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”
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”
Colette Marinière Top
I’ve had my eye on this style of shirt for awhile. I checked out versions in Saint James as well as Sézane and I figured at this price point, I would try this particular one. It’s just your standard boat neck shirt. The fabric is fine, if a little boxy. The fabric is actually aContinue reading “Colette Marinière Top”
Jia Dress
This brand is an unusual one – I saw lots of beautiful marketing images on Instagram and was intrigued enough to spend some time on the website. It turns out this was a “made to order” brand – they’re all about limiting production volumes to reduce waste, so if you end up ordering an item,Continue reading “Jia Dress”
Elroy Seam-Front Pants
Pants are a total landmine for me. I’m pretty sure this was the first online pants purchase for me. There are just too many landlines – I have a tush and hips and generally fitted silhouettes work best for me; alas, fitted silhouettes aren’t the easiest when shopping online. I discovered Ba&Sh and I reallyContinue reading “Elroy Seam-Front Pants”
Penny Loafer
Ugh, this is a brand that was a total letdown. Full caveat – I bought two pairs of shoes: this penny loafer as well as their signature style, the Demi (see here). I was coming out of my work from home cocoon and needed some flats for my work commute. I was totally sucked inContinue reading “Penny Loafer”
Melissa Button 2 Boot
OK so I’ve had these boots for two years now – aka, PLENTY of time to break in. They look absolutely lovely once they’re on – gorgeous leather, incredibly comfortable, works with just about any item of clothing, and looks like a very classic, classy leather boot. Here’s the problem – the boot has noContinue reading “Melissa Button 2 Boot”
