Great dress for running around town
Size: Large, Color: Coffee
I love this dress. I ordered this dress fist in a medium, then a large. I probably would have been fine in the large, but I just wanted a little more room and I wanted it to come to my knees so I ordered the XL and I love it. The material is a cotton knit type material similar to a t-shirt with a little stretch to it. I am 5'2", #170 and the XL gave me the fit I was looking for, being loose and comfortable. There is a second layer under the dress that has shorts and a tank top built in. Unfortunately, you must take the entire thing off to use the restroom but I am considering adding snaps to the crotch so that it is easier and I won't have to completely undress to use the restroom. The olive/army green is beautiful and I am planning to order the plum color dress as another addition to my summer wardrobe.

Cute Idea, But Fit Didn’t Work for Me
Size: Medium, Color: Coffee
The material was nice but also a little different than expected. It’s soft, just not quite the level of softness I was hoping for.
I do think it’s worth the price overall, but it’s not something I would personally wear 24/7.
I ended up returning it because the fit just wasn’t quite right for me. It was very loose up top but really tight around the bottom, which made the cut a little off for my body type.

Postpartum Certified!! :)
Size: Medium, Color: Black
I am currently a breast feeding mother who is only 5 weeks post partum. Heading into the summer I needed clothes that fit my changing body and gave me a little confidence that I’ve been lacking recently. This dress has completely done it!!
The material is extremely comfortable and not too tight on my body. It’s long enough to give me the coverage that I’m comfortable with but still makes me feel cute. Without knowing how to shop for or what size my body is at after birth, I listened to the comments and got a medium when I was thinking I might be a large and it fits great! Definitely size down though! I will be getting more!!!

Perfect for summer
Size: Medium, Color: Coffee
This is so comfortable and really good quality. Can be worn casually or dresses up for summertime.
The coffee color is perfect. Runs a size big.

Good looking shirts. Will not disappoint.
Size: Large, Color: Carbon Heather
These shirts are a great quality. They wash great with no shrinkage. They are very comfortable based on my husband’s feedback. They look as advertised. The variation in colors were perfect. The size fits perfectly. My husband is an XL for the long sleeve but a L for the short sleeved Carhartt T-shirts. The neckline is comfortable. Would recommend to others and will be purchasing more.
