I’m 168cm and 58kg. Size 38 (US 6) is a bit snug; I probably should have sized up to be more comfortable. I have two other Gabin dresses in 38 and they are fine but I would suggest sizing up in this style. Rouje in general does run a little small.ALLY Shoes,8,$325,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Emerging Designers,Pumps,Shoes,Size 8Continue reading “Marin Dress”

Gabin Dress
Iām 168cm and 58kg. I have two of the Gabin dresses and I love the cut. Size 38 is the perfect size (note: Sezane tends to run large, Maje runs small, and Rouje in between depending on the item). My usual size is 36 in tops and 38 in bottoms.Rouje,size 6,,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Size 6 All Reviews,Rouje
Jacques Jacket
So I REALLY like this jacket! It’s made of a fairly thick fabric and seemed to be well-constructed. I like the oversize fit. I’m wearing a 38 (usually wear 36 on tops but will sometimes size up for jackets) and I think this is the right size. The shoulders are usually tough for me butContinue reading “Jacques Jacket”
Raquel Dress
I call this the safari dress – I don’t know why but it looks like something one would wear on a safari š Anyways, I definitely think I should’ve sized up because the chest area was definitely too tight. I liked the shape of it and the fabric was this interestingly soft and shiny fabricContinue reading “Raquel Dress”
Fegus T-Shirt
Very fun t-shirt! Definitely size up! Maybe two sizes š I’m wearing 38 (size 6) where I normally wear a size 4 but I probably could’ve gone another size up as well. Love the print – so very fun. It’s 95% cotton/5% elastane so there’s a little bit of stretch which makes it comfy. IContinue reading “Fegus T-Shirt”
Arthus Top
This top is very cute! I love the weaving of the fabric and the drawstring features is kind of nice too – you can tighten it for a more peplum-y look or you can just leave it loose. Great for the summer with denim shorts, jeans, or a skirt. I’m wearing a size 38 –Continue reading “Arthus Top”
Suzanne Skirt
This one is a no for me. It’s 100% viscose and unfortunately it really did feel like cheap material. The shape was OK but it was sadly not particularly flattering to my lower tummy – I think having the white band on the tummy is questionable. Maybe swapping the colors would’ve been better? Or evenContinue reading “Suzanne Skirt”
Pearl T-Shirt
Lovely fabric but definitely far too sexy for moi! I did find the two different knits to be lovely and it was definitely a nicer quality than some of the other Rouje items I saw. I think maybe if I were smaller chested this could be a more flattering look. Iām wearing a 38 (sizeContinue reading “Pearl T-Shirt”
Align High-Rise Short 6″
I was a little worried that the shorts would show sweat stains but no need to worry about that here! These are great shorts – I found the style to be flattering and comfortable. I like doing HIIT + running in these. Sometimes I throw on a big t-shirt and just do errands as well.Continue reading “Align High-Rise Short 6″”
Like a Cloud Longline Bra
This is my first time getting a sports bra from Lululemon and I love it! I actually was recommended this style by a friend who had gotten it before and I can definitely see why. It’s super comfortable and I actually ended up wearing it while traveling from Asia to the US for a fullContinue reading “Like a Cloud Longline Bra”
Camille Tulle Bugle Bows Dress
I LOVE this dress. It’s very lady-like and I love the soft tulle. I was actually a little worried that the tulle might be itchy but that hasn’t been a problem at all and there are several layers for some added shape. It’s extremely comfortable and in my view, runs generally true to size.ALLY Shoes,8,$325,5’5-5’6Continue reading “Camille Tulle Bugle Bows Dress”
Tourbillon Bracelet in Silk
My sister got this Hermes silk bracelet for me from Paris. Its free-size and you just tie it on your wrist, so it works on every body shape! I pair this with a cashmere sweater in the winter or with a dragon diffusion bag in the summer. Its wonderful and so worth the money!Hermes,n/a,,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,FrenchContinue reading “Tourbillon Bracelet in Silk”
Wilfried Twirl Pleated Skirt
This is a truly stunning skirt – been looking for a pleated skirt for awhile BUT… it’s TOTALLY see through. Even with nude underwear, you can most certainly see the outline. I think I have to buy a nude slip to wear this outside and hopefully that fixes things but something to consider. I’m curiousContinue reading “Wilfried Twirl Pleated Skirt”
Babaton Slip Satin Midi Skirt
Classic Aritzia slip skirt. I’ve been avoiding slip skirts because I don’t find it to be the most flattering silhouette. This one though seems to work very well. No panty lines and it hugs the butt/hips just enough to make me feel feminine without being tight. The waistband is fine but i usually do aContinue reading “Babaton Slip Satin Midi Skirt”
Babaton Futurism Satin Skirt
Channeling my inner 50s in this skirt. They didn’t have my size 6 so I tried a size 4. It worked although admittedly it’s a tad tight especially after lunch. Love the fabric and it does feel very dressy! I’m 5’6 and it’s definitely more ankle-length than just-below-the-knee length on the model. Fabric is gorgeous.Aritzia,sizeContinue reading “Babaton Futurism Satin Skirt”
Babaton Refined Satin Pant
So quick caveat – I am not a pants person AT ALL. I don’t think I’ve ever worn pants to work in the last year. I would never have picked out this style but one of the lovely shop assistants picked it out and suggested I try it. I won’t lie, I wrinkled my noseContinue reading “Babaton Refined Satin Pant”
Contour Crew Bodysuit
I was looking for work staples and saw this one on the rack. I love it! It’s super flattering, perfect for summer. I was a little worried about it being see-through but I’m wearing a lacy bra underneath and you can just barely see it so I think any nude t-shirt or seamless bra shouldContinue reading “Contour Crew Bodysuit”
Tres Paris T-Shirt
Cute t-shirt. It’s a tad boxy for my liking but fine enough. I decided I didn’t need two t-shirts of essentially the same style so I ended up just getting the La Chamade t-shirt. I would totally have gotten this one too if budget allowed!Sezane,size S,,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,French Brands,Size S,T-shirt,Tops All Reviews,Sezane
