So comfy!
Size Small was still too large on my 5'4" 117 lb frame, but I loved this anyway. It is lined in Army olive, matching the color of the "cape" on the back. It is SO well made--absolutely no itchy fabric due to a wonderful construction. But it is a few steps beyond the "boyfriend" look on me! Please forgive the awkward pose--I was trying to illustrate the fit. I very much recommend this but suggest sizing down a bit, or just enjoy the roominess! :)

Sent it back early
This was tighter fitting on me than was attractive. If you have a completely flat stomach, it would be cute. I don't, and it wasn't.:)

Didn't work for me
I liked the color and thought the photos online were spot on. The material feels nice, too. The fit was good through the hips and waist, but the ankle area was odd on me -- loose and sloppy looking. A slim fit everywhere but the ankles, go figure! I sent them back right away.

Looks good on others:)
This is a soft, comfortable merino wool sweater. It doesn't itch and it isn't too heavy. I loved the way it felt and I think it's really cute...on other people. The colors are a bit more muted in person and the fit would be much better on someone whose stomach is flat. I sized up and it fit ok. I wore it with AG jeans out for coffee but decided not to wear it to work because I didn't look good in it even though it felt good.

Nice material but too small
Beautiful colors and pattern, but runs at least one size too small. Also, the shoulders are kind of pointy probably due to being on a hanger, as happens with some knits. I wound up not wearing it anywhere and sent it back right away. Definitely size up so you can enjoy this one.

Nice material
This was easy to wear and had cute contrasting trim. The silk felt good and draped well, and the pattern has a Japanese vibe, but it's a casual top that doesn't really stand out.

Great work blouse.
I enjoyed this blouse for work and the weekend. I wore a tank top underneath and left the first few buttons open. The drape is nice and the shirt is fairly form fitting. It has a fun Western feel in an elegant fabric.

Fun and cozy
This is a fun jacket that is comfortable and interesting. It is a bit frumpy because it is bulky and doesn't drape, but I didn't care because it was just fun. In no way is it worth $1000+, but it is definitely a nice fall jacket for a casual workday or the weekend.

One of my favorites
What a fun and comfortable dress. I wore it at least 6 times in a month, taking advantage of its versatility as a work dress and a casual piece. It is fun and engaging with lovely pops of color and cute lines. It is not sexy; instead, it is cute. I wore it with leggings, flowered socks, and tennies. Would like to own this one if the price ever drops low enough! I wear a 4 or XS most of the time but previous reviews prompted me to select a 2 and it was great.

Really doesn't fit.
I normally wear a 4 (5'4", 117 lbs, 34D) and rented the XS. It was too big at the shoulders, way too long in the sleeves as others have mentioned, and way too tight at the hips. I couldn't wear it. It looks great on other people but was ridiculous on me. I can't recommend this one although I completely and utterly love the fabric. The fit is terrible, so it was a wasted choice for me.

Fantastic dress
What a dress. It's beautiful and comfortable and doesn't ride up at all. I wore this to an evening wedding and couldn't have been happier with this dress. Easy to dance in and just a complete delight. Say yes to this dress!!! :)

Flattering and fun
Size 4 fit beautifully. This is a comfortable dress, too. I wore it to a rehearsal dinner and enjoyed it very much. I'm a bit over 5'4", 117 lbs (well, maybe more now!!!!), 34 D.

Gorgeous on everyone but me! :)
Truly beautiful, but not on me. I am 3 lbs over my usual and this dress showed every bit of extra poundage. I looked lumpy! Also, the shoulder seam for the sleeves felt a bit restrictive. Wound up wearing another selection.
