Wearing your dress this way, with this top, makes it look like you are wearing shorts. I still wonder where you work that you can wear these outfits?

I loved the idea of wearing a tank top over the dress. Nice!

Too boxy - not flattering on your petite figure. Do LOVE the shoes, though!

EXCELLENT! Wow, this is surprisingly very successful. My first reaction on sight was to love it, but then I looked at it closer, and the boxy cut of the top gave me a moment's puzzlement of "but...but...that SHOULDN'T work..." -- and yet it does! It's cool; in the first hands-on-hips pose, it's like a little girl playing warrior and donning supercute pretend "armor" out of her closet for battle (which in my opinion is a grand look); then in the other photos where the poses are more relaxed, it's clear that the top flows with the uniform and is actually pretty flattering with it. And I love the accessories (though am curious about the hidden pendant!). Nice one!

Although these looks are all great, the many minis are starting to share a sameness. I'm thinking that you will be saving pants and length for colder weather but maybe find a way to bring it below the knee that isn't tights?

I adore the wristlet and I like the tank but wish you'd belted it or something to give the look some shape...

Love your sassy little pose in the first pic! Great idea for layering; the color helps the black background look "cooler."

At first I was like "what?" but then I looked at it again, and I'm finding that, surprisingly, I'm liking it. Your pose is so cute in the first one.

I normally love your outfits but this tank is very unflattering on your frame. Too big and boxy!
Posted 1384 days ago.
I am amazed at your creativity --delighted and surprised every day by your artform. This outfit looks terrific on you!

The top piece looks a little baggy. There's no shape going on here--but heck, even the straight squareness of this outfit is cute. Shoes make up for it so well.

This is great but are you getting these donations because of the project or just because people are nice? I live in ny and find it hard to get such great things totally free :)

It's certainly inspired, and I love the socks and shoes, but the top is too boxy for your frame. You always strike the cutest poses!

You look terrific, esp. in the 2nd picture...but totally agree with mim:you'd belted the tank top. Me too a bit curious about the hidden pendant...
