I prompted Gemini to take images that I copy-pasted from the OGL order website and place them on me as a size 14/16. These are all pieces that I already own, mixed and matched in multiple different ways. There are a couple of top styles not in there, but I wanted to mix and match the colors. I'm still waiting for the red clay top that's in the top row, but I can see that it fits really well with the Forest Night and the black. I also have some off-white sweater skirts I can mix it with if there is no color bleed when I wash it, and rub a white cloth against it to see if it transfers red color. Red is notorious for that. I was thinking about getting that skirt in espresso brown, but that's a cool brown (according to Google), and it doesn't really work well with the tops. I can't find a skirt that I like in one of the warmer browns. Cedar brown, mocha, sweet hazelnut, and cinnamon or cinnamon buff are the best choices for warm-toned browns when I run a search. Again, I'm a medium to medium-dark depth, with a yellow-golden undertone in the winter, and I pick up a reddish-golden color in the summer.

Fall to Winter

I'm putting together a fall/ winter wardrobe. It's a bit dark today so my colors aren't as vibrant as they can be. The darker color is Forest Night and the orange is Savannah Orange. I like to dress in monochromatic outfits. But occasionally I like to do the complimentary colors and grab opposites Forest Night and Savannah Orange work great for that. Everything in these images is the light warm Eco Mousse fabric which I very much enjoy wearing. One of the images has the tank/shrug combo. One of the forest green tops has the cowl neck, which I think is my favorite of the purchased tops.

In New Mexico we don't have much of a season change. It goes right away from winter to a brief week of spring to what seems like an endless summer from there to a very quick fall back to Summer again without really getting hot enough to go swimming and then winter arrives

Light Warm

This is the most recent set I received. It is the surplus long sleeve top and A-line midi skirt both in size XL . I am between 5'9 and 5:10 188 lb. I usually wear a large or an extra large depending on the company. I hate wearing a bra built in or otherwise so I was glad this top did not have one.

I got the top but it took at least another 8 days before I got the skirt. They were out of stock. It is a soft, warm fabric suitable for my New Mexico weather in the fall and winter. Probably early spring as well because we have some awful wins then. It's a size XL top and bottom and unlike the other outfits that I've ordered, this one fits perfectly. It is like a warm hug. Soft on the skin. Not too tight, not too loose. The color, which is Forest Night is more like a deep teal than a forest, which was my hope when I ordered it.

The ogl app

I installed the ogl app because it seemed like it would be easier. My first experience using it was buying three for $99. A special hat doesn't really exist even after I found it on posted on the app. My second experience was adding three items to my cart. Moving all the way to the place where I check out and choosing PayPal which doesn't work on the app. You click PayPal a little window opens you click the little window to sign in and PayPal closes. So I go to the website and log into my account and lo and behold my cart is empty because the app and the website don't sync. Not very user friendly and a great big waste of my time. Fortunately for me I was finally able to complete my order but really OGL?

Mix and match three for $99

I placed an order yesterday. I finally got both pieces of my outfit and I was able to see how they fit and I wanted to order a new skirt and three new tops to go along with my existing wardrobe. I chose the mix and match tops and picked three plus a skirt and a blouse that we're not part of the mix and match. When it was all said and done I clicked pay and when I checked my invoice I see my three for $99 price was not honored. I'm not sure why unless you take that three for 99 price away. If a coupon or discount is used, there was a coupon discount automatically added to my cart before I checked out and I'm wondering why the three for 99 disappeared. Is there anybody that can answer that question?

Mixed Opinions

Product Bamboo Blend Breathable Summer Cropped Shrug Cardigan

The fabric is soft, very lightweight and has enough stretch to be comfortable. I ordered black and white basic colors to wear with clothes as the seasons change or when the air-conditioning is too cool for me.I ordered the size that was recommended by my measurements (XL) and I’m divided. It seemed like it fit, It’s loose under the arms which is a bonus I don’t want to be constricted. However, is longer than I would like in the back. cropped shrugs should not go much farther down than your under bust line. This one goes almost to my waist in the back. Additionally, it keeps falling off of the shoulders. The cut is somehow not correct for a shrug, I own many and I don’t usually have to keep adjusting any of the shrugs that I already owned. Once again I have found that OGL SIZES ARE INCONSISTENT. So far I have 4 styles, all XL and all 4 fit differently. The flutter sleeve Boatneck to it's a bit loose, the Multi Wear bra top is so tight it is almost not wearable, the Surplice long Sleeve top fits like a warm hug, but I can't imagine it on a true size 16, and the shrugs are loose enough to be annoying.🤔⁉️

