Actually pretty festive for Christmas
Wore this to work on the day of our students' winter showcase. My coworkers all made Flavortown jokes and complimented the shirt. I think flames are Holiday Season compatible: we all love to feel cozy next to an open fire, right? I will say that the shirt could be buttoned all the day; however, it was tight around the hips, so I wore it over a black t-shirt and buttoned the top three buttons and left the remaining buttons undone. Looked kind of metal with Doc Marten Jadons.

Super fun and not itchy or cropped!
So, the arms are a little big and it's not exactly a flattering sweater. However, the sweater is so fun. It's a great print and it worked as a work outfit with jeans and as a daytime birthday party outfit over a dress. I received many compliments for it. It really brightened my mood.

Love the frayed hems. Cut is meh.
This cut and length doesn't do much except show off cool shoes. It will make you look shorter and squatter. They're a little high-waisted, so they are wider in the waist while fitting the hips. They were okay.

Warm and cute! Perfect way to fight the winter blues!
Styled this with light clothes and my ancient gray Timbs. This kept me warm on a 30-degree day. Lots of compliments.

Meh. Too long.
Liked the idea, not the execution. This was a little too big and way too long. Styled with the Doc Jaydons so it wouldn't look as dowdy but to no avail. Got tons of compliments on this fit, though.

A smidge large in the underarms, cropped
I like this overall, but the arms—especially where the underarms are concerned—were a little baggy in this size. Otherwise, it's a good size everywhere else. It's very comfortable. The mockneck is nice.

Dipping HARD into the fringe
Fringe on the front, back, and on the arms makes this top a li'l extra. I paired it with jeans in a psychedelic print for a sort of space cowgirl thing. Nice for a brisk fall day (55-63 degrees Fahrenheit).

So cute! Loved it as a layering piece
I work with very active adolescents, so I tend to wear more comfortable clothes. A two-piece sweat set broke up the monotony while still allowing me to move. Plus, the color is so fun! Naturally, since I was wearing this to work, I layered the pullover over another shirt and it looked pretty great. One of my coworkers said I gave off Street Fighter vibes (a win, natch). I didn't wear the hood throughout the day, but I did look like a boxer when I pulled it over my head . I'm not mad at that.

Too transparent and tight for me to wear on its own
I already knew I was going to layer this underneath another top, but I do like the idea (and the color!) overall. Since it's transparent and it's a racerback, it's probably best to wear a nude racerback/sports bra that matches your skin tone underneath it.

Made the workday a bit more fun
I work with very active adolescents, so I tend to wear more comfortable clothes. A two-piece sweat set broke up the monotony while still letting me move. It didn't stretch out throughout the day. Plus, the color is so fun! Also, the reviews are right: it's best to size down. I'd have initially guessed that I'd have been an XL. Based on the reviews, I chose an L and I'm glad I did. It fit perfectly.

Practical purse for an active day
This purse is just COOL. I love the colors; however, I didn't realize that the strap would be fabric (pretty cool, actually!). I adjusted the strap so I could wear the bag a bit higher (I like that sporty look). It looked great with the rest of the outfit. I received many compliments. I also was able to carry my important stuff (and—although not shown—I was able to clip my badge, work keys, and sanitizer to the purse), which was perfect for an active workday chasing adolescents.

Meet the perfect summer dress
There are many things I love about this dress. It's versatile enough to wear in a professional setting or to a party. It's a lightweight cotton, so it's ideal for humid summer weather. The colors are really pretty and evoke pleasant feelings (my mother had a dress almost exactly like this 30+ years ago). It has POCKETS. It's so comfortable and easy to wear. Don't you love that?

Nautical vibe makes this perfect for summer
This whimsical bag transformed three different outfits. That said, it's not all that practical: although I was able to fit my wallet, phone, keys, and sunglasses into the bag, it looked a little awkward. As seen in the product carousel, there's no way to close it, so there's that. That said, an impractical bag should at least be fun and this one was! Love the nautical vibe for summer.

Get ready for your bazooms to make an appearance
This is a great top for summer. It's a very breathable lightweight cotton. The print is fun and the color is cheerful! However, be warned that this top will put your boobies on display. It's also cropped, so style accordingly. I opted for more conservative high-waisted jeans to balance out the breast buffet.

Beautiful color, warm knit, cropped, not flattering
I dig the Victorian sailor vibes of this top. I willingly overlooked the opulent dimensions because the color is just so lovely. The sleeves are a bit long when pulled down all the way; the knit has a bit of a futuristic flair. When the sleeves are pushed up, they look like piles of rope candy. I don't really care that it's not flattering. I just don't like that it's a little on the cropped side.

Vibrant color, quality fabric, great for summer
Fortunately the temperature was in the mid-60s tonight, so wearing this dress in November in New York wasn't completely insane. That being said, this is more of a spring-/summer-appropriate dress. The other reviewers are right about the size, though: it was tight in the waist. Loved it anyway.

Great tie-dye look, very versatile, too light for fall
Fits perfectly in the shoulders, but is loose elsewhere due to the oversized cut (just how an oversized jacket should be). Nice tiedye, but it was way too light to wear as I did in this photo in New York in November. It's more like a spring/summer/early fall jacket. I was more comfortable when I layered it over a heavy sweatshirt.

A nice denim jumpsuit that fits!
It's always a challenge to find a jumpsuit that properly fits a pear-shaped body. This was awesome: it was a nice quality denim, the color was cool, and the lace-up features were cute. The only annoying thing is that this doesn't seem to come in petite sizes, so it was a little long. Also, the arm holes are a little large, which means a bra or cami will show (however, large arm holes also made this really easy to take off to go to the bathroom, so that's a plus). Overall, I loved this.
