  • Are They Worth It? My MIKOH Bikini Reviews ft. Sizing Tips

    Are They Worth It? My MIKOH Bikini Reviews ft. Sizing Tips

    After I first stepped foot off the plane in Anguilla, ready to call it home for the foreseeable future, I realised that there was one thing I did not plan for: Solid swimwear. My sister raved about MIKOH bikinis and, well, I do everything she says, so I bought a few too. … and so,…

  • Are they actually good snow boots? Isabel Marant Nowles boots review

    Are they actually good snow boots? Isabel Marant Nowles boots review

    Joining the ranks of Julius Caesar and Joni Mitchell Leonard Cohen*, I am also as constant as the Northern Star. … at least when it comes to my brand loyalty for “nice” boots. Loeffler Randall boots are just “fine.” Christian Louboutin boots are so sophisticated. … and, ummm, hmmm, well, this is embarrassing… You see,…

  • From sizing to quality: An Isabel Marant Dicker Boots Review

    From sizing to quality: An Isabel Marant Dicker Boots Review

    Isabel Marant Dicker boots first came onto the scene in 2009/2010. I purchased my first pair of Dickers in 2011. … then I purchased another… and another pair. Everyone has a favourite brand.

  • Manolo Blahnik BB Sizing Review: How To Get Them To Fit Like a Glove

    Manolo Blahnik BB Sizing Review: How To Get Them To Fit Like a Glove

    Available in a variety of heel heights and leathers, the BBs are the quintessential pump. It doesn’t matter if you work a 9-to-5 or if you’re Rihanna (she’s a fan!), these heels work, work, work for everyone. “Manolo Blahnik…” … the name is just so iconic. It’d be possible to write a review about a…

  • Sizing, Quality, Stockists & More | K. Jacques Sandals Review

    Sizing, Quality, Stockists & More | K. Jacques Sandals Review

    K Jacques have been making sandals in St. Tropez since the 1930s. They were handmade by artisans then… and 90 years later, they still are. Basically, K. Jacques have been the sandals that the well-heeled French have been wearing for close to a decade. K. Jacques has worked with Givenchy, Isabel Marant, and a particularly…

  • Bella Freud Sweater Review: I’ve got three and all the size details

    Bella Freud Sweater Review: I’ve got three and all the size details

    15 years ago, I found a picture of Kate Moss wearing a white denim skirt, a pair of black flats, and a jumper (or sweater) that said “Ginsberg is God.” In 2019, it’s super obvious who designed it. … but 14 years ago? No idea. After scouring every issue of any British fashion magazine I…

  • APC Denim Mini Skirt Review: It’s Short and Sweet

    APC Denim Mini Skirt Review: It’s Short and Sweet

    First impression: it’s short. Second impression: it’s really short. Third impression: it’s perfect. Their description of the skirt? Very stiff canvas that wears in over time. Very short cut, slightly flared. High waist. A.P.C. clothing is generally pretty “1970’s Kindergarten teacher-esque.”

  • Rag & Bone T-Shirt Sizing & Quality Review: They Fit To A T

    Rag & Bone T-Shirt Sizing & Quality Review: They Fit To A T

    That perfect white (or black) t-shirt… the ultimate foundation for a perfect outfit. I briefly tried Reformation’s basic t-shirts… but they failed to impress. In 2011 Rag & Bone did a DIY ad series with Lily Aldridge. I’m obsessed with her style… and then became obsessed with Rag & Bone’s jeans and t-shirts. … and…

  • Walk This Way: GRLFRND Eva Denim Skirt Review

    Walk This Way: GRLFRND Eva Denim Skirt Review

    This is a review for the GRLFRND Eva A-Frame Gusset Skirt in “Walk This Way”… Saying the name of the skirt in its entirety is important. Because my first tip off that I wouldn’t love this skirt should have been the unnecessarily long name. The second is that I only thought it was unnecessarily long…

  • The Real Real Review: More Isabel Marant

    The Real Real Review: More Isabel Marant

    Since my first The Real Real Review (here), I’ve done a lot of searching… And I finally found it. The Isabel Marant Mira cutout dress that I’ve wanted forever/since I saw it on Lily Aldridge. In my first review, I went on about my love for SS/13 Isabel Marant. Isabel Marant captured everything that I…
