Cute summer look.
Great material. Fun summer dress. A little low cut for work.

My favorite summer dress
Easy fit. Very fun fabric. Lots of compliments

Fiesta And Scatter Ava Dress
Leota
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Adorable but too short for spring/summer
I could wear this length with tights and boots but too short for bare legs or sheer hose on this middle aged woman.

Navy Dylan Dress
Tanya Taylor

Cute but tight
Loved the style but a bit tight especially in chest

Green Circle Dress

Super cute but ran small for Kate Spade
I have worn lots of Kate Spade in L but this was too small

Houndstooth Ponte Dress

Size Worn: NONE

Fine but not completely special
It was fun to take off the tag of a garment from Paris but I think this is more for warmer weather. I wore to a Mardi Gras party in early March.

Inland Tweed Jacket
Iro
Size Worn: 44
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Unflattering for Apple Shape
I found this very unflattering around the hips even in XL. Did not wear.

Black Stiched Knit Dress
Alexia Admor
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Too small
I'm between a 12 and 14 and wear both depending on the designer but this 12 was WAY too small.

Floral Clusters Nyla Dress

Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"

Everyone says this runs large but I found it small
I have worn several KateSpade tops and the L fits perfectly and looks great. I have even purchased a Kate Spade top in L. I have found with the Kate Spade dresses, though, that the L is too small and unflattering. That's how this dress was. The L fit in the waist but was bizarrely tight and unflattering in the bust. I'm really disappointed bc I love the dress and Kate Spade in general.

Mod Plaid Sweater Dress

First Tory Burch piece I have worn
This was super cute and flattering tho I am between L and XL and needed the XL here. Not sure how Tory usually runs since this is my first piece.

Jeanne Sweater Dress
Tory Burch
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Cute but a bit too girly
This is a cute sweater and I wore it three times. I know that Kate Spade's "thing" is to be fun and girly but I ultimately decided that this didn't exactly feel "grown up."

Poppy Embroidered Sweater
kate spade new york
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Too small and fabric too light for February
These are spring/summer pants. I'm between a 12 and 14 and 12 was just slightly too tight.

Navy Plaid Trousers

Nothing special
Runs smallish. Pretty but nothing special.

Floral Nadia Top
La Vie Rebecca Taylor
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"

Unflattering
Shows every bump and bulge even with Spanx.

Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 14

Great work dress
I am between size 14 and 12 so was thrilled that the 12 fit. So it might run a little big. I wore it with a short black jacket, tights, and boots.

Long Sleeve Plaid Dress
Rebecca Taylor NYC
Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Adorable dress
Great fit overall. Fine length for me since I'm 5'4". The only issue is that there is a big vertical crease in the lower center of the dress that you can sort of see in the photo. I assumed at first that it was from the way it was packed in the shipping bag, but I tried to iron it and it would not go away. Still loved wearing the dress.

Jacquard Shift Dress
sita murt
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"

Didn't look good around waist.
I'm between a 12 and 14 and the largest size for this is 12. It fit fine at the top but was unattractive around the waist.

Structured Stretch Tweed Jacket
Rebecca Taylor NYC
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Not as flattering as others from same designer
I have worn another Badgely Mishka dress and found it very flattering. This one was tighter around the middle and not as forgiving for Apple shapes. Nice fabric and style for a winter work dress.

Charcoal Flannel Dress
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: 14
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Pretty jacket but awkward neckline
This is a beautiful burgundy fabric. I found the neckline awkward because unless you wore a turtleneck all you see is the top of the jacket. I tried wearing it partially unzipped to show black shell and necklace but it looked awkward. Also awkward unzipped. Runs large.

Burgundy Tweed Jacket
Slate & Willow
Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"

Great work dress
Adorable plaid dress with unique sleeves. Flattering. Wore with tights and boots.

Grey Plaid Shift

Size Worn: 14
Usual Size: 14

Adorable and great for work or casual
I wore this to work with a skirt and boots and out with black pants. Loved it so much I bought it.

Great shape and fit
I really liked the style and shape of this blouse but decided that I don't like the colors of the floral pattern. The pink just kept feeling like an old lady color (and yes I know I am middle aged.)

Larisa Boat Neck Blouse
B Collection by Bobeau
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 38D
Cute dress with tights and boots
I am 5'4" and had to wear a camisole underneath because the top was so low cut. It is winter and I have worn it a couple of times but it is thin material (though it is lined) and really not meant for cold weather

Beautiful top but too big for me.
The sent me the XL/16 which is my backup size. It was WAY too big overall and way too low cut in front. I will get a smaller one because loved the blouse.

Floral Clusters Clio Top
Tanya Taylor
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"

Pretty pattern and design. Too long for me.
This is very pretty at the top and the material and colors are great but I am 5'4" and found it too long to be a shirt and too short to be a tunic. When you tuck it in, the lovely covered buttons at the bottom of the shirt show as bumps underneath your pants or skirt which is not attractive.

Cool blouse but sleeves too long.
I am 5'4" and often find that sleeves in blouses and jackets are too long. I had to fold the cuffs up, thereby losing some of the cool detailing that makes the shirt special. Still enjoyed wearing it and received compliments.

Too sheer, low, and casual for work
My regular size is 14 but I received my backup size of 16 which was too low and overall too big. I wore it anyway to a casual work event because it is so pretty. Needed a cami underneath due to low neckline. Front length overall is lower than back which makes it look boxy. Pretty top but not great on me.

This was not for me with a short torso.
For someone with a short torso, the front of this was way too low. I also found the material too thin for this transitional season. I would see this as more of a spring/summer dress.
