I love Sea NY and this was another great one!
Boxy fit, but nice if worn with something with a close silhouette. Always the best quality from SNY.

Not flattering on me. I didn't feel like real clothes. Just like a cloth.

Hmm... pretty see through and one leg is a couple inches shorter than the other.
I used boob tape to make a temporary hem and even out the leg lengths. Just a heads up - these are very long. I'm 5'9" and they only worked with platform sandals.

Easy for my ski crew to spot me on the slopes
This jacket has all the right pockets, a lift ticket pocket on the arm, an attached goggles cleaner, inside pockets, etc. the hood fits over a ski helmet perfectly. The neck comes high when zipped, but isn't too snug on your throat, so you don't need a neck warmer. I took it out all season and we had some pretty cold days, single digit wind chills, and I was fine. Love this jacket!

Seriously exquisite.
This is a very fine garment that fits perfectly and feels amazing on. It's hard to describe how it's lightweight and hefty at the same time. I wish I had somewhere fancy to wear it!

Sequin Cropped Boatneck Top

Comically small waist and a huge tush
So they're like a size 18 in the rump and about an 8-10 in the waist. If you're built like this, then you're in luck. But I ain't!

Excellent fit if you size up one size
Fun jumper that is flattering and comfy. It is very much a statement, so hard to wear more than once.

Elegant everyday piece, good for a smaller chest
I love the cut, color and fabric. It’s very well made and holds its structure when worn. The large buttons are a nice detail. I wore it open over a white t, since it wouldn’t close around my chest.

A bit frumpy
I love Marine Layer and know they run large. But this style was very bulky with the elastic waist and the way the layers of fabric gathered there. It was okay, but not flattering on me.

Excellent eveyrday dress for warm weather
This is an easy wear, has pockets, great cut for most frames. I would have bought it, but my standard size (the size I rented) was too big. I'm keeping an eye out for the next size down to free up.

This is a nice statement shirt for resort or summer wear. I only wore it once because it is so distinct.

Perfect length and great way to accentuate my shoulders
This dress was a huge hit with my husband - I bought it! It emphasizes all the best parts of my build. The longer skirt with a high waist accentuates my leg length. The neckline accents my shoulders and decolage. So lovely!

Sweet but not for me
The fabric is kind of granny. It's a cute cut but it sat weird on me. The cut out is awkward.

Doesn't keep circular shape, kind of lopsided
This was much smaller than I hoped, it's a mini bag. It also doesn't stay I. The cute circular shape. It slants to the side and looks like just a regular mini bag.

Nice quality, very broad in the shoulders
It stuck out too far from my body at the shoulder, so it seemed odd. I have a larger frame, but narrow shoulders.

I thought this might be frumpy, but it is not at all. I wore it almost every day on winter break, open as a cosy layer.

Amazing fit. Very rock and roll.
I wore this to a heavy metal show and got a ton of compliments because I wasn't wearing just black. It's very rock 'n' roll and very cool. It's an excellent very flattering fit, snug on the waist with a good bit of volume in the chest, but not too swimming there.
