Buttery leather, short-arms
Gorgeous leather jacket. The color is a stunning rich navy. The leather feels so soft. It was very comfortable. It fit me well in the shoulders but the arms are SHORT. Like 2" shorter than they should be, and i'm not a very tall person!

A fun, loud shirt for a casual event
I liked this shirt a lot. It's definitely got a little gender bending vibes to it - but is cut well for a woman's body. My husband said you remind me of Amyleigh Gemstone but i felt more like a 90's skaterboi maybe? It was a fun combination of loud colors and a pop print. I wore with jeans and a leather jacket. It would be hard, but not impossible, to dress this shirt up.

Frumpy and Poochy
I have rarely felt so frumpy in a dress. I put it on and it made my normally small mom pooch even poochier. Like the fabric drapes over your belly just so so that it looks like you're hanging a curtain from the curtain rod that is your belly. Un. flattering. I did not wear.

Got tons of compliments on this skirt which worked with heels and sneakers alike! I wore with a coral top and it paired well. Warning, it's not black, it's like a deep deep navy and black looks weird with it.

Perfect Spring cocktail attire dress
Loved this dress. It was flattering and the print was subtle but funky. Would have looked better with neutral or contrasting colored shoes. Material has just a touch of sheen so it looks fancy and expensive.

Heavyweight summer pants?
These pants are an oxymoron. Their summery print makes me want to wear them on an Mediterranean holiday. And the heavyweight fabric feels like upholstery made into pants. Between the print and the heaviness of the pants, it's giving modern Von Trapp family play clothes. Also, runs small and high waisted means up to your rib cage.

Real Tradwives of Jersey
I couldn't have hated this dress more. The colors were blah. The sleeves were poofy yet floppy at the same time. The print was tackier in person than appeared on screen. And the length was unflattering. It made my bust look nonexistent and overall just was so unflattering.

Great print, stretchy and comfy!
Loved this dress. It was stretchy, comfortable, and the mixed print was great! It definitely shows off your waistline and if you're straight up and down like i am with a little pooch, it's a bit tough, but I still wore it. Paired with a sweater for camoflauge.

Great dress, zipper collar a tad weird
Got so many great comments on the print of this dress! This is Farm 2 Rio lite, meaning the print is eye catching but not so bold you feel like you stick out. Material is super thin and lightweight, I wore to a rooftop event in Phoenix as dusk turned to night, it was perfect for a light chill in the air. My two negative comments are that the zipper neckline is sort of awkward and oddly casual, and that the midsection shows all your lumps, rolls and bumps. It's a pooch shower for sure!

Gorgeous dress for a work event
LOVED this dress. Wish i'd taken a photo in it. The recommended sizing was a tad snug at my waist and around my shoulders, but I wore a compression tank and made it work. A size up would have been perfect. Pairs well with heels, booties, or high boots and tights. Received lots of compliments.

Neon Clueless Cropped Blazer
This blazer is giving Cher Horowitz all the way. Wore with wide leg black pants and a white top, but unfortunately it was a little big on me (def runs big), so the crop was a little more at-the-upper-hip than waist. And the green color is NEON. A lot of people commented on it, but i think it's partially because it's such a bold statement piece. Size down to embrace your 90's teen queen.

SUPER shiny and easy to wear
This shirt shines bright like a diamond! Loved it's look - very festive. Wore to a holiday lunch and got a lot of compliments. But, it's INCREDIBLY itchy/uncomfortable and sheds like whoa. I left a trail of glitter behind me everywhere i went and it was a pain to vacuum up all over my small apartment.

Super flattering show stopper
I loved everything about this jumpsuit - the pants fit in all the right places and the top was flowy but didn't create unflattering bulk. The only thing I'll note is that the silver material is more matte IRL compared to the shininess portrayed in the RTR photos.

Deep V sparkly jumpsuit, very comfortable
Jumpsuit was easy to wear and so comfortable, VERY low cut, so i wore a cami underneath. The one place it lacked comfort was the sleeves, the sequins were itchy. I didn't wear it as I expected to for a high profile event because it made me feel thick in the middle. Note - the bottom sequins are like a midnight blue, not black.

Felt like a romantic spring garden in this ruffly number. Perfect for weddings, showers, or even high tea! Beware that the front is low and the back is low, so regular bras are a no go. I had to go braless, which I hate.

very flattering dress for the figure, but you gotta *love* the puffy sleeve look and be comfy wearing fabric that looks like Grandma's drapes. It's cool in that way, but it's a lewk.

Cute, casual, wrinkles easily
This was a cute dress for a work event at a resort. But, i had to iron the everloving stuff out of it to get it to look good. So i'd say it's packability factor is 0. The print is cute and eye catching, the fit was very flattering.

Material is very weird, can't wear a bra
I don't even know what to say about this dress. The fabric feels thing and stiff at the same time, the armline/neckline is ridiculous - can't wear a bra, but the fit would generally work for a curvy girl. Not sure who they tailored this dress for, but it wasn't me.

Did not like this at all. Might look good on a waify girl wearing it braless, but it just made me look frumpy and disheveled. My husband's exact words were: Please no.

Sexy and luxe and very low cut!
Got so many compliments on this jumpsuit! The color is a rich olive and the velvet is so nice. The cut was okay, a little high waisted for my body, but the tie really cinches in nicely. it did create a little "pooching" effect underneath though. The V is LOW. I had to pin it and use wardrobe tape all night. I think for girls who can comfortably go braless, this would be a stunner. Girls who can't (like me), think about how you will adapt it. Note: Wardrobe tape on your bust + a jumpsuit is not a match made in heaven in the bathroom.

Not super flattering
I thought the geometric pattern would be waist defining, but this dress fits tiiiiiiiight - so it just looked sort of warbled and weird around my middle. I am straight and narrow but with a little mom pooch, and it did nothing for my figure. Didn't wear it. The color was blah, and the cut felt matronly. Might be nice if you need something conservative but a touch dressy, and you are more pear shaped or curvy.

Great fit n' flare dress
This dress was very flattering! V neck is lower than i thought, but it was not egregious, just know that there will be cleavage. The color is a bit darker than the photos portray, not a bright green. I sized up to the 6 because the waist was riding up too high in the 4, and made is less flattering. The 4 zipped just fine, but the proportions weren't quite right. If you have a long torso, size up. I'm average in this regard.
