Some Odd Rubies
Babydoll Dress
Wide and Revealing/Best As Beach Coverup
Very cute, but I've only been wearing it as a cover-up over a bikini in the surrounding beach towns.
Would not be appropriate in the city, unless worn over a tank. The V-neck is very deep, a bit too revealing even if worn with a wide, tight-fitting belt.
The dress is Very wide, and swings very loosely around the body. I'm size Small, but this dress would easily fit a Large or X-Large size in a similar manner.
The material is thin enough, but not see-through or clingy. Very cool for the hot summer.
I love it.

Sunny Monokini
Maybe for a Larger Chest
This Monokini has no wiring, or support of any kind in the chest. It really has nothing that helps the suite stay on; the material is very thin, and just sort of rolls down if you raise your arms.
Also, the strap connecting the cups and the bottom gaps out & down when you bend over, it doesn't have enough stretch to keep the form.
It's really cute from the behind, and the design is cool.
Maybe for someone with larger breasts; however, lack of support then might really be an issue.
Too bad it doesn't have straps. Problems would be solved.

Charlie One Piece
Short, Cut for Petite Frame
Runs very short. I'm 5'7", and this one piece barely covered my chest. If I raise my arms high, I'm exposed. If I order a larger size, I'm afraid it'll be too loose around.
Clearly cut for a petite frame.
Material is nice, and the pattern is really cool. I'd give it 5 stars if it were sized longer, or marked as "petite".
Sizing: Smaller than Expected

James Perse
Cap Sleeve Casual Tee
Very Thin & Sheer
This T-Shirt is body-hugging, made of very thin semi-sheer material.
I usually purchase size 1 in James Perse, but the size 1 in this T was very body-hugging, second-skin-like, not as loose as it is on the model.

Some Odd Rubies
Arielle Dress
Tall Straps Narrow Waistband
Lovely dress for someone with a narrow torso.
I'm 5'7", and the straps have an extra 2 inches to be altered off; easy alteration.
However, the waistband is quite tight. My band size is 34, I ordered a size S, and since the button-loops are made of tiny rubber-bands, the buttons on the dress stretch out, making it look like they're ready to pop with the bra band revealed behind the button closure. Sizing up to size M for me wouldn't-it would be too large in the chest.
Great dress, very breezy. The straps are made of a lovely sheer material, and the buttons are glass-like balls. Very beautiful. Wish I could keep it.

Rachel Pally
Short Gwyneth Caftan Dress
Too Revealing but Great as Beach CoverUp
Since the dress has a Caftan cut & a split in the middle, if you raise your hands to face-level-the dress becomes a mini; if you raise your hands to, say, fix your hair, your undies will say hello to everyone.
Another issue: a combination of a deep v-neck and heavy material-if you bend-over just a little bit, the weight of the material pulls the dress down so much, that not just your bra will show, but even your stomach will be exposed.
Might work as a dress for someone shorter (I'm 5'7") if wearing a tank. Otherwise, it's Great as a Beach Cover-Up.

Theory
Yanette C Stretch Canvas Pants
Great Pants, but Wide in the Thighs
They are a bit too wide in the thigh area, and I don't exactly have skinny thighs.
If you are in between sizes, I would suggest ordering down. Material has a little give, and with a little stretch they might look better in a smaller size with a tighter fit.
Wonderful Theory quality overall. Flattering cut in the back.
For capris, these pants look great with flats, not just heels.

3.1 Phillip Lim
Bermuda Shorts with Skirt Overlay
Shorts are Too Wide; looks Matronly
When ordering I thought this piece will either look cool, edgy & fashionable, or like I'm wearing both shorts and a skirt. Well, the shorts are quite wide, so it looks like I couldn't decide-should I wear shorts today, or a skirt--so I wore both...
If the shorts were tighter, had a narrow cut, it might work. Looks like I'm wearing my mom's shorts & my own mini-skirt on top.
Fits true to size. Material is nice.
It's a return for me.

Son of John
The Recruit Sweatshirt
Cute but Cheap
Runs a bit small.
The sleeves are made of material that feels cheep-the type that will most likely shirk drastically when washed. The dye on the sleeves feels like it'll fade after washing as well.
Too bad, since it's definitely not the dry-clean type of clothing, and I bought it as a final-sale item. Otherwise I would have returned it.

Kelly Wearstler
Perforated Gunmetal & Quartz Ring
Nice Ring with Small Flaws
The stone has tiny bubbles or scratches inside the ring-I was not able to polish them off.
It's also quite heavy.
Overall the ring is beautiful & eye-catching. I received a few compliments the very 1first time I wore it.
