Emilio Trousers

For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. I sized up to a 6 on these and probably should have gone with an 8 but they sold out. I liked them enough to keep them but wouldn’t say love. Cute detailing on the frontContinue reading “Emilio Trousers”

Aurore Jumper

I really like these sweaters but the style is probably not for everyone. Definitely takes a little styling/arranging and probably touching up throughout the day as the off the shoulder part can ride up. It’s very soft and warm but can shed a bit and may be a little itchy for sensitive skin.Sezane,size S,,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,SizeContinue reading “Aurore Jumper”

Anika Jumper

For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. Archives order. I love this piece. Almost didn’t buy it but so glad I was able to find it in my size. Some of the prettiest detail I’ve seen and it’s very light and comfortable.Sezane,size XS,,5’3-5’4Continue reading “Anika Jumper”

Erine Dress

i quite like this dress! I like the button details although I did the positioning was kind of weird – I thought it would be at the top of the shoulder but they’re unexpectedly lower down. Not necessarily a bad thing, just wasn’t something that I expected. Fabric is pretty nice too and I thoughtContinue reading “Erine Dress”

Chlo Shirt

I’m an existing Chlo lover (have it in dark blue and stripes). I really thought this lace was beautiful but I didn’t like how stiff the fabric was. I honestly felt like I was wearing a tablecloth or something. I couldn’t seem to get the collar to stay down so it looked very 2000s withContinue reading “Chlo Shirt”

Lea Ankle Boot

I popped into the London Bobbies store because I had been bombarded with their ads on Instagram and I was curious. I tried on the Lea ankle boots in Cabernet because I remember seeing these ads and the product pics looked so nice. The first thing i immediately noticed was the crease and that wasContinue reading “Lea Ankle Boot”

Herbag Zip 31 bag

Splurged for my birthday! What a treat! I got the black because I thought that was going to be the easiest to match with my clothing. A few things to note: – the bag close is kind of annoying if you’re always taking things in and out. i usually leave mine open which probably isn’tContinue reading “Herbag Zip 31 bag”

Short Ruffled Dress

Love this dress! I thought the shape was super flattering. I would probably add another button at the neckline to make it work appropriate because it is a little bit too cleavage-y. I was astonished at the price (more than $450) which I thought was kind of crazy for a Maje dress that was madeContinue reading “Short Ruffled Dress”

Moka Sweetheart Neck Sweater

Putting this top on my wishlist. I didn’t like it enough to buy outright especially at the price ($175 seemed a tad steep for a basic top). I like the sweetheart neckline but it is quite wide so wearing a regular bra might be a challenge. Actually that was part of the reason why I didn’tContinue reading “Moka Sweetheart Neck Sweater”

Maude Rib Knit Top

I wanted a classic short sleeve knit top – nothing complicated. However, something about this fit seemed a little off. I do have fairly broad shoulders but this really didn’t feel like it flattered my upper body. It made my shoulders look really broad and also rounded if that makes sense…? Something just looked ratherContinue reading “Maude Rib Knit Top”

Short Patterned Knit Dress

I ALMOST bit the bullet on this one. I thought the shape was super flattering. Love the square neck and the fabric is thick enough to hide lumps and bumps but stretchy enough that it’s quite comfortable. I also really liked the flared skirt but it was a bit TOO flared, if that makes sense.Continue reading “Short Patterned Knit Dress”

Short Sequinned Skater Skirt

Very fun skirt. It’s a stiff fabric so it keeps the flare. The elastic is pretty strong so this may not be comfortable for some ladies but it was fine for me. Flattering silhouette but not something I would wear very often. I also feel like I have too many fit/flare skirts in my closetContinue reading “Short Sequinned Skater Skirt”

Silk Shirt with Gathered Collar

Ugh, this shirt felt like a DREAM! Such beautiful fabric, so soft on the body… TOO BAD IT’S TOTALLY SEE-THROUGH! Honestly, I never understand brands that make these shirts that are completely sheer because now I have to go find another tank top that is just as delicate as the shirt. I also think thatContinue reading “Silk Shirt with Gathered Collar”

Short Draped Dress

Nice dress but one of those styles where it’s hard to envision wearing it on many occasions. I like the sheer sleeves and I like that the decolletage area isn’t sheer so it’s a little bit more modest but honestly it just felt too much like a young woman’s party dress. Not something I couldContinue reading “Short Draped Dress”
