"perfect"
This sweater is soft, just the right length and fits just right (size M). I will, most likely, buy more items from this artist.

"So lovely!,"
This top is a gorgeous pink color. It is beautifully made, with lovely buttons and stiching detail. It is also a nice quality of cotton. I liked it so much, I bought the blue one. Thanks so much.

"So Many Compliments"
I get so many compliments on this blouse! Ive bought a second one because I love it so much. Its hard to tell from the picture but the print is a striking tan/black geometric design. There is beautiful red kantha stitching at the hems of the sleeves and around the neck placket. The cotton is so comfortable and lightweight, and the blouse can easily be dressed up or worn casually. I wash it in cold water and hang it to dry. Buy one size larger than your true size, as it will shrink a bit at first.

This is a cute, lightweight dress perfect for hot summer weather lunches, sightseeing, or lounging around the pool. My dress looks just like the picture and fits perfectly. It came handsomely packaged, so if you wanted to give it as a gift, you are all set. The shipping time was as expected and the package was very well prepared.
