British retailer Reiss is having an incredible sale. Their clothes are sophisticated and modern. They also have a great balance of work, casual and cocktail attire. Here are some of the many pieces that caught my eye and/or my wallet.
Helena Off-the-Shoulder Sweater ($172)
Portland Dusty Blue Dress ($236)
Add this pencil skirt to make a gorgeous dark-plum suit.
This week, I fell mindlessly into my phone more than I think I ever have. My screen time went from 3.5 hours per day to 5 hours per day. But the increased eye strain did lead to some good finds. Just going to leave this right here. (I really need to work on “Didn’t make […]
For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.
Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
I have the Ricca jacket and it is beautiful. I found that the matching trousers were a better choice than the skirt, which had strange seaming on the hips. The Reiss sales associate agreed! Also, a word to those unfamiliar with Reiss sizing: I usually size up one size in dresses and bottoms, but take my normal size in tops. The cut is slim and straight, much like other European brands.
I have been eyeing a few things, but when I went and looked, the prices on the sale items were the same as they have been for quite some time. Is there a coupon for this incredible sale or something? What am I missing?
I haven’t looked at Reiss in a while, so maybe the sale is just new to me?
That shall neck jacket! File under things I need!
Oh man, that off-the-shoulder sweater looks so great to snuggle on the couch in. Too bad I’d be the only one to see it, so it wouldn’t really be worth spending that much.
I love this shawl neck jacket. Any suggestions for a similar plus size version (or at least one that goes past UK size 10)?
I love the look of Reiss, but sizing is super hard. They only go up to UK size 14 in most items (US size 10), and the cut isn’t the best for curves. So, even if I am generally a size 10, I can’t wear many of their dresses. I loved their white coat this season, but it just didn’t fit in the bust. Very disappointing.
