Great summer dress
I brought this to wear on a summer vacation in France. It's a light dress for hot days, thin but lined, and comfortable for walking around doing touristy things. Looks great with both sneakers and sandals, and you can wear a bra with it.

Classic
Rented this for a wedding. Fit well and had a great, classic look. I usually wear a size 0 in dresses, but the size 2 fit me well for this style.

Cute
The sleeves were a little short on this, but I thought it was a cute prairie style shirt. (Definitely a "for the girls" shirt though - my husband wasn't a fan and thought it looked frumpy.)

Obsessed
I loved this jumpsuit! It was so easy to wear and looks so stylish and put together without any effort at all. I wore it with heels and a blazer for dinner, and sandals for a casual lunch. I would've kept it if it wasn't so expensive to buy.

Really cute
This is a super cute slip dress that can be dressed up or down. It fit like a glove. Usually this style looks kind of weird on my body type (petite with small chest), but I felt like it hugged in the right places and gave me some shape even with the slip silhouette. The fabric felt thin and lower quality - I wish there was lining - but the print is busy enough that you can still wear it without a bra.

Just okay
The material is easy to wrinkle and kind of coarse. It also run a little big.

Unflattering
I rented this b/c of the rave reviews, but it was not flattering on at all. Maybe it's better on women with bigger chests to fill it out, but it made my boobs look saggy and floppy. You can even see how awkward it looks from the model photo. The back is kind of cute, but the front is not sexy AT ALL.

Very cute and comfy
Great for petite women. It's just the right length with a pair of high waisted jeans. Very forgiving cut and flattering. Too low cut for work, but a great, tasteful casual weekend look.

Cute
This top fit fine but was just borderline too precious for me - it kind of flares out and ruffles at the bottom in an adorable way but shapeless way. Cute but just not really my style!

Cute summer dress
This is a cute casual summer dress. Love the burnt orange color and the fabric is good quality, though it wrinkles easily. The top of the dress fit a little awkwardly on me (it bunched up in the back), but it wasn't bad enough to be unwearable. I'm small chested and the dress did run a little large on top, but I wore a strapless bra and it was fine.

Cute and flattering for petite ladies
I was pleasantly surprised at how flattering this was on my petite / straight frame. A great cut and you can wear a bra with it. The midi length did not look awkward as some midi dresses do - I think because it has the uneven hem, the length will work whether you're short or tall. The straps were a tad long and wanted to fall down, but I fixed it down with double sided tape.

Runs very small
I loved the style of this dress and the fabric is kind of linen-y, so it feels appropriate for a summer wedding. However, the sizing is pretty off: I usually wear size 0 (or UK 4 for this brand). I rented a UK 6 (US 2) and couldn't zip it up past one rib (and I have a small frame and chest). But I think if I went a size or two up, the bottom would be too big and the length too long. If you do give it a try, order at least two sizes up.
