    I wore it for 6 days straight: A Naadam Cashmere Sweater Review

    By now, you may have heard about Naadam and their cashmere. In case you haven’t, basically their whole “thing” is basically being mindful of social impact and the environment. In that respect, Naadam’s kind of like Reformation… but with a specialization in cashmere. They do a ton of volunteer work and even more work to…

    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.” ……

    It’s ehhh | An Everlane Japanese GoWeave Slip Dress review

    There’s a problem with Everlane’s Japanese GoWeave slip dress. See, I was hoping that like their bodysuit, it would inspire me to write a lengthy review. In my imagination, the words would flow straight from my fingertips onto the screen. The dress would be delightful and this review would just come to me. … but,…

    Are these sweatpants for real? | Réalisation Par Sweats Review

    “They took us a year to perfect, but the wait is worth it! With a classic 70’s sweatsuit and a 90’s Sharon Stone in our minds, we worked hard to get this duo to be the perfect pair. The pants should make you feel like you want to get up and hit that reformer, pound…

  • How good is it? | a Neiman Marcus Cashmere Review

    How good is it? | a Neiman Marcus Cashmere Review

    My sister was the one who introduced me to cashmere. Until she bought multiple cashmere sweaters from Holt Renfrew (Canada’s answer to Neiman Marcus), cashmere was something I’d only ever read about in Sophie Kinsella novels. In other words, cashmere was a luxurious figment of my imagination. With Canada being a warm memory, but Holt’s…

    I sweat the small stuff with ’em | Entireworld Sweatpants Review

    Note: RIP Entireworld, you will live fondly in our minds for getting us through 2020/work from home days. Somewhere around 2006, I’d imitate those starlets you’d see in US Weekly or inTouch and wear sweatpants out in public — they were Juicy Couture, what do you want from me? Since the mid-aughts, I’ve totally stopped…

    TBH, they’re hit or miss | An Everlane T-Shirt Review

    First was the bodysuit. … then came the cashmere sweater and the button down shirt followed suit. I’d say half of my Everlane clothes have been great. Considering half these past purchases were great, I was like “what about Everlane’s t-shirts?” … but, also considering that half these past purchases were not great, I was…
