“I just wanted to be one of the Strokes, now look at the mess you made me make.”-Arctic Monkeys – “Star Treatment” (2018) In 2004, the arguable (mainstream) peak of the Strokes, I bought my first pair of high top Converse from Urban Outfitters. 12:51 was (and still is) my favourite song — despite being…

Ulla Johnson Dress Review: Are These $$$ Dresses Worth It?
We’ve all ready talked about how I am a goopster. Wait, “goopster” sounds weird. What I mean to say is, I’m “goopy.” … that’s not right either. What I actually mean by saying “I’m a goopy goopster” is that I love Gwyneth Paltrow’s goop. Now that really doesn’t sound right, but whatever.

Castañer Espadrilles Review: A Perfect Summer Shoe ft. Sizing & Outfits+
After moving “home” to the Caribbean, I needed a pair of shoes that could be worn to a sandy Sunday lunch just as easily as a Government building. I’ve always been a fan of espadrilles… but have never been able to find the perfect pair. There’s always something wrong with them. The material is too…

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
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.

With Jéan Size Review: I’m with Jéan for this dress
With Jéan kinda came out of nowhere in 2017 and took the Instagram fashion world by surprised.

How To Wear Mom Jeans Today and Every Day
Are “mom jean” style jeans even called mom jeans anymore? Wouldn’t a better name be slightly 90’s high waisted fashion-esque jeans that everyone now wears?.. but I guess that’s too long. Call them what you want, mom jeans are here to stay. With everyone and their mother wearing this denim, how do you make them…

Réalisation Par Kate Dress Size Review: I waited 2 years for it
After the lightly disappointing Naomi skirt, I took a break from Réalisation Par. … and then my eBay alert dinged: the Kate dress in red polka dot was just listed. There’s something so sweetly and slightly seductive about a white dress with red polka dots. I’ve been trying to find the Kate dress and Rouje’s…

Rouje Gino Trousers Review: Summer in the shape of slacks
Did you see those floral trousers on Jeanne Damas’ Instagram? Of course they’re from Rouje. I’ll do a summery dress, obviously, or a summery skirt, but I’ve never been one for summery trousers. But Rouje’s Gino trousers? Oh boy, they look like a French summer party pants.

Maison Michel Hat Review: I tip my hat to this historical milliner
You know how Castañer is deep-rooted in fashion history for creating the best espadrilles for Yves Saint Laurent or Hermès? It’s the same for Maison Michel’s hats. In the mid 1930’s Maison Michel made a name for themselves with their millinery talent. By the 70’s, they were crafting caps for houses like Dior, Valentino, and…
