Great for everyday or weekend - nothing special.
Definitely baggy and not very flattering around the arm holes.

Great for festive and summer outings!
Really wanted to wear this. I have a long waist and the dress tie was literally just below my breasts.

Wore it for weekend brunch with friends.
It's nice, but a little too much going on. I have a long waist and full breasts -- the top part of this dress just did not sit right.

Nice length but neck is definitely chunky
Comfortable fit. Little hard to pull on but very comfortable. Narrow neck opening but very chunky polo. Versatile.

Got a lot of compliments
Overall nice -- meant to be worn open and casual. Sleeves are shorter than appears in picture. Is somewhat dense, so perfect for cooler days. Travels well.

Floral Varsity Bomber

Great promise but not flattering, especially if you have full breasts.
Drapes well. The 'long" is really long so heels are needed. Very comfortable material, but shows every line and roll underneath. Even with Spanx it takes real effort to make it look as good as any of the pics promoting this dress.

Silver Twist Column Gown
HALSTON

So versatile!
Just love this sweater. I chose it a little on the large side, but I did not drown in it. So simple, but the white braid and tassles brings just the right level of detail to lift the overall presentation of it. Great for everyday dressing, whether for work or fun! It's a warm sweater, so don't wear it if you are going to be in an overheated room! Really great piece that has a good length, nice feel and looks great!

Asymmetric Braid Sweater

Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 12

Attention-grabbing
Got a lot of compliments.Slightly sparkly. Very bold. Definitely does not go by unnoticed. Leg split goes high and is a fun addition to the cut of the skirt. Good skirt length --- better to wear with something with a heel.

Good-looking
Nice, deep blue color. Very flattering fit. Neck and sleeve details quite layered. This is not something that you can wear under another jacket, so mostly for Summer or warm evenings. Really nice piece.

Just so
These pants were good-looking, but the fabric was heavy, somewhat rough and definitely more for Fall or Winter. In the end I felt I was wearing something that felt bulky. The look is good, and works well as casual or dressed up.

Sparkly --- but for waifs
I loved the look of this dress, but alas, it was not going to work for me. Slightly stretchy and very short. Would have looked perfect on someone skinnier and shorter than I. So disappointing not to have it in slightly larger size - this is a body hugging dress.

Sparkly!
Great arm piece - not too flashy but rounds out a cocktail outfit nicely!
