    You know I thoroughly tested it | Guest in Residence cashmere review

    “KNITWEAR DESIGNED TO LAST YEARS, NOT SEASONS.” -Guest in Residence’s mantra Maybe it’s because I’ve moved to a chilly climate, that I want to add more cashmere to my closet. Maybe it’s because no matter where you live, cashmere is always a good idea. As much as I love Gigi Hadid, celebrity “Creative Director” and…

  • Still Worth It?: My Rag & Bone Jeans Review ft. Quality & Sizing Tips

    Still Worth It?: My Rag & Bone Jeans Review ft. Quality & Sizing Tips

    In 2011, Rag & Bone got my attention with their DIY ad campaigns. I was going through a massive Kings of Leon obsession and their Lily Aldridge campaign pulled me in. So carefree, real, and effortlessly rock ‘n’ roll. In five years, this denim brand has become my favourite. I’ve bought seven pairs of Rag…

    I wore it for 6 days straight: A Naadam Cashmere Sweater Review

    By now, you may have heard about Naadam and their cashmere. In case you haven’t, basically their whole “thing” is basically being mindful of social impact and the environment. In that respect, Naadam’s kind of like Reformation… but with a specialization in cashmere. They do a ton of volunteer work and even more work to…

    I totally tested these jeans | a Levi’s Wedgie Fit Straight Jeans Review

    Currently in my drawer(s) there are 27 pairs of jeans. … and this isn’t even to mention all the jeans I’ve donated over the years… or my denim shorts. From 2004 (omg remember Earnest Sewn bootcut jeans???) to 2020, a good pair of jeans will bring out your finest assets. In my top shelf drawer,…

  • Beat the heat | Matteau dress review

    Beat the heat | Matteau dress review

    My style in Panamá has changed significantly since I first moved here in 2016. What started as, “I’ll wear leather ballet flats and jeans with a nice top and maybe some extra accessories like a belt or three necklaces! Oh, should I use my suede Proenza PS1 or my Chanel patent leather bag tonight?” Quickly…

  • I tried them & wasn’t paid to: a Levi’s Ribcage Jeans Review

    I tried them & wasn’t paid to: a Levi’s Ribcage Jeans Review

    From your dad back home in Ohio to the latest it-girl in France. … everyone wears Levi’s. Except for me, apparently. It makes sense — I’m not your dad and, as hard as I may try, I’m not a French it-girl. When I saw Levi’s Ribcage jeans though, I was like, “hmmm, let’s see if…

  • Are They Worth It? My MIKOH Bikini Reviews ft. Sizing Tips

    Are They Worth It? My MIKOH Bikini Reviews ft. Sizing Tips

    After I first stepped foot off the plane in Anguilla, ready to call it home for the foreseeable future, I realised that there was one thing I did not plan for: Solid swimwear. My sister raved about MIKOH bikinis and, well, I do everything she says, so I bought a few too. … and so,…

  • Zimmermann Wrap Dress Review: They make getting dressed easy

    Zimmermann Wrap Dress Review: They make getting dressed easy

    When it comes to dressing, I live off easy dresses that make getting dressed, well, easy. A simple garment, like an elevated dress, does the majority of the heavy lifting. … which is ideal for those of us who don’t want to deal with, like, 13 different bells & whistles to “make” an outfit. So,…

    90’s Seduction: Realisation Par’s The Scarlet Dress Review

    Note: Yuki here — my friend Emerald has written for newinspired before and she’s back at it again with this review on Réalisation Par’s Scarlet dress… The Scarlet slips into 90’s nostalgia with its purple leopard print, taking us on a trip along memory lane. The distinctive print is a twist on the classic animal…

  • Rag & Bone Denim Shorts Review: Ugh…

    Rag & Bone Denim Shorts Review: Ugh…

    There’s this pair of Rag & Bone denim short shorts, the Mila shorts in “Moss,” that I love. If they were a child, they’d be entering grade 4 — like, they’re around 10 years old. Rag & Bone discontinued the Mila, but I still bought a “reserve” pair on eBay, just in case my first…
