A cool design in theory, but not in function
I wanted to love this bag, but it's just too small to be functional, and I found the top to be annoying. I think ultimately it isn't cute enough to warrant the lack of functionality.

The perfect work to brunch dress!
I'm obsessed with this dress - the color and pattern are adorable, and perfect for a winter-y dress in a not-to-cold climate. I wore with knee high boots and tights, and a leather jacket to work and to brunch, and got compliments in both settings! This is nipped at waist so despite loose fit, it's still flattering. For those with a little extra weight in lower tummy I'd size up or wear with spanx. My husband loved it so much he told me to buy it (and that never happens, ha!).

Not everything I had hoped for, but still a nice jacket
I was excited about this jacket - the reviews were good and it promised to be the boyfriend jacket I had been searching for, perfect for a work trip. It was just ok. The cut is baggy, which is the style, and it is very soft and comfortable. I thought it ended up being a little too unstructured to be flattering, and while it could have been improved with a belt over top, the 6 was too big for me to do that. I think sizing down may have helped with fit and made it possible to belt, so there'd be more options.

So many compliments on this Pelosi-esque power jacket!
The power jacket is in again, and this is the perfect update - a slight cocoon silhouette without being too baggy, clean details, and a color that is attention grabbing without being obnoxious. I am usually a size 6 but was comfortable in a 4. I want to buy this jacket I love it so much!

Cute top for casual night out
I loved wearing this top with high waisted jeans - it's flattering and the print & cut are fun.

Not flattering on someone with hips
I have a small-ish waist and larger hips so I was hoping this skirt would be flattering, but because of where the slit hits it hugs your curves and then bells out at the top of the slit, making it an unflattering silhouette. In theory a great cut for curvy women, sans slit (or with a lower slit). I didn't risk sizing up, but a cute skirt for more athletic/narrow builds!
