I’m usually a 38 in Sézane tops (UK 10 US 6). I got it in a 38 and it’s very roomy; I did consider exchanging it for a 36 but I’m glad I kept it. I’m looking forward to wearing thick sweaters underneath it without feeling like a little sausage crammed into a casing.ALLY Shoes,8,$325,5’5-5’6Continue reading “Clyde Trench Coat”

Amiel Jumper
For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. Also really enjoying this piece, especially the color. I first got the Amiel in the charcoal gray color and tried both the S and XS. I prefer the XS on me, the small would look aContinue reading “Amiel Jumper”
Sama Jumper
For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. This is such a cute sweater to go with high rise pants. Super soft and warm. In terms of itch: I think it’s actually on the softer side of their sweaters but I also realize IContinue reading “Sama Jumper”
Marino Trousers
For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. I love these jeans. The button details are so pretty, they’re a great rise for me a few months post-baby, and they are a nice dressy color that can be dressed up or down. I didContinue reading “Marino Trousers”
Emilio Trousers
For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. I sized up to a 6 on these and probably should have gone with an 8 but they sold out. I liked them enough to keep them but wouldn’t say love. Cute detailing on the frontContinue reading “Emilio Trousers”
Aurore Jumper
I really like these sweaters but the style is probably not for everyone. Definitely takes a little styling/arranging and probably touching up throughout the day as the off the shoulder part can ride up. It’s very soft and warm but can shed a bit and may be a little itchy for sensitive skin.Sezane,size S,,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,SizeContinue reading “Aurore Jumper”
Anika Jumper
For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. Archives order. I love this piece. Almost didn’t buy it but so glad I was able to find it in my size. Some of the prettiest detail I’ve seen and it’s very light and comfortable.Sezane,size XS,,5’3-5’4Continue reading “Anika Jumper”
Erine Dress
i quite like this dress! I like the button details although I did the positioning was kind of weird – I thought it would be at the top of the shoulder but they’re unexpectedly lower down. Not necessarily a bad thing, just wasn’t something that I expected. Fabric is pretty nice too and I thoughtContinue reading “Erine Dress”
Stacy Jumper
SO I would normally wear a size S in Sezane tops but they were out of stock of the Stacy in that size so I grabbed the L just to feel the fabric. Holy mother of god – all I can say is, do not buy this jumper unless 1) you have a white catContinue reading “Stacy Jumper”
Chlo Shirt
I’m an existing Chlo lover (have it in dark blue and stripes). I really thought this lace was beautiful but I didn’t like how stiff the fabric was. I honestly felt like I was wearing a tablecloth or something. I couldn’t seem to get the collar to stay down so it looked very 2000s withContinue reading “Chlo Shirt”
Lea Ankle Boot
I popped into the London Bobbies store because I had been bombarded with their ads on Instagram and I was curious. I tried on the Lea ankle boots in Cabernet because I remember seeing these ads and the product pics looked so nice. The first thing i immediately noticed was the crease and that wasContinue reading “Lea Ankle Boot”
Madeline Jersey Wrap-Tie midi Dress
Nice dress but it’s basically stretchy polyester. Something about the bust/waist area didn’t quite work for me and the fabric honestly felt a little cheap. Reiss felt like a much higher quality brand a few years ago but recently I think they’ve really cheaped out on fabrics so I definitely try to be a littleContinue reading “Madeline Jersey Wrap-Tie midi Dress”
Herbag Zip 31 bag
Splurged for my birthday! What a treat! I got the black because I thought that was going to be the easiest to match with my clothing. A few things to note: – the bag close is kind of annoying if you’re always taking things in and out. i usually leave mine open which probably isn’tContinue reading “Herbag Zip 31 bag”
Short Ruffled Dress
Love this dress! I thought the shape was super flattering. I would probably add another button at the neckline to make it work appropriate because it is a little bit too cleavage-y. I was astonished at the price (more than $450) which I thought was kind of crazy for a Maje dress that was madeContinue reading “Short Ruffled Dress”
Moka Sweetheart Neck Sweater
Putting this top on my wishlist. I didn’t like it enough to buy outright especially at the price ($175 seemed a tad steep for a basic top). I like the sweetheart neckline but it is quite wide so wearing a regular bra might be a challenge. Actually that was part of the reason why I didn’tContinue reading “Moka Sweetheart Neck Sweater”
Maude Rib Knit Top
I wanted a classic short sleeve knit top – nothing complicated. However, something about this fit seemed a little off. I do have fairly broad shoulders but this really didn’t feel like it flattered my upper body. It made my shoulders look really broad and also rounded if that makes sense…? Something just looked ratherContinue reading “Maude Rib Knit Top”
Short Patterned Knit Dress
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”
