Pockets! Runs a little big
Has the cutest pockets if you're a pocket gal. Runs big and open on the top so I had to pair with a tank. Would be cute with the right bralette or crop. The front fabric crosses over and flows nicely but if enough wind blows the two can separate and show a little more than you might bargain for.

Gorgeous and comfortable
I want this dress in multiple patterns. Hello? It has pockets. I gave it a 3 star because the buttons kept popping open on my chest area and the bottom few.

Gorgeous and easy to wear
This dress is really pretty. The cut is fun and made me feel womanly. I didn't get a chance to take this on the town but I did snap a pic for the gram out wearing it before I sent it back. Had a pretty neckline if you like a lower cut, but my fave part was the ruffly detail

Super cute lightweight and not too showy
This is super cute - it barely showed my belly and only in the right places. I have some extra weight on my tummy area so this was a really flattering and nice outfit for me.

Love love love!
Absolutely love this piece - wore it to a brunch as a dress, but actually preferred it as a tunic with some skinny jeans. Wore it twice. My kids loved "petting" me because it was so soft. Very cute, almost kept it.

Great wedding or cruise dress!
I just wore this for pictures/date at the park but it was really comfortable and beautiful. I got the 2L and Im usually a petite 4, so ran a hair big and fit me perfect. The low cut neckline didnt bother me as others had noted. There is a LOT of fabric so unless youre truly very tall, I would go with the shorter lengths. I had to carry my dress around most of the day. @chantel.alyssa

Lovely Day Time Skirt
I received many compliments on my outfit this day - I wore it on a date with a friend to a local nursery. It looked so cute amongst the flowers we had to take a pic "for the gram". I like to wear my skirts up really high so the extra tie was a nice touch.

Classic, sexy and elegant
This dress was so fun to wear. I dressed it down with sneakers and a little hat for a instagram photoshoot, and it was so comfortable and sexy. I will say if you have a no flat tummy it lays a little unflattering in that area, but nothing some spanx wouldn't help with! Would've kept longer and tried a few other ways to wear it if I didn't need to return.

One of a kind
This dress was nothing like what everyone else was wearing at a formal wedding we attended. Compliments were never ending throughout the day & evening and the dress was incredibly comfortable. I have a smaller chest so the super low cut of this was not inappropriate or too showy, could be more sexy if you are larger in the bust. Since I am small chested my normal size fit me perfectly. Had my arms or chest been a bit bigger though I would've had to size up for sure. Super flattering. Beautiful embroidery. Absolutely loved this dress. @chantel.alyssa

Really cute - Fits a little weird
The fit is a little too boxy for me personally, but I did love the colors and the cut down the neckline. Squished my boobs and I am not chesty. Didnt show off my waist and kind of showed my tummy too much for personal preference. If you're shaped a little less pear than me it could be really nice! @chantel.alyssa

Was a little too warm for Summer so would recommend as a Fall or Winter jacket instead - really soft and comfortable. Loved it! @chantel.alyssa

Fun dress, not for petites imo
This dress is really pretty! Definitely not the best fit on me, though. I think someone with more curves and a taller build would LOVE this dress. For me, it hugged me in the tummy but loosely not structured. I used a belt to hold it up to a more appropriate length. The chili design is super cute - could look really nicely styled for a party with some Mexican flare! I tried to style it a little more desert-y here in Colorado.

Stunning dress, huge hit!
Absolutely stunning. Perfect for me with a smaller chest...wasn't too heavy, even for a Spring/Summer NOLA wedding. Lots of looks but even more compliments. Paired with a super simple earring and black shoes. Styled on @chantel.alyssa

My favorite jacket!
Im sad I sent this back, I've been trying to rent it again for a month now. Its really beautiful and I am going to try the green one next! Its such a pretty coat. I wore it a couple of times before I sent it back - see photos from my insta @chantel.alyssa The one I received did have a weird wrinkle in it, but I didnt notice until later when I looked at pics...just needs a fresh press, I believe.

Really cute, tight in the tummy
My only qualm with this pant is that in order to button it fully I had to pull it up so far I gave myself a little frontal wedgie - ouchie! I think the non-petite version would've been better for me, but I'm only 5'3" so who knows?! Really nice material though - well made! @chantel.alyssa

I'm a teddy bear!!
I'll admit, I let my kids run around in this jacket because it was so fluffy and fun. I wore it twice - once with a slinky black dress for valentines day and once for some pics for my instagram (@chantel.alyssa) - see pics. Loved it. Would rent again!

Super cute pants
Not the absolutely most flattering pants I've ever worn, but lots of compliments nonetheless. Worked great on my short frame but theres not a lot of structure if you have any tummy (like me). Super cute. Would wear again! See final pics @chantel.alyssa

I now see this jacket everywhere, but its so fabulous. I wore it three times in a week to squeeze a few outfits out of it before I returned it. I almost kept it. Such a fun piece!

I love this blouse. The frills are just enough to add details but not get in the way. Gorgeous silk quality is amazing. Will wear a few times before i return. I show my styles @chantel.alyssa xo

Cozy and adorable
I love this. I may keep it, honestly. I usually order XS in free people because a lot of their things fall off my shoulders or are too baggy in the chest, but this piece runs more tts (I'm a 4 usually). I paired this with a high waist jean and tank the first time and will wear a jumpsuit or similar under it when I wear it again this weekend. Would look super cute in some overalls or with a pencil skirt too!

Compliments on how I styled this all day!
This dress is really flattering - mine didn't come with the wrap/belt so the little loops on the side were silly but it didn't need the belt to fit nicely. There is a small snap in the chest that pops open easily, so you bigger chested ladies this might not be a good fit for you. I'm between an xs and small, I should've gotten the small. Dress is lined rather nicely - needs black or nude undies just in case of flash photos or bright lights. Fabric arrived a tish "staticky" but I also live in Colorado, it's dry here. I styled with black booties (winter), a chunky Anthro necklace and pulled my hair into a low ponytail. Would be a great happy hour or even interview dress.

Very cute, wrinkles a bit
Very flattering shape - there is some room in the high waist/tummy area but no control top so if you have some extra love up there wear a spanx or similar. Covers nicely, doesnt flatten. Very pretty color. Wore with a tshirt and booties to dress it up. Would look great fancy too.

A little itchy if you're sensitive to wool, very warm do not wear to a hot /cozy event. Looks great dressed up or down. Is fitted but not too tight. Looks nice under a jacket and not bulky. Would wear again!
