Doesn’t lay correctly
Perhaps I ordered too big (I wear a 6 in tops and got a M). The shirt was just limp and didn’t lay well. It needed some starch or something. I sent back without wearing.

One of my favorites
I absolutely love this dress. I have worn it to church, to a Christmas party, and just out for the day. I want to keep it, but alas, it's out of my price range. It is extremely stretchy and forgiving. I am 5'9, 142, and usually wear a 6. I got a M in this, and will probably try the S. Although the M looks great on, when I sit, the extra fabric sort of gathers up in the middle. Somehow the way it stretches is flattering (even though it's horizontal stripes). Great dress!

Huge and scratchy
I really wanted other people to be wrong, but they weren't. I don't really know how anyone could wear this jacket. I am 5'9, about 142, and usually wear a 6. I got a 1, and it was gigantic. The sleeves were too long, so I had to turn back at the cuff. It was very scratchy material. I thought maybe I could pull it off with riding boots, etc. but my family giggled at me. In the end, I sent it back without wearing.

Body Con that didn't work well for me
Well made and beautiful, but not a great choice for me during the holidays. Maybe I've put on a few pounds, but it just didn't feel right. It was also pretty scratchy material.

Perfect, fun shirt
I loved this one so much, I bought it! It can be dressed up a bit, or down with jeans or shorts. The material is very flowy and forgiving while still a bit sexy due to the exposed shoulders. I will wear this one a lot!

Adds style to a basic white shirt
The fit is extremely flowy, but I don't recommend sizing down. The shoulders and around the arms fit fine, but would've been too tight if I had sized down. It would work very well at the beginning and towards the middle of pregnancy, fwiw. However, I wore it wight dark skinny jeans to balance the volume up top and think it worked well. The fabric is heavy and well made. I would rent it again.

Cute fabric and finishes
This dress is super cute for everyday and especially for a girls' day. As the pictures show, it's very loose and doesn't show any sort of figure, but that can be nice sometimes! The off the shoulder look makes it fun, not frumpy. However, the elastic around the shoulders is pretty tight, so I was flighting to keep it off the shoulder (not much worse than many OTS designs.). All in all, with some tan wedges and a tassel necklace I felt it was an easy, pretty look.

Vibrant, pretty design
Dress was beautiful and should fit most body types well. I am 5'9" and have a long torso. The proportions were just slightly off for me. The waist hit slightly higher than I would like.
