Show stopper dress!!!
This dress is gorgeous! It is glittery and just oh so pretty! I did read a lot of reviews before I chose this dress and have to agree that it is heavy. It is not quite as heavy as I expected but I did go down a size (yeah for back up sizes!) and still felt I needed to wear a padded push up bra just to help hold the dress up and help it to fit better. If you have very firm full perky breasts you could probably get away with just the built in support but I was surprised as I am a 32DD that I felt I needed just that added bulk of padded bra to help fill the dress out and hold it up. I did pull it up a couple of times through the night but no more than I feel usually happens with most strapless dresses. It did irritate my arms just a tiny bit towards the end of the night. Overall it has a lot of give which was a bit surprising. I think if you have a fuller cup size this would work REALLY well for you! This dress was so much fun to wear in a sea of black and navy dresses. It has that great blend of old Hollywood and classic wow. I would totally rent it again. I am knocking off one star for the length of the dress. It just touched the floor barefoot at 5'4" this is not usually a problem and I usually wear at least a 3" heel....I wore a 3.5" heel anyway and my toes did peek out the front of the dress but it has a mini train so it still had to be lifted when I went up and down stairs so I think a longer dress would have been too long.

Cute and holds oh so much!
I used this with a gold sparkly dress at a formal dinner and it worked very nicely. I have severe food allergies so I always like to have my Epi Pens with me "just in case" when we go to sit down dinners. It easily stored my epi pens, mini lipstick, cash, has little pockets for id and credit card. It also easily stored a corkscrew and a folded up hat.....This thing is huge but still looks really cute. I would totally rent it again! I did knock off one star because the sequins did look a bit worn at the top where the flap bends to open and close, but you had too really stop and inspect it to see this. Overall great bag!

Super cute
So this was unfortunately WAY too big for me. I wear a size 5.5 ring on my ring finger and a 6 fits nicely on most my other fingers. This did have little tongs inside it that you could pinch together a bit to help it fit. Unfortunately it just kept falling off my fingers so I decided to not wear it. It is very cute, just not if you have skinny fingers.

I loved that these were sparkly and romantic!
These were perfect for the soft Romantic look I wanted, while still being super sparkly! I took away one star because while they weren't super heavy after six hours my ear lobes were pretty tender for a day. But other than that they were perfect!

I love these earrings!!
They were understated but very chic. They were a touch on the heavy side they didnt bother me as I tend to love big, dangly earrings:) But if your not used to them I could see how they would be a little bit heavy to wear all night.

It was gorgeous
I ordered the 2 and 4 because I am a touch on the busty side for some size 0-2 dresses. After reading reviews I decided to go with the size 2 and backup size 4. The 2 was great! The ruching and back on this dress take it from nice to knock out:) I wore it to a wedding and I felt amazing. It does require a stick on bra which is not my favorite but for 6 hours in an amazing dress it was worth it:)
