Lovely unique sweater
(February 19, 2013)
"I received this in the green as a birthday gift. The color is gorgeous and so flattering with my pale skin. I'm 5'7", 125 lbs, 34C so the medium fit well- definitely boxy and oversized but any smaller and it would've been far too short. I like the fit and the sleeves are the right length which is nice. The fabric is soft and not itchy at all. The weave is tight enough that you don't need to wear anything underneath and it definitely keeps me warm. The criss-cross detail is what makes this top so special. While it does show some of my bra in the back (and sometimes the straps because of the wide neck), I'm not really bothered by it and I typically like to wear a pretty black and gold bra that I don't mind showing off a bit."

"i got this in the small in ivory (5'5" 120lbs) and it fits well. yes, it's boxy and baggy but it's supposed to be and i wanted it that way anyways. the detail in the back makes this sweater extra special. i've already worn this several times and received a lot of compliments. definitely buy this!"

Love it!
(January 12, 2013)
"One of the best things I ever purchased online! It's super warm and yet so sexy with the back!
I am usually a size medium but this time, I decided to get in small because it is quite big and I am really happy with my choice!
Love it and can't wait to wear it outside :)"

stylish and comfortable
(January 5, 2013)
"I love this sweater because its perfect for any occasion! I'm 5'5", 115 and flatter-chested and I bought a size medium in the grey color. I wish I got it in a large because I was aiming for the more oversized look. Overall, great quality, comfortable and keeps me warm! Adorable with leggings and a pair of doc martins or combat boots"

very enviable sweater
(December 31, 2012)
"It is so comfortable and warm-much more than I expected it to be. However, I bought it in a xs at first and it was fitted more than I expected. I was going for a more baggy and loose look, so I reordered in a small. The small is somewhat looser and looks better on me. I sort of wished I had gone even farther to a medium..but oh well! I like this sweater enough to keep it! :) I'm about 5'5 and 110 lbs."

Love this sweater
(December 28, 2012)
"I just got my sweater today and I was very excited. I had been eyeing this sweater for a while, so with the money I got for christmas, I bought it. I bought this Wednesday night and I got an email saying it was shipped this next night. I got the next day. I instantly tried it on and LOVED it!! it's so soft and I love the color, (I got the maroon), I love the navy blue in it too. I love the crossing in the back. I sent a picture to my friend and she loved it also, she is planning on buying herself one. I got a medium and it's just loose enough and is just perfect. for reference I am "5'4 and about 125 LBS. This sweater is just PERFECT!!!!"

Best Sweater
(December 27, 2012)
"This is probably my favorite sweater. It is cute, but also super warm! It is not itchy at all. I am 5' 108lbs, and I ordered an XS. It is supposed to be on the bigger side, but I'm not drowning in it. Fits like a dream."

Not Satisfied
(December 25, 2012)
"Although this sweater is comfy and warm, the fit is unflattering. I'm 5'5'' and 120 lbs so I got a small and it was far too big at the top. It made my torso and shoulders look so wide!! My advice? Try it on before you buy it because if it fits like mine, it's not worth the $60."

Comfy!
(December 22, 2012)
"I bought this in the Ivory and in medium. It's such a soft and comfortable sweater. I really loved the white colour - it was white but had a wheaty-coloured double thread which added to the colour nicely. The cross-back is stylish but the sweater is still really warm. The medium fit doesn't fall off my shoulders, but it does sit nicely on them to give the sweater a girlier look. The arms are a little long, but I like that as it keeps my hands warm. The cut can be a little boxy if it bunches but my hips are pretty sizeable and it only boxes when I wear a heavy shoulder-strap bag. Otherwise, it falls very nicely. Overall, a lovely sweater and I'd definitely recommend it. For reference I'm 5'5", 143lbs and bra size 34D."

Warm and cozy
(December 20, 2012)
"I got this sweater in black, as you can see in the picture, it's not completely black - it's black/grey melange. The back detail is beautiful, as well as the colour.
It seems to be an oversized sweater, so I ordered a M, but it is in no way as baggy on me as on the model. I don't have the same figures as the models, I'm curvy (but not overweight) so I should have known. The sweater isn't tight though, it's just shorter than I expected and the sleeves are tighter as well. But I still love it and no doubt recommend it!"

Comfiest sweater I've ever owned
(December 17, 2012)
"I ordered this on a bit of a whim in Maroon, as I was looking for a cozy sweater for winter. This one's super amazingly comfy and soft, but it's still a bit stylin'! After reading the reviews that said it was very baggy, I was a bit afraid I should have ordered the M (I got a L), but I'm glad I got the size I did. I like oversize things, and I am 5'9, so the extra length is probably a good thing. For more size reference purposes, I am 155lbs and 34DD."

Go a size down!
(December 16, 2012)
"I love this sweater! Not only is it thicker than I was expecting but the detail in the back is so unique and beautiful. This sweater keeps me really warm in the winter even with just a tank top under it. I am 5'10 and 135 lbs and a small fit perfectly. It's definitely oversized so I would recommend leaning towards a smaller size."

Cute Sweater
(December 6, 2012)
"I saw some reviews that sad this sweater ran big and some that said it ran small while others said it was true to size so I was worried ordering it online that it wouldn't fit right. I bought a medium which is the size I usually wear. It fits as expected. I think the fit depends more on your frame size more than anything I'm taller and have shoulders that fall more on the broad size and a little bigger than average chest. It fits well but it definetly isn't fitted at all. If you like fitted sweaters this isn't it, but it's not like you're swimming in it. It just has an oversized feel. I think if you have narrow shoulders and a smaller chest though it could fall in a more oversized or unflattering way so I'd keep that in mind if you're more petite.
The material is a lot thicker than I expected. It's a little too bulky for my taste but I kept it and still love pairing it with leggings. Definetly wouldnt be good for you if you live in a warmer climate."

This shirt is cute but HUGE!
(December 3, 2012)
"This is a really cute shirt but I ordered it online in a small and it was HUGE. It would be a cute shirt if it was smaller. I normally wear a small at urban but i would have needed an extra small or xxs for it to fit well. I will be returning it and possibly replacing it with a smaller size."

Not Exactly What I Expected
(December 3, 2012)
"After reading the reviews on this sweater, I decided it was just what I needed. I ordered it in black and waited and waited until finally I received it. Although it is good quality and nice looking off the body, it is not flattering at all. I'm 5'2 and 135 lbs, so I ordered a medium, and I look like I'm drowning in the thing. I will keep it though, because it'll pair well with leggings. It wasn't what I expected."

(December 2, 2012)
"I am 5'2 around 120 lbs, and the small fits great. It's a little boxy, but looks great if you pair it with skinnies or a skirt like the model is wearing. I love the back so much. I got it the in the green color and it's gorgeous. I really want to order the ivory because I'm tan and I think that would look great!"
