Weird arms
I wanted to love this top, it's a great color and fabric, and the bell sleeves are fashionable but not too big. I found the cut to be strange. The shoulders/arms/back were plenty roomy, but every time I raised my arms the shoulders shifted. I didn't like that the whole shirt shifted when my arms moved so I didn't even wear it once. The fabric is pretty heavy, btw.

Short!
Holy wedgie. It was small all over, but esp in the length. I went back and ordered the large and it fit size wise but was STILL too short. Not for ladies over 5/7".

No. Just no.
No no no no no. The sleeves are WAAAAY to puffy. I looked like a football player wearing this shirt. The bottom is as described in other reviews - it's small, so unless you have a straight figure it will be too tight. The V at the neck was way too low. Just bad all around, really. I so wanted to like it.

Best for curvy women
I'm straight figured with a bit of a belly, this was a no go on me. The sleeve length, the V at the neck were all perfect, but it just hugged my muffin top a bit too much. It's a very heavy shirt, I think best on smaller busted women with small waists.

Nothing special
I thought the split/flare hem would be more dramatic, was not in love with the line of these pants at all. Fit well, had a nice high waist and not too tight (I'm not tiny in the waist by any stretch) but nothing super special. Didn't love the fabric, sent back without wearing.

Great top
This top was very flattering- had high slits on the side so I wore a high-waisted pant with it so that I didn't show skin- fun arms and overall fit very well. the fabric was heavier than I expected but I appreciated that cuz it covered a lot of flaws. I liked it but didn't end up buying it, but for the price it's a great steal.

Great top!
I love this top. It's so comfortable, bust minimizing appropriate for work yet really fun print. Highly considering buying this one.

This is a great light fluid blazer.
It is true to size. It's very short in the back, luckily I work somewhere fairly casual so could wear it with my shirt that I wore underneath untucked, on 5'8" or up it may be too shirt in back. Very very comfortable!

I didn't notice it had white satin buttons on the sleeves and silvery thread running through the jacket making it fine for evening but not for work. The wool was rough and scratch, so it's weird to have something a bit more formal made out of that fabric. Totally unsuitable. I usually wear an 8 jacket, got a 10 and it fit correctly.

I hated the fabric. It clung to my stomach and was very unflattering. More see through than I expected in a heavy fabric like it. The shoulders were weird, but the length was nice. The sleeve length, however, was too long, and the cuffs wouldn't stay folded back.

Just OK. The arms are way too long. The sweater is very heavy, cute, but too big to wear.

I didn't notice how long the arms are - so it's unwearable as is, maybe sizing down would help, but I doubt it. It's very boxy also, not unflatteringly so, but...
