Victoria Beckham
Studded Side Panel Jeans
huge
I'm a 28 rather consistently, but these were huge. Loose around my thighs, which is unusual since I unfortunately have really athletic build around that area, and huge around my butt/waist. I'm average height (173cm/5'7.5'') with longish legs, but I still wish the inseam was shorter. Although I'm a sucker for all things studded, that did not save these from being returned.
Sizing: Larger than Expected

HELMUT Helmut Lang
Kinetic Long Sleeve Tee
great basic
Everyone needs a high quality basic as this. Looks great under an office blazer or with jeans. It's a fitted cut, so if you're looking for a loose top, this is not it. I'm a 4/6 & 34C, got an M and it's fitted (though not clingy)
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected

Rebecca Taylor
Snake Print Peplum Top
pretty but large
Judging by the fit, the model is rather wearing an XS, not S. I'm a 4/6 with 34C normally, got an M and it's really big. S would have been muuuch better and still loose fitting
Sizing: Larger than Expected

Jil Sander
Wedge Booties
brilliant
Amazing shoes, but definitely size down at least half a size. I'm either a 39.5 (Giuseppe Zanotti) or 40 (Sergio Rossi). I got these in 40 and I definitely should have ordered 39.5 or even 39.
Sizing: Larger than Expected

Acquaverde
Ankle Skinny Jeans
nice but no stretch
I'm normally a 28 in most jeans. I got a 28 in these based on the reviews + shopbop size guide. They fit great around the butt (and are very flattering), but I could barely pull them on because of the thigh fit. Granted, I'm athletic, so I have a bit of muslces on my legs, but this has never been a problem before. I probably would have returned them if it wasn't for the fact that I accidentally ripped the tag of while unpacking them.
However, I've been wearing them to stretch them a bit, and while I still have a bit to go to feel comfortable, they are very nice. The color is good and like I said, they are very flattering on the butt (that part of the jeans is true to size and is no problem, no love handle issues).
Sizing: Smaller than Expected

Adia Kibur
Layered Bib Necklace
nice
I got this on sale and I'm glad - I think it's worth the half price, but i would never decide in favor of it at the original price. It is well made, and feels heavy (not uncomfortable). So far no problems with the clasp.
What is definitely great about it (other than the combination of thise tiny thing chains with big metal beads) is that the you can actually play around with the length of it, depending on your neckline. You can make a choker out of it or as shown.

Tess Engineer Boots with Skull Studs
love them, but they run small
I'm a 39.5/40 (sergio rossi 40, zanotti 39.5, jimmy choo 39.5/40; cazabat 40, weitzman 8.5/9 in the OTK boots). I got these in 39.5 and a 40 would definitely be much better. I'm hoping to wear them in and then perhaps take them for professional stretching.
The shoes themselves are reall great. Very high quality, and they actuallym anage to not look that bulky. I wanted a pair of biker boots for a while but was always put off by their clunky heaviness. While these are definitely sturdy, they actually don't make my foot look gynormous.
The skull details is very nice, btu most people won't be able to tell that they are skulls until they really have a look up close - I actually like them even more for that subtle touch :D.
Just so you're not surprised, the tips are actually pre-scratched, which is not shown that well on teh photos.

Belle by Sigerson Morrison
Varda T Strap Flats
love Belle flats
I am now a proud owner of two pairs of these flats and couldn't be happier. They are gorgeous and the design is so pretty. It is important to note that they are delicate, so if you intend on doing any walking in them outside of a shopping mall, you should get them resoled. But if that's your only concern than just get that sole done and get them. I've had compliments from women and men on them - when is the last time a man complimented a woman on a flat shoe?? I've never had this happen before :)
As most other reviewers mention, you should think of getting half a size bigger than your usual size.

AG Adriano Goldschmied
Super Skinny Legging Jeans
love
The blackberry color is gorgeous and very versatile. The inside is vey soft and they are easy to put on. They definitely feel like leather unlike many of the coated jeans.
I'm very happy I got them!!!
Just so you are aware though, as with slightly stiffer pants, there will be this crease in the back of your leg. The size on mine is absolutely perfect, anything larger would be loose and anything smaller would be too snug, but I still have that back crease around the thigh area on the back.

Jean-Michel Cazabat
Zelia Suede T Strap Pumps
wow!
These shoes are amazing and amazingly comfortable. What you can't see on the photo that well is that they have a tiny platform, with built in cushioning, which makes these sky high heels almost like slippers. Honestly, this can be now classified as one of my most comfortable shoes ever and definitely a "go to" pair for a night out if I'm planning on dancing. Yes, they are that comfortable.
The colors are also beautiful. In real life, the orange is less bright and rather more of a rusted brick. Right between the soal and the heel there's a "snake-skin" leatehr inset which makes them that much more unique. The color combination is gorgeous, shape beautiful and style oh so flattering.
However, they do run a bit small. I wanted to get a 39.5 because that's most of my european shoes sizing, however they didn't have it, so I sized up. Now the shoe fits like a glove. If I sized down, to 39, my heel would have been sticking out in the back - not an attractive look!
