Flirty and femme
Loved this dress. Found it really flattering but it juuuuust fit me in the waist. The photos don't show that it has silver details in the fabric which made it slightly dressier than I'd imagined. The fabric is thin which made static cling an issue at first. Overall, I was batting my lashes all day in this dress.

Impractical yet lovable
Really comfy little get up. But I have no clue where I thought I was going in this so it only made it out for some errands. I'm all for quirky pieces but the stripes said fancy pajamas and the low crotch said genie and everything else said 1930's prison chain gang. If the crotch wasn't so low, I probably coulda made it work. Didn't love it but couldn't hate it.

The perfect optical illusion
I believe I sized up after reading reviews and it ended up fitting perfectly. I'm pretty narrow but the color blocking gave the illusion of hips and booty where I have very little. The fabric is heavy so it was great for indecisive NYC weather. Do not wear if you're trynna blend in. This is an "I have arrived, you're welcome" dress.

It's a NO from me
Looked fun but there was nothing flattering about it. Just looked like an oversized nightshirt. Still unsure of whether I needed a larger or smaller size because the fit was so weird.

Unique winter coat held up to NYC winter
Kept this one for a while because a lot of the coats I've received are too flimsy to stand any chance against an NYC wind tunnel. Kinda reminiscent of a teddy bear coat without being too bulky. Because it runs large, it's not terribly flattering on a smaller frame when it's all buttoned up but if you're into the "boyfriend jacket" look, this is a good one. Weird side note- I got compliments on the lining of this coat. Had no clue there was a map of the world until someone mentioned it.

Perfect for work and play
At first I thought "This is a lot." The pattern is very bandana-ish but it looked great on. Material is slightly heavy but moves nicely. Sleeves were a little tight at the wrists even though I have absurdly small wrists. Fun enough for night time hijinks yet work-appropriate.

Got separation anxiety after returning this stunner
I wanted a fuss-free alternative to a cocktail dress for a semi-formal event. Worried it might be too teeny-bopper but it's very well-made, sleek and playful. Black side panels make for a really nice hourglass illusion. The one big issue was that the bust area was way too big for my A cups. Had to wear the most padded bra I own and was just barely filling it out. Everything else fit comfortably.

Sweet, flirty but high maintenance
Fit perfectly and the rose/dot pattern really pops. Loved the high waist and the slits. I didn't realize until I'd worn it a full day that a past renter had taken upon themselves to alter the hemline by about 3 inches so I have no idea what the unaltered length looks like. Thanks previous renter? My biggest gripe was because it's so beautifully symmetrical, it drove me up the wall to look down and see that the pleats and lines had shifted as I moved around. I must've adjusted it 3 dozen times. But I'm kinda neurotic so maybe this isn't a big deal.

Like a fancy auto mechanic
Unique, fun and the pinstripes were the perfect touch. A great winter jumper. I really wanted to love it but it had a few things that made it awkward. The lining of the breast pockets kept flopping out. The length was just a tad too short and I'm only 5'5. The fit in the general left me feeling like we could've had it all...but alas. Still really cute.

Sassy gothic snowflake vibes
Fit perfectly yet the length of the dress required at least an inch more heel-wise than I needed to be wearing after 3 cocktails. Lightweight. Flowed beautifully, with the slightest hint of shimmer and texture. The fabric was a little itchy at first but I forgot all about it after the 3 cocktails.

Cocktail Combat Attire
True to size for the most part but a little loose around the bust if you're as flat chested as I am. Very femme yet structured and beautifully made. The fishnet neckline? Yes, ma'am. Hemline was a little longer than I like. And it would've been nice to be able to raise my arms above my head but I kept all my dance moves hip-centric for the night. A small sacrifice.
