Lovely but tight fit
This jacket is gorgeous and my only complaint is that its a little on the tight side across the back. I've a very narrow frame and normally take a size small or size 2. Its lovely enough for me to ignore this minor annoyance and keep it however.
Sizing: Smaller than Expected
Nice
Bought these jeans in a size 25 and the fit is perfect, I'm a size 25 in J brand and citizens so these are true to size with a nice little bit of stretch. They are definitely 'low rise' and do tend towards 'builders bum' at times so a generous top tucked in or worn just over the waistband is a good idea. The denim is exactly as shown in photos. A great staple for the Summer months.

A Good 'Day Wear' Jean
Big fan of Avedon Jeans but not the 'slick' version as they tend to veer towards 'Jeggings' . These are definitely 'jeans', great support and that lovely Avedon shape. These jeans are a little more generous at the ankle which is a minor annoyance for tucking into ankle boots, hate when my jeans rise out of the boot and these tend to do that. Mid blue colour is good for a day wear jean, would go for more of an indigo colour for a dressy night out jean. Size 25 seems to fit me in all the Citizens styles too. Bottom line, nice jeans but wish they were better fitting at the ankles.

Its good but expected better
I am normally a US size 4 so followed advice on this jacket and ordered a size down in a 2. Its fits but is actually on the snug side, particularly the sleeves. I'm 5'7'' and a standard US 4/ UK 8. Leather is thin and this is a lightweight jacket, no room for sweaters under it so only an outerwear piece in high Spring and Summer. Throw it over a tee and jeans and its a great easy impact piece. Overall verdict is nice jacket but at this price I probably expected more Wow for my buck.

Elvia Back Button Top
Classic Lace
This is the second lace top I have bought from Joie so I had a good idea what to expect. The colour is lovely and soft and it does look lovely over a white layering vest as shown in the the photo. True to form from Joie , its a lose fit and can just slip over your head without doing the buttons. I bought the same size as on the model and its just right for me. What I really love about these lace tops is that you will still be able to wear them in 20 years, they stand the test of time.

Aaliyah Blouse
Good Basic Piece
I bought this in the sale so I got it for a great price. Its a very basic top, not as dressy as it comes accross in photo. Its two layers of fine silk fabric and hangs longer than expected but works as a good basic under outerwear jackets etc. I bought the small size, xs would have worked a bit better I think. (I usually go with the models size)

Dagger Rosary Necklace
Breaks All The Time
I love this necklace and would love to wear it a lot but the problem is it breaks very easily, one little tug or snag and the links come apart. Such a shame. I'm trying to figure out a way to 'solder' the links somehow as I love this so much.

Trophy Top
Nice Purchase
This top is exactly as it looks in the photo. Just very easy to throw on and you are nicely dressed. I normally use the models size as a guide and generally go for the same size, the size 2 was sold out when I was buying so I chanced the 4, its the type of top you can get away with a little extra as its a 'shift' shape. The 4 is fine, nobody would notice its a little big on me, should be slightly more fitted at the back but still looks great. I wore with skinny jeans and patent heels, got lots of compliments. Great way to wear the coloured lace trend easily.

June Blouse
Lovely Color
The color of this top is lovely and the loose style makes it a great blouse worn out over skinnies or tucked into bootcut jeans. Fabric is very fine and could have been packed better, was in a ball of creases when it arrived. I ordered the same size as the model and it was perfect (normally about a size 4 American)

Fanny Lace Top
Lovely Lace
I love lace tops and this one is great for daytime wear. It was as expected nice quality. I ordered a small size (am normally size 4). Its a boxy shape so there is plenty of room, hard to say if an xs would have fit better or not. Totally wearable and easy piece.
