I bought this dress because I was looking for something fun and versatile. The Horny Toad Oblique V Dress is perfect for that. It's lightweight enough to be worn anytime of year, but not too thin for a cold winter day when you layer it up. It looks cute with or without tights. And with boots or sandals. I'm going to get a lot of use out of this dress! The only issue I have with the dress is that it seems to run just a tad big. I usually wear a Small in most everything, but this dress was a little loose and flowy around the waist (not fitted like it looks in the picture on the model.) I like the fit of the small everywhere else enough that I don't want to take the chance on returning it for an XS. It may shrink up a bit after a few runs in the dryer. No matter what, I still really love this dress and would buy it again...and probably will in another color!
