Sweater dress, more for a a casual outing than night to shine
This dress is cute. The fabric is a bit thinner so it doesn't lay as smooth, or pop as much as you might think when viewing online. Wore for a date night to the theatre so given the low lighting and late hour, it did pretty well. However, if you're looking for a statement piece of sorts, this isn't your go to.

Super cute, yet super short
This dress was fun and added a nice addition to my long row of LDBs. From the photos online, I thought it was a bit longer so dressed down a bit to better fit for the environment of the day - museum gathering.

Work day to date night - piece of cake!
Great sweat and super versatile! Works well with just about any color or pattern on the bottom you can truly mix and match for plenty of options.

Let Derby season begin!!
This dress was SO comfortable and fit just right!! Was outside the full day for horse race and tailgate. Used a colorful scarf as ruana instead of a jacket and the dress did the rest.

Casual and comfortable
These were nice and pretty comfortable overall. Wore for a work conference and transitioned well from workday sessions to after hours networking. A bit warm so would recommend for fall and winter in general. However, given how cold most conference facilities are, these still worked well given that I wasn't outside until the darker/cooler part of the day.

Great choice for a special event that requires time both front stage and backstage
Selected this piece for an orchestra concert where I was volunteering, which meant a long night! This dress converted very well between flats and heels to give a consist look of "amazing without a sweat." I got compliments all night and the dress was so comfortable I kept forgetting that I had this on. Also, the silhouette and sleeves provide enough of a statement that you don't have to worry much about jewelry or accessories as it truly speaks for itself :)

Plenty of compliments at the annual conference! Alert - runs SMALL so plan accordingly....
I knew I would love the sweater! So much so, that I actually ended up ordering it twice. The first time I ordered in an extra small and could barely move my arms. The second time that I ordered, it was manageable but still pretty tight. I may try it again in a size large, but I usually wear a size XS, 0, or 2 so keep that in mind. Overall the sweater was very warm and comfortable, especially for the all day conference environment I was in. The color scheme makes it very flexible as well.

Really comfy but not recommended for pear shapes!
This one was a bit tricky! When I first saw the fabric, thought I struck out....but when I put it on and felt how warm and comfortable it was, I quickly changed my mind. Had an informal group gathering so it worked well, but only after pinning the shoulders up since the top was literally hanging halfway down my arms. Then added shawl to hide pins. The bottom fit was pretty perfect, but as a pear shape, didn't work so well up top. However, for lounging around the house, it works pretty well.

So comfortable for a full evening out! Symphony, walked to dinner, and finished with game night!
This dress was very comfortable and traveled well. Went out of town and ended up not wearing but between shipment, packing and unpacking, remained wrinkle free which is a HUGE bonus for people like me that hate to iron. :) The only thing that would make me love it more would be an invisible zipper on the side. This dress is pretty form fitting, so you MUST put on deodorant after pulling the dress tightly over your head. A zipper would also help with special hairstyles that need to hold firmly.

Light as a feather and uber comfortable! Wore on my birthday and worked well for both festivities and travel. Also, please note I am typically a size 2 in US clothing and the correct size for me was 8R in this dress. #birthday

Fun and comfortable dress for a long day out and about!
So...... first please notice I am wearing flats with this dress! I initially planned heels but with dinner, a date at the museum, night stroll and rooftop plans - had no desire to be uncomfortable! This dress got tons of compliments and struck the right balance between sexy, sassy and fun - even in flats!! #birthday
