Classic with a little twist!
Midi-skirts are great for so many events and I was looking forward to wearing this out with friends or while shopping, but unfortunately, I had some sizing issues in the hip area. It's okay as this happens quite a bit to me when I wear skirts that do not have a stretch band - I just need a larger size. The slits felt like they came up to a decent height that still felt appropriate enough to wear out. Also, the ruching in the front of the skirt is an interesting detail. Not bad, but definitely different.

She's more naughty than nice.
I thought this would be a great dress for work or transitioning out to dinner, but there were a few fit problems that made this inappropriate for anything but date night. The slit in the leg is TOO HIGH and if you've got larger thighs/hips the height of the buttons causes gaps to appear at the top of the slit. The dress appears relatively modest up top, but the bottom is not giving the same vibe. I would say that the buttons need to end at least 2-3 inches lower to prevent this. Otherwise, if you don't mind the full slit and want something cute, I would recommend this dress for fun events. :)

Comfy, stylish, and WARM
I ADORE THIS SWEATER. Seriously, if I could buy it right now and wear it every day, I absolutely would. Alas, spring is upon us and it would just be stuck in my closet. BUT, seriously, this is an amazing sweater. The color block looks fantastic in person with the metal zipper details. The neck isn't constricting and the arms are large/long enough for sweater paws.

Super Sweet
Absolutely love the color and fit of this dress in person. It fell in all the right places on a curvy body. I was worried at first that the top would be too small for my chest, but it ended up being the perfect fit on top. This was the perfect dress for a spring day!

Color for days!
I absolutely love the colors and texture of this cardigan. It's definitely chunky and runs a little big/boxy because of the pocket placement, but I'm sure you could style it with a cute belt and leggings if you wanted to make it look less box.

An absolute gem!
Loved this dress so much. I was worried that it wouldn't be big enough but the material is perfectly stretchy and form-fitting. It was a little scratchy in the arms but I quickly adjusted. The length was perfect and the cut of the design was so flattering. I would definitely wear this in other colors. Best compliment of the night was "Cruella vibes!"

Lovely color and texture!
This is a truly beautiful top but I didn't get a chance to wear it out as I misjudged what size I would need. I think there might be extra fabric in the back portion of the top bit everywhere else fit perfectly on me. If I had sized down I think I would have had a closer fit to my back instead of the loose fabric. Perhaps size down if you want a skin-tight fit!

Complicated for no reason
Would've loved wearing this if the top wasn't so weird to figure out. I have pretty big hips so I knew this would be an over the head try on and everything fit where it needed to without looking horrible. BUT the top is so needlessly complicated as a design and is nearly impossible to figure out how to drape and fix. You shouldn't have to Google how to put on a skirt like this.

Cozy but heavy!
This is a beautiful sweater but definitely better for a colder climate than mine. It was very chunky and thick which lead to some fluff shedding on my pants and in my hair. It also runs large so this is perfect for someone looking for an extra-cozy and warm wear.
