This is in bright sun because I wanted to show the fabric. The shirt is a dark green, does not show your bra or anything in average light, but it is sheer when held up to a sunny window. I wore it to teach in professional settings, and did the various lighting check – seemedContinue reading “Chlo Shirt”

Chlo Shirt
Bottle Green: One of my all-time favorite shirts! Highly recommend for work – I’ve worn it to multiple interviews as well – it’s my go-to when I don’t know what to wear. Sage: This one is lovely plus it’s easier to match with a darker bottom than the Bottle Green version, albeit it’s a littleContinue reading “Chlo Shirt”
Florence Silk Shirt
I love this shirt. The neckline is decently deep and I can wear it for work. Note – since I wear it to work I prefer to wear a nude top underneath (I work in a law firm so quite formal) but I can wear it with a nude bra out of work and itsContinue reading “Florence Silk Shirt”
Adelie Jumper
I think it’s not clear enough in the pictures, but the issue with it is that when I have my arms down, it’s absolutely gorgeous, but as soon as I lift my arms, the puckering completely disrupts the silhouette. Since it’s such a skintight piece, the bunching is really obvious and looks quite awkward sinceContinue reading “Adelie Jumper”
Tomboy Shirt
I have the classic white Tomboy shirt in size 32 and IMO it runs true to size. I’m around 1.55 and 48kg (5’1” and 105lbs), bust circumference 84cm. They are not fitted nor “baggy”, but rather have this comfortably loose fit. It’s not QUITE see through but i wouldn’t rock it without a bra.Sezane,0,$110,5’1-5’2 5’1-5’2,Button-DownContinue reading “Tomboy Shirt”
Macie Blouse
This is a true case of fantasy and reality do not line up at all! Use the link above to see how the product is marketed and check out what it really looks like below! I kid you not – this top was so bright and sparkly, it looked like something I would wear toContinue reading “Macie Blouse”
Chlo Shirt
Ugh, I’m so bummed about this shirt. This shirt is GORGEOUS. The beautiful buttons, the collar details, the lovely silky feel… There was no gaping at all which is not always the case (bought the size 4 which is my usual size). Unfortunately, it was totally utterly see-through. I’m wearing a nude bra which isContinue reading “Chlo Shirt”
Edouard Shirt
Very good quality, thick material. The cut by design is oversized so you can either take your regular size or size down as needed. My personal preference was to take my usual size so it still has an oversized vibe. Sezane,,$50, Button-Down Shirt,French Brands,Tops All Reviews,Sezane,Top
Jadis Cowl Neck Sleeveless Top
$122 (originally $175). This top definitely falls into the bucket of “would not have purchased if I were browsing online” but in the store, the fabric just looked so chic. Plus, I feel like a satin dressy top is a must for every woman. I got my usual size (size 1 in Ted Baker lingo,Continue reading “Jadis Cowl Neck Sleeveless Top”

Colette Marinière Top
I’ve had my eye on this style of shirt for awhile. I checked out versions in Saint James as well as Sézane and I figured at this price point, I would try this particular one. It’s just your standard boat neck shirt. The fabric is fine, if a little boxy. The fabric is actually aContinue reading “Colette Marinière Top”
Cotton Breton 3/4 Sleeve Frill Jumper
I’ve had this sweater for no less than a month now and I have worn it essentially every weekend! It’s the perfect casual sweater to pair with jeans. I would also wear it with a pencil skirt to the office. True to the brand, the quality is really excellent. I’ve tried Breton tops from LaContinue reading “Cotton Breton 3/4 Sleeve Frill Jumper”
Daria French Cuff Silk Blouse
I’m not a big fan of colors; I’m definitely not a big fan of patterns. 95% of my closet is black, navy, or neutrals so buying this blouse was a real departure. I discovered this designer on Instagram and instantly (and surpassingly) fell in love with her silk print blouses. I bit the bullet andContinue reading “Daria French Cuff Silk Blouse”
Cashmere Pullover with Gold Fasteners
Purchased for $297.5 (originally $595). Purchased on December 2022; reviewed on February 2023. TLDR: I probably would not have purchased this sweater at full price (almost $600 before tax is pretty obscene) but at this price point, I thought it was perfectly reasonable given the quality. FIT: I went with a small since msot sweatersContinue reading “Cashmere Pullover with Gold Fasteners”
Aretha Jumper
Purchased on November 2022; reviewed on February 2023. Background: So you might have noticed that, like most New Yorkers, my wardrobe leans very much in boring dark colors. This was my brief attempt at doing something whimsical and fun. I’m not sure I really succeeded… FIT: I had purchased other Sezane items before so IContinue reading “Aretha Jumper”
Sweater Tunis
Purchased on June 2022; reviewed on February 2023. TLDR: A “new” (to me at least) Parisian brand! I think I started getting bombarded with their ads because I had scrolled through the likes of Sezane and Sandro. I was excited to try ba&sh because it seemed like a very city chic style at a reasonableContinue reading “Sweater Tunis”
Phoebe Jersey Rollneck Top
Orignally $70. Purchased on February 2023; reviewed on February 2023. TLDR: A chic black turtleneck has long been on my to-buy list: who doesn’t want to tap into their inner Parisienne? It’s been long on my list and I finally saw a basic black turtleneck on the Reiss website during the winter sale. It wasContinue reading “Phoebe Jersey Rollneck Top”
