Black Mesh Skirt Review





Hello! Hope you're having a lovely day. Today I'm back with another review from SheIn! I'll be reviewing this long mesh skirt. Buying long skirts online seems so nice in theory when I'm trying to be more adventurous with my style. That's only because I tend to forget that I am so tragically short that any supposedly mid-calve length skirt will look like a poofy prom dress on me.  Sometimes you gotta be like "idgaf" and wear that prom skirt outside in 90 degree weather, though, you feel? FASHION.

  • Waist Size(cm):56-86cm
  • Size Available:one-size
  • Length(cm):86cm
  • Fabric:Fabric has no stretch
  • Season:Fall
  • Pattern Type:Plain
  • Silhouette:Flared
  • Dresses Length:Knee Length
  • Color:Black
  • Material:Polyester
  • Style:Casual/Formal, depends on styling



This skirt has a polyester inner skirt that is covered by two layers of pleated mesh fabric. The outer mesh layers are translucent and extend past the inner skirt by 14 centimeters. The waistband is elastic and stretchy, but tight.



I like how the skirt has a double layer of mesh since mesh is very flimsy and tears easily. Dust and lint get stuck easily in this kind of fabric. I would recommend hand-washing over machine wash.

I had originally wanted to use this skirt for casual wear, but as the length goes past my ankles, I'm afraid I'm not brave enough to pull this off in public (yet). On my body type it looks like formal wear, but I'm sure that on other people, this could be a very versatile item used for both casual and formal wear. When paired with a simple white tee and a leather jacket, this skirt could create some killer streetwear looks. Alternatively, pairing it with a blingy crop top can create a chic prom ensemble.

I think the buyer gets a good, high-quality item for the price (21.99USD). Thanks to SheIn for sending me this item! Click on their logo to start shopping!  You can find this mesh skirt here on their website.

Black Sleeveless Shift Review


Thanks everyone for the well wishes on my last post! I'm happy to say that I've recently committed to my dream college where I'll start school in August :) I'm excited to start this new adventure in my life and I'll make sure to keep you guys posted!

In other news I became obsessed with the musical Hamilton last week and I've done everything I could to become more obsessed short of actually seeing it performed on Broadway. I have the Spotify album on repeat and it's basically all that I listen to now. Please gush over it with me if you're a fan!!

Anyway, onto the review-


Today I'll be reviewing this Black Turtleneck Sleeveless Dress sent to me by SheIn. I'm trying a new format for my pictures- let me know what you think!


DESCRIPTION

  • Fabric :Fabric has some stretch
  • Season :Summer
  • Type :Tunic
  • Pattern Type :Plain
  • Sleeve Length :Sleeveless
  • Color :Black
  • Dresses Length :Short
  • Style :Basic
  • Material :Polyester
  • Neckline :Round Neck
  • Silhouette :Shift
  • Shoulder(cm) :S:33.5cm,M:34.5cm,L:35.5cm,XL:36.5cm
  • Bust(cm) :S:86cm,M:90cm,L:94cm,XL:98cm
  • Length(cm) :S:84cm,M:86cm,L:88cm,XL:92cm
  • Size Available :S,M,L,XL


This dress is a light shift that zips from the back. For comparison purposes, I'm 5ft and wearing a size S.




The simplicity of this dress lends itself well to layering. The material is high quality and feels silky. Regardless of the paradox of a sleeveless turtleneck, I think this is an interesting style. I got this because I'm liking the minimalist style a lot lately (read: I'm getting more lazy). The LBD is a staple that I was lacking so I'm glad I chose this- I can see this being worn at formal events or parties. It can be matched with a simple necklace to spruce it up a little.

This dress looks exactly like the picture advertised on the website. It's simple and versatile and high quality for its price.

White Faux Fur Coat Review

Hey guys! I'm still alive! 

Apologies for the four month long absence. I took a break from blogging to focus on my college applications, and now I'm quietly existing in that second semester senior phase between apps and acceptance. Everyone is saying that this is the perfect time to slack off school and enjoy life, but I just can't bring myself to not care about school (lol). I'm doing the enjoying life part very well though; this week I visited an art museum with some friends and saw a performance of A Chorus Line at my school! And next week is my senior class trip to Disney, which I'm very excited about.

Anyway, enough about me; today's post is a review on this White Long Sleeve Faux Fur Coat from SheIn.




