Rosie Puff Sleeve Stretch Cotton Mini Sundress

This is my first House of CB item. I don’t know if it’s true across the brand but this absolutely runs small. I’m a true size four and size small in literally every brand. I got the small and I was able to zip it, but the fabric buckled at the waist because it was too tight, and ultimately I don’t think I’d be comfortable. I sent it back for a medium and it’s a perfect fit. I was annoyed I had to size up but the dress is super adorable, fluffy, girly, well made and exactly the look I wanted for my upcoming 40th birthday.

All 3 of my body measurements fall on the smaller side of the “XS” measurement category. Assumed I’d be more than fine since I had some wiggle room & this brand claims to run true to size. NOPE! I look like a stuffed sausage it’s horrifying. Size up!
