Too small, won’t accommodate sunglasses
Cute bag, more of a lapis blue. Very thin profile, does not stretch to accommodate holding sunglasses. Had hoped would be enough to serve as a clutch for small wallet, key fob, lipstick and sunglasses. Works great at night if you don’t need a spot to hold sunglasses. Did not use.

Genius sundress
This sundress is so flattering. Wore it on a chartered boat cruise in Charleston in August. Although the dress is actually layered with a lining, everything is cotton. So, in addition to loads of modesty, it actually helped me stay cool. Very breezy and flattering. Got tons of compliments. Wore the ties in knots just behind the shoulder, a little less fussy, IMO. Also, because the straps do actually tie, it allows for a fairly custom fit in addition to offering styling optionality.

So cute!
This is such a flattering cover up! Very difficult to incorporate with a bra, but great over a swim suit. The fabric is lined with polyester and does NOT feel comfortable in direct sun / heat. Better for indoors, early morning, or transitions between indoors / waterside. I love wearing it poolside in the shade when I’m hosting up snacks and cocktails.

Too small for sunglasses
Had hoped to use this a outdoor concerts and music festivals. The way the bag compartments split inside the bag, it will not safely protect/ hold sunglasses without squishing/ scratching. Sadly, did not use once.

Is not bra compatible
Tried with various bras, including backless adhesive. There simply isn’t enough coverage to incorporate a bra. Also, not enough coverage, IMO, to wear without a bra. A smaller size might work better???

Full figure at the bust
No go. Tried tying a couple different ways, using fabric tape and safety pins. There was 3” of extra gap at the underarms / top of chest. No way to confidently secure and style without alterations. Unable to wear at all. Soft cotton fabric, would have been ideal to stay cool on hot summer day.

Fun, casual summer dress!
Tried the medium and large. Unexpectedly, while the medium fit fine around the waist and hips, the top was too small. The large worked out great. Very comfortable. Wore with an adhesive backless/strapless bra, worked like a charm.

Unique, elegant dress
Not sure how the tie is supposed to be used, I looped it twice through the collar and then spun it back around the waist to tie in the front. Very cool!

Better for full figure.
Ended up not wearing, despite downsizing, top way too big for my 32D chest. Even tried using a clip to tighten the straps. No go.

Very cute! Small at the chest.
Very cute on, easy to wear. Was fitted just right through waist and hip, but fairly tight at the chest. I wear a 32C- 32D bra and size 31 jeans. I may have been more comfortable in the 12. Ladies more endowed should definitely consider sizing up to next size if in doubt.

Elegant, runs small at the chest.
Plenty of room at the waist and hip. I ALMOST couldn’t wear the M, as it was very tight at the chest. 32D bra and I usually wear size 31 jeans.

Runs a touch large and its just a lot of fabric sitting right at the hip, not flattering to pear-shape IMO. Cute concept.

Preppy, easy dress!
Tried the 10 and 12. The 10 was the right fit, still had plenty of room at waist and hips. Had to re-iron the pleats to get the dress to lay down in a flattering way. Really nice fabric.

Not worn, very short waisted and tight at the waist.
Even worn with high waisted pants, it didn’t work. Too short AND too tight at the waist. If I had sized up, would have been too loose at the chest.

Gorgeous fabric
Beautiful, double-breasted blazer is very elegant. It falls right at the natural waist, I could definitely size down a size or even 2. I am curvier at the hips, and probably could wear a size 6 or size 8 in this jacket.

Very boxy, runs large
This cut has little forgiveness from shoulder to hips, pretty much runs straight up and down. Therefore, very boxy on top, yet I’m not sure I could size down and clear my hips comfortably. If you are more pear shaped like me, it may not be the most flattering shape.

Tight at the hips, and very short.
If you are pear shaped or hour glass, you’ll want to size up. I can wear dresses ranging from 8-12, and the 12 would have been a better option. Had hoped to wear to St Patti’s day celebration, maybe next year! I’m 5’9” and would definitely need leggings or opaque tights to be comfortable in this dress. Fell just below the cheeks, my friends.

Tricky color
Didn’t love the color of this dress, full of woven pastel hues, seems like something I’d put a toddler into. The dress is very heavy and seemed like it might not hold its shape very well after an hour or so.

Foundational quandary
Super cute top, flattering. I don’t own a bra that would work with this top, (entirely backless, and the tie goes below the natural waistline in the back) and I have many. In order for me to feel comfortable, I’d need to find a very fitted, crop/halter to wear under as a second layer.

A little tight across the shoulders. Very unstructured; the sleeves and collar didn’t hold their shape well and tended to curl around and look a little dishouveled.

Runs very small
I’m wearing a size 31 in Hudson jeans, or size 12 dress lately. Neither the L nor XL sizing worked for me. Also, the offset color in this fabric is tan-ish, not cream. Looks good with white as shown, but a cream or ecru colored top might be difficult to pull off.

Jersey fabric is casual
This is a thin jersey fabric that feels like a stubby tee shirt. Does not show well, in my opinion. Would be great for a day of shopping, or wear to a more casual church service, or maybe a baby shower.