  • Sleeve Length :Long Sleeve
  • Pattern Type :Plain
  • Type :Coats
  • Color :White
  • Material :Polyester
  • Collar :Collarless
  • Length(cm) :XS:82cm,S:83cm,M:84cm,L:85cm
  • Sleeve Length(cm) :XS:58cm,S:59cm,M:60cm,L:61cm
  • Bust(cm) :XS:84cm,S:88cm,M:92cm,L:96cm
  • Size available :XS,S,M,L
  • Style :Casual
  • Placket :Zipper
  • Season :Autumn
  • Length :Long



This coat is made out of soft white faux fur and has beige lining with glossy black buttons trimmed with gold. For comparison purposes, I'm 5' and wearing a size XS.


I get so many compliments when I wear this coat! It really is a statement piece. The material is very thick but the buttons cinch at the waist so the entire chest area is exposed. The one qualm I have with this piece is that the buttons are not secure enough; when I tried to button it two of the buttons fell off. The coat still suits winter well if you use a thick scarf to cover up so you don't catch cold! Of course, I'm thinking in terms of New Jersey winter chilliness so if you are lucky enough to live in an area where it's always sunny you don't need to worry about that. 

I would match this with a turtleneck and skater skirt paired with thick leggings and boots. This coat is a lovely piece for layering in winter! You don't need to compromise comfort with style with this piece.

This coat is ideal for layering over a formal outfit in the chilly months and for styling a cute winter outfit. It's a pity about the buttons.

SheIn Review: Beige Long Sleeve Casual Loose Pockets Coat


Today I'll be reviewing this Beige Long Sleeve Casual Loose Pockets Coat from SheIn! SheIn is a store my readers are probably familiar with; for those who don't know, SheIn is an online fashion store that sells women's clothing and accessories at affordable prices.

* Although this is a sponsored review, all of my opinions expressed her are my own honest views!

  • Pattern Type :Plain
  • Type :Coats
  • Color :Beige
  • Material :Polyester
  • Collar :Collar
  • Bust(cm) :XS:90cm,S:94cm,M:100cm,L:104cm,XL:108cm,XXL:112cm
  • Shoulder(cm) :XS:60.5cm,S:62.5cm,M:64.5cm,L:66.5cm,XL:68.5cm,XXL:70.5cm
  • Size available :XS,S,M,L,XL,XXL
  • Length(cm) :XS:83cm,S:84cm,M:85cm,L:86cm,XL:87cm,XXL:88cm
  • Sleeve Length(cm) :XS:39cm,S:40cm,M:41cm,L:42cm,XL:43cm,XXL:44cm
  • Style :Casual
  • Season :Autumn
  • Length :Short








I was surprised at how thin the material is since the picture on the website makes the coat look rather thick. It says that the 'Season' for this coat is Autumn, but if Autumn where you live is even a little chilly, this coat will not provide warmth at all. Really don't get this coat if you're expecting any warmth out of it! It would be more apt to say the season for this coat is Spring or Summer.

I was also disappointed at the fake pockets  Websites should really indicate somewhere if the pockets are fake or not!

Besides all of the hullabaloo about thinness and fake-pocket-ness, I think this coat is really rather cute. It looks like a cross between a stylish trench coat and a cardigan! The lapels give it an air of sophistication, and you can really choose to dress it up or down, making it a versatile garment. To dress it up, I would wear a nice white dress with statement jewelry. To dress it down, I would wear it with a simple t-shirt and a skirt. This creamy color is also very soft and pretty!






Pros:
- pretty color
- versatile
- cute style
- decent price ($19.99)

Cons:
- material is too thin for Autumn
- fake pockets

Rating: 7.5/10

♔ SheIn Review: Blue Hooded Long Sleeve Drawstring Denim Outerwear ♔


Happy September! Today I'll be reviewing a popular apparel from SheIn that is perfect for the upcoming autumn weather ^^ Also perfect for extremely chilly classrooms because the AC at my school is always set to the highest level for some reason; I'm pretty sure I caught a cold from it...


The apparel I received was this Blue Hooded Long Sleeve Drawstring Denim Outerwear ! This is the image on the website: 

It looks like the hoodie and denim jacket are connected but they are actually two separate jackets. 


back:


hoodie:


The denim jacket has long sleeves and the grey hoodie is like a hoodie-vest with no sleeves; the hoodie is actually a lot longer than the denim jacket so the two jackets look a bit awkward when worn together.


Both jackets are decent quality! They are both pretty light jackets; the hoodie doesn't do much in terms of warmth but it's very soft and comfortable. The denim jacket is surprisingly warm for its thin material. Some close-ups:



The pockets are at an uncomfortable position so you can't really leave your hands in there... but they are pretty roomy so you can store stuff there lol.

Rating: 9/10; I am really satisfied with this apparel but I took off one point because of the size difference of the two jackets. Overall this is one of my best experiences receiving items from SheIn!
