    La grande bellezza | Realisation Par Monica Dress Review

    Note: Yuki here — I’d like to introduce you to my friend, Emerald Liu, who lives in Belgium. Emerald & I are constantly chatting about our shared (and might I say excellent) taste in music, literature, and fashion. As a massive fan of her own writing, I’m humbled that Emerald is graciously sharing her thoughts…

  • Vintage without the hassle | AGOLDE Parker Shorts Review

    Vintage without the hassle | AGOLDE Parker Shorts Review

    In 2010, I had this pair of vintage Levi’s denim shorts from What Goes Around Comes Around — I loved them. Side note: Don’t you think people sound so precious when they say their jeans are vintage Levi’s? — it’s like “oh, yes, you’re clever and unique with shorts you can’t readily buy anywhere.” ……

  • Super soft, but in between sizing | a Boyish Jeans Review

    Super soft, but in between sizing | a Boyish Jeans Review

    If you’ve read newinspired before, you know that there’s one topic that I particularly love/hate to talk about: Vintage Levi’s jeans. Those jeans are extremely elusive and mysterious to me. As a result, I’m always after jeans that mimic their style, but don’t require the work involved with sourcing and tailoring them. Enter: Boyish “The…

  • I tried (almost) everything Kate Moss modeled | a SKIMS review

    I tried (almost) everything Kate Moss modeled | a SKIMS review

    There’s a lot to write about the Kardashians. … like, I have a ton of thoughts about each sister and their momager. I mean, who doesn’t agree with, “the devil works hard, but Kris always works harder?” … but, as an ardent Kate Moss fan, I have even more thoughts about Kate’s SKIMS ads. The…

  • I fell in love with these dresses | LoveShackFancy Sizing Review

    I fell in love with these dresses | LoveShackFancy Sizing Review

    Do you remember the first time you saw a LoveShackFancy dress? I (weirdly) do. This is so random, but I saw a photo of Selena Gomez wearing a dress in 2018 and was like “who is this by???” — the dress was almost as cute as she is! Then, I figured out it was from…

    This slip dress HAS pockets | a Norma Kamali dress review

    Like everywhere in the world right now, it’s hot in Montana (where I’m currently on vacation). To combat the heat I needed a lightweight dress that was totally unfussy. … something like Norma Kamali’s slip dress. Simple, long, and classic, I was intrigued…

  • Are they THAT easy tho? Citizens of Humanity Marlow Easy Shorts review

    Are they THAT easy tho? Citizens of Humanity Marlow Easy Shorts review

    In the summer, if you’re like me, you prioritize ease. … actually, wait, no matter the season, if you’re like me, you prioritize ease. Pre-everything and post-everything — everything needs to veer towards “easy.” Slip on shoes, machine-washable clothes, hands-free handbags. Little things like buckling a pair of Mary Jane shoes takes too much time…

  • I tried ’em & wasn’t paid to | Knickey Organic Cotton Underwear Review

    I tried ’em & wasn’t paid to | Knickey Organic Cotton Underwear Review

    Let’s talk about what I never talk about — underwear. It’s so basic, yet it’s something that I often overlook. For day-to-day, simple cotton underwear is the absolute best in my books. … but finding the absolute best cotton underwear has proven difficult lately. Despite my love for the Gap’s underwear, ordering from them is…

  • It’s ehhh | An Everlane Japanese GoWeave Slip Dress review

    It’s ehhh | An Everlane Japanese GoWeave Slip Dress review

    There’s a problem with Everlane’s Japanese GoWeave slip dress. See, I was hoping that like their bodysuit, it would inspire me to write a lengthy review. In my imagination, the words would flow straight from my fingertips onto the screen. The dress would be delightful and this review would just come to me. … but,…
