Chanel Heart Bag review: In which I bare my heart
“Responsible” is a word that gets thrown around much too much once you hit 30. … but, unlike an extra candle on your birthday cake, “responsibility” is hard to quantify.

HVN dress sizing review: Not all fit the same
You see, every now and then I’m love the idea of dressing totally simply, like everything that Phoebe Philo or Mary-Kate and Ashley hope how people would dress. … but then, I get distracted.

Mini, but mighty | Loewe Flamenco Bag Review
During lockdown, my then-boyfriend/now-husband asked what I thought about buying a ranch in Montana and I was like “uhhh…” … but then I was like “well, I always wanted to take up gardening.” By “take up gardening,” I mean buy potted flowers, realise I did not dig the hole big enough, pathetically plant them, try…

Shake your hips | RIXO dress SIZING and quality review
I’ve been thinking a lot about how to start my RIXO dress review… I’ve been deliberating writing about what makes an A+ summer dress. I’ve been wavering about starting it with a ramble about who’s behind the label. … but, this is the best way to kick off this review:
