Weird tie placement creates bunching
The ties are so confusing, they are sewn on the same side of the dress but are at different heights. When you try to tie it around, it bunches the back side and lifts the dress up asymmetrically.

Perfect work tote, with a zipper
Fits 14" work laptop, notebook, chargers, and lots of other stuff if you don't close the zipper. I'm probably not doing my shoulders a favor by schlepping around so much stuff, but I love this bag for work and traveling. Super sturdy, love the feet on the bottom, and the big zippered side compartment that can fit my full size wallet. I kept this for months on my Unlimited subscription then jumped at the chance to buy it on ks website when it went on sale.

Super cute and comfortable to wear
I wore this to brunch after my wedding and it was so feminine and comfortable that I didn't want to take it off. The colors were a little bit muted and the white part of the dress was more of a cream, but it was still gorgeous. I loved the pockets and the fabric was thick and forgiving. Would rent again!

Looks better in person
I'm in between sizes 4-6 and the bottom was just a bit too small on the 4 - especially the waistband part since the fabric has no stretch. Side pockets were a nice touch but they might stick out a bit if the dress runs small on you. Overall it's a very flattering silhouette in person, size up if you have a thicker waist/hips.

Loved the flowy skirt, very comfortable
I'm 5'5" and with flats the 2P was just skimming the floor. Granted I'm flat chested and it probably made the front a bit longer than if it was on a bigger chested gal. This was such a fun dress to wear! Used a regular bra with the straps pulled in a bit. I didn't even notice the cutouts after putting it on but got complimented multiple times from strangers.

Not as cute as I thought it would be
So I thought that it would be a cute drawstring bucket bag, but the leather is so stiff that the shape is pretty much like a big box with an open top. Water glass for comparison here. It almost sounds like a drum when you wear it because it's so cavernous and because of the thick leather. Push the two small buttons towards each other to open the outer pocket. No pockets inside which is a bummer.
Vachetta Lock Drawstring Bag

Nice fabric, color more muted than shown
This dress would be great for a fall wedding or a work dinner. It fit fine, except that I felt it was made for someone with a shorter torso - it started to flare out just above my hips, so the area around my actual hips felt a bit constrained and it would crease and pooch a little when I moved my legs. There are loops for your bra, the fabric is great, the cut is conservative - not the most flattering dress I've worn.
