thin material
The top is made of VERY thin material. In the light seafoam color, I would be afraid it would become too sheer when wet. And it will definitely show everything if you get cold. I would prefer some type of light padding or lining to prevent that.

Hermione Sweater Dress
cute
Super cute with leggings and boots. The material is nice and smooth. The leather piping gives it a cute edge. I ordered a M (I usually vary between S & M but wanted this to be looser) and it fit great.

Lindsay Plate Boots
Great Boots
I really wanted a pair of flat black Tory Burch boots for this winter. I tried pretty much every style she made. None of them were comfortable in the ankles (too stiff, so they cut my ankles) and too narrow in the calf. (I don't have large calves and have never had problems fitting into any other boot, including the high-heeled Tory Burch Jess boot). Putting on these Frye boots after torturing myself with Tories was like stepping into a dream. The leather is the usual high-quality from Frye. It looks great and is super comfortable to wear. I have other Frye boots in a 7.5, ordered 7.5s and they fit perfectly. I don't know why I wasting my time with Tory when these were here waiting for me!

Theory
Mayly Fleck Sweater Dress
Stretches out
This dress is cute, for about a minute, until it starts stretching out. The fabric does not bounce back or retain its shape. After wearing it for 5 minutes with the tags on, it was completely stretched out in the hip-through-hem area. It did not look good. It is also itchy. If the fabric was better quality this would be a keeper, but it's not worth the price.

Take Me Back Necklace
Looks great
Love this necklace. The color gold is just right (not too yellow or cheap looking). It has a nice weight to it. The necklace is a perfect way to dress up work outfits without being too flashy.

Brighter than pictured
The coral color is much brighter than pictured. It is truly a neon highlighter color and not a more muted corally color. I still love it, so I will keep it.

Songbird Pullover
Shorter and wider than pictured
I was disappointed with this sweater. The fit is shorter and wider than pictured. Rather than the somewhat narrow "deconstructed" look on the model with a hip-length hemline, this sweater fit me much boxier. The armpits are almost a dolman sleeve placement, which makes the sides of the sweater pull up as you move around. The sweater is just boxier and wider than pictured. Not in love.
Sizing: Larger than Expected

Atira Dress
Snags easily
The gold details on the end of the belt snag the fabric constantly. Just trying the dress on, I got three snags in the dresses from the screws on the gold embellishments. I don't know if this was just a defect in the dress I received or if it's a style-wide problem. Disappointing. Otherwise the dress is adorable. Great color and fit.

Tory Burch
Calista Riding Boots
narrow calf
I love the leather and hardware on these boots. However, I found the calf to be very narrow. I could only zip the boot about 3/4 of the way up. I have another pair of Tory Burch boots in the same size (the Jess Platform Boot) that fits me fine. I don't think I have particularlly large calves, but I seem to have this problem with flat Tory Burch boots. I also ordered the very similar Nadie riding boot from nordstorm during the semi-annual sale and had the same problem. I was hoping the Calista would fit differently but it does not. I also found the ankle to be very stiff/tight/painful on both the Nadine and Calista. I guess Tory Burch riding boots are just not for me. I will have to stick with Frye.
Sizing: Smaller than Expected
See-through
I loved the color of this dress. The fit was as expected (tighter top, looser skirt). I was very excited to wear this dress, until I got into bright light and saw that the unlined skirt was very flimsy and see through. My (pale pastel) undies were totally visibile through the skirt.
