They looked so precious online but I haven’t worn them as much as I thought I would. They’re not terribly flattering on me, but maybe a different color would be better. I’ve worn them I think twice now, there’s already a little bit of creasing. They’re not very comfortable for me, but I think IContinue reading “Paula Babies”

Edouard Shirt
Very good quality, thick material. The cut by design is oversized so you can either take your regular size or size down as needed. My personal preference was to take my usual size so it still has an oversized vibe. Sezane,,$50, Button-Down Shirt,French Brands,Tops All Reviews,Sezane,Top
Jazmynn Satin Stretch Skinny Jeans
LOVE THESE JEANS! So glad I bought these. My trusty AG jeans split at the butt in a moment of humiliation after only two years which I find to be unacceptable for denim. The last time I went to an AG store, I was very underwhelmed with the designs, especially at that price point. TheseContinue reading “Jazmynn Satin Stretch Skinny Jeans”
Jadis Cowl Neck Sleeveless Top
$122 (originally $175). This top definitely falls into the bucket of “would not have purchased if I were browsing online” but in the store, the fabric just looked so chic. Plus, I feel like a satin dressy top is a must for every woman. I got my usual size (size 1 in Ted Baker lingo,Continue reading “Jadis Cowl Neck Sleeveless Top”
Esperanza Leather Point Toe Flats
Korean Size 240 (US Size 7). $117 (70% off from $389!). Bought mine on Outnet. I saw the product pic and I fell in love! I loved the design on the bottom (although it definitely does scuff once you start walking around in them!). Every woman needs a flat shiny point-toe and I knew thatContinue reading “Esperanza Leather Point Toe Flats”
Niels Shorts
Love these shorts! Super cute and functional. In terms of sizing, my butt is around 39″ and the size 6 fit me perfectly. I wear them basically all summer. Easy to maintain, easy to style, and super comfy too. Sezane,6,$125,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Bottoms,French Brands,Shorts,Size 6 All Reviews,Sezane,Shorts
Faux Leather Leggings
I love these pants so much that I got another Spanx leggings in green velour. These are great for running around in the city and I find that they’re very easy to dress up or down. For context, I’m 5’8 and 120lbs. I got the Size S which fit perfectly. If it helps, my hipsContinue reading “Faux Leather Leggings”
Phoebe Mid Boots
They’re so different from anything else I have, but I inexplicably love them. They definitely have a wider ankle, so are super easy to put on. No struggle at all! I’m sort of in between a 6-6.5 (closer to 6.5) and chose a 6.5 and they fit perfect. I imagine they’re TTS, but would sizeContinue reading “Phoebe Mid Boots”

Soft Lounge Long Sleeve Dress
I bought two different Skims dresses – you can see the tank version here. I initially ordered the XXS which is pictured below but decided to return and get the XS instead. I was worried that with the fabric being so light and stretchy, it might look too sheer and I wanted a bit moreContinue reading “Soft Lounge Long Sleeve Dress”
Blade Pump
Got the Size 40 (US 10). No longer available on their site but they have lots of different Blade options. Casadei is definitely one of those brands that are more about style rather than function. Case in point – these pumps are gorgeous to look at, they’re obviously fabulous, but they’re impossible to wear forContinue reading “Blade Pump”
Rome Shorts
As a newly obsessed owner of the Rome shorts in denim, I just came here to throw some notes out about the fit. I am 5’6″ and about 155lbs. I carry most of my weight in the hip/bum/thigh region so pants are always a pain for me to get especially since (proportion wise) I feelContinue reading “Rome Shorts”
MOA Black Nappa Flat
Size 38 (US 7.5) I bought these shoes after a couple of failed experiments purchasing emerging designer brands (see my review on ALLY Shoes and Margaux). I think in short, while these shoes are very design-forward and eye-catching, I think the quality could definitely be better. So first and foremost, the shoes are super comfy.Continue reading “MOA Black Nappa Flat”
Chambray Shirred Waist Maxi Dress
I love the concept behind this dress – it looks like the perfect spring/summer weekend dress as you chase around your kids. I think this kind of dress looks really flattering on women who are long and lean. When you’re 5’6 and 135lbs, it doesn’t quite have the same effect. I think if the necklineContinue reading “Chambray Shirred Waist Maxi Dress”
Blade Patent Leather Slingback Pumps
I feel too formal when wearing classic pumps, so I’ve really been into the slingback trend. I’ve loved Saint Laurent’s Blade slingbacks (they have different styles, but all of them are characterised by a square pointed toe) for a few months, and decided to go for it. I tried on the silver mirrored version andContinue reading “Blade Patent Leather Slingback Pumps”
Sigrid Dress
I bought this dress as part of “return to work” purchases. Just wanted a simple black dress that could be versatile and functional without breaking the bank. This one fit the bill. Feels like the dress is pretty close to what was advertised. The only thing that is a little off is that the pleatsContinue reading “Sigrid Dress”
Tropez Romper
This is one of the very rare instances where I discovered a brand through my husband. These terry cloth “towel polos” were everywhere in the summer of 2021 and I just had to jump onboard! I saw this romper and it looked absolutely adorable. The good: Incredibly comfortable, easy to put on (not always theContinue reading “Tropez Romper”
Odyssey Skirt
$52 but got on sale for $16 Ordered a bunch of Buffbunny items for fun. Love this skirt – I got it in Tan and Ivory. The Ivory skirt is a bit see-through so I think I’ll need to pick up some spandex shorts to wear underneath. In terms of sizing, I would say itContinue reading “Odyssey Skirt”
