Promising review: "I am EMOTIONAL about how great this is. I am a bodacious and curvaceous young lady and finding anything that looks good online is a constant fight. But I want to wear this every day. If I was a cartoon, I would want this to be the outfit that I have a closet full of. Did I mention the skirt is perfect? It's kinda long, but I wore it with some platform-y wedges and it made it look even cuter! Who gave me permission?! Just get it, okay? That's the moral here." —Sara

Promising review: "I'm IN LOVE with these shorts. Being a short girl with an hourglass figure and thick thighs, I found it was impossible to find high-waisted shorts! They wouldn't be stretchy enough or they would stretch enough to get over the thighs but then leave that dumb gap in the back! These are stretchy...ahh perfectly stretchy! No wiggle struggle getting them on. I got a billion compliments on them the first time I wore them out! Get these! I'm purchasing the dark ones next!" —Melody Orlanes

Promising review: "To be honest I didn't have very high hopes for a shirt this inexpensive. But at that price point I also figured that I didn't have much to lose. I'm busty and have tattoos on my shoulders so finding cute comfortable clothing that's appropriate for work and doesn't cost a fortune can be a challenge. This shirt looks exactly like an Eloquii one I've been eyeing for awhile but at a fraction of the price. I'll probably get the other colors as well!" —Arden Bee

Some reviewers also styled it with the sleeves worn off the shoulder, and several reviewers say it worked as maternity wear, too!

Promising review: "Ethereally beautiful!! This dress is absolutely LOVELY. It's so lightweight, breezy, and comfortable. It fits perfectly, and the bodice has plenty of stretch so if you’re in between sizes, you could go either way. I actually sized down because I wanted to wear it on the shoulders and didn't want the sleeves slipping off, but I didn't have an issue with that at all. It's wrinkly when it arrives, but a quick steam makes it look so much nicer and more expensive than it is. I got the sage green color and it's not see-through, it's beautiful. Get this dress!" —Laura

Get it from Amazon for $37.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 27 colors).

Promising review: "Perfect for summer or early fall. It just makes me feel like such a princess. It's stretchy but not sooo stretchy that it doesn't hug your body (which it will). The skirt is rather short (but of course that's a given) and honestly the fabric feels very high quality." —Imani S

Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in sizes S–XL and five colors).

Promising review: "I love a matching set because it takes most of the work out of putting an outfit together. And this one is such a great deal! I love how comfy and easy it is to wear. I was concerned about it being see-through, but it wasn't! It has a stretchy waist and a cute tie detail in the front of the skirt. For spring days, I just throw a denim jacket over it. And, of course, I plan to wear it all summer as well. I would 100% buy more colors in this — and there are so many to choose from!" —Kayla Boyd, BuzzFeed Staff

Promising review: "I love this dress. Simple, classy, and professional. It molds to my body in all the right ways, and it wasn't too long. It can be worn with a nice necklace to spruce it up, and flats and/or pumps. The material is also versatile enough so that it can be worn year round, all you need is a pair of stockings or tights, but the dress will work either way. I plan to order more colors." —LadyLestat
