super cute but way too small
I got the XL and while tops really vary for me (med-XL, depending), this blazer was just way too small to wear anywhere. The fabric is fun, and the cut/proportions would be flattering on a curvy body if only it were more true to size!

cute blazer!
I rented this for video interviews for job hunting. Super cute! Should have gotten a 16, it was a little tight in the shoulders. Nice structure, and the buttons are a fun detail, although you really have to wear it open-- the single hook and eye clasp looks really strange when fastened and draws attention to the purely ornamental buttons. Considering buying this one size up for layering purposes!

Too large and the puff sleeves lacked structure
I loved the color, but the suggested size of XL was simply too large for an item with so much stretch. The puff sleeves lacked structure, but the mock neck was cute. A smaller size probably would have been better, I ended up not wearing this item.

Not a fan
Very blocky blouse, the rickrack trim on the neckline and hem looked very weird. Tried it on and the fit wasn't good enough to wear anywhere.

Very boxy up top
Love the fabric but the fit didn't work for me. The shoulders were super wide and boxy but there was no other tailoring, so the silhouette falls straight down to the thigh where it just barely fits around my hips. The length was good but sooo much extra fabric up top. Definitely a jacket for a less curvy person!

Incredibly tight with no give
The fabric looked great, very lightweight, but these pants were SO small. Unbearably tight. Was definitely hoping for a little more give since they were described as a baggy relaxed fit. The rise was much lower than I expected so when I got them buttoned it was cameltoe central. 14-16 is my standard size and I wish these came in a bigger size because I can definitely see the appeal and stylishness. Disappointed not to be able to wear them out and about.
