Debunking THE Instagram shoe | Chanel Dad Sandals review
From the OTT “new Bottega” bunch, the bisou Paris vintage crowd, the Scandi norm-core pack, even the #CottageCore crowd, everyone on Instagram dresses the same. While I will moan and complain about how Instagram ruined personal style, I still got sucked in and bought a pair of the most Instagrammy ~influencer~ shoes that transcends every…

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
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
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…

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.” ……

Super soft, but in between sizing | a Boyish Jeans Review
If you’ve read newinspired before, you know that there’s one topic that I particularly love/hate to talk about: Vintage Levi’s jeans. Those jeans are extremely elusive and mysterious to me. As a result, I’m always after jeans that mimic their style, but don’t require the work involved with sourcing and tailoring them. Enter: Boyish “The…

Something feels off… | a Loeffler Randall Goldy boots review
Knee high boots are tough to buy. … at least I think they are. This is probably why, other than my Isabel Marant Denvee boots, I’ve never really bought a pair. There’s never really been a pair that stepped up to the plate — despite how much I’ve always want some knee high boots. ……

I tried (almost) everything Kate Moss modeled | a SKIMS review
There’s a lot to write about the Kardashians. … like, I have a ton of thoughts about each sister and their momager. I mean, who doesn’t agree with, “the devil works hard, but Kris always works harder?” … but, as an ardent Kate Moss fan, I have even more thoughts about Kate’s SKIMS ads. The…

I fell in love with these dresses | LoveShackFancy Sizing Review
Do you remember the first time you saw a LoveShackFancy dress? I (weirdly) do. This is so random, but I saw a photo of Selena Gomez wearing a dress in 2018 and was like “who is this by???” — the dress was almost as cute as she is! Then, I figured out it was from…

Weird sizing, but so cute | an Ancient Greek Sandals review
For the longest time I’ve held out on buying Ancient Greek Sandals. Truth be told, it’s because I’m brand loyal to K. Jacques. … and I didn’t need another pair of leather sandals that look like my favourite French pairs. Then Ancient Greek Sandals did a collaboration with HVN. … and if you follow me…
