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”

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”

Madeline Jersey Wrap-Tie midi Dress

Nice dress but it’s basically stretchy polyester. Something about the bust/waist area didn’t quite work for me and the fabric honestly felt a little cheap. Reiss felt like a much higher quality brand a few years ago but recently I think they’ve really cheaped out on fabrics so I definitely try to be a littleContinue reading “Madeline Jersey Wrap-Tie midi Dress”

Vinette Ribbed Funnel Neck Belted Midi Dress

Very flattering silhouette. I tried it on neutral, got worried about getting it dirty, then tried it on in Mocha, and then decided the Neutral was a better fit for my skin tone. It’s a maxi dress with a funnel neck so it feels like it’s a lot of fabric but with a more form-fittingContinue reading “Vinette Ribbed Funnel Neck Belted Midi Dress”

Maeve Sequin Kick Flare Slip Skirt

Got this skirt for a special occasion and I’m in love! Great for a holiday party or special occasion, and can pair with so many tops. The fabric is quite heavy but it’s still comfortable and easy to sit in. i’m 5’6 to help with the length. Got so many compliments! I’m wearing a sizeContinue reading “Maeve Sequin Kick Flare Slip Skirt”

Pleated Tweed Skirt

The Sandro tweed skirt in black. It’s a great pleated skirt that doesn’t make me feel like a school girl, despite the pleat and the length. I’m about 5’5ish so it’s not particularly short on me. Very comfortable, workhorse skirt for the office. I usually oscillate between 4 and 6 for size but i alwaysContinue reading “Pleated Tweed Skirt”

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”

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”

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”

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”

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”
