So fun + flattering!
Totally my style and I had a great time wearing this! It fit me wonderfully, and the material had plenty of give for shimmying on the dance floor. I lifted it a little for getting lower while dancing and taking longer strides while walking, but overall felt the fit didn't restrict my movement. Loved this dress!

Great everyday bag!
This bag is deceptively simple and surprised me with how much I love it. It's cute and petite yet holds more than you'd think. And it balances weight really well: feels great in hand. Holding on to it for the whole month. Finding I prefer to use it w/o strap (hand held or over my forearm), but the strap is great for over-shoulder or cross-body when you know you can't spare a hand/arm for this. Holds two cell phones (work, personal), lip stick, small snacks, keys, small wallet, gloves, mask... really it packs in nicely!

Stately, best for older age
Beautifully made and super cozy. I thought I could style this to be fun on me (37yo), but it immediately looked like it belonged on someone much older. Sure enough, my mom (76yo, white hair) came to town and wore this out one night: it looked great on her!

Pointless
Sorry to say this, but I didn't see any real point in this bag! It wasn't that cute or small for being a purse, nor large enough to tote anything of meaning. Mostly, I was disappointed the straps were darker and more matte than I hoped for (not gold + black look; truly a muted somewhat dirty-looking gold), so it didn't pop and seem all that cute.

Playful puffy
I loved this puffy with its angled button opening and pinstripe details (and lots of compliments on exactly those). I wore it most cold days, dressing up my everyday casual look. The collar is nice and high for a particularly cold moment. Granted, cold for me is San Francisco 45-55 degrees. Did not put this to the test in real cold weather. M was great for me: room for a sweater or even a light leather jacket underneath. It's bulky/oversized and cropped, which all together read as cute on me.

Beautiful, playful, confident comfort
Draped on me perfectly for being form flattering (like a sheath dress) and allowing all movement (walking, sitting, eating, dancing). The ruffles are such a fun detail for enhancing the party vibe. Not too low cut (I don't like showing much boob). Wore without a bra, and maybe should have tried taping down a little but it worked! Wasn't 100% confident I could bounce and dance hard but also that was fine! ... Perfect for my event: black tie optional wedding in the PHX desert with extended family

Cute collar + contrast
Cozy, strong patterned oversize sweater. It's massive and I'm enjoying swimming in it for WFH life. It's perfect for Zooming. I wanted the oversize component though I think this might be too boxy/giant for me to feel great actually wearing it out of the house (covers my bottom! I'm long-legged, short-torso'd, so perhaps not an issue for someone with longer torso).

Darling
Darling bag made me smile and gave me a little pep as I used it around the house and out on errands for a few days. Ultimately, it was delivered without the crossbody strap, so I was able to return/swap it out. Though it leans spring/summer, the color was just lovely and didn't feel out of place as a sort of light "mint" for sunny So Cal "winter".

Fun, plush + warm
Intentionally oversize, intentionally playful w/ different colors. In this low key COVID/WFH holiday season, I don't get out much, but was able to wear the coat to a 3rd wave coffee shop and chic natural grocery and the 20-35yo men (3 in total) at both locations immediately showered me (my coat) in compliments. I hadn't been sure if it was too large, but it didn't matter. It was fun all-around + so warm. I'm in LA, so just threw it over a t-shirt and transformed my outfit and cut any (minor) weather chill in a flash.

WFH/COVID holiday life in LA
I'd size up for the more comfortable loungewear fit other users described. In a 4, for me the waistband was substantial, taut, and the legs slim, so it made for a nice trim look great for standing -- but not a slouchy or relaxed comfort for lounging in. I'm perhaps on the border between a 4 and 6 and wish I'd gone for 6, instead of the 4 the website suggested. Otherwise, warm and soft material, likely great in a windy or cool place.
