For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim. Shella Dress in Polka Dots, size 4. Really loved this dress. It does have smocking in the back where the zipper is. I know some people aren’t fans of smocking but as a nursing mom I love the flexibility itContinue reading “Shella Dress in Polka Dots”

Chlo Shirt
Chlo Shirt in Electric Blue, Size 4. For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim. Super happy with this one. I rarely like chlo as much as in person as I do online (I’ve tried a few that are too muted/too sheer) but this color is wonderful.
Juliette Blouse in Black
For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim. Juliette blouse in Black, size 4. A great black blouse that can be dressed up or down. I actually got the pink one last year and it’s held up very well, 100% silk.
Ribbed Softstreme Flared Pant *Regular
I want more but I’m not sure about the remaining colors. These were final sale. I just LOVE them!! Comfy, thick material, and look great. I might try a size 2 next time but I do really like how size 4 fits and feels.
Rhett Dress
I’m in love! 💞 😍 Ordered a size 4 for my usual 4 and it was perfect – the waist tie tightens the middle so I wasn’t too concerned about sizing down. I was more concerned about the waist bands being too tight. Feminine, fabric could be better (50% viscose and you can feel it),Continue reading “Rhett Dress”
Daria Linen Dress
Super cute dress! I actually saw this dress online and didn’t realize all the little details like the corset-y boning thingie (not actual boning, just seams) but it’s just a nice design detail that I totally missed when I was browsing online. Great casual summer dress! I’m usually a 4-6 in dresses and I triedContinue reading “Daria Linen Dress”
Freddy Jacket
Oh how I wanted to love this one! But sadly it’s a return for me. I love the print and the textures but it feels super bulky and stiff. It’s hard to bend your arms comfortably even with something really thing underneath. The front also sticks out quite a bit in a way I don’tContinue reading “Freddy Jacket”
Marino Trousers
For reference- 5’3, about 130lbs, 34C, usually a US size 4/small/27 or 28 in denim depending on the brand. I love these jeans. The button details are so pretty, they’re a great rise for me a few months post-baby, and they are a nice dressy color that can be dressed up or down. I didContinue reading “Marino Trousers”
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 Knit Dress
I have some knit dresses from Maje and this one was a total miss. The fabric was not the really nice quality knit that I’m used to. Honestly it felt like really cheap fabric that you would get from Zara or Forever 21 (RIP). As a result, the shape was not flattering at all. Also,Continue reading “Short Knit Dress”
Silk Winter Floral Print Blouse
I love this blouse! The color, the fabric covered buttons…. So utterly gorgeous. Unfortunately I really don’t wear a lot of color so I didn’t think this was something I would consistently reach for in my closet. I did try to see if they had the same style in a more neutral color but theContinue reading “Silk Winter Floral Print Blouse”
Lace Cropped Shirt + Cami
I saw one of the store assistants wear this shirt and she made it look so fabulous! I didn’t like it on me at all however. It felt very prim and proper, a bit too buttoned up and “school librarian”. I love the details individually (the cuffs, the collar, the lace, the bells sleeves\0 butContinue reading “Lace Cropped Shirt + Cami”
Contrast Panel Fit and Flare Maxi Dress
Mmmm NOPE. My streak of no-good Me+Em maxi dresses continues! Really nice fabric, which this brand is known for, but I always think that this brand is really made for long and lean body shapes. I’m 5’5ish so not super tall and something about the shoulder area kind of bothered me. I felt like itContinue reading “Contrast Panel Fit and Flare Maxi 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”
