Cute color/pattern
I liked this dress, just not what I was looking for. The material was lighter than I expected, and the boob area wasn't very flattering. Wish it would've worked out because the color/pattern was beautiful!

Very flattering
I was surprised with how flattering the overall shape of this dress was. Similar to other reviews, the extra fabric in the stomach made it a little too awkward, so I didn't end up wearing. Wish I could've sewn it to the right shape lol!

Never want to give it back!
I am obsessed with this coat. I've had it for months and never want to give it back. It's not a really warm winter coat, but I get away with it in Atlanta. Obsessed.

Doesn't ride up!!
This dress was soooo flattering! I never wear anything tight around my hips, but gave this one a shot for my sister's rehearsal dinner. I was so surprised that it didn't ride up at all! Shoulder area was super flattering. Couldn't recommend this dress more :)

Cute pattern
I like this pattern and the bit of blue is really pretty, it was just too short for me to wear to work (I'm just under 5' 8"). It was comfortable and decently flattering, just not a work dress for me.

Such a fun brunch sweater
Loved loved loved! So cozy and comfortable. I was scared bc I usually can't wear wool, but I wore a tshirt underneath and didn't itch at all. I wore with leggings and it was the perfect length/shape. Obsessed and didn't want to return.

So incredibly flattering
I sized up in this and I'm so glad I did. The material is really nice, but not very stretchy so there's not really any give. The cut of this dress was super flattering all around!

The most flattering dress
Okay so I'm in love with this dress. Maybe a hair short if you're in a traditional office environment, but I wore it on a Friday so I kind of got away with it. The middle part is super flattering, and the layers at the bottom are a fun touch. Could be dressed up with heels or down with a jean jacket - love!!

Perfect for the dog park
We have a dog park/bar near me and this was PERFECT for a semi chilly evening. It's casual but still looks like you put effort into your outfit. I liked the oversize fit, and the functioning zipper pockets were a great size. I wore it open bc it slides up a little when you zip it, but overall an awesome jacket.

Nice and warm
Wore this to dinner with leggings and otk boots. A little scratchy but I just wore a tee underneath and it was perfect. It's an oversized fit but not unflattering. Kept me warm outside but still comfortable/ not too hot indoors.

Loved this sweater!
Way more cropped than I expected but still worked with high waisted leggings. Not scratchy, warm enough but not sweating, and fit under a leather jacket. Wore this to the mall and dinner - perfect for everything!

So sad it wasn't cold enough to wear
This jacket was so warm and amazing but sadly I live in Atlanta and it didn't get cold enough to wear. Great length and fit!

Goes great with winter blacks
Loved this bag so much. Excellent quality, and big enough to fit my phone, thin wallet, and chap stick. It was the perfect pop to all the black I tend to wear in the winter. It has a divider in the middle so nothing too thick would really fit. Perfect length and can't say enough about the quality. So many compliments!

Wear this with everything!
OBSESSED. I wore this for work, dinner, out, wedding events - literally good for everything. Keeps you warm, but breathes more than some cheaper leather jackets. Studs make it unique but are subtle enough that you don't actually have to be an 'edgy' person. Fits perfect, maybe just a hair big but I didn't mind bc it was winter and I was wearing sweaters/long sleeves under.

Cute and unique
This dress was cute, unique, and flattering. I ordered it for work but it ended up being a bit too short so it would be good for dinner/brunch or something. It wasn't scratchy or itchy at all which was a nice surprise. Turtle neck top wasn't too tight or suffocating either, so overall a great find!

Super cute - great length
These fit as if you just took your jeans out of the wash/dryer so just keep that in mind if you're between sizes. Awesome cropped length and very flattering

LOVE this jacket
Wore this to work, out, and brunch. It's perfect for everything. I live in Atlanta so I could wear this with skirts/dresses and it kept me warm enough. Not sure I would rely on it as my winter coat if I lived in like 20 and below temps.

OBSESSED with this jacket.
Just enough ~extra~ without making you feel like you can't wear it unless you're a fashion blogger. They perfect grey that goes with everything, and the maroon was just a fun little pop. Leather is so soft. I'm a true medium and the fit was perfect.

Went with backup
This dress was pretty large on me, I felt like I was swimming in it and could tell it would stretch out more throughout the night. I loved the material, but I would recommend going with the smaller of your two normal sizes. The material is thick enough to be forgiving. I didn't end up wearing it because my back up fit a little better, but it was still a beautiful material and great quality dress.

So forgiving and unique!
I absolutely loved this dress. The straps were the only part I would say ran a little tight so beware if you're well-endowed. I am a 34B and could've fit a bra, but chose not to because I didn't have any that wouldn't show. The material was thick enough that I didn't worry about looking unpolished. I didn't even have to use any tape and didn't feel worried about slipping out ever. The torso was a little large on me, but nothing so dramatic as to ruin the lines of the dress. If anything, it just meant I could actually eat my dinner. I was scared the white stripe around the hips would be too tight or unflattering but that was definitely not the case, it rested perfectly without cutting into me. I am almost 5' 8" and wore 4in heels and the dress was about an inch above the ground so people weren't stepping on it and I wasn't tripping. Overall amazing dress!

Really comfortable
The cut wasn't as low as it is in the picture, and the bust was a little stretched out so it didn't hug my ribs like I would have liked, but it was a really comfortable and classy dress that got compliments nonetheless

Wear it backwards!
It's a stretchy material so I ended up wearing the smaller of my two sizes because many people wearing it had stretched it out. I highly recommend wearing it backwards so it's not so close to your neck, but that's just a personal preference. It didn't ride up and was a heavy enough material to smooth everything out and was extremely flattering. Endless compliments all night from girls and guys alike.
