Review: Origami Couture Skirt

6, Nov 2009

Origami Couture Skirt ($26.00)
Rating: Trendy for now… and spring… and maybe next fall but certainly not a classic
Fit: If you’re worried about adding more volume to your bottom half then don’t even bother with this one. But if you have some wiggle room, then this is definitely a more interesting option than the usual full [...]

Review: Scalloped Fringe Dress

20, Oct 2009

Scalloped Fringe Dress ($24.80)
Rating: Trendy for Now
Fit: It’s a shapeless shift, but it works. The hem is short enough to show off your legs and it’s not like those flappers in the ‘20s had defined waists anyway.
Versatility: You can wear a fringe dress more than you’d think. The most obvious is at night with [...]

Review: Exposed Zip Jacket

29, Sep 2009

Exposed Zip Jacket ($38.00)
Rating: Trendy For Now
Fit: Why do I like this? I’ve spent all afternoon pondering what it means to my identity that I like this. I am someone who dresses like a old lady and not a 24-year-old and then spends the rest of my day wondering if my 42-year-old self will [...]

Review: Bellhop Knit Blazer

29, Sep 2009

Bellhop Knit Blazer ($22.80)
Rating: Trendy For Now
Fit: I had no idea this was called a Bellhop Blazer. That kind of makes me irrationally hate it which is unfortunate considering how cute it is. It’s trendy, it’s cheap and it nips right at waist to make it superflattering. Given the difficult time I have finding stuff [...]

Review: Faux Leather Skort

28, Sep 2009

Faux Leather Skort ($17.80)
Rating: Trendy for Now
Fit: I cracked up when I tried this on. I don’t think I’ve seen a skort since the early ’90s! But the skirt is so short that I was thrilled there were itty-bitty shorts underneath. On the hangers this was my least fave, but it fit the best because [...]

Review: Belted Sweater Dress

28, Sep 2009

Belted Sweater Dress ($34.00)
Rating: Trendy For Now

Fit: Remember in my Satin Woven Tunic review, I mentioned this is a store for teenagers (duh)? Well, this sweater dress is another example of this. No one over the age of 18 should really wear a dress that’s banded at the bottom like so. It’s just going [...]

Review: Leopard Combo Dress

18, Sep 2009

Leopard Combo Dress ($24.80)
Rating: Trendy for Now
Fit: I hated this dress at first. The bottom half looked fab, especially if I had Spanx underneath, but the patterned top cut off my neck, making me look like I was wearing a dress four sizes too small. We then tried pulling the neckline down on each side, [...]

Review: Zip Front Leopard Skirt

11, Sep 2009

Zip Front Leopard Skirt ($29.00)
Rating: Trendy For Now
Fit: I surprisingly loved this skirt. It doesn’t seem too much like my sort of thing, but I kinda wanted to buy it after trying it on–the colors and leopard print (something I usually HATE) are just so captivating. The only weird thing about it is F21’s insistence [...]

Review: Native Silk Dress

10, Sep 2009

Native Silk Dress ($39.00)
Rating: Trendy For Now
Fit: I think about going back and buying this dress every time Sydne and I are doing research. I guess the only thing holding me back is the kinda (by F21 standards) hefty price tag. This blog ain’t paying the billz, you know. Now, what makes this dress [...]

Review: Fab Ankle Skinny Jean

5, Sep 2009

Fab Ankle Skinny Jean ($12.50)
Rating: Trendy for Now
Fit: I think Jen was getting annoyed in the dressing room because I couldn’t stop raving about these jeans. I have a pair of Charley 5.0’s denim leggings and these fit exactly the same—and they’re way cheaper. I wish I had never splurged!
Versatility: You can wear denim leggings [...]
