Cover up
It feels like percale, which is great, but it's a bit see-thru, which worked great as a cover up

not for me
This fit but it just wasn't flattering. The ruching on the stomach just adds rolls to my already curvy figure. A dress like this might work better on an a lean, athletic frame. The dress was in fair condition but past it's peak in terms of wear.

Quality pull up pants
These ran too big on me (I'm between sizes), but still wore them around the house or on quick errands because they're great quality and oh so comfy. Even if they fit me well, I would only wear them to gargen in my yard or run errands, because they're pull-on pants after all, they're not here to add sex appeal.

Everyday Jeans
They're actually TTS, or slightly large as they were big on me all over, especially in the rear and hips. I was still able to wear these as very baggy jeans because they draped well. They were too long on me to wear flats, but I made it work a stacked heel shoe.

tight waist
I sized up and had no problem buttoning them up, but they were tight at the waist, hugging, and revealing every curve. If you're smallest at your waist, these might be for you. The length was great for me, giving me a heel or flat option. Best for a night out.

cool, but huge
It's always a gamble when you rent a ballpark size (S, M, L, XL, etc). and I tend to size up, but this time the pants were so large that I couldn't keep them up for a second, I'd say this XL was more of a 1x or even 2x. Very cool, stylish and versatile if you can find your fit.

Love Tanya Taylor. I forgot that this line runs TTS/Large and tall. It was too big for me but I'll size down next time since the oversized look swallows my shorter frame.

Lived-in
This came in NWT but it has a lived-in look. It's nice, but not for me because of my short torso, the straps kept slipping off and it showed a lot of side boob. I didn't care for the lining.

Big on top
Lovely dress, but it didn't work for my measurements. Lengthwise, I was happy with it gracing the top of my ankles, and the fit on the waist was flattering, but sadly, there was too much room in the chest area and I struggled to keep my bra from showing (not an issue I usually run into, quite the opposite.

Quality but not for me
This dress swallowed me. It's a great quality dress, but I looked like a little girl in her mom's muumuu. I've learned that with my height and curves, the loose, oversized look doesn't do me any favors. If you can pull this off, it's a lovely, well made dress.

Lovely, casual fabric and print. Unfortunately it was too big (from everywhere) and too long even with 3 inch wedges. Pass on it if you're under 5'7, and size down if you're between sizes.

It sags
At first, I loved this ever-so-expensive and luxurious sweater. It's timeless and doesn't run too hot or too cold. My only grievance was that it sagged and lost its shape after several wears, so I didn't feel too polished.

Great for Lounging
I rented both the top and bottoms in this set and although I wore the top out, I couldn't bring myself to wear the pants out, even as a set because they look too much like PJs. Well made and comfortable for a weekend lounging around at home.

smol
I'm currently between sizes and thought the XL would work since everyone suggested sizing up, but it was still super tight. It's got very little give. I recommend the XL to a true 12 only if you have an average to small chest size.

The most comfortable denim. I wish the slit were a tad more open to help with movement, but it's otherwise perfect for my shape. Very flattering. Loving this brand.

lounge comfort
Very flattering, featherweight, but they wrinkle too much around the crotch area for me to keep. Long inseam, ideal for taller ladies. Great if you want to lounge and sleep in, but will require dry cleaning or handwashing since they're delicate linen.

It looks great on the model, but it swallowed my small frame. It's just not worth all the steaming and ironing it requires unless you have help.

Weekend Brunch
Cute & Chic for a weekend brunch (if you own a steam iron) It's very short and I'm only 5'4", so I'll avoid wearing this on windy days. Plenty of room in the waist, but you can cinch it with the belt. I do wish the sleeves were longer.

unflattering
I sized up, but it's still ridiculously small for an XXL. Althought it closed fine on me, this was supper unflattering on my frame. I can see it work on a naturally slender or athelic build.

Shrunken piece
The XL was too large for me in the waist, so I rented the L, which was still a bit loose but the tie made it work. Unfortunately, the L was shrunken significantly in the arms and skirt length by about 2 full inches. I'm guessing it was washed and dried at a hot temp.
