Hillder Delicate Pointelle Knit Dress

Trying to upgrade some of my work items. I generally like fit and flare but something about this makes me feel matronly. I think perhaps the chest/decolletage area has too much fabric maybe? Just didn’t like it was super flattering. I usually wear 4/6 and I tried on a 6.Ted Baker,4,,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,British Brands,Dress,Size 4 TedContinue reading “Hillder Delicate Pointelle Knit Dress”

Lillyyy Fitted Peplum Top

This looked like a fairly classic top but it was a bit much for me. I think the peplum made my waist look wider and and the flare was too … peplum-y? I generally think that these styles tend to look better on those who have really hourglass figures or really slender.Ted Baker,4,,5’5-5’6 4,5’5-5’6 Uncategorized

Amelia Button-Down Shirt in White

Fun fact – I have never worn a button-down shirt in about 10 years. They always gape at the chest and tends to be very boxy and masculine. I really liked the neckline of this one since it doesn’t have a button at the top and it gives a very feminine vibe. I tried onContinue reading “Amelia Button-Down Shirt in White”

Martin Crop Trousers

Sized up to 36 in these and they fit quite well. No hemming necessary but the texture of the fabric is throwing me off. It also flattens my butt. I always abide by “the print should be proportionate to your body” and I would like this more if the checks were smaller. Will be returning.Continue reading “Martin Crop Trousers”

Wunder Train Strappy Tank Top

Didn’t realize this top was going to be as crop as it actually turned out to be. It’s super comfy though and the cups prevent any nipple show-through. It does run small – I’m usually a 2 and I’m wearing a 4 here. It doesn’t ride up either so I’m definitely buying in more colors.Lululemon,4,,5’3-5’4Continue reading “Wunder Train Strappy Tank Top”

Ginko Leaf Print Short Swing Dress + Belt

OK, I’m IN LOVE with this shape. You can wear in two ways, with the tie as a belt or bow. The only reason I didn’t buy it is because I wasn’t in love with the print. It’s just not me but the shape is 100% me! I asked the SA if they had moreContinue reading “Ginko Leaf Print Short Swing Dress + Belt”

Cheesecloth Shirred Maxi Shirt Dress

This dress is one of those that look great on tall lanky women. I don’t know if it’s my height or body shape but I just felt like a peasant who’s about to go churn butter. Definitely not my style! Having said that, the fabric is really nice – it’s a heavy/medium weight fabric andContinue reading “Cheesecloth Shirred Maxi Shirt Dress”

Cotton-Blend Fringe Trim Midi Dress

I just looked this up on the brand website and it looks totally different on the model! It looks like it’s supposed to be slightly A-line which it definitely isn’t for me. Although caveat: I usually wear size 4 in this brand but I couldn’t zip this up all the way. I definitely needed toContinue reading “Cotton-Blend Fringe Trim Midi Dress”

Silk-Blend Devoré Confetti Print Blouse

I swung by the new ME + EM store in NYC. I was excited to see all the fabulous prints that the brand is known for but they had just opened up two days ago so the inventory was somewhat limited. This blouse looked like watercolor and of course I had to try it on.Continue reading “Silk-Blend Devoré Confetti Print Blouse”

Raquel Dress

This is a bit larger than my usual size 2, but it really bothers me when the buttons stretch around the chest/torso! I appreciated a little extra room to breathe/eat. ? I can’t express how much I love this dress. It’s a good length and the fabric is a breathable but sturdy mid-weight.Sezane,4,$205,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,Dress,French Brands,SizeContinue reading “Raquel Dress”
