Love the colors, but it's a bulky fit
I might go down a size. I got the small and it was fine but bulkier than I normally wear. I did get compliments on the color scheme.

Maybe I should have kept it
I was on the fence with buying this one. Really easy way to elevate your look.

Easy everyday blue jeans
I don't wear a lot of blue jeans. I have a sea of black and grey jeans, and so my son lit up when he saw me in these. Which is why I am buying them - for my son's happiness. Haha. I have shorter legs, so these hit right at my ankle, and there's no waist gap. I do wish they flattered my butt more, but that's why these are cheaper than a pair of Mother jeans.....

Not as fitted around the hips and waist as I'd hoped
I was expecting more structure but these are soft jeans that just have a loose, very comfy fit. Wore them 4 times in 2 weeks since they're very practical and easily flexed from forest hike to city streets. I tried to wear with boots but I think trainers are a better look.

Cute summer dress but tight in bust
Got a lot of compliments when wearing this babydoll dress to an outdoor happy hour. Great cotton fabric for breathability on a hot day, and the length was right for my height (5' 5"). But I'm a bit busty so it was tighter around the rib cage than I'd anticipated when trying to get it on. Once on, it was fine.

Sexy Saltburn-style sophistication
Chose this for my birthday party at a very old Scottish farmhouse that is now beautifully decorated boutique hotel run by a whiskey brand. The moody, opulent interior kind of demands something more Saltburn sophisticated and less milkmaid pretty. The black velvet material with gemstone-colored shapes is luxurious yet forgiving, the sleeves are voluminous yet elegant, and the V-line collar is very revealing - so wear a bra or fashion tape.

Meh. It's a bit like wearing a sack.
I should have known better. The billowy prairie dress is not my normal silhouette to wear. It just hung on me and the size 1 is a bit bigger than I anticipated. Also, the ditzy print is actual a green and blue with red flecks, not grey like the image suggests.

Pretty top but lots of volume
SEA sizing seems to be rather generous. I am usually between a 6 and an 8, but got the medium and it was huge. I think an XS would have been a better fit for me. The stitching is lovely though, and it's very airy for hot days. I wore it to a Pride event with black wide-leg pants and got several compliments.

So large I was swimming in it
Which is funny because I wore it to a pool party.... I'd say it's easily 1-2 sizes larger than it needs to be. Just wasn't that flattering on me, although the construction and floral appliqués are very pretty. Just be sure to order at LEAST one size down. I got the small and had a good 6 inches of extra fabric at the back.
