Faux Leather, Cool Concept
This was a cool concept in theory, I love the stitching and length, but the lining would NOT stay still and it gave it a bulkier look.

Varsity Chic
Loved this. It's pretty cropped, but a soft and easily styled knit. More sweater than sweatshirt. I love the embroidery, it makes its feel upscale.

Blanket Jacket
This was true to size, I likely could have gotten an L for a more fitted look. Truly obsessed though, it's double lined and warm, goes with so many things. I got compliments every time wore it.

This was a great WARM sweater that was perfect for hanging around in. I also paired it with a more formal skirt and wore it to work.

Great light jacket
I wore this a ton of times, its not a thick puffer and is great for more milder temperatures. The color is so pretty and the buttons stay secure even though they are snaps! Wore it for the super bowl parade. Go Birds. :)

Beautiful, but clingy in cold weather!
This skirt is gorgeous! The fit was nice and it has great movement, but due to the silk fabric it literally was stuck to my legs constantly due to static.

Really pretty, thin fabric!
This wasn't what I expected, but I'd very pretty. Has pockets! Almost a kind of western vibe on the cut and pattern. Static was crazy and I was constantly adjusting.

Great staple! 70s vibes
This was a little stretched out, but I loved it! Reminded me of something Donna would wear from that 70s show!

Great staple!
This is the perfect winter blazer. It's a soft wool, almost fleece like. I wore it with long skirts and wide leg trousers to work. It has a more boyfriend fit.

Simple Work Top
This was a nice top, fit is on the flowier side, and it's kind of soft in texture. I didn't like that it was super charged with static from the moment I took it out of the package, and I felt like I was pulling it away from me the entire day.

Unique and perfect!
I work in the Arts and normally don't wear louder colors, but I was obsessed with this dress. It's heavyweight and falls so nicely. Soft in texture, and keeps its shape throughout the day. I ended up buying it as I know I'll continue to wear and style this one as much as I can!

Beautiful
This skirt was the coolest. It's a heavier material and is perfect for Fall/Winter. Doesn't wrinkle or lose it's shape. I received so many compliments when wearing it and I kind of regret not keeping it.

Beautiful Sweater, great statement piece
I love how understated, yet unique this sweater was. Every time I wore it to work, everyone wanted me to buy it. Super fun to wear with slacks, or a long skirt, it has a great silhouette.

Cute transitional piece!
I wore this to work with the matching skirt, and also casually with jeans and it was great. The ties are so cute, and you can adjust the waist if you are looking for a tighter fit. When it got cooler out, I wore it with a white long sleeve underneath and it was perf.

Couldn't have gotten better compliments!
This is a heavy weight dress, with almost scuba-like fabric. If you are an hourglass or pear like myself, it will fit in ALL the right places, glides over curves. The off the shoulder style is super comfortable and the bright cobalt color was a great choice for my event. I am typically a 10/12 in dresses and the 46R fit me perfectly. (I was swimming in the 48L). I do suggest both a strapless bra and shapewear for this dress, every though it's heavy, any type of line shows because of the bright color.

Dramatic neckline and gorgeous color!
Wore this dress for New Years!Absolutely gorgeous. My only dilemma was the slip underneath...way too small. I have a small upper body and a pear shaped lower half. The medium fit my upper body perfectly, the large didn't work. Honestly I just hiked the slip up and wore spanx underneath. I got so many compliments on the color. It's a thicker fabric so it even worked in the cold. Best part...pockets.

Unique! And pockets!!!
This dress ran really large on me, I am pear shaped so I was expecting it to be loose, but not that loose! I added a waist belt and was good to go. Many compliments, the high low is beautiful and the pockets are the perfect extra detail.

Super soft and fits everything!
Was a lot bigger than expected! Not in a bad way, fits a wallet, sunglasses and whatever else you normally carry during the day (lip gloss, compact, etc.). It's the softest material and has a totally comfortable strap to carry as a side bag.

Kept me cool in NYC!
The elastic around the shoulders is as what is expected, can't lift your arms up all the way, but it does stay in place all day long. I wore this while hopping around NYC on a 98 degree weekend...the sleeves weren't too hot and it's not fitted in the bodice, so it wasn't too constricting. I personally love this look, took me from day to night easily! Definitely need a good strapless bra...in a light color. There is a light lining underneath the lace, but nude is necessary! Although, my one (and only) complaint was that the shirt smelled a little when I received it! May have just been from the bag, but it almost smelled like it hadn't been cleaned.

This was perfect for a summer wedding! I was comfortable all night!
Is not a soft cotton like it appears, but still gorgeous and comfortable. I thought for sure I'd be a large, but there's a good amount of space in the bottom half of the dress so I was a Medium. If you have a tush this will flatter and not add bulk. Tall girls...this will even be long on you! It came to about mid-calf for me. The elastic at the shoulders and waist was comfortable and not tight. I'm smaller busted and the ruffle flattered and did not overwhelm. Seriously I was getting compliments on my neck all night! The cut was a hit and I was the only one wearing this type of dress! I added on the Pink DVB clutch and a pair of drop earrings, wore with nude lace-up heels.

Great Little LBD!
Definitely ran large on the top for me. I have decently large shoulders but this dress was loose for me in the waist and in the bust. And I'm typically a much larger dress size because of my lower body, so I was surprised at how loose it was. It is a gorgeous dress and the back detail in the skirt is so flowy and fun! It's a thicker fabric than you'd expect from the picture, but it hangs really well. Make sure you open ahead of time to check for wrinkles. I had a large one near the seam in the back that I had to end up hiding with a cardigan because I didn't have time to fix it.

This is a fantastic dress!! Sparkles and shines in every light.
Super flattering for a formal event. I wore it for an Orchestra Gala and received compliments all night. If you are an inverted triangle and are larger on the bottom than I would suggest trying a size up, it was tight on me in the booty, but not to where it was uncomfortable. The cut of the dress is timeless and gorgeous. The sequins aren't too heavy either. Just the right amount of sparkle if you want to stand out but not look too flashy.
