Comfortable and easy to dress up or down
I wore this to a welcome party for a wedding I was attending as well as a winery weekend for a bachelorette party. The material was very comfortable to wear all day. I love the long, sheer sleeves and thought the length of the shorts was perfect, although if I was much taller it would have been a tad short. The buttons weren't too difficult to have to do to get on/off for the bathroom.

Cute dress but difficult sizing
I ordered this in two sizes and probably sat right between them proportionally. The top is a little large but the ribcage is a little tight to zip. The overall dress was beautiful and fun for a black tie optional wedding.
Sleeveless Tiered Ruffle Gown
Ieena for Mac Duggal
Size Worn: 10R

Comfortable but attractive jumpsuit
This jumpsuit was comfortable and flattering. I loved the thickness of the material and the subtle sparkle of the stripes in the material. My only complaint was it was quite long for me - I had to wear heeled boots for it to not drag on the ground.

Comfortable and flattering sweater
This sweater was more versatile than I expected. I wore it to work and out to dinner a few times. It paired really well with black jeans. I’d definitely rent again in the fall or winter!
Striped Crewneck Sweater

Size Worn: M

Cute and comfortable dress
I definitely thought this dress would look matronly but it really didn't. Great fabric and style, and fit perfectly. Wore this out to dinner a few times. Material had enough stretch to be comfortable but still held its shape.
Pleated Midi Shirt Dress

Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 5"

Cute and comfortable
This shirt was great to wear to work and out to dinner. The cami was a little small underneath so tended to ride up a bit under the shirt, but otherwise I loved the look and fit of the top!

Great look and fit
This dress was super comfortable and honestly looked better in person than it did in photos. I ended up pinning the top closed but it wasn’t terrible without a pin. I packed the dress in a suitcase and it didn’t wrinkle which also surprised me

I wore this to a wedding and got several compliments on it. It was really comfortable and the material was great for a fall wedding.
Spring Bouquet Dress
kate spade new york
Size Worn: M

Comfortable, flattering, and versatile
This shirt surprised me. It was super comfortable but also surprisingly flattering (I expected it to be more "boxy"). I wore it out for casual dinners as well as to the office.

basic sweatshirt, size up for more comfortable fit
It's a pretty basic sweatshirt. If you want a roomier sweatshirt feel, I definitely recommend sizing up at least one size. It also is cut a bit cropped and therefore fit a bit boxy, but it was comfortable and I did like the subtle tie dye.

Comfortable and flattering
This top was comfortable, flattering, and very cute. I wore it to two separate tailgate/college football games and liked that it was light enough for warm weather but could easily be dressed up with a cardigan if needed.

Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8

Cute and comfortable
This dress was extremely comfortable and can be dressed up or down. It runs a little large but not in a way that makes it look shapeless or frumpy. I wore to a casual dinner and didn't feel over or under dressed.

Easy comfortable romper
It was a bit large up top so I had to pin it closed, but otherwise this was a comfortable romper to wear around during the day.

Comfortable and flattering
I needed a dress for a holiday work party. I was intrigued by the velvet but wasn't sure how flattering the material or puffy sleeves would be. I tried it on and loved it! The material is thick, the waist hits in the right place with some extra room in the hips, and the sleeves add a little extra shape to the dress. The opening in the back was fun but still allowed me to wear a regular bra. Would definitely recommend this for a winter event.

Fun, comfortable dress that can be dressed up or down
The cut of the dress is very flattering and the material is very comfortable. I wore it out to dinner with white sneakers and feel the dress can be dressed up or down as needed. I also loved the sleeves! The only negatives had to do with the buttons all the way up/down the dress. It was kind of tedious to have to do/undo so many to get it off and on, and when I sat down, some of the buttons pulled towards the bottom of the dress so I just had to be mindful how I sat. Probably only an issue with curvier women, but worth considering!

Helena Dress

Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8

Cute but comfortable dress
This dress was super cute and great for a day out! It fit fairly loose, so if you prefer a tighter fitting dress you likely want to size down. It was cut a bit lower than I expected, but I put a safety pin right above the top button and it worked out perfectly.

Floral Button Wrap Dress
Madewell

Usual Size: 8

Bust: 34C
Comfortable, cute, and easy
I have a body shape that usually does not suit rompers well, but I took a chance on this and am so glad that I did! I am usually between a M and L and went with the L. The M likely would have fit, but the L had a comfortably loose fit. I wore this on a walking tour, and it remained light and comfortable all day. All of the buttons in the front made it difficult to use the bathroom, but that's an issue with rompers in general.

Cute, unique top that can be dressed up or down
This is a super cute top which could be dressed down with black shorts or dressed up with jeans and heels. I got many compliments, and the actual fit of the shirt was very comfortable and true to size.

Leopard Ella Top

Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 5"
Bust: 34C
Cute top but not right fit for me
The top itself was very cute and comfortable, but it fit a little boxy. It was tight enough in the chest that I don't think I could have gone down a size to try to make it a little less boxy in the waist. For people with a smaller chest and shorter torso, this may have looked cute, it just wasn't the right style for me.

Comfortable, flattering, and beautiful dress
I have worn this dress several times and have received numerous compliments! The style of the dress is very flattering and comfortable and the pattern is beautiful. It is a little shorter than I expected, so I have only worn it with flats/sandals, but otherwise love the fit and look of the dress. There are snaps between the buttons which helps make sure there are no issues with gapping.

Jemma Dress
Parker
Size Worn: M

Comfortable, beautiful, highly complimented
I received the most compliments I have probably ever received in my life. Everyone from our friends, to the bride and groom, and even random people walking by me all stopped to comment at how stunning this dress is. The fit was true to size, and the length in the back was perfect on me (5’5”) with a 3” heel. The material is thick but not too hot, and the fabric looks even more beautiful in person than it does in pictures. It also has large pockets!

Comfortable, flattering, and many compliments
This dress was very comfortable and I received so many compliments on it. The length was perfect for me with 3-4" heels (I am 5'5") and the colors were so vibrant. It also has pockets and the material was sturdy enough that putting my phone in my pocket didn't pull the dress down. It ran true to size for me, but definitely had some room in the ribcage/chest. If it was strapless, I may have had to pull it up a few times. I think if you have a larger rib cage or chest that it is absolutely true to size; smaller chested ladies likely want to size down. I will say (as other reviews do) the zipper is a little tricky, but I found that zipping it up and down a few times before putting the dress on helped. I was able to actually zip it on my own, but if you have an extra pair of hands to help you it shouldn't be too difficult!

Comfortable and stylish dress
This dress was extremely comfortable, but dressy enough for my formal holiday party. The material was soft and flowed around me, making it very easy to move around in this dress. The slit up the side was an added touch to allow for more movement. With the open back and lace front, you can't wear a bra with this dress, but it provided enough lining and was tight enough up top that this was not an issue for me. I'm average height, and the length of the regular was perfect to wear with heels. If you are a taller woman, I'd recommend going with the long if you want to wear heels. My only complaint was the zipper was not super cooperative over the band portion on the back of the dress. That being said, it's entirely possible it was only an issue w the specific dress I received, and not with the dress in general.
