Very sheer
I like the cut of this tee, but it's a lot more sheer than the images let on. A nude bra under it works just fine, but I'm returning because I imagine it'll take no time for holes to appear in the thin fabric.

Modern and classic
This sweater isn't as slouchy or oversized as it looks in the photos, but it's still comfortably loose. I'm a S or XS in tops and the XS fits great. It's well-made, and red, black, and cream is a nice, modern palette.

Fun summer sandals
These are such cute sandals. They're much higher than I'm used to, but I think the clean, modern design counters the potential trendiness of the platform soles. They're flattering, too. I'm a true 8 and the 38 fit just right.

Cute, but huge
This dress is absolutely enormous. I'm 5'3" and a pretty true XS, but the XS in this huge. That said, it doesn't necessarily *look* too big, but this is definitely better suited for someone with some height. The low v makes it kind of tough to wear a bra, which isn't great, because it kind of makes your chest look like potato sacks. It's very well made and the pattern is beautiful and subtle, the material is substantial but not stiff, and it's not see-through. It's a very cute dress but I'm totally on the fence about whether to keep it. Leaning toward no considering the price.

Disappointed
This is the second time I've tried Palatines shoes, and the last. These are super narrow, and they feel very flimsy considering how pricey they are. Cute idea, but I'm returning these.

Timeless
This dress is so beautiful and so well-made, not to mention timeless. It looks great with heels and a clutch, or ankle booties and a leather moto jacket draped over your shoulders. I'm 5'3", 140 lbs., 34B/C, athletic/somewhat curvy (on the pear-shaped side) and bought the 4, which fits perfectly. This dress won't ever go out of style.

More than a basic sweatshirt
I hesitated to add this top to my cart because of the price, but when the sale started, I went for it. I'm 5'3", about 140 lbs., athletic/curvy-ish shape. The 0 fit perfectly, if a little bit slouchy in the arms, but that's how it's designed. It's not as long on me as it is on the model, which surprised me given that I'm a lot shorter than she is. The stripes on this top look much whiter/creamier in the photo than they do in person. They actually have more gray in them. I'm a touch concerned about the terry loops getting snagged, so that means that this won't be a lay-around-the-house kind of top, but rather I'll treat it more like a sweater. It is pretty substantially made, much better quality than a typical sweatshirt, so at the sale price, I can (almost) justify it. Taking off one star just because it's so pricey for being a pretty basic garment.

Classic
I've been debating between these and a pair of Greats, and I went for these when the sale event started. They're a clean, classic sneaker that will go everything. I was a little surprised to see that the leather has a slight grain pattern rather than being completely smooth, but I like that. I agree with other reviewers who said they run large. I'm a pretty true 8 but have a lot of room in these (even with thin no-show socks), so I've also ordered a 7.5 and am waiting for those to arrive, thinking they'll be a better fit.

Sweet summer dress
I'm 5'3" and about 140 lbs., athletic/curvy-ish build, with most of my weight in my hips and thighs. I have some Faithfull dresses in size M, so I bought this one in an M and a S and was surprised when the S fit better. This dress has nice give, and I love that the elastic in the arms isn't tight and doesn't dig. The dress drapes beautifully. The V-neck can dip a little low if you're petite or short-waisted, but it still provides plenty of coverage. I ultimately returned this because it's a little more girly than I'm comfortable with, but it's a very pretty, versatile, and flattering dress and a great deal with the sale.

Unique velvet top
This top is super-cute. It's kind of a gunmetal gray color, and the surplice neckline lays nicely. The elastic hemline might take some getting used to, but it gives the top a tucked-in look and is very easy to wear. I'm taking away a star because I wish there were a more substantial fastener at the neckline, rather than just a single, small snap that pops open if you spread your arms quickly (like when swinging a coat around your shoulders). It's also a touch on the thin side; if you hold it up, you can see through it. But when you're wearing it, the velvet is not see-through. This is a cute top with a unique shape and style. Glad I got it when it went on sale. I'm 5'3", about 145 lbs. (athletic build, curvier on bottom) and the XS fit great. The S fit, too, but there was much more gaping with the surplice neckline around the belly.
