I was over the moon to purchase this lovely Ochre Sierra. When she arrived in all her glory, I noticed she is a thinner French terry fabric than the other Sierras I have. Not a deal breaker for me as I live in south Texas with mild winters and layering her will be nice. She’s still a cozy girl!!
At 5’0 the regular length is just at my knees, perfect for me. Sneakers, boots, Chelsea boots, sandals, she does it all!!
But bc the French terry fabric is thinner in this ochre color it does show some lumps & bumps where my other Sierras the fabric is thicker & hides it all. For this reason alone I rated the dress 4stars instead of 5.
I had been eyeing this dress for months and really wanted to love it. The texture and weight of the fabric were lovely, as was the forest night color. In terms of fit, the length was my preferred length -- just above the knee -- and the top fit very well. Unfortunately, the cut of the swing portion was too generous for my thin and relatively curve-less frame, making it look baggy and ill-fitting instead of loose and flowy. Because of the substantial weight of the fabric, I found that the excess fabric didn't simply fall straight and flow, but instead awkwardly hung and flared out. The pockets, while a great feature, just added to the bagginess of the bottom. I'll have to keep trying the other styles, as the fabric and quality definitely made me want to add a Wool& piece to my wardrobe.
I wear this with a turtleneck underneath and pants. It’s comfy and is a beautiful green.
This sierra is lighter weight than my older one but I'm finding its perfect to wear in summer & fall. I love this deep, rich color of Marionberry! It will be perfect for layering in the cooler months.
Overall I love the feel and drape of this dress, Sierra is my favorite for comfort in almost any activity.
This seems like a newer fabric from the grey one I purchased a few years ago and I'm really loving it! It seems a little lighter in weight and perfect for the upcoming fall season. It's so easy to dress up or dress down. I still wish that the neckline was a little lower for those of us with a bigger bust line and a little long for my 5'1" size, but overall it's so comfortable and easy to wear. I will be adding another one soon!
