Shiny silver, not grey
From the photos, I expected a grey blazer for work. It is more like woven Christmas tensil. Would work better as an overcoat for a party. Too much for work

Love it! Great for work
Scuba like material. Fun twist to a simple black and white. Not too short. I am busty, and the fabric allows for that.

Unable to zip without assistance
Very beautiful dress, but the zipper was awful. It was a struggle even being out of the dress, but literally impossible inside the dress. The zipper was marked in a fashion that indicated I was not the first to experience this. Couldnt get it zipped, so I didnt get to wear it.

Not for the busty
The fabric is great quality. White with a navy stitching. Though there is a zipper to get in and out of, this isnt designed for those with a larger bust. I could not get the zipper up in that area. Im sure this would be great on a smaller frame.

I Love this, but...
This sweater is everything I thought it would be. It is amazing quality, and a great fit. However, I was surprised this was a RTR piece that was not commented on, as usual. I think this is a perfect additional for a fall/winter wardrobe.

Not for the larger bust
Didnt wear, because I could not zip once I got to the chest. I could see how this would be really cute for a more average sized person.

Great winter work dress
There is a zipper along the side, so having a larger bust with a smaller waste works well with this design. I wore with black knee high boots to give it some youth. It was great

Unexpectedly high side slits
The sleeves were a little short for me. The quality is great, material comfortable. I wore this with high wasted pants, and you can still see some skin.

Beautiful to!
I have a large bust. Though the fabric had some "spandex" feel too it, it was still too snug around the chest. Other than than, I absolutely loved this top. Wonderful color, great design. This isnt too fitted if you have problem areas.

LOVED this coat! Nashville trip and Holiday Party
I wore this two completely different ways, and loved it completely. I was wearing a LBD and wore this into and out of a holiday party. That was only because I loved it so much, I wanted to wear it before my vacation to Nashville, which was perfect also. Compliments galore

Great Design, Not as Vibrant as the picture
I thought this dress was great. I was on vacation in Cancun, with multiple diners out. The color wasnt as bright as it appears in the photo, but I still loved the dress. It runs a little snug. I wore a 12, which I usually wear a 10, and I needed help getting zipped in. I do have a large bust. That was the major problem area, but a little tighter than usual for me.

Love it! But the back is ALL sheer
This is a great top. The only thing I would be aware of, I expected the sleeves to be shoulders to be sheer, but the entire back is sheer. I have long hair, and wore a black bra anyway, but something to be aware of. Really Cute. Fits as you would expect based on the models photo

So Cute, but Runs REALLY Small
I normally wear a medium or large coat. I got this in a large, and felt like a 10 pound loaf trying to fit into a 5 pound bag. The design is fantastic. You could see that this ran small, because the cape overlay conceals the tightness in the arms, but it was literally too snug to even attempt to wear. I wouldn't have been able to move my arms. Size up!

Felt like Inspector Gadget, not in a good way
I didnt wear this coat. I wanted to love it, and wear with my new Burberry scarf, but it just looked awful on. The fabric is very thick, and would likely keep you warm or dry...but not a flattering trench, in my opinion.

This dress was adorable. I rented for a vacation to Nashville, but it was far too cold to wear. The color is great for fall.

Weekend in Nashville PERFECT!
I rented this for a vacation to Nashville in the cold month of December. The entire jacket is small sequins, but they aren't super shiny sequins, so it's not overkill. The pattern was perfect. And John Elway seemed to like it too! The shoulders were a little larger than typical on me. If you have long hair, my biggest issue was my hair getting caught in the sequins on the back of the coat.

A relaxed fit with extra flare
This time of year, its cold. I wore this with boots and leggings, but think it would have looked better with black nylons. It looked more like an oversized shirt when wearing it with leggings. I think that made it lose some of the appeal i loved about the unique cut. Wrinkles very easy

Beautiful color, Short if you are busty
I loved the color, but the front was much shorter than I expected. I do have a large bust, so that could cause it to be shorter on me than it would be on someone with a smaller chest. I wore with black skinny jeans that had blue stitching. I found myself pulling on the front all night so that I wasnt accidentally exposing my naval region.

Cute, good quality
Rented this as part of my outfits for a trip to Cancun. I couldnt get the back zipped up. It does run small, but even with that, the zipper was an incredibly struggle, even off my body.

Cute cut, not as vibrant as the photo
I rented this for my trip to Cancun. The photo looks brighter than it was in person. It seemed a little more like faded jeans. Thick, quality fabric. Runs just a little small. Tough to zip up if you're large busted.

Cutest romper ever!
Rompers rarely fit well for my body. They either ride up on the lower part, or they dont close on the top. This fit great! I wore with black nylons and boots. Adorable!

I didnt end up wearing it.
This was the shortest dress I can remember putting on. I typically dont mind a shorter dress because I have nice legs. I love the quality, print and the style, but this runs both small (couldnt get the back zipped) and incredibly short.
