Matteau Swimwear SIZING Review: The It Girl Approved Bikini
Where do cool girls buy their swimwear? A question that’s rattled around for years. … then Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Jeanne Damas, and Sabina Socol popped up in Matteau swimwear and the wheels started turning. Is this the swimwear brand that I’ve been searching for?

They’re SO 90’s | an in-depth The Row Ginza Sandals Review
For two reasons, The Row’s Ginza shoes remind me of Blondie’s hit song, “One Way or Another.” 1- “One Way or Another” was featured in the 1998 classic film, The Rugrats Movie, when Angelica scales cliffs in inclement weather to try and find her beloved Cynthia doll. 2- While I didn’t scale cliffs to find…

Are these sweatpants for real? | Réalisation Par Sweats Review
“They took us a year to perfect, but the wait is worth it! With a classic 70’s sweatsuit and a 90’s Sharon Stone in our minds, we worked hard to get this duo to be the perfect pair. The pants should make you feel like you want to get up and hit that reformer, pound…

These flats are NOT demi-done | A Margaux Shoe Review
Honestly, after those Italic flats, I’m so over DTC brands. They’re never quite as good as they claim to be. … but every now and then, Margaux has crossed my web browsing. My close friend, Cassandra, keeps talking about them too (is Google reading my iMessages? (jk, I know they’re end-to-end encrypted… or are they??)).

Celine Small Trio Bag Review: How much has changed under Hedi?
Note: In recent months, it seems like the Celine Trio bag has been discontinued… however, you can still find it on resale sites like The Luxury Closet, The Real Real, or Vestiaire Collective.

I tried those French Mary Jane shoes | A Carel Kina review
My Converse were because of the Strokes. Manolo Blahnik BBs? Emmanuelle Alt. … and my Isabel Marant Dicker boots were 100% influenced by Lily Aldridge. So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that my Carel Kina Mary Jane shoe purchase was heavily influenced by Alexa Chung. With the little heel and their Mary Jane style, these shoes…

G. Label Clothing Review: How the eff is a t-shirt so $$$?
Somewhere between an inherently anxious disposition, a tendency to fall asleep during Savasana, and a proclivity for Old Fashioneds, I try to follow Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop in hopes of being more, well, goopy. That doesn’t mean I’m totally balls to the wall. I pick and choose what to practice; vegan chickpea “tuna” salad, yes; jade…

The trickiest sizing | a Repetto Cendrillon ballerinas review
Over the last 15 years, Repetto’s Cendrillon ballet flats have been in and out of my life. There was the first black pair I bought at Rosenstein (RIP) in Montreal, full price. Other pairs followed — the turquoise suede pair whose blue rivals Caribbean seas, snappy faux-crocodile prints, shaggy fools gold… but they were all…
