Long and loose
Not for the 5'1 gals. I looked like I was headed to the Republican National Convention, and pardon me if that's your jam, but that is not a good thing for me.

Just okay
It looked fine but not great. Length is nice for shorter gals, though.

Pretty but awkward slip
As others have mentioned, the slip comes below the actual line of the dress. It just doesn't look quite right.

still long for petite
Or I'm too short. But as a 5'1 girlie, I still had to wear tall heels with these.

Tight but very cute
I might try it again one size up for comfort, but I felt super cute and put together in this.

Lovely but quite cropped
I really liked this shirt but ended up not wearing it. It's very cropped and also kinda flowy at the base, so it was hard to find something it went well with.

Great for short gals
I've read that others found this ran short--but if you're a 5'1 gal like me, it'll be the perfect length for you. Loved that it was classy while being a little sexy too.

I am still getting compliments on this dress weeks after wearing it. It's a great one--very tempted to keep it.

Very Cute, not super functional
The top came open while I was doing a video podcast :-/ lol. Not super secure.

Absolute Banger
I wore this to my book release party and felt so great in it. Boob tape is a must, and the waist on this one is unforgiving. I'd say it's true to size--but with no room for error. Had to wear with heels or it would drag, but this dress sorta screams for heels, so that was no problem.

Lovely sweater, a bit of bulk in the shoulders
Thick sweaters can be a challenge on my short frame. I sized down on this one and liked it but didn't love it.

Gorgeous gown - Very fairy princess vibes
I loved this. I'm on the short side and definitely needed heels to keep it from dragging on the ground, but the dress was perfect.
