SIZING NOTES: I’m 5’5″ and I usually wear a small in tops and dresses, a 29 in jeans, and a size 8 shoe. Gifted items are indicated by c/o; everything else I purchased myself.

Rails Audrina Floral Print Dress

at Nordstrom (S) // 25% off at Bloomingdale’s (S) // Tory Burch sandals (8)

I was drawn to the design of this dress more than the print. I don’t care for small scale florals; they’re too dainty and sweet for my personal style preferences, but I do like the color palette. I thought it might be a nice option for those looking for a wedding guest dress this spring.

This is the small, and I’m sucking everything in to take these photos. I really need the medium, but then it would be waaaay too low-cut. It could probably be taken up in the shoulders, though, which would help alleviate that problem. I love the way it’s got the v-neck in the back, as well.

VERDICT: I sent this back, of course. It’s just not for me, but it’s a lovely dress if it appeals to you. The fabric is thin, and there is no lining, but with some lightweight shaping shorts, I don’t think it would need a slip. It’s very lightweight and breezy and comfortable.

Tory Burch Slingback Espadrille Wedge Sandal

onsale at Saks (8) // 25% off at Tory Burch (8) // KUT from the Kloth Meg (6)

Before I injured my ankle, I ordered a bunch of dressy sandals and slingback pumps with the intention of adding a few to my spring wardrobe. I always find myself in need of dressy black sandals, and I thought these would be a nice option to have. They really are beautiful, and comfortable too. I love the criss-cross straps and slingback design, and I’m always a fan of a wedge heel on sandals.

For some reason, they disappeared from the Nordstrom website, but they’re available on the Tory Burch website, and included in their Spring Event (25% off $200 or 30% off $500.) And there are a few sizes available at Saks, where they’re marked down, but not included in the Friends & Family sale. (TIP: Use code FREESHIP for free shipping over $200 at Saks.) There is also a silver pair at Bloomingdale’s, which is eligible for Power Points.

VERDICT: I still have these in my closet, but I doubt I’ll be wearing any sort of heel this summer, so I’ll probably send them back.

PAIGE Julia Ankle Strap Espadrille Platform Wedge Sandal

at Nordstrom (8) // at Bloomingdale’s (8) // KUT from the Kloth Meg (6)

You may know PAIGE for denim, but she also makes a lovely shoe. (Check out these cork block heel slides!! If I’d seen them before my accident, I would have ordered those, as well.)

Anyway, I thought this pair was really fun for casual looks when I want a sandal that’s a little more leveled-up than flats. I was torn between the Dark Gold and this Cognac color, but I went with the cognac because it seemed a little more casual and I love this shade of beige. (They also come in Bone.)

I loved these as much as I thought I would. As you can see, the straps are a little loose on my low-profile feet, but they aren’t hard to walk in, and I’m not sure I even adjusted the buckle.

VERDICT: I was planning to keep these too, but I decided to send them back since I don’t know if I’ll be able to wear them this season.

Dolce Vita Selda Raffia Slide Sandal

at Nordstrom (7.5) // at Bloomingdale’s (7.5) // KUT from the Kloth Meg (6)

I was excited to see these because they’re super stylish, and they also have a molded footbed for those of us who need a little extra support. Little did I know when I ordered these how much I would need that feature this summer!

The gold makes them slightly more elevated than a Birkenstock, but they’re almost as comfortable. They also come in black and a Natural/ Black Raffia combo, which is really fun.

VERDICT: Kept these, I actually ended up bringing them (well, the left one) with me to Florida, and I’ve been wearing it to the pool and sometimes with an outfit.

Sundry Vacation Tee

at Evereve (M) // KUT from the Kloth Meg (6) // P448 John (39)

VERDICT: I loved this when I saw it on the Evereve website, but in person, it feel a little flat for me. It’s suuuuper soft and comfortable, very nice quality, but the cut of it is kind of boxy and plain. I decided to pass on this one.

Leo Palm Tank

at Evereve (M) // KUT from the Kloth Meg (6) // P448 John (39)

Now, this one, I love! It’s thicker than I was expecting, but I don’t mind it. It’s such a fun subtle print, and it’s got a slightly edgy vibe, just due to the color combo. It’s a nice length for leaving tucked or untucked.

VERDICT: I ordered the small and the medium, and the small is okay, but I thought it might shrink, so I kept the medium.

Splendid Skye T-Shirt in Rossa

at Nordstrom (M) // KUT from the Kloth Meg (6) // P448 John (39)

This tee is rather plain, but it’s very soft and comfortable, and I love the color. (It comes in a bunch of other colors, as well.) The cuffed sleeves are a nice detail, and it has a slightly rounded hemline, but it’s not so dramatic that it bothers me.

VERDICT: I kept this one, but I didn’t bring it to Florida. If I was super excited about it, I would have packed it… so maybe I will end up returning. I don’t know. I think the color will be nice to have.

Treasure & Bond Allover Print Short Sleeve Top

at Evereve (M) // KUT from the Kloth Meg (6) // P448 John (39)

I had this last year in a medallion print that I really loved, so I thought I might like this floral this year. It’s a little precious, but I don’t hate it. I’m not even sure why I’m making that face.

VERDICT: I haven’t returned it, but I still have the tags on, so we’ll see… What say you?