Sets

I have the worst luck with this company. I chose a set and ordered. I got a shipping notice pretty quickly, but just for the top.6 days later I have no shipping notice for the skirt so I write customer service and find out the skirts out of stock. It'll be six more days before they even begin to ship it. That's my biggest problem with ordering clothes from this company is the amount of time it takes to get here. It's a long delay before it even reaches you in the first place and then to find out it's out of stock after the fact is annoying.

I love the fact that you can order different size tops and bottoms with their sets. I wish they would make more of the colors into sets. Often a top I want doesn't come in the same color as a bottom so I skip the whole outfit.

Thoughts on my new pieces

I ordered new pieces in size XL. I don't have pictures yet. I just got home from work. I love the fabric and the dark Marine color is gorgeous. I can't find very many pieces in that color. I would love to have another top in Dark Marine, especially the boat neck batwing sleeved ruched.

I tried them all on and found that the size XL for the flowy ruched skirt was the correct size for me. I also feel that the sizing is inconsistent. The Dark Marine skirt is looser than the Black which should never happen. A size XL should be a size XL across the board no matter what color you're ordering. I also ordered the flutter sleeved ruched top with the boat neck and found that the XL is the correct size. Now here's where it gets confusing. XL fits everywhere including the last chance white halter top dress I bought in size XL. Even though it was a straight cut skirt I took a chance and it fits.

However, the top (Multi-Wear versatile necklines bra top) that I ordered in dark Marine size XL barely fits. The armholes are cut exceptionally small and I feel that the band on the brami top is uncomfortable, it's not necessarily tight, but it's definitely not comfortable either.

The first thing I did was pull out the pads. I walked around wearing it for about 20 minutes to see if I could stand to wear it long enough to actually wear it to work, I'm not sure whether an XL would work better because the basic problem is the armhole cut. I'm not sure if it would be any better in a size XL. I still haven't made up my mind, but I have read that the return process is a nightmare.

I'd like to hear from some other people about the armhole cuts on other tops and or dresses. The one thing that would keep me from ordering quite a few pieces is the inconsistent sizing. If I can't be sure I wear an XL across the board then I don't know that I want to take a chance waiting for a week at a bare minimum only to find out I need to send it back and exchange or reorder. I don't have that kind of patience anymore not when I get 2 to 3-day shipping And free returns from most companies.

Soft and comfortable

I've attached two pictures in one I am wearing the flowy side ruched A-line midi skirt with The ogl women's boat neck batwing sleeve top . In the other I'm wearing the ogl woman's boat neck batwing sleeve top with a silk wrap skirt.

I have mixed feelings - mostly because of the sizing .

I feel like the products are premium fabric The modal especially is equal to premium clothe I have purchased that cost three times what these cost. The designs are amazing and very figure flattering.

I love the way the fabric feels against my skin. It seems like the pieces I bought will be easy to mix and match with my current wardrobe. I'm a teacher and although we don't have a strict dress code, I do need to dress somewhat conservatively. I also feel more comfortable if I'm wearing dresses or skirts.

I have what can be described as an hourglass figure that leans towards the pear side. I'm 5''91/2" and weigh about 185 lb. Following the measurements in the size charts I ordered XXL for the hip size. Unfortunately I think I ordered a size too big. After putting them on and moving around, they feel a bit loose in the waist, fit well in the hips,and aren't too revealing in the bust area. Depending on the company, I can wear a large, an XL or an XXL. in this case. I ordered XXL because the measurements for the hip indicated the XL would not fit well. I think that was a mistake and I can't see any way to alter the skirt to fit better in the waist. It's a perfect fit in the hips loose enough to not be super revealing. The same for the blouses, they fit well in the hip area, they're loose in the waist and because I'm very small busted they're also loose in the bust.

Unfortunately, I took the tags off and I think that eliminates the possibility of return, for this set anyway.

I wonder if any of you have had experience with exchanges or return? I would like to try different sizes, but since the product came shipped directly from China, I'm not sure how much of a hassle return or exchange would be if I ordered other sizes that did not work out.
