Promising review: "I love this dress. I've worn it to work twice now and its the right amount of breezy for summer heat but covered up enough for the office. Looks super cute with heels or chunky boots. It is a thicker material than I expected but not in a way that makes me overheat, it just feels like high-quality fabric. It's super cute." —Asos reviewer

Promising review: "Love this top so freaking much! It looks so cute with jeans and is a perfect summer top. I got the yellow paisley one and it is a nice subtle pattern that I get tons of compliments on. I ordered in a size small and I don’t have a very big chest so I find it stays relatively put throughout the day. The one downside is that the material is a little silkier so the tie looses a little bit throughout the day. I’ve also found that for myself the straps are slightly too long but I’d prefer that over straps that are too tight. I love this so much I’ll definitely be buying it in another pattern!" —Julie Chapman

Promising review: "Immediately after opening and feeling how soft the fabric was I had to throw it on. It is so comfortable and I can't say enough how soft it is! Such a great house dress to just lounge around in. Def can dress this up with a crop denim jacket, thin belt, and some flats. I already ordered two more of the same in different colors and am looking at the other Amazon dresses to have different styles. Highly recommend. Fits as expected." —Mrs. Powell

Promising review: "THESE WERE AWESOME!!! I say 'were' because I lost them somewhere 💔 but I loved them for the short amount of time I had them. They are a bit snug so I would say maybe go up a half-size if possible or just wear thin socks. Good quality though and really stylish!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "To be honest, pants are a drag for me to buy. I'm 5'9, thick thighs, thicker booty, and it's rare that things fit me the way I want (getting them on doesn't always equate to the style I'm going for, if that makes sense). But these pants are awesome. I got an XL in the black and white checkered pattern and they're just baggy enough to have The Look, but not so baggy that they fall off. They're incredibly comfortable (so much so that my mom wants to buy a pair to sleep in!). I've also washed them a couple of times since I bought them and haven't seen any degradation of the material or the color. I'm totally obsessed, I'll definitely be buying another pair in a different style soon!" —Kindle Customer
