Ugh I LOVE THIS DRESS! Such a classic! The fabric was also glorious (silk). This is very high on my potential shopping list for a formal event. True to size and I like that while formfitting, it wasn’t like a clinging dress that shows all the lumps and bumps. It is quite long though soContinue reading “Daniela Silk Dress”

Travel Tailoring Swing Top
Can’t figure out what it is but something is just a tad off. It looks rather frumpy on me although maybe it’s because I paired with the culottes so it just looks odd. Maybe with skinny jeans or some sort of streamlined bottom it would look better…? Not sure but not for me. I’m wearingContinue reading “Travel Tailoring Swing Top”
Travel Tailoring Shirt Collar Swing Top
To be honest, not a fan. I think the swing silhouette isn’t really for me – I like having more fitted styles especially around the waist which is most flattering for me. I also don’t like that my so-called t-shirt bra is still visible. Fabric is nice, I’m wearing my usual size (size 4). JustContinue reading “Travel Tailoring Shirt Collar Swing Top”
Fine Pointelle Knit Maxi Dress
I thought this dress was really nice but it was hard to see what occasion I would wear this at. I would imagine this could be really nice resortwear perhaps but I didn’t think I could pull it off. I definitely think this hews to the Me + Em ethos of you kind of haveContinue reading “Fine Pointelle Knit Maxi Dress”
Trellis Floral Print Midi Dress + Belt
Oh. No. Just no. I feel like you have to be very long and lean to pull this off. I look like I’m wearing a highly elaborate Amish nightgown. The collar conceptually looks cool but it looks puerile on me. The print is really beautiful, however, I truly struggle how one can pay $500 forContinue reading “Trellis Floral Print Midi Dress + Belt”
Travel Tailoring Ponte Culotte
I’m not a pants person but I wanted to try these on and I loved it! They’re elastic so super comfortable. I generally struggle with pants and their length but I actually love this look. The reason why I ended up not getting these is because I don’t quite have the right tops to pullContinue reading “Travel Tailoring Ponte Culotte”
Marin Dress
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
I‘m 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 😀 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 😀 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. I’m 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”
