  • HVN dress sizing review: Not all fit the same

    HVN dress sizing review: Not all fit the same

    You see, every now and then I’m love the idea of dressing totally simply, like everything that Phoebe Philo or Mary-Kate and Ashley hope how people would dress. … but then, I get distracted. HVN’s fun prints takeover my mind and it changes faster than I can add another to my online shopping cart. Harley…

  • How Do These Cool Clothes Fit? A Reformation Dress Review

    How Do These Cool Clothes Fit? A Reformation Dress Review

    When it comes to Reformation’s clothes, I just can’t quit them. Since 2012, I’ve always come crawling back hoping that they’ll magically fit &flatter me. In 2014 I “needed” a black dress for a trip to Paris. I headed straight to the Ref. All of them were a bit too short and made my legs…

  • Nightmare or a daydream? | A Hill House Home Nap Dress Review

    Nightmare or a daydream? | A Hill House Home Nap Dress Review

    Who doesn’t love a good nap? … and I don’t mean the kind of nap that you accidentally stumble upon. Bad night’s sleep with a chaotic day, so you do a quick yoga practice and accidentally fall asleep in savasana. Sure, it does the job, but you’re in tight spandex and lying on the ground.…

  • Shake your hips | RIXO dress SIZING and quality review

    Shake your hips | RIXO dress SIZING and quality review

    I’ve been thinking a lot about how to start my RIXO dress review… I’ve been deliberating writing about what makes an A+ summer dress. I’ve been wavering about starting it with a ramble about who’s behind the label. … but, this is the best way to kick off this review:

  • Go on, pants me | a Frame Le Cut Off denim shorts review

    Go on, pants me | a Frame Le Cut Off denim shorts review

    Do you ever feel like sometimes your denim cut-offs are too casual? Like, you need something more pulled together? Anyways, sometimes I want to look like my life is in order (and that apparently starts by getting non-frayed shorts). With no tears or rips, Frame’s “Le Cutoff” cuffed denim shorts should be the ultimate not…

  • They can just Falke off | a Falke Tights Review

    They can just Falke off | a Falke Tights Review

    OK, so I ordered Falke tights from Shopbop and they arrived with a hole in them. Kinda weird and definitely annoying, right? What’s more strange and even more frustrating is Shopbop would only refund me if I sent them back. So, I did something I’m not proud of and asked the customer service rep to…

  • Tights that’ll keep you in check | a SPANX tights review

    Tights that’ll keep you in check | a SPANX tights review

    If you’re like me, winter ushers a chilly snow cloud over your days… From accidentally eating dinner at 5:00pm (because it’s dark out) to generally feeling blergh (because you ate dinner at 5), winter sucks. … and if you’re like me, wearing tights that compress your legs & abdomen is winter’s only silver lining. After…

  • La grande bellezza | Realisation Par Monica Dress Review

    La grande bellezza | Realisation Par Monica Dress Review

    Note: Yuki here — I’d like to introduce you to my friend, Emerald Liu, who lives in Belgium. Emerald & I are constantly chatting about our shared (and might I say excellent) taste in music, literature, and fashion. As a massive fan of her own writing, I’m humbled that Emerald is graciously sharing her thoughts…

  • Super big, but super flattering | AGOLDE Jeans review

    Super big, but super flattering | AGOLDE Jeans review

    After my AGOLDE Parker shorts, I was totally sold on AGOLDE jeans. Those shorts were perfect. … but AGOLDE’s sizing? Super inconsistent. During Shopbop’s bi-annual sale, the lure of silver AGOLDE Nico jeans reeled me faster than any dazzling bobby.

  • Vintage without the hassle | AGOLDE Parker Shorts Review

    Vintage without the hassle | AGOLDE Parker Shorts Review

    In 2010, I had this pair of vintage Levi’s denim shorts from What Goes Around Comes Around — I loved them. Side note: Don’t you think people sound so precious when they say their jeans are vintage Levi’s? — it’s like “oh, yes, you’re clever and unique with shorts you can’t readily buy anywhere.” ……
