Collarless Tweed Jacket
Aldomartins
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 5"

Sizing a bit off
When finding a fit in the waist, the shoulders were too wide. Just not right for me.

Flattering bustline and waist. Very comfortable.

Bubble Sleeve Button Down Collared Shirt
CeCe
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14

Awkward
Fabric was thick and didn't rest on any part of the body in a flattering way.

Lavigne Jacket
Veronica Beard
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 5"

A bit itchy
True to size. I liked the neck detail. A bit itchy so plan a camisole.

Crofter Eco-Lakiat Pullover
Lauren Ralph Lauren
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 5"

A bit short waisted. Style would make a bigger impact in a different color.

Layered Ruffle Cardigan

Cross Cinched Collared Top
Lauren Ralph Lauren
Size Worn: 14
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 180lbs
Shows better in person
Modest but actually cuter in person. The embroidery detail is nicer than you think. Could wear with a strapless bra and didn't need shapewear. You're gonna need someone to zip/unzip you. The overlay restricts your arms a bit to get the full length of the zipper.

Floral Mesh Cocktail Dress
Marchesa Notte
Size Worn: 16
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 180lbs
Boxy but cute
Since it was a whimsical design, I actually liked the boxiness. Lots of compliments.

Giada Sweater
Staud
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 180lbs
Lovely fabric, odd fit
Nice weight to fabric and interesting print. But fit was odd. It was boxy and short-waisted, but shoulder seams were set very far. So some elements seemed oversized while others didn't. Just didn't work for me.

Caroline Double Tie Top

Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 5"

Long and a bit oversized
Of course was seeking a relaxed fit for a linen pant, but this pair is a bit more oversized beyond that. Weird that there were cargo pockets but neither front nor back pockets. Also quite long for me at 5'5"

Size down
TTS if you want a blousy look. But size down for neater/closer fit.

Usual Size: 14

Beware the slit
It's not obvious in the photos....or even when you first put it on...but the leg slit is quite high and limited it to one casual wear. Waist band small.

Cute for spring
Very cute print and cut. Waist was a wee bit small for me, but wearable. Very distinctive and recognizable print; otherwise I would have probably worn it multiple times.

Asymmetric Pleated Midi Skirt
PLAN C x RTR
Size Worn: 14
Usual Size: 14

Sizing or cut is weird?
Cute print and fabric that resists wrinkling. Really wanted to like it but the top was very low cut. I'm not even blessed in that department, so I was trying to imagine who could wear this.....Perhaps someone tall or just very long-waisted.

Blue Abstract Rosen Dress
Hutch
Size Worn: L

So cute!
I wore it 3 times in two weeks. Easy to dress up or down. Sometimes I feel like a shirtdress wears me, rather than the other way around, and this one was great. Neckline was perfect and waist detail and pockets gave it extra flair. I'll probably regret not buying it.

Boxy
Wanted to like it but was boxy and arms were too long. The fabric and design didn't really allow for pushing up the sleeves and overall it just didn't work for me.

Generous fit around sweaters. A bit longer than I would have liked but I can tolerate that small detail in favor of flexible fit, great color, great fabric.
