Maxi skirts aren’t really my thing but I thought this pattern was so whimsical BUT I noticed two things – 1) I don’t like how the pattern doesn’t line up at the seams. I know some people don’t care about this but it just feels… sloppy? And 2) the product pic makes the skirt seemContinue reading “Louella Skirt”

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”
High Rise Iaradis Tweed Shorts
These shorts are so fun! And I found them to be super flattering. The zip is on the side and is pretty fitted. I love the button detail. I tried on 38 which was fit perfectly.Maje,size 6,,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Size 6 Maje
Dorotha Dress
I was considering getting a 4 or 6 but ended up getting the 6. I’m not sure if it’s the right decision, since I wish it was a bit more fitted around the waist to show off my curves better but I’m not sure if it’s just the cut of the dress. I am absolutelyContinue reading “Dorotha Dress”
Honore Blouse
Got the honoré blouse from the archives. I think I probably could have sized down since it feels like there’s some excess material and it’s a lot to tuck in. I tried it alone and I felt very shapeless. The material is denim so it doesn’t lend itself to “voluminous” and was generally just stiff.Continue reading “Honore Blouse”
Caprice Dress
Just want to say how glad I was to have gone and try on this dress in person because I would never have bought it online. I loved it but didn’t think I could pull it off due to my age. For some reason, I haven’t worn any dress/skirt above knee for a couple ofContinue reading “Caprice Dress”
Renato Jacket
Unique and fun embroidery for sure – high quality cotton piece, but it’s very heavy and I live in a warm climate. I’m a jacket addict but just not sure I’ll get much wear out of this. It feels like I’m wearing a quilt – cozy but impractical? Stylish enough to keep for infrequent wear?Continue reading “Renato Jacket”
Pierro Shirt
Pierro shirt-38. Artemis print. I just love these colours. I feel like this is a good way for me to wear black without too much black. I think I’ll wear this a lot. Works with almost every colour bottom I have which is really useful. 5’4” 130 lbs 34 C-DSezane,6,$125,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,Button-Down Shirt,French Brands,Size 6,Tops AllContinue reading “Pierro Shirt”
Miranda Faux Leather Midi Dress
Oh my gosh, i love this dress! The vegan leather is truly buttery soft and it felt so lovely on the skin! I don’t think I’ve ever tried vegan leather that is this soft and comfy. I thought the silhouette is also very flattering. Only problem is that it’s a halter so sadly I can’tContinue reading “Miranda Faux Leather Midi Dress”
Chara Vegan Leather Party Dress
OK, I call this the attack of the spiral boobies. I remember seeing this on an Instagram ad and immediately added to cart but I’m glad I didn’t! I’m wearing a size 6 which is my usual size for fancier brands. The fabric just felt … cheap? I’m not sure I like the vegan leatherContinue reading “Chara Vegan Leather Party Dress”
Ellis Tweed Box Pleat Dress
Hmmm… Trying to pinpoint exactly what I don’t like about this dress. The fabric is really lovely actually. The tweed is a pretty decent medium-weight fabric and it feels well constructed. I think it’s that the bodice just doesn’t seem to have a lot of shape. Or rather, it definitely looks better on the modelContinue reading “Ellis Tweed Box Pleat Dress”
Zip Back Scuba Pant
I love these pants but there’s no way I can wear these to my office which errs on the more conservative side. I actually thought they were quite flattering with the seam on the side. It’s got plenty of stretch and the zip in the back instead of buttons. I also like that the fabricContinue reading “Zip Back Scuba Pant”
Miller Dickey Jacket
I’ve been on the lookout for a proper blazer for the office. I’ve tried a bunch of different styles but haven’t bit the bullet yet. Nevertheless, when I tried this one on, there’s definitely a wow factor. It is incredibly beautifully made and doesn’t make me look boxy at all (I have pretty wide shouldersContinue reading “Miller Dickey Jacket”
Truman Mini Skirt
Super cute mini skirt! Was a little worried that the length would be too short but I actually think it’s pretty workable. I ended up not getting it because I already have another skirt that’s quite similar and at almost $400, didn’t think it was necessary. There’s no stretch but it’s pretty true to size.Continue reading “Truman Mini Skirt”
Bella Dress
Size 6 / 38. I was in love with it when I saw it on social media. The print is divine. But in person, on me, I’m lukewarm. It feels a bit like the dress is wearing me. Maybe it’s just that there’s so much of it. It’s LONG. I’m 5’7″ and I’m wearing 2.5″Continue reading “Bella Dress”
Brooke Open-Front Blazer
OK, I’m totally in love. I think I may have found the perfect blazer! This has the exact feminine shape that I’ve been searching for. I love that it gives you that sort of cinched look instead of the boxy menswear style that seems to be so in vogue. I got a size 6 –Continue reading “Brooke Open-Front Blazer”
Gillie Skirt in Denim Blue, Felix Jumper in Pastel Yellow
I got a 6. I have a 27 inch waist and it fits perfectly. There’s no stretch at all but you can adjust the belt. Sezane,6,$125,5’9-5’10 5’9-5’10,Bottoms,French Brands,Size 6,Skirt Sezane
Mini Wells Dress
I bought this as part of the STAUD EOY sale which was 30% off the original price. I’m a big fan of fit and flare dresses. Sizing worked out. I got the 6 (measurements are 35-29-37). The bust area is a little loose and I have to be careful with the kind of bra –Continue reading “Mini Wells Dress”
