EATME 2-way one shoulder irregular hem OP, decolette peplum OP, choker design rib top

I was very hesitant to make another order that required Tenso while I still didn't have regular EMS or airmail available, but I just worked a bunch of OT at work and was determined to splurge a bit for the items and also use DHL to ship (and not break the weight threshold for the huge price hike wtf). 

This order was timed with the EATME 6th anniversary campaign. For this week, it was Buy 2, get 10% off or Buy 3, get 20% off. So of course I bought 3 things 😅. All were already a bit on sale to begin with, so I thought it would be a good time to purchase!

I really fell in love with the design of this OP when I first saw it in the initial season preorders. I had initially been very set on the mix color (which is like a beige-ish light check pattern), but after a bit, I began to see the value in the solid color and thought the black was very chic and a bit more versatile! The retail price for this dress is a bit higher than I'm typically comfortable with (when considering having to ship DHL as well), so I was very happy that my preferred color made it to even a minor sale!

Even though this dress was a little pricier, it does come with a choker (cross charm is removable) and the little "vest" (for lack of a better term that I can think of right now) that also somewhat serves as a belt. I really thought I would love the dress best with the little vest, but because the wrap around belt has to be adjusted/sit just right, I think my preference is actually with the cross strap belt! My only other complaint about the dress is that the thin shoulder strap is a little long so it sits a bit awkwardly under the vest as well. If it was adjustable or removable as well, that would be the best. The other full sleeve shoulder holds the dress up really well anyway. Aside from that, I love the length and the slight high-low skirt hemline and I'm happy that I got this on sale.

Decolette peplum OP in mix

I haven't been following EATME for very long, but I can tell that this is one of the OP designs that they must slightly revamp and release every year. It's got that classic contrast collar and sleeve cuff + the garter detail that are so iconic to the brand. This was another OP that I had my eye on immediately from the season preview and have been monitoring for price.

This dress has quite a bit of an OL aesthetic. Too bad I won't be going into the office very often, but I think to wear it more casually, I have to pick certain hairstyles that are less "prim". I do like the color combination and am happy to add another EATME piece to my wardrobe in this palate. I just think it coordinates so easily with solid black shoes/accessories!

Neck choker design ribbed top in green

Unlike the other two dresses in this post, I hadn't been pining for this top for months. It was more something to throw in the cart to get that additional 10% off but also something not too pricey. I did almost get a third OP instead, but after I looked at my existing pieces, I thought it would be more fun to get an item in the seasonal color (this pale green) and add some variety to my blouse collection!

The exact shade of green is a little difficult to capture with my iPhone 7, but it's a really nice pale green irl. I like this top a lot more than I thought I would and the little frill detail is interesting without it being overbearing or too obnoxious. I've never really felt like I can pull off a big/puffy shoulder, so this feels like the right amount of volume for me. The choker detail also fits pretty well (not too long or too short). Overall, I'm happy with this wildcard purchase. 

I have to tell you....I have 2 orders from August that I am desperately waiting to come in via SeaMail and I'm so impatient! They finally reached the US on October 23 and are supposedly in customs, and I'm a bit concerned it might get lost, especially with all the election mail and then the holidays coming up :(.  I can't wait to share them with you so I'm crossing my fingers that I actually get it because it's 8 EATME items from summer that I'm really looking forward to!
