Ended up loving but hard to figure out
Took way too long to figure out the buttons but it is different and striking and drapes well. It was a little oversized & v long especially in back.

So cute and flattering!!
Very striking dress that flatters- the cutout looks edgy but barely shows skin. Pretty and easy to wear

Great for a spring reception at a Museum :)
Fluttery and fun, comfortable to wear. Seemed true to size for me, I wore a size 8, the only cinch is the waist, hits at the knee (I'm almost 5'9"). Great whimsical dress for a reception for the author of the new biography of Bunny Mellon!

Cute and striking dress!
Rented this for a baby shower but turns out people were going super casual, so I didn't end up wearing it. It's a pretty dress though, great pattern

Cute skirt
It's a nice skirt but if you have wide hips/thighs it gets a little precarious walking, the front slit goes too high. If you are pretty slim and have narrow hips it probably would be better for work situations. Wider hips, sexier front slit because the skirt will open more.. Didn't wear it!

I wish they didnt make you write anything in here :)
It's a cute shirt I just wish I could put 5 starts without writing anything so I wouldn't be deterred from reviewing :)

Adds coolness to a casual outfit!
True to size (somewhat relaxed fit) short jacket, comfortable and cute. You can tighten the bottom string to make it smaller if you have narrower hips

Really cute shirt, Adds a nice pop of color but looks classy
Great quality, almost like a lace so I wore a black cami under it. I wore it with a pencil skirt and a blazer @ work.

Gorgeous, silky fabric that flows in the breeze! A great resort dress if you need a demure option.
Beautiful dress for resort and dinners out in Morocco (where women cover up more). I am saying it runs large because it is a super forgiving, A-line cut with ornamental shoulders and a stretchy waistband, that I think overall a petite person would be swimming in! I'm almost 5'9" and sometimes wear 10s on the bottom and a 6 fit perfectly. Lots of compliments on the color and fabric. Has a slit up the front to mid thigh.

Fantastic bag, attractive cut and very sturdy
Attractive yet very understated bag in a very sturdy suede with a zipper angled to the inside or outside depending on how you wear it-a PERFECT travel handbag. I brought it as a carryon on my flights and felt comfortable carrying it in very busy and unfamiliar areas because it is not gaudy and has the sort of hidden/tilted zipper design.

Great blazer-it has a lot of structure and has a cool cut on the arms and back. AND doesn't wrinkle!
Very flattering, no cons! Again, it is a fabric that doesn't really wrinkle so that is a plus when traveling. I had it in the garment bag to travel and at each hotel when other stuff in the garment bag was wrinkled, this jacket was perfectly crisp looking.

This is a fantastic jumpsuit! Got so many compliments from lots of people
It is good for an hourglass figure because of the elegant draping and ties. So fun to wear.

This is an amazing dress and weirdly is extremely flattering on everyone.
I've rented this multiple times for different things - bachelorette party, birthday, wedding. I would buy it but can't find it anywhere. I'm almost 5'9" and a size 6 or 8 so I got an extra large and that fit nicely. I don't like wearing really tight things though. I also let a couple friends try it on and they wanted to buy it too. It's just really flattering and sexy without being too tight or skanky looking. The picture is my friend who tried it on and really liked it. She's 5'9" ish too.

I liked the color and silhouette of this clutch. I wore it with the shoulder chain.
It's a cute bag but is kind of cumbersome. At one point the clip holding the chain came undone so I dropped it spectacularly, and at one point it came open even though I hadn't stuffed it really full or anything. Awkward.
