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”
Gabin Dress
I‘m 168cm and 58kg. I have two of the Gabin dresses and I love the cut. Size 38 is the perfect size (note: Sezane tends to run large, Maje runs small, and Rouje in between depending on the item). My usual size is 36 in tops and 38 in bottoms.Rouje,size 6,,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Size 6 All Reviews,Rouje
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”
Raquel Dress
I call this the safari dress – I don’t know why but it looks like something one would wear on a safari 😀 Anyways, I definitely think I should’ve sized up because the chest area was definitely too tight. I liked the shape of it and the fabric was this interestingly soft and shiny fabricContinue reading “Raquel Dress”
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”
Arthus Top
This top is very cute! I love the weaving of the fabric and the drawstring features is kind of nice too – you can tighten it for a more peplum-y look or you can just leave it loose. Great for the summer with denim shorts, jeans, or a skirt. I’m wearing a size 38 –Continue reading “Arthus Top”
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”
Pearl T-Shirt
Lovely fabric but definitely far too sexy for moi! I did find the two different knits to be lovely and it was definitely a nicer quality than some of the other Rouje items I saw. I think maybe if I were smaller chested this could be a more flattering look. I’m wearing a 38 (sizeContinue reading “Pearl T-Shirt”
Align High-Rise Short 6″
I was a little worried that the shorts would show sweat stains but no need to worry about that here! These are great shorts – I found the style to be flattering and comfortable. I like doing HIIT + running in these. Sometimes I throw on a big t-shirt and just do errands as well.Continue reading “Align High-Rise Short 6″”
Camille Tulle Bugle Bows Dress
I LOVE this dress. It’s very lady-like and I love the soft tulle. I was actually a little worried that the tulle might be itchy but that hasn’t been a problem at all and there are several layers for some added shape. It’s extremely comfortable and in my view, runs generally true to size.ALLY Shoes,8,$325,5’5-5’6Continue reading “Camille Tulle Bugle Bows Dress”
Babaton Slip Satin Midi Skirt
Classic Aritzia slip skirt. I’ve been avoiding slip skirts because I don’t find it to be the most flattering silhouette. This one though seems to work very well. No panty lines and it hugs the butt/hips just enough to make me feel feminine without being tight. The waistband is fine but i usually do aContinue reading “Babaton Slip Satin Midi Skirt”
Babaton Refined Satin Pant
So quick caveat – I am not a pants person AT ALL. I don’t think I’ve ever worn pants to work in the last year. I would never have picked out this style but one of the lovely shop assistants picked it out and suggested I try it. I won’t lie, I wrinkled my noseContinue reading “Babaton Refined Satin Pant”
Louella Skirt
Maxi skirts aren’t really my thing but I thought this pattern was so whimsical BUT I noticed two things – 1) I don’t like how the pattern doesn’t line up at the seams. I know some people don’t care about this but it just feels… sloppy? And 2) the product pic makes the skirt seemContinue reading “Louella Skirt”
Matchmaker Mini Dress
Very whimsical. I would totally wear this to a wedding or some other fancy formal event. The bust area might be challenging for smaller ladies because it is kind of hard to fill it out. I was also really surprised to see pockets. Gorgeous dress, perfect for a garden wedding or summer shower or something.Continue reading “Matchmaker Mini Dress”
