Soft Joie
Hidalgo Striped Top
This purchase was inspired by a previous
I already own another Soft Joie top in same fabric. I was originally mistaken as to nature of fabric. This fabric is obviously the same but I think that the body of the top is a little loose, even if sizing is corerct in other respects. Colours are nice and it's very casual weekend top but I am not loving the fit like I do with my black/cream varieted stripe Soft Joie top.

Hi Rise Skinny Jeans
Glad I heeded the other reviewers ..
..because I can state that it is true that these jeans run small to size. My advice to others would be to get one size up from your usual size. These jeans are however, great value for money - Who knew 'cheap' jeans could look so fine?!! Am loving the colour, as well as the high waist. Only ever-so-slight criticism is they are just a teensy bit shorter than I'd like (ankle-bashers). Are they meant to be like this? - I can't be certain. I am 5'11 so would like a little extra length; but overall very pleased. FANTASTIC value.

Jeunesse
Fanny Sleeveless Blouse
Better than I'd hoped for ..
Basic, sheer, black, sleeveless Summer blouse; a wardrode staple in my opinion; and got this on uber-sale so couldn't be more pleased. The size is utter perfection and the length is great; long enough to cover my long torso (I am 5'11"). I was most delighted by (in person) how expensive this blouse looks for the price, as well as the beautiful detailing at the shoulders which is also really subtle. This will look great layered over the lace body suit I purchased as well. So excited!!

Kipton Braided Tote
Oh disappointment!
This arrived today and I was so eagerly awaiting this bag. It was part of my 'bag project' where I was starting from scratch and re-kitting my entire day bag full of shiny, new things. How I wanted to love this and for it to fit perfectly into my grand plan, but alas, twas not to be... Firstly, it's too small: I wanted a proper day bag that fits half my life; iPhone, umbrella, makeup, wallet, keys, pillbox, sunglasses, a pair of flats, hosiery, and all the feminine essentials, you get my drift... I have stuff I need to cart around. I was excited by the prospect of lots of compartments, ones with zips, but this has two very minute zip-pockets that barely hold a case of mints in one and sanitary items in the other. Boo: disappointment! Underwhelmed by the design; massively! Also, the bag will struggle with the weight of what it needs to contain and I fear for the longevity of the handles and strap. Although, to contradict earlier reviewer, I was surprised that I didn't mind the bagstrap.

Logo Plaque Flats
Thoroughly satisfied
Perfect flats. Supremely comfortable. True to size (got the11). Gorgeous snakeskin leather in great blend of colours. These go with so many different things and can even become the feature and focus of an outfit. I love these so much they'll become indoor shoes.

Moonray Pullover Sweater
Beautiful combination of colours
Was compelled to get this because I loved the colours. Fit is nice, though could perhaps be a tiny bit longer in the torso. This colour combination is extremely complementary to my complexion and fabric also feels nice against the skin.

Soft Joie
Gilda Variegated Stripe Top
Quality is excellent
Paid full price for this top, though notice it's now on sale, but that's ok. Even at full price it's value-for-money as quality is stand-out. Got the small, and fit is lovely; it's meant to be a bit loose (not figure-hugging style). If you want it to cling to your shape then size down, but otherwise,stick to standard sizing. The quality of cotton used is so nice to touch. The 'variegated' stripes are a nice feature too. Great purchase; couldn't be happier.

Kenneth Jay Lane
Enamel Hoop Earrings
Waaaay too heavy
If I wore these earrings for more than a few minutes I think my lobes might become permanently stretched!! These hoops were A LOT bigger than expected, and so so heavy (Why so heavy??!!?) Not practical; although very pretty and obviously quality materials were used in their construction. I don't know if I will be able to wear these for an extended period of time owing to their weight, though, which is a shame.

Only Hearts
So Fine Lace Longline Bralette
Not what I was expecting ...
Ordered the small which was fine, size-wise, but my main disappointment with this garment was not only the lack of any support, but that the lined fabric squishes/flattens the bosom in a not-so-flattering way. Unless you are an A or B cup, I would steer clear.

Dolce Vita
Agustina Ikat Shorts
Snug fit but cute pattern
Things I am liking about these shorts: the unique pattern, the cut (flattering), the luxe belt that comes with them. Things I'm not so hot on: they are smallish size - I sized up owing to availability of the size 2, but even the size 4 is too small on me!! Yikes. I will squeeze into them and get my money's worth this southern summer anyhow, though.
