Cute, but buttons are odd
This dress is cute, but wearer beware - when you sit down, the buttons beneath the bust tend to gape. It isn't even that the dress was too tight, but for some reason there was a gap there when sitting. I got a lot of compliments on the fabric and the colors!

Pretty dress - not for the curvy
This is a beautiful dress. When I first put it on, I thought it fit well enough, although it was a bit tight across the hips. Warning! The slit in the back is *very* high. As a curvier person, the slit unfortunately made the dress almost indecent! This dress will really only work on someone with a slim/straight figure.

Cute, but very warm
This sweater is cute, but be warned - it's much warmer than it looks online. The arms also run short.

Beautiful dress, tight in chest
This is a beautiful dress, but busty ladies be warned - this dress is probably best for ladies with a C cup or smaller. I was able to fit in it, but it was tight and the seams didn't fall across the bust quite right.

Very cute, but *very* short
This dress is very cute, but it is *very* short. I couldn't wear it because it looked like a tunic on me! If you are taller than 5'7, this is not the dress for you. It otherwise fit TTS!

Perfect dress for a wedding guest!
I wore this dress to a friend's wedding and received so many compliments! It has a built-in bra, which is fantastic, although you will probably need someone to fasten it for you.

Beautiful cardigan, but heavier than it looks
This is a beautiful cardigan, but be warned - it's heavier than it looks. I rented it as a spring/transitional piece, and it was much thicker and heavier than I anticipated. As a result, I only wore it once.

Really cute, but not for long torsos
I loved this top, but be warned - it's not for tall people and/or those with long torsos. It is not exactly cropped, but close to it. I wore it with high-rise jeans, and even then I wound up having some stomach show - which is not how it's supposed to look! The print is absolutely adorable, though.

Unflattering 90s mom look
I was so disappointed in this dress that I didn't even wear it. The base color is a very pale pink that washed me out. The dress also runs quite large. Maybe if you are very young and want to look like Elaine Benes from Seinfeld, this dress would work for you. Otherwise, you'll probably feel like you pulled something from your mom's closet 30 years ago!
