decent work pants
I typically need a petite inseam, but the length worked on me. While the front of the pants and fabric were good, the sad elastic drawstring waistband on the back was very disappointing. It felt (and looked) like a Hefty cinch sack. I had to wear a blazer over a tucked in turtleneck to hide the yucky waistband.

way too tight
The fabric was overly clingy and unforgiving, even with shapewear. I couldn't wear it. Recommend sizing up!

Fun fall dress
I wore this a couple of times with brown knee-high boots and it felt like a classic fall look. The fabric isn't too heavy so it can layer over things, but the sleeves are too bulky to wear under a blazer.

obsessed with this sweater
I was VERY doubtful these colors would be flattering, but they somehow were. Nice, not-too-high crop. The sleeves seemed overly bulky when I pulled it out of the bag, but the whole thing fits beautifully. It's warm, but not too hot. Keeping it another month!

Nice work laptop bag
High quality leather -- no scuffs. Feels classic and trendy and a nice, neutral alternative to black or brown. My only complaint is that it's a tinge on the heavy side, an every pound counts when you're lugging around a bulky, work-issued laptop.

All-around great dress
I loved wearing this dress and would love to own it! Fun pattern, great autumnal colors. I wore it to work under a blazer and to post-work cocktails and felt great. Works with a wide variety of shoes -- heels, boots -- and isn't too long, even though it's full-length (and I'm pretty short). Great dress!
