Super cute, versatile purse
Loved this purse so much I bought it. Not too big, not too small, perfect for a formal occasion but also can be worn for date night.

Perfect for a Winter Vacation
This coat was way lighter than expected, given its length, and easy to layer under. Perfect for a winter vacation in Baltimore when the forecast called for snow!

Cute and warm!
I loved this sweater. It fit true to size, with a slightly cropped length and puff sleeves for interest. I would have kept it longer if I lived somewhere cold enough to wear more frequently.

Cute with high waist skirts/pants
I wasn't expecting the material to be sparkly (my fault, the description clearly says lurex!), which also gave it a different feel than I was expecting (stiffer than pure jersey). That said, it was a cute evening piece to pair with a high waist skirt or pants and I wore it multiple times over a vacation to Mexico City Oaxaca. I don't think I would recommend it for day (unless daytime sparkle is your vibe), but it's great for evening. It can be tricky to wear with some bras, but I made it work.

Perfect birthday dress!
I wanted something fun and coloful but not too dressy for my 40th birthday daytime plans (Sunday market in Oaxaca) and this dress was perfect. I wore it with toms but you could easily dress it up with heels or sandals for a variety of events (brunch, garden party, summer wedding, etc). You could also wear the sleeves on or off the shoulder. I loved it so much that I've kept it for another month to get at least one more brunch or date night in before the weather turns cold.

Versatile transitional layer
Love this jacket! I ordered it for a trip to Mexico City and Oaxaca in September (ie transitional weather) and wore it so much that I never wore my own jacket/sweaters that I had packed as a backup! I ended up keeping it beyond my initial month rental because it's a such a great piece for transitional weather. I sized up based on previous reviews, which was definitely the right decision!

Such a gorgeous dress!
I wore this dress for my 40th birthday dinner and loved it so much. I was looking for something special that emphasized my assets and smoothed over my problem bits and this was perfect. As I was in Oaxaca (where nighttime lows were in the low 60s) and dinner was on a rooftop, I also wanted something with long sleeves. The deep neckline was flattering on my girls and the waistband could be adjusted up or down for more or less coverage on the cutouts. The waist/skirt definitely ran large, so you may want to size down. I have thick arms, so I'm not sure that I could take a smaller size, but it was a little big on bottom (and I'm bottom heavy). But the elastic waistband helped minimize any issues. Loved this so much and highly recommend for a dressy event in transitional weather (spring/fall).

Way too large!
My normal size is L/XL (more XL than L) but the XL was waaaaaay too big! It was practically falling off my shoulders, to the point where I couldn't wear it. This one stayed in my suitcase the entire trip.

Great dress! I wore this to a friend's wedding and got lots of compliments. Due to my shape, it was tighter on the bottom than on top, but thanks to the tulip shape it wasn't too tight and was very flattering. Great for pear shapes. Would definitely rent it again!
