Unique little black dress perfect for gala.
Thick, stretchy material. Snug but comfortable fit. Unique cut made for an interesting twist on the little black dress.

Perfect casual but professional bag
Loved this. Has one inside pocket--just enough for keys, work key card and a lipstick or such. Fit my laptop. Used in on weekends as well as a great bag to toss things in for the day. Versatility. Can play it up for work and dress down with it for casual.

Perfect "little red dress"
I wore this with a black jacket or sweater to work several times.but you could dress it up for an event or the evening as well. The cut of the arms makes it a little special. Great fit. Classy, stretchy fabric. I think I may buy it.

Easy to wear but professional
Super comfortable and stretchy. Ran a little large but not incredibly. Pretty much a basic black dress but white stitching made it special. I wore it with a burnt orange sweater, a black jacket and sleeveless for a couple different looks. Would definitely rent again.

Professional but fun.
True to Kate Spade this looked professional for work but the white trim and scalloped design made it interesting. Got several complements which is pretty good for a briefcase. One big zippered pocket plus 2 small ones perfect for phone, badge, biz cards, keys, etc. kept me organized. Plenty of room for laptop, charger plus papers. Really quite perfect.

Simple classic
Boxy, classic style. Very professional. Simple grey so matched everything--black, blue and reds. Fit my laptop plus charger and other work items well. Internal and external pocket worked well for business cards, phone, ID tag, glasses case, etc. but made of leather and very tight so didn't really accommodate my car keys. Also not lined which just felt a little less finished than other bags I've had.

Not too special
I wore it with a black dress once and with jeans and a black T-shirt another time. Felt kind of frumpy...maybe just because I was in NYC plus it was a little out of season for this wooly jacket. Definitely warm. Just not my style I guess.

Stylish but comfortable
I wore this out to dinner. Wanted to look stylish but casual and be comfortable—this piece did all 3! The styling is great—cloth cover button front, stitched seams down the front of the legs and a silky stripe the fabric at the bottom of the legs gave it a polished feel. Very (!) long belt with buckle that I ended up knotting which I thought looked nice. I wore it this plats to be more comfortable but would look awesome with pumps. Top ran pretty tight through the ribs—a could have gone up a size. But hips fit great. I really liked this. Might try it for work next.

Loved these!
These have an amazing fit. Look dressy but are fabulously stretchy and comfortable—I work them to bike to an art fair. Stripes stand out but not over the top. Loved the length with flared leg. I ordered a size up as they looked tight and I wanted something appropriate for work. Wore with navy and black sweater plus wedged Sandler’s for casual Friday at work. Wire with black t-shirt and flats for weekend outing. May have to buy these...

Summery jacket for work
Ran small but I wore it unbuttoned over a black t-shirt and black slacks for a biz casual look at work. Nice. Stripes definitely stood out but in black and white it wasn't over the top.

Didn't wear
Got it for work. It wasn't my style. Fit in the hips but baggy everywhere else. Not lined and the fabric was not stretchy or think so it just didn't feel great. Gold zipper in the back--I'm more into silver. Didn't end up wearing it.

Unique
This coat was quite unique. Upholstery like fabric. Wonderful colors. Perfect coat for a Minnesota spring--pretty warm but colors and floral pattern made if feel seasonal. I wore it a lot--with black leggings and a black shirt, or black skirt and booties., or jeans and a black sweater. Definitively unique.

Striking
These earrings were much larger than I expected but I thought they were great. They were striking and I wore them with just jeans and a sweater--out for a drinks with my husband--and I thought they popped and made an ordinary outfit cool.

Holds everything but looks super chic
I LOVED this bag. I used it to replace my briefcase for a spell and loved it. Many pockets to tuck keys, phone, make-up, pens, etc. Very light weight--I had to keep checking to make sure I had my laptop as it added no additional weight. Great textured grey leather that matched everything. Yes it was huge but it still looked really stylish. Am sorry to send it back.

I expected something thicker, stretchier. It was tight. But, also just didn't feel luxurious. Not what I as hoping for in my chilly northern climate.

Love this. Looks very polished but made out of a soft sweater-like material. I wore it with jeans to my biz casual office but would also work with a skirt or trousers.

Odd shape
This really didn't work for me. The neckline is too large and doesn't lay flat. Overall it's very large and stiff so sticks out in odd ways.

Can wear it every day with everything
Loved this with jeans, black leggings and tall boots, long slim skirt. I rented this for a month and wore it over and over. A little scratchy--wore something under it (t-shirt or blouse) and runs pretty big--ended up folding up the sleeves a lot.

Oh so comfortable yet professional
I work this with grey jackets, black tights and short boots a couple times and LOVED it. Thick but stretchy fabric. Looks like a wool skirts but feels like sweatpants. The color is different from my usual black but worked with everything in my grey and black closet.

Hmmmm....
This was not attractive when worn. Very sparkly--I ordered for work but wouldn't be appropriate in my office. Very very low cut which made it unflattering all around.

Perfect balance
Perfect dress for a funky formal birthday bash. I wore it with opaque black tights and black suede heels to give it a more casual feel. Loved the neckline...unique. The fabric was fun...splash of silver shine made it stand out from the typical a little black dress. Tight fit and no stretch...I think of myself as a size 2 but even the backup size 4 (which I wore) was quite fitted, though still really comfortable.

Beautiful fabric and beading
I ended up wearing my backup dress and not this one. I weight 125 and typically wear a size 2. I ordered a size 2 and 4...the 2 fit but the waist was a little short. The 4 (pictured) looked and felt better on. It's a great dress, beautifully beaded, feels very well made and "rich" due to the weight...and I especially loved the way the bottom was see-through and showed off my legs. But, is relatively short (I'm 5'6") and the length didn't seem formal enough for the "black tie optional" event I was attending. I loved everything about the look except the back--too open and not that attractive on. But, overall I liked it so well that I am thinking of re-ordering it for a less formal event coming up.

Classy dress
I usually wear a 2 or 4 and this dress in a small fit well--hugged my body but not too tight. If anything the top especially around the neck and shoulders was a little loose. I'm 5'6" and the dress came just about to my ankles which was great for the "black tie optional" event I was attending but might not work for everyone. The fabric is thick and very stretchy which was incredibly comfortable and kept me warm despite the bare arms. I wore with some large earrings--pearl, crystal and black...the black accent worked well with the dress--and a small string of pearls...I tried some flashier necklaces but they competed with the wavy pattern woven into the fabric.
