Loved this top - good with jeans or with a skirt.
Really lovely.

I didn't end up wearing this because I thought it might be more work-appropriate. Not really.
It is a little more clingy than it looks -- so it fit, but the open collar was less drapey than pictured.

Wore this over a black tie dress to a wedding.
This is a great statement piece. Make sure to wear it with slim-fitting clothes underneath, otherwise it gets pretty bulky.

Fun wedding.
This dress was perfect - form-fitting, but flattering - for a black tie wedding in NYC. It is darker than it appears in the photos, and works well during the fall with a cool moto jacket over it. Well worth renting!!

Good for work.
I thought this was really flattering - a little short, but with tights it worked.

I loved this. It was comfortable, but unusual, so it received a lot of compliments.
Perfect with jeans. I ordered a size up so it was a little boxy, but that was the look I was going for.

I went to an all white pop-up dinner, so this was a good unusual option for the event.
The dress is VERY sheer and the underskirt (sort of like a slip) is very short. Be prepared to wear a white tank top underneath this dress if you are wearing it to any event where visible bra is not appropriate. Very slouchy on the top and I found the shoulders sort of moved around, which was perfect for me, but may not be ideal for every event.

Wore to a rustic outdoor wedding. A little heavy, but just the right side of formal.
Long and very lined, so a little heavy if you're planning to dance and jump around a bit. But a really awesome skirt to dress up and down depending on the occasion.

I wore this twice -- once to work with a sweater on top and once out to dinner. Apropos for both!
A little short in the ankles for tall girls, so I recommend planning to wear it with a cute pair of flats.

Work is not unforgettable, but wearing an outfit everyone loves is.
Very springy - loved it. Got lots of compliments on it too!

Diner en Blanc NYC 2014.
This dress was perfect for a summer party when I had to come directly from work. Wore it with a light sweater to work, and then took the sweater off to show off the back for the party. Great for outdoor events!

Black tie optional.
A little tight at the top, but it should fit that way. I'm quite tall and this was long enough to hit right about where it does on the model, which was ideal for a black tie optional wedding. A great, comfortable dress for cooler days -- the fabric is sort of heavy, so it might not be right for a warm weather wedding.

It just was a really cool dress with interesting details. I looked different enough to be special.
This is a relatively narrow fitting dress, but as a girl without any waist definition, it definitely gave me one. The asymmetrical neckline is great, and the details on the side are just cool.
