Glittery and Glam!
I wanted to change dresses for my wedding reception and I love gold so I thought this little number would do the trick. It was perfect. Everyone kept telling me how glamorous and gorg it looked. I really enjoyed swishing around in it and I thought it was a fun dress to dance and entertain in. However there were a few cons: I'm 5'3" so the dress was crazy long. I understood that going in but I thought wearing 5 inch heels would help. Not really, I was still tripping over the dress. Eventually I tossed off the heels and just gave into dancing with one hand holding up the dress. The dress was a perfect fit on my lower half but the bust and shoulders were really off. The shoulders had a few gaps (probably because I was so short) and the the bust was designed for a gal who has a larger chest. I fixed that problem with two strategically placed safety pin. Amusing story. . .. one pin flew off during what I felt was an awesome dance move but my girlfriends quickly helped me put everything back together.

Grand Statement for a Grand Night!
I got married over a month ago and just got around to throwing the reception. I didn't want to wear my wedding dress but I still wanted something fabulous. I found this gorgeous gold dress and then this necklace. Wow. This necklace was great. I received so many compliments on it and everyone kept telling me I should just keep it. It's a dark, antique gold (think Downton Abbey) and is adjustable so you can wear it at several lengths. I made mine into a sort of choker so it would match the neckline of my dress. I think this necklace is great for formal nights and of course, any party that's looking for an Edwardian theme!

Didn't know they were clip ons!
These are stunning earrings and I loved the way they looked both online and in-person. However, I didn't realize they were clip-on earrings. It's probably a user error but I don't remember seeing that when I rented them. So on the night of my party, I just left them in the box. I can't stand the pinching feeling of clip-ons.

Cute Little Necklace that Added Pop!
I used the chat feature to find this accessory for a dress I rented. It was a great little necklace that wasn't too heavy on my neck and looked great all night. Actually, I wish I could've kept it! :)

Fabulously Glittery for a Bachelorette Party!
I ordered this dress to wear to my bachelorette party which had an "old Hollywood" theme. I received both the 10 and the 12 and neither was completely perfect fit. The 10 was too tight in the bust and the 12 was a little loose in the bust so I compromised and used the 12 with a safety pin! Everyone complimented me on the dress and how great it looked. I especially loved how it added curves in all of the right places. I would definitely recommend this dress looking for a little flair for their next event.

Cute Summer Dress!
I wore this for my grad school graduation party. It was a great little summer dress that offered the right amount of comfort and cuteness. I thought it fit well for my height, falling a little past my knees but still looking good. The dress did run a little big and I ended up picking the 10 over the 12 when they came in the mail.
