I just received this in the mail and am pretty disappointing that the color in real life is different from the deep burgundy color on the app. An FYI for you all. Including the original product pic for comparison as well. In terms of sizing, I think it’s fairly TTS. I bought an S andContinue reading “Basile Cardigan”

Scott Trench Coat

I am 5’6 128lbs and I ordered a 36! It is a bit roomy but I quite like how it fits. Depending on your dimensions I think it comes down to preference- if you want it more fitted or less. I find the belt allows for shape if thats what im looking for, but IContinue reading “Scott Trench Coat”
Harry Coat

Sézane coats are my guilty pleasure, they make such beautiful winter stuff! Note – the belt is also Sezane. The Harry coat is quite oversized. It’s a size 8 (36 FR) – I went down 2 sizes! But it also depends on how you like the fit, I didn’t want a slouchy fit xSezane,6,$405,5’9-5’10 5’9-5’10,Coat,Coats/Jackets,FrenchContinue reading “Harry Coat”
Henri Coat

Received the Henri coat yesterday & loving it! Sizing is on the generous size – could probably size down by one if you’re thinking of getting it.Sezane,6,$370,5’9-5’10 5’9-5’10,Coat,Coats/Jackets,French Brands,Size 6 All Reviews,Coat,Jackets,Sezane
Will Jacket

I’m 5’2 and got this XXS. Love love love! Definite keeper. I always thought the Will jacket looked too oversized for me but then I saw it on other petite ladies and decided to give it a go. Glad I did because it’s lovely!Sezane,XXS,$145,5’1-5’2 5’1-5’2,Coats/Jackets,French Brands,Jacket,Size XXS All Reviews,Jackets,Sezane
Betty Cardigan

My first Sezane purchase, the Betty Cardigan, and I’m in love . Also, it came out of the box smelling SO GOOD. Note – the buttons are gold but a light gold so not very yellow. This is an xxs. I’m 5’0, 105lbs. Fits perfectly. Sezane,XXS,$170,
Mederick Coat

After so much contemplation whether to get Mederick Coat in olive green as it is €350 ($485 in the US!!), I bit the bullet. I am 160cm (5’2), usually size S. I took the coat in 34 (US 4) and it does have oversized look hence it looks better on me when wearing heels whichContinue reading “Mederick Coat”
Will Jacket

Will Leopard – I thought I didn’t need it in my life and didn’t understand the fuss about it, however didn’t take it off since its arrival. Yes, it is an item between jacket and shirt which I wasn’t sure about, but I am finally a Will convert. Taken S for my regular S. IContinue reading “Will Jacket”
Gaspard Cardigan

Cardigan is a bit scratchy and more bulky than I expected. I sized down to an XS which made it a bit better. Note – my skin is not super sensitive so some people might find the fabric to be itchy but it wasn’t a concern for me. Showing below: light beige and ecru/gold.Sezane,XS,$120, Cardigan,Coats/Jackets,FrenchContinue reading “Gaspard Cardigan”
Miller Dickey Jacket

This is one of VB’s bestsellers and is now a staple in my closet. The fabric has a little stretch. I love the dickey feature – you can buy the separate hoodie dickey (like this one) and zip up into the blazer for added warmth (excellent feature for women who are always freezing in theContinue reading “Miller Dickey Jacket”
Beadnell Wax Jacket

I think the Beadnell runs pretty true to size, it’s supposed to be pretty forgiving. If you want it more generous for ample layers or are in between sizes I think you could go one up but no more – it is a boxy fit. I can comfortably fit a sweater with this; however, aContinue reading “Beadnell Wax Jacket”
Scott Trench Coat

I am 5’8, 140lbs, 36-30-38. It has a nice weight to it and the camel colour is really nice in real life. I’m not sure about sizing and am considering sizing up. Note, in the second photo below, I am wearing a corduroy blazer underneath it and it remains quite comfortable.Sezane,10,$305,5’7-5’8 5’7-5’8,Coats/Jackets,French Brands,Size 10,Trench AllContinue reading “Scott Trench Coat”
Scott Trench Coat

I got a size US4 (EU 36). I typically wear a size 4, sometimes size 2. Since I live in a hot climate, I didn’t feel the need to size up to fit bulky sweaters, and I think this is a good fit. There’s a little extra room, but probably not enough for a thickContinue reading “Scott Trench Coat”
Forever Belted Longline Mac

Background: I was (and currently still) in need of a great spring/fall coat. I absolutely loved this coat but it was hard for me to stomach such a big purchase without trying on at least a number of other styles but this one is still definitely in the running. FIT: I tried on the USContinue reading “Forever Belted Longline Mac”
Vie Tailored Tie-Waist Blazer

Purchased for $321 (originally $535). Felt very cool in this (FYI it’s a two piece suit but I couldn’t find the equivalent pants online). This is a classic case of an outfit that didn’t look very flattering online but works in person. ,,,
Chenille Knit Cropped Cardigan

Purchased on April 2022; reviewed on February 2023. TLDR: Sandro is a classic favorite of mine. Not everything is to my taste (e.g. oversized sweater with a deep V that says Sandro – huh?) but I always find nuggets that I will wear over and over again. The background to this purchase is that IContinue reading “Chenille Knit Cropped Cardigan”
