
Start at The Edits for curated looks styled around a theme. Each post links out to every Amazon product I’m wearing or recommending — so you can shop the whole look, or jump straight to a single piece. When you want to browse my actual closet — pieces I own and reach for again — head to Shop My Closet, where everything is organized by category. A few recent favorites: PRETTYGARDEN Cable Knit Oversized Sweater (Mist Blue), Cicy Bell Wide Leg Jeans (Light Blue), Adokoo Lace Up Sneakers (White), and Angel Kiss Corduroy Backpack (Khaki).
Fashion & Fit
There’s no universal sizing standard in fashion — every brand builds its own size chart based on its own fit model and target customer, so a Medium at one brand can match a Small or Large at another. Fabric also matters: stretch fabrics fit more forgivingly than rigid ones, even within the same brand and size.
Zara generally runs small, especially in tailored pieces like blazers, trousers, and dresses. Knits and basic items tend to have more give and run closer to true to size.
Old Navy has historically run large and somewhat unpredictably, though the brand has worked to improve sizing consistency in recent years. Checking the specific item’s reviews is more reliable than relying on the size label alone.
A capsule wardrobe is a small, intentional set of clothing pieces designed to mix and match with each other, so most tops pair with most bottoms. The goal is to reduce decision fatigue and eliminate the “closet full of clothes, nothing to wear” problem.
There’s no fixed number, but a workable starter capsule typically includes 8-10 core pieces — a versatile pair of jeans, a blazer, a neutral sweater, a button-down, one dress, one outerwear piece, and 1-2 pairs of shoes — chosen so they combine into 5+ distinct outfits.
Product photos can’t show insole cushioning, arch support, or how a shoe’s structure interacts with foot shape, so comfort claims from photos alone are unreliable. Reading reviews that specifically mention all-day wear or foot pain is a better comfort signal than styling photos.
Product photos are frequently color-corrected or shot under studio lighting that shifts the actual shade, so the safest check is reading recent customer reviews and looking at customer-submitted photos, which are typically shot in normal lighting.
“True to size” means the item’s labeled size matches standard body measurement charts for that size, with no significant runs small or large adjustment needed. It’s brand- and category-specific, so a brand described as true to size in dresses may still run small in denim.
