bag collection
This is my collection of Mark Cross bags. I wanted to share a review because I love their bags and always think the brand deserves more recognition than it gets! Just a few things to be aware of before buying: 1) All the bags are lined in either red nappa leather or suede! It usedContinue reading “bag collection”
FIGUREKNIT™ CONFIDENTIAL DRESS
Stunning dress and really great quality. The fabric is thick and it hides any lumps and bumps. Just a few things to note – I probably should’ve sized to an M instead of a S (I’m usually an M on the bottom but the M was sold out and I thought I could swing it).Continue reading “FIGUREKNIT™ CONFIDENTIAL DRESS”
Max Shirt
Site says take usual size but I think it runs large. It’s 100% cotton but it feels like linen. Also, I’m a little disappointed because the fabric is see-through (need the proper undergarments) and it’s quite itchy…
FigureKnit™ Commons Top
I love this top. I wouldn’t call it breathable. It’s double lined, and a heavier, structured material that cinches at the waist. It looks perfect with a pair of low rise pants (I’m wearing the vida pants from reformation). It’s a form fitting top that zips in the back. It has a little bit ofContinue reading “FigureKnit™ Commons Top”
Bow Embellished Cut-Out Sweater
I LOVE THIS SWEATER! It’s very comfortable, chic, and the bow details are especially cute. One thing to note is that you definitely do need to wear something underneath otherwise you’re pretty exposed. I’m wearing an M which is my normal size in French brands (usually size up from the mass market brands and alsoContinue reading “Bow Embellished Cut-Out Sweater”
Azura Blouse
Had high hopes for this one ever since seeing it on talesjournal stories on Instagram. It looked pretty online, but in real life the fabric feels flimsy and the whole style (and the fact that the fabric is really thin and see through) gives H&M a bit unfortunately. It’s a return for me similarly toContinue reading “Azura Blouse”
Lyndhurst Jacket
The Fold London is my staple for workwear. This is one of their signature jackets, the Lyndhurst. It runs pretty true to size although if you want to layer, you may want to size up. The fit is great, the silhouette is very classic/classy and is great for work to night. Highly recommend this brandContinue reading “Lyndhurst Jacket”
Pepper Euroflax™ Premium Linen Jumpsuit
TOTALLY not my typical style! But I saw it online and had to have it! Got a bunch of compliments on it too so I’m very happy with this whimsical style! Just a few notes I didn’t realize until I got it: – there are shoulder pads. nothing crazy but something ot keep in mindContinue reading “Pepper Euroflax™ Premium Linen Jumpsuit”
Classic Bracelet
I love my bracelet. It’s so elegant. It’s like wearing a combination of jewelry version with a repetto ballet shoe which is the jewelry of ballet shoes. I also love supporting a small business founded by a Parisian woman!
Emile Cardigan
I recently got a work promotion so decided to treat myself a little!! I’ve always had my eye on Sézane, but was always hesitant to pull the trigger. I ordered the Emile cardigan (size M) in multicolored yellow/green! I was confused about getting a S or M, but I decided to go with M asContinue reading “Emile Cardigan”
Pippa Dress
FYI I usually wear 8/10 or medium and 5’4”. This was the dress that introduced me to Sezane, but it didn’t work for my body type back then. Now that I’ve lost some weight, I gave it another try. I tried both medium and large and thought medium was too form fitting. Large skims alongContinue reading “Pippa Dress”
Ron Top
FYI I usually wear 8/10 or medium and 5’4”. All the pics are in M except for the last one which is L. I didn’t care for it for the longest time until I tried it in store on a whim. It’s not my usual style, but I was surprised how much I like it.Continue reading “Ron Top”
Giselle Top
FYI I usually wear 8/10 or medium and 5’4”. I’m just so in love with the unique design and delicate details. I tried the large first – and it hung like how it looks on the model – but I prefer how medium fits me. The cotton material is very comfortable and not flimsy. TheContinue reading “Giselle Top”
Off-white Richelieu Midi Dress
Saw this on one of the store associates and it looked so cute on her but it just wasn’t my favorite. Just isn’t flattering on me. I think it’s also the skirt felt very voluminous which didn’t flatter my body shape. Also, the midi cut didn’t look great either.
Crepe Knit Collar Dress
This brand is a must-have for any professional corporate woman. Some of this brand’s dresses feels very heavy but this one is quite comfortable. I’m a big fan of dresses since it makes it easy to get dressed in the morning and this one is also great to accessorize. Just FYI, there are small shoulderContinue reading “Crepe Knit Collar Dress”
Hyde Satin Mini Dress
Just a heads up, the quality control on this dress seems to be non-existent. The website is not letting me post a review.
