The last of my June purchases have finally arrived. I added a lil bit of everything this month (all workwear):
3 tops
1 jacket
1 skirt
1 sweater
1 pair of sandals
This top

was a bit of a disappointment. The sleeves hit at a weird length, the waist is high, and the belt was not sized up correctly. It took a long time to get my order, considering it said it came from the US. When I contacted the seller about my issue with the belt, they offered to remake it, but I am still waiting to hear back from them.
I got a basic linen top in mustard yellow:

The color is not my favorite, but this is a nicely made top.
I also got a linen top in a clay color that I love:

I wish this shop had more styles, because their colors are nice.
From Sarah Sue Designs I got the waterfall blazer in copper (which I am exchanging for a bigger size), and the Simone triange dress in striped. I was disappointed that the jacket was so tight across the back, and I hope that two sizes upworks for me. I love the dress though. The fabric is nice, and it's super comfortable. I was surprised to find that there is a Sarah Sue Designs etsy shop. The same blazer that I am paying shipping bith ways to exchange, is $20 less and has free shipping to the US. I will be checking there next time.
Another Australian company that I ordered from is Kobomo. I ordered the bamboo tube skirt in black. I already have a black tube skirt, but this is longer, which I liked. I like the fabric and the nice wide soft waistband, but I wish the fabric was more substantial. This shows all my lumps and bumps, so maybe it will be saved for longer tops. I also got the bamboo cocoon cardigan top in black. Really like the fabric, and this is perfect for the office for me. I wish they had more colors.
Last, but not least- I got the Miz Mooz Chasen in Brandy.

The toe strap on these was tight, but I have stretched it out enough that they are now comfortable. I can't wait to wear these to work this week.
