Allergy-prone types, use caution!
I started sneezing as soon as I put this on :( - loved the look for a ski weekend but couldn't wear it (made of part angora which is probably the culprit!)

Easy to spot and so many compliments!
Usually a size 4/6 but only 8 was available, which worked with all my layers underneath for skiing. My friends found me easily on the slopes and it was fun to standout!

Perfect for honeymoon!
I loved this two piece- shorts were a bit big in the waist so it didn't quite have that flattering high waist cut but it worked and the pattern and event were so fun, I didn't mind. Also- pockets!

Loved this two piece!
Perfect for a honeymoon luau in Hawaii! The top and bottom ran a bit big and you can't wear a bra but it was fine with pasties. Lots of compliments and very fun to wear!

Cozy fall jacket!
Love the 90s vibe of this jacket, super comfortable and oversized to go over even a heavy sweater. I ended up buying it!

Perfect for warm fall days - once it got cooler, was hard to fit a sweater underneath as it was a little tight in the shoulders. Did not want to return!

Fun birthday dress!
Loved this dress, wore it for my winter birthday with black tights and boots. It's super comfortable and easy to dance in, but it is low cut so I couldn't wear a bra but it worked fine with stick ons.

Wore this for a winter birthday and got a ton of compliments, the coat is made well and actually warm! Pockets are an added bonus.

An update for the LBD!
The 6R fit perfectly although you can't wear a regular bra but with pasties and some tape, the dress stayed put and I wasn't worried about a wardrobe malfunction. Lots of compliments and I felt great in this dress!

Fun color and flattering fit!
I wore this for my graduation party and loved the comfortable fabric, fun colors and flattering fit. I ended up wearing the size 6 (I'm normally a size 4 or 6) for some added comfort and since I ditched my spanx almost immediately on the hot summer day, the extra room made me feel more comfortable.

Great for a fall wedding!
This was my backup dress but I ended up wearing it - I loved the color and it was a cooler day so the heavy fabric was great for the outdoor portion of the wedding but not too heavy that I couldn't dance the rest of the night! It also has pockets which is a huge plus! Fit true to size and I could wear a regular bra under it (there are hooks under the straps to keep your bra in place) and it definitely gave a lot of support. Lots of compliments all night and I felt great in it!

Perfect for a wedding in the Italian countryside!
The material was stretchier than I imagined but that made it more comfortable to dance in. I ended up wearing the bigger size mainly because the smaller one looked a little more ragged and worn but also, again, for some extra room to dance. The off the shoulder didn't constrict my ability to move around like I thought it would either. I received so many compliments and felt like a million bucks!

Loved the color and uniqueness of the dress!
Overall, the dress was gorgeous and I received so many compliments throughout the night! Length: I ordered the 2L and 4R as there was so 4L available the day of my event. I'm 5'8" and the 4R was at my ankles when I put heels on and was even short with flats. I wore the 2L which was a little long with heels (the underlining was perfect, the overlay was long kind of like a train) so I had to hold that up while dancing but it wasn't a big deal. Bust: I'm a C and was a little worried about the no bra but with some double sided tape, it was perfectly fine. The 2 was tight enough that it kept everything together and I didn't have to worry about any wardrobe malfunctions. I'm normally a 4 so I would recommend sizing down as the 4 was a little to baggy in the chest.

Received so many compliments!
This dress made me feel stunning and it was perfectly appropriate for a slightly chilly, black tie optional wedding. It was comfortable (able to wear regular bra and underwear!) and very fun to dance in. I did have to use some fashion tape between my bra and one side because when I leaned over, you would have been able to see my bra. The 2L was the perfect length with low heels and only slightly tight around the middle and arms but it didn't restrict my eating or dancing at all. (I thought I had ordered the 4L as well but something went awry and I only received the 2L so luckily it fit and I actually think the 4L would have been too big despite that being my normal size).
