Nice cut; cute pattern
Great staple. Tempted to buy but it's a bit too Standard. Wore this several times though. Works with a lot.

A little too strange for me
Shape and buttons were not flattering on me. If it fit perfectly, I might have tried the funky style, but I didn't want to draw attention to something that wasn't very flattering

Hard to pair
V neck is too deep without a camisole, but camisole looked strange with bell sleeps and style. Ended up only wearing once. Nothing special. Color is nice.

Didn't look professional
I was going for a slightly off the ordinary look, but this just looked strange and weird. Fabric was cheap feeling and pattern did not look good on me.

Basic, well made, but nothing special
Fit was slightly on the small side compared to other brands. Blouse was a nice color and well tailored. slit gap between buttons around the chest area (and i'm only a B cup). Didn't stand out as anything special.

Very nice look, great fabric. slits are pretty high in the flaps.
Black Carwash Skirt

beautiful color; show a lot of skin.
Gorgeous color but elastic is loose and thr shirt dips very low in the back and off the shoulder. maybe it would be better a size down for those who need something more conservative. not sure i can wear this to a work event. will try to pin it.
