Very wearable
The fit and color of this blazer make it very wearable. It's not too bright, but it's not a typical beige neutral. I wore it with slacks and accessories to make it more elevated and also more casually with jeans and a white t-shirt underneath. Great blazer for spring or summer, and great for travel because it's not linen and doesn't wrinkle too easily.

I could've sized up
I am a fan of matching blazers and trousers, and this combo does look great. I could have gone one size up for comfort. Also, the length was a tad long.

Great looking blazer
The color and cut of the blazer are really nice. It's thick and high quality, but it runs small. In the past, I've had a Reiss blazer in size 2, and it fit great. But this blazer felt tight across the shoulders. It's not a loose or oversized fit, so I'd size up.

Love them
I loved the color, softness, and fit of these jeans, but the length was too long. I had to cuff them, but because the jeans are so soft, they unfolded very easily. If you're tall, these are a winner. Maybe someday I'll buy them so I can hem them!

Great color and sharp fit
This is more burgundy than brown, which I liked. I wanted a size 2, but it wasn't available at the time, so I got a size 0. It felt tight, and I would have preferred a 2, but it still looked sharp. I would say this blazer is not oversized but true to size. If you want an oversized look, size up. It looks great with the matching slacks.

Looks great with matching blazer
I love the blazer and slacks together. Both are on the thicker side in terms of fabric, but as a result, you see no underwear lines, etc. However, I did not wear slacks on their own without the blazer.

Gorgeous skirt
This is a lovely skirt, and it pairs very well with a burgundy top and gold jewelry. The only issue is that the waist is very tight and has zero give. Size 2 was perfect in terms of length and width, but my gosh, I could hardly breathe when I wore it.

Great fit and weight to this
I did not realize at first that this is a denim blazer, but because it is so well structured and tailored, it still looks sharp with a casual edge. Only complaint is that I could not get a few wrinkles ironed out, no matter how hard I tried.

Long for me but comfortable
These jeans required me to wear either thick-soled shoes or heels, as they ran long. Color and shape are nice.

Looks great in photos
So I thought this blazer looked a little cheap when I first saw it, but it fits well, looks sharp, and shows up great in photos. I paired it with wide-leg black slacks and jeans. Felt great. Sleeves are long, though1

Boss lady but you need to own it
I really liked this blazer. Shoulders are broader than I'm comfortable with (shoulder pads), but it looked sharp and flattering. Nice quality fabric and great blue color with subtle stripes.

This is great for dances, weddings, etc., because it's petite and formal but large enough to fit a cell phone, lipstick, and keys.

Cute length, wash, and fit.
I've been wearing a lot of wide-leg and barrel cut jeans lately, so this was a refreshing change. The material is stretchy and forgiving. The cropped cut goes well with ankle boots.

Beautiful dress, unconventional cut in the sides
I thought the side cuts would work for me, as I loved the color and fit of the dress. However, I found the slits to be unflattering.

Stunning
This was gorgeous dress. I should've sized up because I could barely zip it up, but once I got in it, I felt great. It was long for me, requiring 4-inch heels. I don't recommend it for big-chested women, as I was showing quite a lot of cleavage and am a 34B.

Great winter blazer
I love the weight, color, and fit of this blazer. I normally wear a size 2, but I sized down and didn't regret it! Rented it twice so far.

Okay but not great
The fabric is nice and soft, and the fit is flattering, but I found the crotch too high to be comfortable. Also, I'm not the biggest fan of button flies. I would size up next time.

Statement blazer
I wanted to try a statement blazer in a bright color. This is a fitted blazer that looks sharp, but I should've sized up to be more comfortable (I usually wear 2 0-2 in blazers) because the arms felt tight. The color, though, is very nice — red/orange. If you plan to wear it with a long-sleeve blouse or thin sweater, I suggest sizing up. This would be great if you're giving a keynote address, a presentation, or attending an event where you want to stand out. But personally, I prefer more neutral-colored blazers with a slightly looser fit.

So easy to wear and style
I loved this shirt and wish I could keep it. Super versatile and cute. You can wear it with a t-shirt over jeans on a casual day. For work, try wearing it over a black turtleneck and black slacks with boots and statement earrings. A small size would've been too oversized for me.

Lovely color and shape
I found this dress easy to dress, or down. The color is a neutral yellow, and the stripes are subtle. Bodice is form-fitting but hits at a flattering part of the waist. I wouldn't recommend it if you're big-busted, but the straps are adjustable.

Cute, comfortable, and stylish
These fit tightly at first, as I usually wear a 26-27, but I got a 25 as recommended, and they loosen up with wear. They are comfortable and cute!

Flattering but a little busty
I got a lot of compliments on this dress. The print has that island vibe while still being subtle and versatile. I wore it to dinner on vacation, but it can be worn to a summer wedding, brunch, or a night out. I'm a 34B and looked quite busty in this, so if you're big-busted, you may feel uncomfortable.

Versatile, casual, chic simplicity
I love the fit and comfort of this dress. It's easy to pack without worrying about it wrinkling (it's cotton), has pockets, and can be dressed up with the right accessories. I wore it with heels because the dress hit at my ankles.

A great staple
Where has this jacket been all my life? White denim jackets are so useful, and this one is really cute and has just the right amount of structure and stretch. I also like how it hits at the hips for me.

A bit too cutsey
I wanted to love this, but felt a little silly when actually wearing it out. This will work if you're into cute prints and on a summer vacation, but I cannot imagine wearing it to work or out to dinner. That said, it is cute.

This sweatshirt is too short for my liking. I have a short torso and usually prefer shorter tops, but this one feels more appropriate for teens.

Great color and truly oversized
This is a casual blazer to wear with jeans and sneakers or over a black dress. It's oversized, which is cool, but a bit broader in the shoulders than I like. Color is a lovely, soft yellow. Fun way to change up your blazer game.

Classy, breezy, and elegant
I loved this dress and want to purchase it. It has a casual, unfussy, classy vibe. The cut feels fresh and modern. I don't usually like tassels and ties, but the ties on the sleeves didn't bother me at all.

Great color splash
This sweater is great for adding a pop of color to a work outfit or when going out. I wore them with wide-legged jeans and high-waisted black wide-leg slacks. Color is great for a cool summer evening since it's on the thicker side.

I wanted to like this
I wanted to like this sweater, but I didn't end up wearing it. With the shorter length sleeves and thickness make it hard to wear. If it's a cold day, your arms may feel cold. If it's a warm day, you may find yourself too hot. It's pretty though--a low plunge line, so a cami would be needed for work. Also, I should've sized up I think. Felt a bit snug.

Beautiful skirt
Of all the pleated midi skirts I've tried, this one fit the best. I like the fabric and elastic waist. I do think that pleated midi skirts look a little frumpy if not styled correctly, and you're not tall. But I wore it with a navy silk top and heels, and felt elegant.
