All Reviews By Mondler

This is another purchase where I'm surprised at the 5 star reviews people have given it. I read the descriptions, and I knew it would be a slightly heavier dress, but didn't realize that would be a huge issue. The dress material is extremely comfortable, but it feels like it's about 4 layers thick (2 layers too many). As a result, it keeps falling down and requires me to pull it up every 5 minutes. Also, the straps that people rave about really don't do any favours to your chest. Overall, will use this dress around the house but it's not comfortable to wear for prolonged periods of time.

I don't really understand the 5 star reviews on this product - I read all the reviews and ordered the jumpsuit. I was excited to get it as fun walk around piece, but... the elastic waist band is oddly placed - it makes the top part of the jumpsuit an awkward length where it's too long and bunches, or if you try to fold the top to make it shorter, it becomes too short. The material itself is a crepe cotton, which looks nice for your first wear - otherwise, very easy to stretch the crepe and it looks extremely saggy (namely the butt after sitting or the knees). Not so happy with this jumpsuit, would go for other ones listed on the website instead.

Ordered the dress because it looked like a great cut, and conservative enough for work. However, once I received it I realized the material was a inflexible cotton material, and the black was slightly faded so that the fabric wouldn't age well. In the end, loved the shape, size was great, but the material used made the dress look cheap.

I ordered both the black and red shirts in M (I am usually size 6 or M), and was disappointed with how big they were! These would have been great with a tank or opaque bra underneath, but still looked baggy and far too big. Disappointed, but had to return and by the time I checked again the S was sold out!

A really beautiful shoe, and I love the two tone that makes it easier to match to work outfits. The price for the brand is really reasonable. That said, I am usually between a 7.5 and 8, and ordered a size 8. The shoe was long enough, but my narrow foot kept slipping out of it which made it difficult to walk. In the end I returned the shoe.

The title says it all - maybe I missed the boat on a new trend, but the "batwing" sleeves looked ridiculous and made me look like I was 5 feet wide. Really disappointed, since the material is truly lovely and the price is reasonable (hence the 3 star review). If you are looking for pure comfort in something cashmere-y, then buy this - but don't expect to look like you have any curves at all.

I was looking for a comfy sweater/cardigan to wear while traveling and on cooler days while visiting London. This sweater is exactly as presented in the picture - length, pattern and fit all look the same as on the model. I am 5"9 and usually a size 6, but I ordered the size S and I am glad I did, it fits very well. The assymetrical collar adds a bit of something interesting on an otherwise regular sweater - same with the sleeves with thumb holes, I absolutely loved that. THe only negative: I tend to wear my clothes, especially ones I like, a lot - I wore this sweater every other day on my trip and noticed that the material on the sleeves and where I would wear my purse has pilled and in some cases pulled the threads - not a great look for a sweater I have owned for 2 weeks!

On the plus side: material is lovely and light, colour is great, length is nice. Basically everything you see in the picture is what you get. However, the fit of the dress is a bit weird - the elastic waist is quite tight, which make the material bunch up quite unflatteringly on both the top and bottom of the elastic. The material also is quite tight at the neck and adds to the material bunching up on the top to make it look like quite a bubble. Perhaps the solution is to get a bigger size but the dress is meant for casual walking and not to compliment curves on the body.

I am usually a size M or 6 US, but looking at the style of this dress, I ordered it in S so that it wouldnt seem so baggy. It was a great call, because the dress fits very well and looks less like a potato sack and more like a cute but comfortable frock. The length is slightly shorter than I would wear, but I think that is only because I am based in the UAE - anywhere in the Western world the length would not be an issue at all. My only complaint is that the dress came with a rip at one of the seams in the front - I wouldn't normally expect that from a MJ or shopbop product, and I wonder if this is a sign that the seams will be sensitive to ripping.

I own multiple pairs of Tory Burch shoes (flip flops, Revas, flats) so I know that I have to order a size 8 for them to fit properly (I am between a 7.5 and 8). However, I just ordered these shoes and tried them on today, and I find the size 8 to be uncomfortably tight. I'm quite disappointed, since they are now sold out in 8.5 and most other sizes. That being said, the padding does seem to make the shoes light and flexible, and the patent makes them go from slipper-looking shoes to more formal ones that you can even wear to work.
