Larger than expected, a little dull
I was very excited about this bag but just did not like it. Carried it shopping one day and then returned. Was a little too large and something about the hardware was a little too basic. Also this is very much a cross-body. I prefer to wear bags on my shoulder and the straps didn't really suit themselves to that.

Forgiving a-line, nice material
A little more conservative than I wanted for a Brooklyn wedding so didn't wear. Beautiful dress is you have the right occasion. Came just about to my knees. The a-line was fuller than expected and the shoulders a little large in the 6. I'm a pair shape, usually between a 4 and 6 in fuller skirts like this.

Too short for wedding but so cute for night out
This dress is beautiful. High quality and such an interesting cut. A little snug in the hips (I'm a pear shape usually between a 6 and 8 in fitted skirts) but the fabric is thick so really didn't feel uncomfortable or look obscene.

Dress is worn but very flattering
This dress is very flattering and offers some stretch. Overall true to size but I would go with a size down for backup. I have small shoulders and the lace wasn't structured enough to stand up on its own so had to return without wearing because the lace sagged around my collarbone. Overall this dress is pretty shabby up close but is probably fine from a distance.

Beautiful everyday dress
This dress has an easy fit with a drawstring waist so the size is pretty adaptable. I'm usually between a 4 and a 6 in fuller skirts and the 4 fit perfectly. The material is so nice and light that despite the long sleeves this was comfortable in 95 degree weather. On the short side - I'm 5'7" with long legs - but still appropriate for family functions or everyday, not work.

Great dress, didn't work for my body type
This dress fit true to size, maybe a bit on the large side. I ended up returning because it was slightly too long in the torso and the way it's cut, that was not forgiving. I do have a short torso so it would probably work on most frames. It was very flattering in the hips and rear. Probably too short for work (I'm 5'7") but personally the print is too much to wear to work anyway. The color is great and overall it's a very comfortable yet interesting piece for everyday.

Lovely bag, not quite large enough for work
The bag was just slightly too small for my 13" HP to fit comfortably. It's pretty basic but does have a nice structure and good quality pebbled leather.
