I ordered a bunch of stuff, most of which I talked about here, and finally got around to trying it all on. So here are my thoughts about what I've tried, in case this is useful to anyone, and because I always appreciate feedback on whether I'm completely missing something.

#1-2: Eliza J dress: Love this. It seems like it was made for me, which is nice considering that so few clothes really do. Looking forward to wearing it with a cardigan or topper for work, and by itself for nice dinners or special occasions. Only question is which size. #1 is 8P and #2 is 10P. I think the smaller one is better, but appreciate other eyes if you can tell anything from these pictures.

#3-5: EF knit dress: Love the color and the idea of this dress, but leaning toward returning. The SP (#3) is a little clingy, the MP (#4) is a little shapeless, and it has these pockets right on the fullest part of my hip that don't stay closed, and I'm not sure extra fabric and gaping in that area is really a great idea for me. #5 sort of shows the pocket issue, although it's more noticeable in motion.

#6-7: NYDJ ponte pants: I think these work. I'm always lacking pants and don't really have any ponte skinnies that are more like actual pants and less like thick leggings, so these will be useful. Would probably wear them with either longer tops or with a fitted top and a longer cardigan like in #7, not with just a fitted top like in #6.

#8: Ted Baker floral top: I love the fun pattern and colors and easy fluidness and already cut the tags off. This picture is actually WIW yesterday!

#9 (and also #6-7): EF indigo top: Love the color, but think I need to size up unless I just want a fitted tee for layering. They don't have the MP in stock now. I just ordered the MP in the 3/4 version in this color, and will decide whether to keep that or try to see if I can exchange for that size in the original one I tried on. Either way, I know I can use one top in this color and think it'll be a nice basic piece with a little polish.

#10-11: BP navy booties: Likely keep. I have a pair of navy booties that I like but don't wear much even though they go with a lot because they're suede and don't have the most comfortable heel, but these seem more versatile and could probably replace those. I also like the style and the black details are fun and would let me get more wear out of them because they'd go with my omnipresent-in-winter black tights.

#12-13: Franco Sarto burgundy booties: Likely return. I'd really like burgundy boots or booties, but don't think these are the one. What it kind of comes down to is that I'd need different socks for these (the pink ones are the kind I usually wear with booties, so I'd obviously need something lower cut for these), but don't care enough to get them. Also, the burgundy isn't as vivid as I was hoping.

On order: The EF indigo 3/4 top in MP, and this Vince Camuto top because I can always use a simple black top that can stand alone or be layered.
