Size US8/EU40 — beautiful wine color, very soft and comfortable. As with all Sezane pants, it fits big in the waist and is of course way too long. I’ll have to have a tailor take it in at the waist and hem them. I am 5’6″ and my measurements are 34B-28-39.Sezane,8,$105,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Bottoms,French Brands,Pants,Size 8 AllContinue reading “Eric Trousers”

Zaria Jumper
Size S — my photo doesn’t do it justice, but the color is lovely. The reason I’m on the fence is that I cannot figure out how to tie the sash around the neck. The fabric is thick and it lays strangely. It would’ve been better if they had just made it a mock neck.Continue reading “Zaria Jumper”
Willy Short
Size US8/EU40 — my biggest issue with these are that they are BROWN and green, not CREAM and green as the photos imply. The fit was a little big. Sezane bottoms tend to be tight in the hips and loose on the waist for me, but this is cut generous in the waist. For reference,Continue reading “Willy Short”
Luan Dress
Fit fine. I don’t think this “shapeless dress with no drape” works well on me. The color is lovely and it was not itchy at all. For reference, I am 5’6″ and my measurements are 34B-28-39.Sezane,S,$180,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Dress,French Brands,Size S All Reviews,Sezane
Angelita Dress
Fit was good and color was nice too, but I realized I have something too similar. A little itchy. For reference, I am 5’6″ and my measurements are 34B-28-39.Sezane,M,$135,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Dress,French Brands,Size M All Reviews,Sezane
Eva Shirt
It fits but I’m not in love so I’ll send it back. It looks kind of like a chef’s jacket—not into it!Sezane,6,70,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Button-Down Shirt,French Brands,Size 6,Tops All Reviews,Sezane
Connor Long Coat
I’ve been on the market for a solid winter coat this whole season. I was debating buying a higher end brand but it was really tough for me to justify shelling out ~$1k for a winter coat. I saw this coat on the Aritzia website and honestly I was a bit skeptical – a $400Continue reading “Connor Long Coat”
Short Sleeve Tweed Dress
Got it on sale for 120 US dollars +8 dollars Tax. The waist is a bit big so I used a belt. Overall very happy with the purchase, the dress has very nice quality and I can see myself wearing it for many years.Sandro,,$174 (on yoox),5’5-5’6 Dress,French Brands Sandro
Alight Halter Mini Dress
I’ve never tried on anything from Zimmerman but their items do look really beautiful. I do always question who exactly is the audience for this brand – the items look like something you would wear to an upscale beach party but it’s so insanely priced! This dress is a good example. It’s a super cuteContinue reading “Alight Halter Mini Dress”
Helena High-Rise Skinny Jean
I’ve been looking to replace my two AG jeans for months. I really loved the look of these jeans and I think I must’ve added to my cart and then gave up so many times. I ended up buying them and I’m really glad I did! Pros: I love the style. The high rise isContinue reading “Helena High-Rise Skinny Jean”
Leontine Jumper
I got two colors of the Leontine jumper! Ultimately I don’t think this style is for me. For reference, I am 5’6 and 142 lbs and got size small. I feel like the jumpers are a little short in the wrists for me.Sezane,S,$125,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,French Brands,Jumper,Size S,Tops All Reviews,Sezane
Reserve Boot
I’ve been on the hunt for boots for awhile. Full disclosure, I used to have SW 5050s which I must’ve bought 10 years ago and they lasted a super long time. When they finally died (the heel fabric was completely ripped and weren’t salvageable but I figured after a decade, it was time for aContinue reading “Reserve Boot”
Mariel Trapeze Midi Dress
This dress is absolutely gorgeous! The fabric is not what I was expecting at all – it was heavierweight and stiffer than what I would’ve thought (in a good way). In fact, the fabric was nice enough that I started to question where I would wear something like this. It’s a bit too high endContinue reading “Mariel Trapeze Midi Dress”
Encompass Utility Mini Dress
I’m based in the US and I’ve seen the Aje brand on Instagram and on sites on NAP. Came to Aus for a vacation and popped into the store. I was immediately surprised by the quality of the fabrics. This dress for instance had a heavier weight than I would’ve expected. I loved it! IContinue reading “Encompass Utility Mini Dress”
Lilou Turtleneck Dress
This was my first order from Staud. Not too familiar with the brand but a friend of mine had bought a cute dress so I started following it. I always get wary of these contemporary brands where dresses are $400-500 with meh quality. However, Staud did a big sample sale where everything was ridiculously pricedContinue reading “Lilou Turtleneck Dress”
Leontine Jumper
Leontine (M): I know it doesn’t look like much but it is so easy to wear. It’s a very heavy cotton knit and it drapes beautifully. I love the balloon sleeves, but I do find the sleeves much shorter than the other sweaters. I would not size down in this one if you have longContinue reading “Leontine Jumper”
Lucas Jumper
Lucas (S): Nice structure (stiffer than James but still soft) and good length with jeans. I like the versatility of the collar but something about it feels a bit grandma when buttoned up (the colour I think?). I regret not getting the black because I think this style would look great when dressed up. I’mContinue reading “Lucas Jumper”
James Jumper
I purchased the James, Lucas, and Leontine. James (M): The softest and bulkiest of the three. I’m obsessed with the matte buttons. The fit is boxy so it needs some finessing to look flattering. This one is all about being cozy. I’m 36-28-39 and 5’6.Sezane,M,$170,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,French Brands,Jumper,Size M,Tops All Reviews,Sezane
