Different in a Good Way
I haven't worn this out yet, but I tried it on. True to size, but if you are busty like me (DD+) consider sizing up for more room in the bust. I think its going to be fun to wear, but the closures are with hook clasps on the inner edge of the coat and they are starting to pull off (especially at the bust line) - also, it doesn't seem to close all the way down. Though I believe this to be a warm coat, because of these issues I'm thinking it will be fun to wear but maybe not the most practical thing on a cold day.

Really nice knit, boxy shape. I thought the color was blue but its more purple. Consider sizing down on this one, its generous.

Fabulous Skirt!
I wasn't super excited to get this one, I had a small fear it would be dowdy. This skirt is SO cute in real life! Beautiful pleats, it is super flowy and is super flattering! Black, White and Grey with a touch of Peach. Such a treat to wear. Very lightweight so probably not for really cold weather - a 3 season skirt

Gorgeous and Warm
I got it a bit big so I can get layers under it and its great. I love the textures, its beautifully made and there is a touch of red going through the plaid which gives it interest. Takes a casual style and definitely brings it up a couple notches.

I liked the dress - it has nice details. Boy oh boy is it huge though. Try a size or even two down. I got it to wear to the beach, but it was so big I left it at home.

Pretty, Comfy
I ended up wearing this dress a good bit. It fit me thorough the bust, but overall the dress is big, and the sleeves were a tad long for me. My man called it a Mu-Mu, but I felt pretty and comfortable in it and it kept me cool in the hot weather. It is lined, so no see thrus. I recommend it overall.

Fabulous Coat
A bit oversized for me, a bit long for me, not as weighty as Id like it to be, and the sewing around the cuff is coming undone - but - I LOVE THIS COAT. Its really good looking and warm enough. Get it if you like a coat that is functional but also makes a statement.

Nice weight, soft. Sadly I couldn't wear it because it had a small hole on the front that had been repaired, but once I saw it I knew I couldn't not see it, so I sent it back. If it had no previous damage I think I would have enjoyed wearing it.

I love Vince, and I really wanted this to work. Its very "cocoon" shaped and its very short! I'm short, so be prepared if you are taller than I am. If it wasn't for the length I probably would have kept it, it seems warm and the fit overall was nice.

Perfect Coat for Everyday
Love the weight, obviously beautifully made. I love having color in the winter instead of black and this coat is very colorful but has sophistication with the color blocking and the contrast leather trim. Upon closer inspection, the buttons are dark green - at first read they look black. Terrific coat.

Fun and yes - BIG
Ive been wanting to try these for a while - they definitely take up space! Comfortable enough, fun to wear, but they do pinch after a while - I think the first time I wore them I lasted 2 hours, the 2nd time 4 or 5 hours before I had to take them off. Received compliments on them, and they are beautiful - absolutely earrings you most likely want to rent, not buy. Give them a go!

Small!
This dress is beautiful, may fit slim figures best. For busty hourglasses like me (size four, 34E), or if you have a wider back, consider at least a size up, possibly 2. (I sized up one and I couldn't zip it up past mid back) Will try again.

Really Pretty
I received this as a replacement item for another necklace I ordered. Honestly, it wasn't the statement I was looking for, but this is the kind of necklace that is very beautiful if you look closely at it to take in the details. Like many of the Oscar pieces, this necklace is a bit heavy, but once on, you forget about it. In perfect condition, beautiful colors, luster and sheen.

Great Casual Choice
I really like this shirtdress, its cute - I like the high low hem, the silk is great on a hot day, even if it does need pressing. Very casual, I wouldn't get this for the office. It also is pretty short when you sit. I'm bustier (34DDD), and the buttons gape a bit, but nothing a bit of tape cant fix if it bothers you. Great choice for summer.

Nothing Fancy but Easy Choice
Definitely size down. This is a soft shirt that is a bit low cut - I wore a tank under and it was fine. Arrives a bit wrinkled but mine hung out overnight and that worked. Not a knockout, but that good combination of casual yet pulled together, and comfortable.

I Hate Pants but I Love These
Runs a bit big overall, but I'm not sure if the size down would be too small initially. After wearing a while, while comfortable to begin with, I think they eased up some and it made me want to try a size down. Super cute, easy fit, very flattering, looks great with a sleeveless crop. Ankle length for my short stack self, but they look fine to me. These are a great alternative if you are normally a skirt person!

So Pretty!
The short sleeved CC dresses are so great for a curvy girl like me. I was so glad to get this one, its has a gorgeous print and colors. I had to pull it down occasionally, and it was a bit hot on a 90 degree day, but if you are inside for the most part this is a terrific choice.

Definitely Different!
I like this brand, its edgy and modern, and it can be a bit risky to wear some of the items. I wanted to try the jumpsuit because I figured it would either be great or....not. The fabric and pattern is cool - I am busty (34DDD) and wore a racerback bra with it and it didn't show anywhere. The length was fine too (I'm about 5'4"). What was off was the cut/fit. The top fit fine, but it flares out at the hip and I couldn't get it to sit in a way that I was comfortable with. I almost think a size down might fit better, but I'm not sure. Sent it back without wearing it out of the house, I may try it again later.
