LOVE but size down
I own more VB than is probably healthy so I know their sweaters usually run quite small. Not this one. I got a medium but I really needed the small. I made it work anyway because I absolutely loved this.

Didn't wear, sizing is all wrong
Couldn't wear at all as this top runs huge. Size down.

Swimsuit cover-up, not a skirt
This is definitely not for everyday wear. This is a swimsuit cover-up and that's about it. Didn't wear.

Hated this top
First off, this top is gigantic and EXTREMELY low cut. I have no idea who sized this thing, but it is horrible. I only wore once and I wore under a blazer. I had to twist the straps over and over to pull the neck line WAY up and then I had to tuck in the back just to make it look decent. 10/10 do not recommend. I got a medium and I'm 5'1 138# for comparison.

Nothing special
I almost bought this sweater in another color ahead of a vacation but I'm glad I didn't. It's an okay sweater but there isn't really anything special about it. It's not overly itchy for a wool sweater but I do advise wearing a thin t-shirt underneath.

Great VB staple!
I own a dozen or so VB jackets so it was nice to add a new one into the mix, even if temporarily. I used one of my VB Dickey's with the jacket and wore it to the office with jeans. Love the 3/4 sleeve. If you don't own any Veronica Beard jackets you need to know the arms run very small. If you have bigger or muscular arms, you may need to size up. Enjoy!

Great jacket!
Great jacket. I've worn several times so far, dressed up as well as dressed down with sneakers. The fur around the neck is pretty warm so if you run hot like I do, it can be a little much. Would rent again.

Gorgeous dress!
Got to wear on vacation in Switzerland to the Opera House. Sadly we had to cancel our trip and I never actually wore it. It's so lovely and fabulous, but tight. If you don't love form fitting, order a size up.

Nice, extremely lightweight puffer jacket
This is a great early fall jacket. You definitely cannot wear below 50 degrees. I ordered a large thinking I would need the room to put something underneath but that was not the case. I should have ordered a medium and it would have been fine. I never actually wore but I did like it, just not in December.

Arms/Shoulders kill the dress
I'm all for a little "poof" in the shoulder but this was awful. I love Black Halo but this was a no-go for me and sent back immediately. Also, go up 1-2 sizes above your regular size so you don't look stuffed into this dress.

Great dress with a pop of flare!
Wore this dress to a fancy dinner in Paris. The details are just lovely and I really enjoyed wearing the dress. I wore Spanx arm-tights underneath because it was 30 degrees and it was definitely a good choice but also worked well with the dress.

Awesome jacket, so stylish and festive
Wore to the Cabaret in Paris. I'd give it 5 stars but the sequin placement on the collar is awful and scratched the hell out of me all evening. Aside from that, it was fabulous. Paired with a black bodysuit and Spanx leather-like pants and some patent pumps. Lots of compliments from our group!

Runs small, not the least bit soft
Nothing special here. I think it runs small and it's not soft or all that comfortable. Wore once and packaged up for return.

Itchy and short, tight sleeves
I hated this sweater from the moment I put it on and sent it back without ever wearing it. The fit is terrible and it itches so badly. Hard pass.

I ended up not wearing this dress to the party afterall.
This dress is very form fitted so please know that before you order it. If you're on the edge of S/M you should probably go with the medium. There isn't really anything wrong with this dress other than the color wasn't really for me and I didn't have a bra that I could wear with it because of how it's cut at the top (I generally don't wear strapless either).

I ended up not going to the event afterall
I was really disappointed in this dress. First off, the sleeves were way too long and therefore the cut outs in the shoulders fit me all wrong. I have BIG shoulders too as I'm a competitive athlete and it just didn't work with how low the cut outs actually came down on my shoulders. The material also felt very cheap and considering it's a Rachel Roy, that's pretty disappointing. When I tried it on my boyfriend said "wow it looks great" and as I walked closer to him he said "nevermind, it looks weird." Sad times.
