I ALMOST bit the bullet on this one. I thought the shape was super flattering. Love the square neck and the fabric is thick enough to hide lumps and bumps but stretchy enough that it’s quite comfortable. I also really liked the flared skirt but it was a bit TOO flared, if that makes sense.Continue reading “Short Patterned Knit Dress”

Short Knit Dress
I have some knit dresses from Maje and this one was a total miss. The fabric was not the really nice quality knit that I’m used to. Honestly it felt like really cheap fabric that you would get from Zara or Forever 21 (RIP). As a result, the shape was not flattering at all. Also,Continue reading “Short Knit Dress”
Contrast Panel Fit and Flare Maxi Dress
Mmmm NOPE. My streak of no-good Me+Em maxi dresses continues! Really nice fabric, which this brand is known for, but I always think that this brand is really made for long and lean body shapes. I’m 5’5ish so not super tall and something about the shoulder area kind of bothered me. I felt like itContinue reading “Contrast Panel Fit and Flare Maxi Dress”
Short Draped Dress
Nice dress but one of those styles where it’s hard to envision wearing it on many occasions. I like the sheer sleeves and I like that the decolletage area isn’t sheer so it’s a little bit more modest but honestly it just felt too much like a young woman’s party dress. Not something I couldContinue reading “Short Draped Dress”
Adele Dress
I wanted to review the Adele dress since it’s not for me. I dislike how it lays on my body, the feeling of the fabric, and the length of the sleeves. I’m in love with this print, so I thought I’d be in love, but I just don’t feel good in it. I ordered theContinue reading “Adele Dress”
Ismene Dress
Very comfortable and flattering dress. The back has smocking so it’s got plenty of stretch and is quite comfortable. Having said that, the vibe felt quite young and I do feel like this is the kind of style you can really get anywhere for much less. I do like the details like the little rufflesContinue reading “Ismene Dress”
Daniela Silk Dress
Ugh I LOVE THIS DRESS! Such a classic! The fabric was also glorious (silk). This is very high on my potential shopping list for a formal event. True to size and I like that while formfitting, it wasn’t like a clinging dress that shows all the lumps and bumps. It is quite long though soContinue reading “Daniela Silk Dress”
Fine Pointelle Knit Maxi Dress
I thought this dress was really nice but it was hard to see what occasion I would wear this at. I would imagine this could be really nice resortwear perhaps but I didn’t think I could pull it off. I definitely think this hews to the Me + Em ethos of you kind of haveContinue reading “Fine Pointelle Knit Maxi Dress”
Trellis Floral Print Midi Dress + Belt
Oh. No. Just no. I feel like you have to be very long and lean to pull this off. I look like I’m wearing a highly elaborate Amish nightgown. The collar conceptually looks cool but it looks puerile on me. The print is really beautiful, however, I truly struggle how one can pay $500 forContinue reading “Trellis Floral Print Midi Dress + Belt”
Marin Dress
I’m 168cm and 58kg. Size 38 (US 6) is a bit snug; I probably should have sized up to be more comfortable. I have two other Gabin dresses in 38 and they are fine but I would suggest sizing up in this style. Rouje in general does run a little small.ALLY Shoes,8,$325,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Emerging Designers,Pumps,Shoes,Size 8Continue reading “Marin Dress”
Gabin Dress
I‘m 168cm and 58kg. I have two of the Gabin dresses and I love the cut. Size 38 is the perfect size (note: Sezane tends to run large, Maje runs small, and Rouje in between depending on the item). My usual size is 36 in tops and 38 in bottoms.Rouje,size 6,,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Size 6 All Reviews,Rouje
Raquel Dress
I call this the safari dress – I don’t know why but it looks like something one would wear on a safari 😀 Anyways, I definitely think I should’ve sized up because the chest area was definitely too tight. I liked the shape of it and the fabric was this interestingly soft and shiny fabricContinue reading “Raquel Dress”
Natura Buttoned Mini Dress
Beautiful dress! Felt very luxe, the fabric and the print is truly out of the ordinary. Worth every penny! I would say the dress runs true to size. I’m 5’8 and 120lbs (37″ hips).Zimmerman,size 2,,5’7-5’8 5’7-5’8,Dress,Size 2 All Reviews,Zimmerman

Blue Tile Dream Sleeveless Maxi Dress
almost bit the bullet on this one. ultimately decided not to because the straps wouldn’t tighten anymore and i felt like i needed a little bit more support in the bust area. but this print is definitely super versatile and could be a good summer dress. it was very comfortable as well. just didn’t wantContinue reading “Blue Tile Dream Sleeveless Maxi Dress”
Orange Chic Pears Organic Cotton Mini Dress
super fun dress! i like that the dress has ties at the straps so it’s adjustable to your needs. i wasn’t a particular fan of this particular print but i might go for another pattern in the same shape. i did appreciate that the color does line up pretty well with the print you seeContinue reading “Orange Chic Pears Organic Cotton Mini Dress”
Yellow Delicate Fruit Garden Organic Cotton Mini Dress
i’ve been hankering after this dress for weeks. i got a bunch of instagram ads from this brand and i saw this particular dress. i have to say, it was a bit of a letdown… i think it was the combo of too much bright color, bold print, and the ruffles is just overwhleming. also,Continue reading “Yellow Delicate Fruit Garden Organic Cotton Mini Dress”
