Ruffle Sleeve Dress ($39.00)
Rating: Buy It Never

Fit: I wasn’t planning to try this on. I’ve already tried on enough F21 dresses with this sheath shape and been burned before. But Sydne suggested I try it on anyway for the upcoming (ahhhhh!) holiday season. (Btw, I’ll stop with the ahhhh! holiday season thing probably around mid-October [...]

Architectural Zip Top ($29)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: I was initially drawn to the color. Very Michelle Obama lemongrass. But zippers are supposed to be edgy and structured. Unfortunately, the hardware design up top loses its cool factor when the loops flop over as you walk.
Versatility: If you’re a DIY-er, you could probably get the zippers [...]

Zipper Back Knit Skirt ($7.50)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: I picked up this skirt after seeing the simple knit skirt. I though for sure I’d like it better since an exposed zipper makes everything look cooler. From the front, everything was fine. Then I turned around and it looked like I was one of those cats [...]

Leopard Coolie Coat ($34.80)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: I adore faux fur animal print jackets. They’re so very Carrie Bradshaw-cool. The only problem is it’s hit or miss when it comes to quality. While the boxy fit of this coat is perfect to wear over a LBD, the synthetic material is too shiny to look chic.
Versatility: [...]

Neo Romantic Sweater Dress ($34.00)
Rating: Buy It Never. Ever. Ever.

Fit: I tried this on mostly out of curiosity. In store, this sweater dress is a hot mess that only gets worse once you try it on. There’s the lace overlay up top that is itchy, the mess psychedelic print and that bow belt is a [...]

Floral Tulip Hem Dress ($22.80)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: This thing was seriously shorrrrrrt on me. I don’t even think I’m allowed to call it a dress. The tulip hem is out of control. You can easily see right up the skirt, my inner thighs are on full display and the likelihood of panty flashing is [...]

Velvet Bubble Hem Tunic ($22.80)
Rating: Buy it Never
Fit: Bubble hems are the bain of my existence. They make butts look larger and hips look fuller. And I’m all for velvet—just not when it’s shiny and looks like it belongs on the seat of a barstool at a strip club. It’s really too bad, too. You [...]

Strapless Denim Dress ($19.80)
Rating: Buy it Never
Fit: The spandex in the dress makes it fit incredibly well. But none of that matters since the dress is completely ruined by an elastic, i.e. cheap looking, trim on top.
Versatility: Throw a top over it to cover the elastic and you have a sexy pencil mini. But [...]

Smeared Floral Bubble Dress ($24.80)
Rating: Buy it Never
Fit: I’ll just get right into it. I kinda hate this dress. Like, a lot. The pring it old church lady table cloth, it’s bubble hem (ew!), it’s pretty low cut in a bad, unflattering way. It basically made my boobs look flat and flabby. Hell, even the [...]

Colorblock dress ($39.00)
Rating: Buy it Never
Fit: The dress ran a little large but even in a smaller size it didn’t work. Why? Because the triangle colorblocking in front makes any size woman look like she has saggy breasts.
Versatility: Both color combos, the pink and gray and the green and purple, are fabulous. And the [...]
