Awesome dressy casual blazer
Fabulous color, heavy weight fabric that is casual but the style and buttons dress it up. Loved it, would have bought it if it wasn’t so expensive.

Perfect everyday bag
Small but holds all of the important things. Great to carry as crossbody or with small handles. And love the magnetic closure. I hate zipping or fastening bags so this was so easy to use and stayed closed. Almost bought it

Pretty red staple
I kept this for a couple months because it was perfect for layering especially for Christmas and then Valentine’s Day. I little small in the hips but i wore it tucked in so you couldn’t tell. Would have bought it if it wasn’t so expensive because it’s just a great closet staple and neckline very flattering.

unique dress and great color
wore to a party in las vegas, wore the smaller size since both were form fitting but the larger was too big in the chest. I did not like the cross strap though, it dug into my neck, and since the Strap doesn't actually hold the dress up, I wish it was a little longer and looser. liked the dress but wouldn't rent again

Gorgeous
Loved the thick fabric and the elegance. Could have worn my normal size but it wasn’t available. The only funky think is a slit up the back. Would be much better in the front! A front slit is so sexy, but who want on on the back???

Nice dress but didn’t love it
Didn’t wear this one, the fabric is nice but it felt like too much weight on one small thin shoulder strap. And I just didn’t like the look of too much bare back.

Bridesmaid or mother of the bride style
Pretty dress but the bow/sash felt too bridesmaid-ish. And the folds of the sash didn’t lay right and seemed too low.

beware zipper
got many compliments at work, wore with hot pink skinny belt and blazer. Did have a wardrobe malfunction, front zipper opened spontaneously once (and I wore it to work all day several times, so not sure why it just dropped at that time but stayed in place the rest of the time).

missed the mark
love the fabric and could be so cute but there is just too much fabric below the waist. Also too short for my taste and the slit in the front makes it worse

Strange fit
Fabric attracts all lint, hair, etc, so looks shabby. Also it is strangely snug in the shoulders and boxy/baggy in the body. It is warm though and the fur on the hood is very pretty.

Thick fabric but very snug and not soft. Also the collar ruffle did not stay up nor is it long enough to fold over so just looked awkward

Love this so much! It's a show stopper. Fabric is heavier than it appears, so it's warmer than a typical trench coat. Would buy if it wasn't so expensive.

wish the rainbow stripe was more prominent, its the cutest thing about this, otherwise just plain
fit is a little tight in the hips but baggy in the waist, draw string in back is ugly, and makes it look bulkier

Love this bag! The actual bag I received is a bit worn and misshapen, but very soft gorgeous leather. Great large size without looking large and bulky. Wish I could afford to buy it!!

great fit!
Wow, this fits beautifully! I have difficulty with skirts because me mom pooch sticks out and I have a large bottom, so most skirts look terrible from the side even with spanx. This fabric is just thick and stretchy enough that it tucks my belly in nicely and feels comfortable. Wish it was more work appropriate! It is short and would wear tights, but the prominent front zipper just doesn't look very professional. Great for casual or night out though!
