Ruche offers a variety of clothing, shoes and accessories in all different sizes as well. They have tops, bottoms, dresses, heels, bags, statement necklaces, you name it, they have it. They put new items up on their websites every week. Yes, I am a little obsessed with that site, well maybe more than a little to know that they do update every week. Not only does their clothing and accessories have a vintage touch to it, but their website itself is amazing. I can't even go into detail how much I love the layout and the background and basically everything about the design of their website.
If you can't already tell, I am in love with this website. I ordered three dresses from them and received my items three days later. Talk about outstanding shipping considering the fact that this is a shop located in California and I am from the Midwest. Most of my online purchases normally take between a week to two to get to me, but this one, yea, this one totally beats them all. That was a plus for me. Each individual product/clothing were wrapped and sealed in a clear fitted bag and then wrapped again with tan wrapping paper along with their shop logo sticker.
For reference, I am 5'3" and 115 lbs. I know, I'm a shortie but here are some photos of the three dresses that I bought:
(FYI, all these dresses were purchased with my own money and all links provided are for your own reference. All pictures on blog are my own. For better photos, click links to be directed to see more views of the dress[es].)
Go the Distance Dress Available in Red and Mint, Size Small, $48.99. More pictures on the website.
You can find it here.
What I love most about this red skater dress is the back detailing. It is different due to the unique crisscross bow silhouette. You can probably sneak by wearing a regular bra (like I did) but I would recommend a low back bra to prevent any peek-a-boos. Another thing that makes me love this dress even more is the elastic waistband. You know what that means! It means I can probably sneak by eating more than usual without having to worry that my dress is too tight! I can imagine wearing this dress on a girls' night out or to a dinner date with my significant other. I would probably pair this up with a pair of neutral heels, either black or nude, along with some dainty accessories and I'm good to go(
Pursuit of Dreams Ruffle Dress (bottom right), Size small, $44.99.
The dress is available here.
This peach chiffon dress is a must have for summer. It's lightweight and manageable especially in those hot summer days. The surplice neckline along with the simple ruffle detailing gives the dress a elegant appearance. The elastic waistband is also a plus like I mentioned before. A brown belt can be optional if one wants to add a pop of color. I would definitely pair this dress with either wedges or neutral pumps and add a simple statement necklace and earrings to finish the look.
Trieste Seafront Belted Dress- Belt included (left), Size Small, $48.99. The dress is available here.
First off, can we just spare a few seconds and admire the amazing print on this dress. I don't even know where to start. The boat neckline, pattern, belt, length. When I saw this dress, I just had to get it like it was meant for me. The cloth is a little stiff but it's not a big of a deal and it is still comfortable enough to move around. This piece is more fitted than the first two that I've shown above but it seems to be the most versatile to me. I can see myself wearing this to a business meeting, a wedding, anniversary party or even a dinner date. The dress itself looks very sophisticated and mature as for the belt, it helps accentuate the waistline to reveal my feminine curves. I am in love with this dress...well, practically all the dresses that I purchased and the store itself. :)
The pros:
- Offer variety of clothing in all sizes
- Fast shipping
- Website design is incredible
- Modern style with vintage touch is a plus
- Fits true to size
The cons:
- More on the pricey side
- Not many discounts
But overall, my experience with Ruche was amazing and I will continue to purchase more of their items in the near future...or maybe tomorrow. :) I highly recommend everyone to go check them out if they haven't already.
