The picture is not very good. Its size 40 for my 38-40. I think it sizes slightly smaller in the hips area than the black Damon pants. But I cannot size up as the waist would be too big. I already have space to tuck a knit. For the fabric, it’s thick and warm butContinue reading “Damon Trousers”

Henria Cardigan in Burgundy, Sorena Skirt in Navy
Henria | Burgandy | XXS Paired with my Sorena XXS The color and detail is lovely! I am wearing it with no layers under and my skin is okay with the bit of itchy in some areas. I would still wear this with a layer under for more warmth and comfort. It is SO cozyContinue reading “Henria Cardigan in Burgundy, Sorena Skirt in Navy”
Paula Babies
Sezane dropped more purple clothes and purple boots. I wonder if they tried to go for purple but was harder to do that in leather? Either way, disappointing for those hoping they are more purple but a win for those of us who took a risk on the color name and hoped it would beContinue reading “Paula Babies”
Kourtney Dress
I loved this dress the most out of my several Reformation dresses. I felt like I actually had curves in it even though I don’t ! I’m 5’2 and normally wear XS/SReformation,2,$278,5’1-5’2 5’1-5’2,Dress,Size 2 All Reviews,Reformation
Sienne Dress
I’m usually XS/2 in Reformation dresses but should’ve gone one size smaller on this one.Reformation,2,,5’1-5’2 2,5’1-5’2 Uncategorized
Inka Dress
LOVE these dresses. Note – they do run small. I took small in these and it’s tight across my chest. If I were to buy these again I’d go for medium. It’s fine for my small chest but not for anyone with bigger boobs.,S,,5’1-5’2 5’1-5’2,S Uncategorized
Small Lee Radziwill Double Bag
My new bag. She is gorgeous. Tory Burch small Lee Radziwill. The light doesn’t do her justice. It’s just such a well-made bag and unlike so many bags I love- I think a fair price. I also considered the double but heard it was heavy. Its so well made. Ive bought so many purses overContinue reading “Small Lee Radziwill Double Bag”
La Chamade Sweatshirt
The Chamades are size medium and I like the relaxed fit. On average i am a 38 for tops. The Rosewood is a duller colour than expected. Unsure if it is the best colour on me.Sezane,M,$120,5’9-5’10 5’9-5’10,French Brands,Size M,Sweatshirt,Tops All Reviews,Sezane

Sami knit (S, buy here, $145) with Rome shorts in black (36 / US 4, buy here, $130) and Paula babies (40, buy here, $215). OMG this is my first pair of Paula babies and I am in love! I want them in every colour! The Rosy Beige is understated but flattering as it reallyContinue reading “Sami Jumper in Natural, Rome Shorts in Black, Paula Babies in Rosy Beige Lacquer”
Arthuro Trousers
Arthuro trousers (36 / US 4) from the archives. I absolutely love the colour but they feel slightly big around the hips/crotch area, and bunch in an unflattering way in real life though this is hard to see in photos. I may order a 34 to try but suspect they will be too small aroundContinue reading “Arthuro Trousers”
Alicia Skirt
Alicia Skirt in 14 – I think I will size down in this if I keep (if possible). The colors are much more vibrant than show in these photos and it’s a lovely skirt. More volume than I was anticipating, but ok for short people maybe?Sezane,14,$150,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,Bottoms,French Brands,Size 14,Skirt All Reviews,Sezane
Luke Jumper
This is the itchiest of the three (Henria, Federica, Luke) but it’s still just not very itchy even for my sensitive skin. The embroidery is absolutely gorgeous. I did my first wash in cold water on delicate with wool wash. The Luke required a little stretching and held up well overall. Color: It seems moreContinue reading “Luke Jumper”
Federica Jumper
I sized down. This reminds me of when I did ballet as a child ? It’s a bit whimsical and very pretty. When I took it out of the box a poof of fabric came off, so I would expect a lot of shedding. Again wearing nothing under, and it is not revealing. I’m 5’3Continue reading “Federica Jumper”
Henria Cardigan
This is quite thin but very soft and comfortable. Not nearly as itchy as I anticipated. I’m not wearing anything under and it is not revealing. I did my first wash in cold water on delicate with wool wash. The Henria shrunk dramatically even with this care, so I spent some time to reblock it.Continue reading “Henria Cardigan”
Chlo Shirt
Really recommend this Chlo. I struggle with some extra weight after having kids and this blouse 100% makes me NOT feel like a size 42❤️ Just makes me feel very pretty. And it goes with almost everything in my wardrobe which is a plus?Sezane,10,$125,5’3-5’4 Button-Down Shirt,French Brands,Size 10,Tops All Reviews,Sezane
Michele Jacket Solidarity Collection in Mottled Rosewood and Martin Trousers in Powder
Michele Jacket (buy here, $230) – US 8, EU40. I love it! I have broad shoulders and was worried the US6 would be too tight & I was right. This has enough room in the shoulders and arms for another layer but I am not swimming in it. It is more tailored than expected basedContinue reading “Michele Jacket Solidarity Collection in Mottled Rosewood and Martin Trousers in Powder”
Scott Trench Coat
Received my Scott Trench back from the tailor’s today (excuse the casual Saturday outfit ?)! I had the arms shortened (the seamstress also repositioned the cuff loops) and had the hem taken up by a few inches- I’m 5’2″ and the alterations have made all the difference. UK weather is expected to be warm nextContinue reading “Scott Trench Coat”
Georgia Ballet
These shoes are perfection. They’re pretty structured, almost stiff but uncomfortable. I actually prefer shoes that hold their shape so this texture works well for me. I love that the leather is patent-like. It’s super classy and perfect for the office. I think given the price point, it is completely worth it. Will definitely buyContinue reading “Georgia Ballet”
