Stylist Review!
This gown is a true stunner. The shimmering fabric makes it the perfect standout piece at any black-tie event. It is, however, very stretchy so I recommend sizing down for the full effect. The sheer panel along the top is takes away the need for a necklace and the side slit also adds a nice touch. Bring out your best strappy heels or go for a classic pointy pump!

Cocktail dress with a twist! This piece by Elizabeth and James is the perfect blend of cocktail and edgy. Running on the smaller side, I definitely suggest sizing up for your backup. The fabric is fitted throughout, but has some stretch to it and can be worn with a standard bra (always a plus!). The navy color leaves room for creativity with accessory and shoe choices. Perfect for dinner and drinks with friends!

Stylist Review!
This is by far one of my favorite new arrivals! The dress has some stretch to it and felt like it was tailored to fit me. The orange lace details with hints of pink can be paired well with nude strappy heels and this style can be taken from midday brunch to dinner date with a simple change in accessories. It is knee length on me, so for anyone under 5'6" it will fit more like a midi. Overall very comfortable, and super cute!

Stylist Review!
The lace on this gown gives it a really gorgeous feminine look. The lilac color is so great for Spring and early-Summer events (helloooo, Prom!) The side cutouts are very subtle and make for a fun detail. The style is fitted throughout, but it has some stretch to it. Like most Nicole Miller pieces, you can go for your usual size with this!

Another great bodycon dress by Elizabeth and James! The Blush Aiala Dress has a bit of stretch to it, but I definitely suggest sizing up for comfort. The side cutout is a playful detail that is still very much appropriate for dinner. I'm 5'8" and this hit me about mid-thigh. Pair it with a fun statement necklace and strappy heels. Can't wear to rent this for a night out!

Stylist Review
This blazer is super special because it can also double as a dress! The silk lapels and buttons add a very chic touch to a classic piece. It runs pretty true to size, but it is pretty fitted in the bust and arms. Depending on what you plan to wear underneath, you may need to size up for your backup.

This vest is equal parts edgy and chic. The cut makes this a super versatile piece that can be worn as an addition to your outfit, or the star of the show. It runs true to size, however, I recommend sizing up if you have a larger bust since the fabric has no stretch. Feel free to match this with your favorite biker boots or killer stilettos!

Super chic and great for bringing playful prints to the office! Though the S fit very well, I could've definitely gone down to an XS for a more tailored look. This style is very comfortable throughout and can easily be dressed up or down.

Super cute spin on the traditional button up. This can be dressed up with slacks or dressed down with skinnys. The fit is a bit large, so be sure to size down for your backup.

The stretchy fabric of this blazer was a pleasant surprise! I suggest sizing up because the sleeves were a bit short, however, I loved the style and paired with a a simple black tee and skinnys. It is quite a statement piece!

The color of this cape is a great spin on a classic piece. Like most fall staples, this can be worn to work or to a dinner party with friends. Even at 5'8", the sleeves were a perfect length so I suggest sizing down for your backup.

I absolutely loved the fit and color of this blazer. The fit leaves comfortable room for layering (hello Fall!) and it is very lightweight. If you prefer more of a boyfriend fit, you can easily achieve it by sizing up. Pair this with your favorite scarf and ankle boots for the perfect transition from day to night!
