Fun cropped moment
Ok- the sizing guide is off here. If you wear a 4/6, a small is ideal/the intended fit. I am solidly a size 4 in most brands, including this brand, and the XS (all that was available) fit too. I could button across my chest without pulling, which was my only concern sizing down. Cute, comfortable, cool and can go day -> night easily.

Great spot filler
Added just because I needed to fill that last spot, and now I'm obsessed and fully hoping it will go on sale so I can own it. So soft and effortless.

Cute, but rolled down on me too
I ignored the person who warned about this... I'm not sure if it's my bust size or if it's just the way it was constructed, but even trying it on for less than 5 mins I had to adjust twice. You could maybe make it work with fashion tape, but I have bad posture and rented for a dinner out, so I couldn't be bothered with it.

Cannot stop wearing this
I’ve worn this at least 10 times, mostly for errands and low key outings. It’s comfortable, warm but doesn’t get too hot when wearing indoors, and has an oversized but flattering fit (it covers your butt if you’re weird about that when wearing leggings like I am). The compliments come out of the woodwork- at the post office, at Ace hardware, at daycare drop off, etc. People love this fruit printed fleece. Rent it!

Don't overlook the button on the side!
Ok, yes, this is large. But that's intentional. The material is v luxe (a bit more coat-like than I expected though, so I haven't been able to wear it as much as I want to). Also, it's not clear from the pic, but there is a button on the side that you can use to create a more cinched (and totally different) look. Check out Tibi's website/IG to see- I'm not good about taking outfit pics.

Fun + comfort
I love this fun, summer dress. It easily transitions from day-night and indoor-outdoor. It has pockets too! The print actually picks up a lot of their current prints within it, which I didn't realize until I saw it in person. I had purchased one of their face masks, so as a bonus I had a nice little mask/dress coordinating moment.

So hard to return!
Soft and high quality... loved the button detail on the sides. I kept it for 2 months (sorry y'all). Great for early/mid pregnancy for all of the preggos out there because it's long enough where you can wear your maternity leggings underneath and it's still a legitimate outfit, and it doesn't hug the stomach (nice for that stage of pregnancy where your bump looks more so like holiday weight gain).

Easy elegance
Nice details like slits and pockets (!!!) that aren’t noticeable in the photo. Nice movement. Several compliments. If you have a larger cup size don’t make the mistake I did of sizing down. There is a top liner that only goes to the stomach that is very fitted and not stretchy at all.

Fun dress (but didn’t work on me)
This dress was more flattering from the side profile than the front, as it pulled too much across my chest and shoulders. It did fit in the waist and hips, so it seems this dress just wasn’t made for my body type. I’m giving it 5 stars because the fabric is gorgeous and it's clearly of high quality, and it would have been fun to wear had the fit been better!

Warm & chic
I feel compelled to write a review because I think this jacket deserves more love. The mustard color is great, as is the oversized fit. I considered buying it because I was wearing it so much. It was perfect for 30-40 degree days when I wanted to look a touch dressier. The arms are a little short, but since I don't usually have this problem, I assume this was by design.

Amazing
This is a beautiful dress. It's worth the slightly uncomfortable netting up top. If you're worried about it looking matronly- don't. It doesn't. It's perfect.

Love!
I loved this. I wore it out to dinner, to work, during the day...it's pretty warm for a 30's + kind of degree weather. The color is amazing and versatile. The tie at the waist helps you not lose your shape. The fabric was a little pilled from wear, but you could only tell that up close.

Beautiful color, thick material, tight
I didn't end up wearing this because I could barely zip it over my chest. I would probably size up if you have a larger chest...it's so body conscious that I doubt one size up would look too big anywhere. I ended up wearing something else though because I have Unlimited and ordered another dress that fit better at the same time.

Photographs well
I really enjoyed wearing this, even though it was a touch snug and the liner underneath was a tad bit short. Worth it for the pictures!

So fun!
I love the back! I also loved the material and how it flows. It was perfect for a pre-wedding party in a Caribbean locations. Also, I was able to go bra-less without feeling self conscious, which is a rare occasion. Also, you can wear cute flats with it and not worry about it dragging the floor, another rarity for me.

Adorable
This is a beautiful clutch and holds everything you need for a night out. I was kind of bummed when the strap came loose and I couldn't get it back in because I tend to like using a strap as the night goes on when I'm going out. This minor issue might just be isolated to my case, though.

Too short in the back
Pros: nice material, comfortable up top Cons: everyone is totally right about the fit in the back. I am short and have a small butt (significant others have commented on how small it is), and this was unwearable in size small, which I almost always wear. Don't even bother getting your normal size if you want to wear this in public.

Too small to wear
SIZE UP unless you are a stick figure. I am almost always a size 2, and this was way, way too tight in the stomach and hips (which I would actually consider myself on the smaller side, hip-wise). Unfortunately I did not get a back-up size because this was my "backup dress" when my other dress was unavailable in my preferred back-up size. I will say that one pro with this is that I could have worn a real bra with it easily, had I been able to wear it, and the material is thick.
