Cerise Stamped Dress
Tried 0
This is a really cute summery dress. The fabric is on the thin side. Even with the lining it's still pretty sheer....definitely need nude underwear for this dress. The elastic waist didn't bother me. It hit right around my waist and I think it will look cute belted too. The back of the dress is slightly longer than the front but not to the point where it looks awkward. The only down side for me is....dry clean (I like to wash my summer dresses right after I wear them) Waiting for sale.
Minutiae Dropwaist Dress
Tried XS
I love the oversized keyhole in the back of this dress, but when I tried it on it wasn't for me. To start off it's super short and the puffed sleeves made me feel square and uncomfortable. I've seen people wear it with a chemise underneath (which is extremely cute), but this one is a pass for me.
Dessau Dress

I love the obi style sash on this dress!! (although in the picture I couldn't tie it correctly) A lot of times Anthro dresses come with pretty ugly looking belts, but not this one! The fit of the dress didn't disappoint. I tried it with and with out the sash and I actually thought it looked ok without that sash too. The back has a unique cut but it's also cut pretty low so you would need to find a bra that will hide under the fabric. It would of been even nicer if the straps were adjustable. Waiting for this one to go on sale!!
Ribbon Grass Dress
Tried XS
I actually don't go for bright colored dresses, but I liked the tiers so gave it a shot.
Verdict : kind a liked it!!
The elastic was comfy and the fabric was light and soft but the armholes were big and loose which is a bit of a turn off. Might consider on sale.
Dot-Wing Dress

I'll get right to the point. This was HUGE on me and I felt like a little girl wearing my mama's slip. I tried on my normal 0 and it was too big every where. The fabric is soft and silky but with no lining and no structure...it sure didn't feel like a $200 dress. This dress comes in a petite size too, so I would recommend going for the petite size. Pass
Fan-Cut Iberis Dress
Tried 0
I liked the cut outs on this dress a lot but it was too big around the chest for me. I think this will look gorgeous if you have curves!! This dress is not lined but the print is not see threw. It has a very silky almost slip like feel to it. The dress has a soft pretty pattern to it. I think the pattern looks better in person than on-line. But a definite Pass for me.
Scattered Stellata Dress
Tried XS
This dress was another major no-no for me. I saw it on the hangers and thought it was ok (wasn't head over heels) but when I tried it on it was a nightmare!! It reminded me of drop waist shift dress that my daughter owns, only this one is not for toddlers. The waist band is very tight and I felt like a squeeze toy!!
With the waist band being so tight I felt the top was baggy and out of proportion. It's too bad because the pattern and dress is cute in theory. Oh and did I mention the arm holes are enormous? See picture of the left.
Passed faster than lightning.
This last dress is not available on-line yet. I'm a sucker when it comes to nautical stripes...or stripes in general so I had to try this one on. The fabric is a pretty substantial jersey material (not too heavy though) and would make a great summer dress...if it works for you. It looked AWFUL on me. The hem made me look shorter and the top made me look like I have a super long torso!!
The green straps on the back are adorable &
love the nautical idea but Pass Pass Pass!!
