Fit great
I was going to wear this for a dinner out on the coast but it was raining hard and I couldn't find another opportunity to wear it. I also needed a different shoe, it was a little long to wear with my flat sandals.

Great Beach Jacket
I loved this! If was less expe sive I'd buy it strictly to keep in my spur of the moment "let's go to the beach" bag. I live in the desert and am 5-8 hours from the beach.

Oversized
Next time I'll try a S size. I tied it as tight as possible just under my bustline and that help with the deep rise. I'm 5'4" with a short waist. The length then just brushed the top of my foot with flats. I wore it 6-8 times.

Long, cozy, thick
I loved this sweater! I wore it out several times when I was running errands or a bit chilled. It's thick but not too heavy, quality knit, no pilling, long and very cozy. I'll try a smaller size next time and buy it if it fits better.

Overwhelming on petites.
I had high hopes to wear this gardening. The zipper is difficult to zip and unzip over the thicker waistband fabric. It's a quality made piece. The denim is thick and heavy. I had to cuff the ankles deeply. It was overwhelmed my 5'4" frame.

Big teddy
The teddy was too large for my frame. I wore it around the house and out to eat 4-5 times. A small would have fit better.

Silver and shiny blue!!
No for me. I used it all month. I felt like a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. It was smaller than I thought but held my bare essentials.

Beautiful but heavy
I didnt wear this beautiful cardigan. It has shiny ribbons woven throughout. It's heavy. I will try it again in a size small which will fit my frame better.

Size up!
I sized up one size to a 29 and should have ordered a 31-32? At least 2-3 sizes too small. I didn't wear it. The bell bottoms appeared very exaggerated.

Cute!
I didnt wear this cute top. It was okay over a nude bra but would be more elegant over a silk cami. I will try to order it again. It's cotton and will need some steaming.

Size down unless you like a looser fit.
I didn't wear this beautiful dress. I didn't have the appropriate belt or booties to wear with it. It's a lovely winter weight dress. It was at least one size too large on my frame.

Calloway Sweater Dress
Marie Oliver
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 4"

Bust: 32H
Soft with muted sparkle
I wore this both buttoned and open over various tops including a turtleneck. It was too low cut to wear without something underneath. I didn't have a nice camisole or I would have. It's more of a criminals mushroom color, maybe more taupe.

Metallic Knit Cardigan

Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8

Easy to dress up or down
I wore this at least twice a week, maybe more. Easy to layer or wear on its own. Bracelet sleeves and a medium-weight non-itchy wool. This is more plum than red, FYI, and the applique appear to be a heavy scrub lace.

Great fit but fabric flawed near the knee.
I discovered a fabric flaw near the knee I missed the first time I put them on. The pants are a nice weight and hugged my shape pleasantly. They were ankle length and worked with flats and heeled booties. They are a tobacco color. I hope to try them again.

Prepare to wear a cami or show-off bra!
NWT. Hugs your curves. Looks nice with a fitted black cardigan. I didn't wear it out because I didn't have an appropriate camisole or bra I wanted to show off between the fastened buttons. The print is a beautiful fire-engine red and black. True to size.

Boxy fit as expected. Not to cropped. Easy to wear, dress up or down, wear over a turtleneck, tee, blouse, dress, etc. Loved it and wore this one often.

Appeared top heavy on my busty frame
I loved this thick fair isle cardi by Ralph Lauren. The pattern was a bit much for my busty frame. It looked best worn over a cami or lower neckline top rather than a crew-neck tee, adding a scarf to the neckline helped to balance out the strong pattern.

Very cozy!
Loved this cranberry sweater! Super soft and cozy and easy to wear, I even wore it over a faux leather and shearling Levi's jacket. It was NWT but did pill slightly while wearing.

Fave handbag to date!
Perfect rich brown and woven texture. It does not clasp together and there are no inner pockets, it is also unlined. Still, I used it nearly every day because I loved the fit and look.

I bought it at a great sale price!
Loved the warmer weight and coziness. My husband loved the colors on me so I purchased it. I was able to wear it under an oversized leather jacket.

Shorter than expected!
I returned this NWT since I didn't have the right boots for the shorter length. It hit my calves at an awkward length. I ordered a medium and I may consider it again in a Large after I purchase the right boots.

The wrist length might be bracelet length on taller frames. I wore this every week and it even blended nicely with the RTR cow print mesh dress.
