Equipment
Nixie Blouse
Impeccable, flawless, timeless
Love, love, love. What else can I say. Also bought this at a reduced priced. You cannot go wrong with Equipment anyway, but a staple silk shirt with a feature cut-out shoulder; you can do so much with this! I have received an abundance of compliments every time I've worn this so far. I am in love with this shirt and this label. Full stop!
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected
Good construction, but slightly too high
I am impressed with these booties in all respects, with the exception of their height - they are just too high to be practical and comfortable for long periods. Otherwise, every other aspect of their design is unreal. Fit is great, look is on-trend (am loving the low-dip-ankle cut) and the soles are incredibly cool (with the snakey feature). I just think, unless you are a midget, that the height of these booties make you look a tad ridiculous. But I will keep them and wear them at appropriate times none-the-less.

Milly
Basket Weave Sheath Dress
General all-round niceness
Very pleased with this dress and I bought it at a bargain price - 50% off - and would have certainly paid more for it. Beautiful fabric and tailoring, some incredibly unique design-features with the basket-weave front styling. This dress will be a classic and will age well. Only slight critisism is that it is ever so too short in length, but then I am 5'11" (so perhaps the problem is not so much with the garment, as the wearer)

Questionable value
I bought this after seeing it featured in ShopBop's Top Sellers List, and because I don't own anything else like it. It's nice, but just average nice, because the fabric is a mixture of all-sorts that makes laundering a challenge. I am a fastidious laundress and it bothers me when a garment is more trouble than it's worth to care for, so if I had my time over I would have bought a similar design that's less high maintenance. I believe the leather finishes require it to only be specialty-cleaned, so I am trying to get two wears out of it before taking it in to the be cleaned by 'special people'.... grrr, yes, just slightly annoyed, I am. Otherwise, it is a classic shirt and I very much like the design, cut, and features in its construction.

Splendid
Sleeveless Blouse
Nice and simple
Nice, classic, simple basic. Bought on sale though still feel it was slightly overpriced for the garment's quality. It also requires regular pressing (after ever wash and wear!) otherwise it can look scruffy. Not disappointed though. Will get some use out of this over Summer, I suspect, as it will go with everything.

CLARE VIVIER
Fold Over Clutch
Feel a bit jipped
This is a nice simple clutch; a classic, in fact. However, I feel like I've been swindled in terms of the price. This item is waaaaaay overpriced for what it is. Even $100 for this item would be excessive. I am not averse to paying good money for quality and value but I feel like here I'm paying for an idea. I will use this, and take care of it (owing to the colour), but would otherwise return it if I didn't live in Australia.

BB Dakota
Rohan Blazer
Good buy for under $100
This blazer was what I expected in terms of quality, as you can't ask for much more from synthetic fibres, really. Per previous reviewers: the creases do iron out (if you can be bothered to press the garment that is), but otherwise I guess the creasing could become a nuisance. I would also consider buying this in the black, because the cut is nice, contemporary and can be worn with almost anything. A great wardrode staple; and I'm not going to cry if anything happens to it either.

Most fun jeans ever
I am a first time purchasor of this brand, and was not disappointed. Sizing was accurate (I am a 27 mostly), although have been known to need a 28 (eek!), but these fit to perfection. The patched knees are a great, fun feature and have led to me receiving lots of compliments because these really are a little bit different from your typical jeans. Great quality; well constructed; flattering to my trouble spots (thighs and bum) and generally pleasing in every way. I will get a truckload of wear out of these.

Jeffrey Campbell
Flava Pumps
Excellent quality shoes for the price
Cannot fault these. They fit perfectly, they smell good (like real leather should!), and the top cap is in good proportion to the shoe without being too in-your-face. Loving these and feel like they are really good value for the price too.

Bop Basics
Draped Jacket
Hmmm, irked by the shoulder-pads
OK: I did read the other reviews before purchasing and thought I would take a punt regarding the comments about the shoulder pads, but I am a tad miffed that they can be seen through the fabric. Surely this wasn't intended?!? Otherwise, this jacket is a beautiful cut, shape and fabric is great quality, but if this design is reconfigured perhaps the shoulder-pad issue might be addressed !!
