Gorgeous Fabric!
This fabric is gorgeous, comfortable (seriously, maybe the most comfortable dress I've ever worn!)! I sized up because that was all that was available and thought I would try it! The waist is elastic and sat too high (inches above my natural waist) - which gave the appearance of pregnancy. (Would make a great maternity dress!) Also, the bow/belt is built-in. Great for never loosing it and it staying in place - except, I would have probably bought the dress if I could have moved the belt down to my waist. Amazing dress! If you have the right frame for this dress - it will be your favorite!

Gold Pleated Midi Dress
Badgley Mischka

The waist band was very tight.
I sized up to a 20 (normally 16/33) - sized up thinking that would guarantee the pants would fit (even if a little too loose). The paints sit high-waisted and was still very tight that sitting would be uncomfortable. The hips, thighs, etc. were generous - which is usually my problem area. Length was also a little long for my height. They touched the ground would have required at least a kitten heel. This length + pattern made them look like pajama pants if you didn't see they were zip-up with a waistband. Didn't wear. But wanted to. The pics are so cute!

Perfect Skirt! (Just needs a longer lining)
Sorry for the odd photo - but wanted to show the lining. It is very short - and since the Skirt is so sheer I would have had to be as conscious in the office as wearing a mini skirt. Luckily brought a slip on my work trip and it was all okay. Otherwise - perfect skirt! Very comfortable. And loved renting this trendy snake skin pattern for fall! Would probably buy it if it was fully lined!

The best!
Love this top and have worn it several times! Very comfortable and flattering - can dress up or wear with jeans. (Runs large, but love the comfort of the larger size!)

Awkward Fit
Top straps very loose ... and while peplums are usually flattering on me, this hit awkward and stood out so much I looked waaayyyy larger.
Garden Posy Top

Size Worn: XXL
Usual Size: 16

Fun & Flattering!
Loved this and so many compliments! It was a little long, but not too long with kitten heels and blousing the top more above the belt. Two notes: 1. VERY low cut and must have a camisole! 2. Thin and needs a slip Would absolutely rent again!

Very, very small!
Too small and didn't wear. Typically wear a 14/16 and XL - got an XXL because of the reviews to size up. Even though it is knit, it is VERY fitted and an XXL fit me like a M/L. Even spanx wouldn't help - ha!

Waist hits odd ...
Love the concept of this dress - but the waist elastic did not hit in a flattering way.

Most compliments ever!
Love this dress! Very flattering and fun! *the front v is a little low when combined with the narrow shoulders. double-stick tape did the trick, though!

Comfortable Travel Pants!
Love these pants! Wore these on a work travel day - they were extremely comfortable, don't wrinkle and I felt "put together" all day. I sized up so they would be less fitted - they were very loose and fit like a true xxl. (And xl in this brand is usually too tight. Think I could actually wear an xl if I wanted it a little less loose.) Considering buying these ... love!

Cute Skirt - Odd Fit
Very cute skirt - material is very 'flowy' yet gave my hourglass figure a very boxy feel. The gathers at the middle actually highlighted every bump and made me look larger. (was hoping it would hide more. :))

Very cute! Wore it with white jeans and pink/red stripe sandals - very fun and got lots of complimen
. It is long enough you can easily tie it in the front and it not be too short. (It runs large! I normally wear an XL in kate spade - and this fit like an XXL or larger!)
