This is such a classic Maje dress! I feel like this is their signature style. Lovely and elegant dress. I prefer a slightly more fitted look but this is a great option for a nice night out or the office. It was also very easy to put on which is a nice bonus. I thoughtContinue reading “Short Button-Up Dress”

Striped Shirt Dress
This one was a little odd. I thought it was going to be a wrap shirt dress with a cinched waist which usually is flattering for me. This one was … weird. I didn’t like that that the tie was clearly the arms of a shirt, it just looked a tad bizarre. Sizing is fine,Continue reading “Striped Shirt Dress”
Striped Shirt Dress
Cute dress but there was a weird construction nuance – the top was quite baggy but the skirt in the lower waist area was tight. I think the look like that they were going for was “french tucked shirt and fitted skirt” which is clever but it probably requires a very specific body shape forContinue reading “Striped Shirt Dress”
Tamia Dress
Just love how romantic this one is and thought I’d recommend.Sezane,,$230,5’1-5’2 5’1-5’2,Dress,French Brands All Reviews,Sezane
Pippa Dress
I had originally gotten the long pippa dress, which I found to be too long. I ended up returning it and getting the pippa short dress instead. I’m 5’3” and think the length is perfect (some might find it too short but I usually like my dresses this length). I think it drapes the sameContinue reading “Pippa Dress”
High-Waist Airlift Legging
i saw some reviews online that disparaged these leggings and these have been a true staple in my closet for the last year! i got these leggings not just to work out but also to wear around the house/errands. i found the fabric to be really durable. i probably wash these leggings in the machineContinue reading “High-Waist Airlift Legging”
Knit Maxi Dress
I was on the fence about this dress. Shape was great, and the knit fabric was lovely – it hugged all the right spots and made me feel sexy but also elegant. However, I think the buttons all the way up to the neck made me feel like a priest. I tried opening the buttonsContinue reading “Knit Maxi Dress”
Matchmaker Mini Dress
Very whimsical. I would totally wear this to a wedding or some other fancy formal event. The bust area might be challenging for smaller ladies because it is kind of hard to fill it out. I was also really surprised to see pockets. Gorgeous dress, perfect for a garden wedding or summer shower or something.Continue reading “Matchmaker Mini Dress”
Waverly Shirt Playsuit
Luxury pajamas. I think that sums up this playsuit. To be fair, the fabric which is 100% silk truly felt like heaven on my skin. It was extremely comfortable and as is Zimmerman’s custom, the print is really a standout. It is quite see-through so definitely don’t wear black underwear. Just FYI, I didn’t findContinue reading “Waverly Shirt Playsuit”
Tranquility Mini Dress
To call this dress stunning does not do it justice. It’s made out of this really beautiful linen fabric with the most glorious print. I really fell in love with it but the price tag and the fact that it’s not really versatile jolted me back to reality. I couldn’t really picture myself wearing thisContinue reading “Tranquility Mini Dress”
Knit Midi Dress
Love the shape of the dress but I think the color is really unforgiving. The drape and fabric are all lovely but you really need have truly seamless undewear and any lumps/bumps are visible. Also, I love that the brand website says “midi” but on my 5’6 frame, it is most definitely a maxi dress.Continue reading “Knit Midi Dress”
Strappy Sandals
I never tried buying shoes from Sandro before but I saw these in the store and as soon as I tried them on, I was done! It comes in white and I tried those on but honestly white just didn’t seem practical for someone who lives in NYC so I settled for black. The lowContinue reading “Strappy Sandals”
Maggie II Asterisk Pumps
i got these pumps awhile back but i’ve been seeing them pop-up on second-hand stores so maybe this could help someone who’s considering these or this brand. it was my first vivienne westwood purchase and i couldn’t be happier. they’re very comfy and eye-catching without being garish. i wear them to the office all theContinue reading “Maggie II Asterisk Pumps”
Wicked Pocket Legging
I love these leggings. Sized up to S as usual with buffbunny leggings, but the thigh area for this one might be a bit big, there are some wrinkles. But I can’t imagine getting an xs because the waist is quite snug already. The pockets are useful for holding my phone. Just wearing casually butContinue reading “Wicked Pocket Legging”
Solitta Dress
Fun concept but it’s kind of see-through even with a lining. I’m 5’3, 110lbs. Usually wear XS/2 in Sezane; will size down to XXS for knits as they run large.Sezane,size 2,,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,Dress,French Brands,Size 2 All Reviews,Sezane
Tabata Skirt
Gorgeous print and I just want to keep twirling in it 😅. Probably needs a belt to make it sit higher on my body. I’m 5’3, 110lbs. Usually wear XS/2 for Sezane but will size down for knits to XXS.Sezane,size XS,,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,Bottoms,French Brands,Size XS,Skirt All Reviews,Sezane
Felicien Top in Cream + Rome Shorts in Denim
Shirt is great quality! Just need to find a way to make it not fold up. Rome shorts are very thick and stiff but I like the look of them. Not sure if the “ballooning” on the bottom is unflattering for my already bottom-heavy body though. I’m 5’3, 110lbs. Usually size XS/2 in Sezane althoughContinue reading “Felicien Top in Cream + Rome Shorts in Denim”
Pippa Dress
Love how it drapes and the material is softer and thicker than I expected! Wondering if it’s too long on me though. Ordered the short version and will soon see! I’m 5’3, 110lbs. Usually wear XS/2 in Sezane; will do XXS for knits as their knits are pretty oversized.Sezane,size XS,,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,Dress,French Brands,Size XS All Reviews,Sezane
