I loved the black puff sleeve cropped blouse on you, I think it looked fantastic on you! Effortless but chic, with a bit of edge.
Love your style.. are the last blazer’s pocket actually of use or are they show pockets?
I thought those jeans looked amazing on you, very flattering on the bum if you don’t mind me saying. Great thorough haul overall.
Hey! Could you share your measurements? (hip/waist/bust)?
Great pieces! Sunglasses really suit you ❤️& Other stories jeans are really good. I had couple of pairs from last year in keeper cut and favorite cut style. Amazing quality and style. I think you will love them ❤️
Nice items and you always keep up with the latest trends. My favorite were the dress and shorts.
No apologizes Mrs Jamie for most of your wardrobe being black because that's what works for you or the only items available, we understand.
I bought my first cashmere sweaters from Macy’s (house brand) last year and I was so disappointed. I washed them on the cold, delicate cycle, dried flat, but they all shrank a full size. I didn’t know about cashmere grading then, and will only buy Grade A cashmere from now on, these obviously weren’t. The “full retail” price was 50% more than Everlane or Grana, but they immediately went to half-price, this should have warned me. I will pass them on to my Mom, who’s a bit smaller and always cold. It hurt to lose so much money, though. Should I expect shrinkage and size up in future cashmere purchases? These should have been generously sized for me, according to the size chart, and were fine before washing.
I picked up the cat eye sunnies a few months ago! They are a perfect winter update for my rayban original wayfarers which I have worn for about 7 years now 😎 love the blazer. Good point about the returns price. Ordering smaller items makes it almost pointless to do a return.
A little off-topic: why would Shoptagr rename themselves to Karma? Karma is the thing that comes after you after you maxed your credit card shopping for clothes, not the thing that aids you in it.
Love this video! I recently did my first order from this brand and am very happy with my chunky cotton knit cardi. I wish they had a store somewhere in Australia 😀
As I own quite a few &other stories pieces, I think I finally have a good idea what size to get. If the item description reads oversized/loose fit I normally size down once or twice. For the rigid jeans I have to go up 1 size, in the stretchier jeans my normal size works. In more fitted pieces my normal size works. Now I am off to look at that black dress you showed 😍
Thanks a lot!!! Those shorts are great and fit you like glove! Love the brand i have a great wool scarf in burgundy colour from there , which i wear daily in winter, adding a pop of color to my mostly black outfits and also keeping me warm. Have you tried their bags? I have my eye on their croc embossed leather shoulder bag. Thanks again for the video and the reviews. Wishing you a lovely week 🧡.
P.S the sunglass suit you so well
That kind of wide crop top works great on me because I’m so short waisted. If I recall I think you are long waisted so it makes sense you don’t care for it.
Regarding the lack of model photos on Stories website, I have found that at times there are model photos but when items go on sale they remove the model photos. Isn't that interesting? I'm certain of this because I have stalked items until they go on sale and have seen those model photos taken down. Sometimes the model-less photos make the clothes look more universally appealing but the down side is that it eliminates perspective. Oh well. I love their customer service, though.
who knew & other stories and arket were H&M brands?!? 🤯
The shorts and the sunglasses are fabulous!
Hi Jamie! This is great. Really enjoyed the talk through. LOVE the sunglasses on you! And I now admittedly love polka dots, stripes, and flouncy skirts and dresses! 🙈 Thank you for influencing my style over the years! I first love them on you, then timidly dare to try, and then become a big fan. Big hugs and hope you are doing very well! No more daycare bugs please! 🥰🌺
How am I just finding your channel?! Your style and recommendations are so "me". New sub!
Both & other stories and Arket have the worst online websites. Theses companies do nothing to help the customer to assess the sizes, fit, fall of the garment. Both have the worst visuals and pics. Horrible and turns me off from purchasing from these companies. Worst is that the premium you pay for & other stories and Arket clothes you would think they would have a much better website. Not sure how they can claim any purchase is “sustainable” when high probability that an item is returned…with more shipping involved.
