Only Hearts
Denim Jersey Long Skirt
Nice maxi skirt
Nice skirt, good length (I am 5'1" and would not need to hem, although it would be quite long with flats). The color really is denim-like - a speckly blue - and the fabric seems to wrinkle easily. At the price, though, it's a versatile buy. Fits quite slim at waist and hip - I am very small and the smallest size fits me just perfectly.
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected

Velvet
Portola Long Dress
Cute dress although slightly shapeless
Usually Velvet dresses are reasonably formfitting, even for a petite person like me - this one is a bit blousy. It's wearable but probably better on a taller/bigger person. These dresses are great for summer - daytime with flats and a tote, nighttime with heels- so I would probably have kept it if the Susana Monaco version were not so much better on me.
Sizing: Larger than Expected

Spicy Cutout High Heel Clogs
Very cute, versatile, and comfortable
Pretty clog to satisfy that 70s vibe - not too clunky. Seems to fit true to size. The taupe color is very versatile. I get lots of compliments on these. If your size in on sale, buy 'em!

Haute Hippie
Lazer Cut Leaves Miniskirt
Beware - can't be altered
Like all HH miniskirts, it's sized a bit large. I bought the XS and it was huge on me; I made the mistake of not checking with a tailor before I decided not to return it. Guess what? Because of the leaves or petals, it cannot be altered. Buy - but if it doesn't fit - send it back!

ALICE by Temperley
Feather Dress
Pretty dress with some issues
The print is really lovely, but the dress is two pieces: a slip and an overdress - and it's one of those slip/dress combos where you will never, ever, ever get it on unless you put them on separately, and in this case you'll need to actually CUT them apart.
Also- the slip bit is sized quite small, like most Alice stuff, and the overdress is tight in the shoulders but blousy everywhere else - so it takes a little trickery to get it to be flattering. I wouldn't buy again, but I've sliced it up so am out of luck on returns ;-) A cool belt will probably save it.
Sizing: Smaller than Expected

Juicy Couture
Wide Leg Linen Pants
Nice basic wide-leg pants for the season
I ordered a 0 - Juicy runs nice and smal - I am really a 00 and I will just need to take them in a tiny bit. Length was very long, but I'm 5'1" so that is to be expected. The linen was a better quality than I expected from Juicy and has enough weight that the pants seem to fall well. They are as wide as you'd want unless you want actual palazzos. All in all, will probably be a useful basic in an on-trend shape.

Madewell
Dusky Blooms Dolman Dress
Another tent dress
The print is kind of pretty but this dress will need a wide belt to make it work on a petite girl like me. I didn't return it and am regretting that.

Velvet
Hamlet Long Dress
Totally great basic dress
Another great basic dress from Velvet. Like all Velvet, it pills after a few wearings, so it will NOT have a long life...but will it survive a couple beach vacations as a pull-over-bikini-and-go-to-dinner dress? You betcha. The strapless top stays up nicely, too. I bought the black and may get the white.

Robert Rodriguez
Ruffle Dress
Pretty dress, but huge size
I bought this dress as a possible last-minute wedding dress - so when it came in and was gigantic (I ordered a zero), I still had it taken in. Be warned, this dress can't be altered to be formfitting - it will always be floaty. The dress IS very pretty and the ivory color is lovely. I would wear this to a garden party or something similar. It would probably be better on a taller person.

Jarbo
Perfect Pencil Skirt
Cute maxi skirt
Ordered the smallest size and it still needed to be taken in, but that's common for me, so, "as expected'. The color is a nice chalky pale grey and the fabric has some weight to it. I'm not sure the skirt with its stretchy waistband can handle a tucked-in top: it's more about throwing something slouchy on over it. Overall, happy with this purchase.
