Very flattering fun dress for work
I sized up from a 6 to an 8. Usually 6 is my size, but based on reviews that this runs small I grabbed an 8. The 8 fit perfectly. Loved the material on this dress. It is a tad on the short side for a conservative workplace but wasn't too bad, especially with tights. I would have bought it to keep if it were less expensive.

It's nice
The details are what make it unique, but I would not say others would notice that.

Bright, fun top
I enjoyed the bright color and puff shoulders on this top. But be warned that the back had a large open cutout that is bra- revealing. I normally avoid any bra reveals, but this one skimmed just below the top of my bra back so I decided to go for it. I also wore a faux shearling vest over it, so it was not a big deal. The fit is tight, but stretchy. It was snug over my larger bust so it was bodycon in style in me. I didn't mind with the vest for some coverage.

These are HIGH-WATERS!
Don't be fooled by the website pics--these pants fall at ankle length. They still look okay, but I usually wouldn't choose ankle length for my conservative workplace. I managed to make it work. These run small but are stretchy, almost like leggings, but with sturdier material. I sized up from my usual 6 in pants to an 8, so they fit snuggly but not uncomfortably. They are flattering in fit accounting for the size up. I liked them, but would've preferred they be full length as shown in the model pictures.

This is GREEN.
I thought it was black but it's actually a very dark Hunter green color. I like it in this color and it went with the tan pants I rented, but I think the website photos are misleading on the color. As others said, it is tight and runs smallish. It is stretchy though. On my larger bust, it made for a "scuba/bodycon" style fit. It worked under my blazer, but I might have felt a little self conscious without it. Not necessarily for everyone.

Versatile leather-look jacket
I wore this over a weekend, and it went with everything. I appreciated that the buttons and zippers are all black, so you can wear it with gold or silver. I will say that it did not have the most flattering look when zippered. But it looked so nice when wearing it open that I didn't want to bother with zipping it up. Not warm. More of a fashion piece.

I sent it back
The shape of this was unflattering on a fuller bust
