I am very slim and petite, and usually in a blazer I look like a child playing dress-up. I was intrigued by this because of its simplicity - not even single or double breasted, no buttons, no extraneous details, but still very professional looking. The product photo didn't excite me, but I rented it thinking it would be a boring but serviceable addition to my order. This blazer is AWESOME! For petite ladies, you'll know that Theory is bomb. I'm usually a XXSP or 00P in middle of the road brands like Ann Taylor or Loft, but in Theory a 0 is a true 0 that works great for petites. This is so versatile, and I've worn it with slim trousers and heels for work and with skinny jeans and boots and a tee underneath for casual fridays. I am only upset because I think I have to buy it, and I don't really want to spend the money.... but I think this piece is worth it. Very very dark navy color.

I have to 100% agree with the other reviewers who pointed out the incredibly weird sleeves on what would otherwise be a stunning dress. I rented this dress for a business event, and did not even wear it. Everything fit beautifully in the bodice, the length, color, and quality of the fabric were to die for.... but the gigantic sleeves made the dress absolutely un-wearable. I am a very typical size 0, and I tend to go for dresses that run small. The sleeves on this dress were literally 3 times the size of my arm at the opening! Suffice it to say, this dress in real life looks nothing like the photo on the model. Picture those sleeves looking more like oversized bell-bottoms, and that would be a more accurate depiction. I own quite a few Tracy Reese garments because her stuff typically runs very small and I typically love the cut/quality, but this dress is just a rare huge mis-step for the designer and for RTR. I was very disappointed with this one, so heed the reviewer warnings!

The muted orange color of this dress was just lovely; it was really the only thing about which I had initial reservations, but once I saw the hue I was very pleased. You will definitely stand out in the crowd, but you shouldn't be worried about looking neon/radioactive. I am very petite and actively seek out dresses that "run small"; this frock definitely runs tight and short, but in a way that worked perfectly for me. Because the dress flares from the waist, you will definitely be showing a ton of leg if you're tall. I wore this to a convention/tradeshow during the day with a cardigan and flats, and to a dinner at night with heels. There were times during the day where I wondered if the look was too sexy, but I felt awesome and got tons of compliments so I rolled with it. The criss-crossing at the neck is gorgeous! The fit through the bodice and sleeves is tight to the body, so if you're really chesty it will be a sexier look for sure. I highly recommend this dress for the short and petite, and/or for those who sometimes find that a typical size 0/xs is too big for them. I rent and own a lot of Halston Heritage for work and play, and now wish this dress was in my closet as well!
