Honestly a bit garish
The photos for this purse don't really show how very sparkly/glittery it is. I liked the zip detailing around the edges but ultimately this purse was a bit flashy for me.

So beautiful, I may buy them
Gorgeous earrings. Very elegant, a good statement size without being unwieldy, and I think they'd go with a variety of outfits.

Lovely colour, nice and warm
Rented this coat for an outdoor winter wedding in the Sierra Nevadas. It was unseasonably cold on the day, but this coat kept me warm the whole time (with a little assistance from heat lamps lol). I'd say this coat runs a bit big through the body, but the shoulders were the right size and I'm very consistently an XS in jackets/tops/coats. I made the body of the coat look a little more streamlined/fitted just by tying the belt at my back rather than the front and it looked really nice.

Shiny but not especially cute
Love the sequins on this dress, but the boatneck is surprisingly not cute. It's an oddly anachronistic and conservative detail given the dress material and length is very trendy. I think it might have looked better if it had been a crew neck (a bit of futurism to match the sequins?). Also, the arm scyes are cut very severely. Combined with the minimal-stretch fabric, it makes for an uncomfortable wearing experience.

Awful
Like wearing a wool picnic blanket. These pants are mostly just bulky and unflattering.

Not for petite people
I'm 5'3", 120 lbs and this dress made me look dowdy. :/ sucks because I really liked the usually texture of the dress, but mostly I just looked like Beetlejuice's mother.

Cute dress! (but not if you have no boobs)
This dress is very cute--it's probably one of the few dresses I've liked the high-low hemline on. It fits true to size through the waist (my measurements are 31-26-36, 5'3" 120lbs), but gaps enormously through the bust. To be fair to this dress, I am a AA cup so very few strapless dresses work for me and this dress wasn't an exception. I didn't end up wearing it for obvious reasons, but the fabric is lovely and the style is surprisingly playful.

Beautiful, but not for A-cups
This is a gorgeous dress. The overall fit is true to size, but the only problem is that it isn't well-suited to small-chested people. I knew this would be an issue when I rented it (the curse of an AA/A cup), but it was so beautiful i had to try it. I was hopeful that some kind of tape+the right bra magic might help, but alas. Didn't end up wearing it.
