Runs small!
This is a really cute top, but be aware that it runs at least one size small. I typically wear a 0-2 and a 32C. The 4 fit me but was very tight.

Perfect unique jumpsuit that is comfortable!
This jumpsuit worked perfectly for a work holiday party! I wanted something unique and flattering, but conservative enough for a work function. This piece is just right! Pair it with big earrings and bracelet, and you are all set! For reference, I'm 5'6" and currently 130lbs, wearing 32C and size 26 jeans. The waist was snug, but the overall fit was great. It has some stretch, making it comfortable, and it works with a strapless bra.

Great cuff!
I rented this cuff and the matching earrings (pictured) to wear with a black jumpsuit for a holiday party. They added the perfect unique twist to the outfit!

A great, versatile clutch
This is a great clutch that works with a variety of outfits. Dresses, jeans, leather pants - you name it, this will give it just the right amount of bling! It is a bit larger than I expected and has plenty of room for wallet, phone, keys, and a lot more.

The perfect bling for many occasions!
These earrings are great for a formal event, but they are also the perfect, funky statement piece for a night out. I wore them with jeans, a black leather top and the Rebecca Minkoff Silver Glitter Leo Clutch - so many compliments!

The perfect LBD!
This dress is comfortable, flattering, and original enough to get a lot of good attention! It is made of a great, heavy, knit that stretches to hug you curves in all the right ways while hiding lines. For reference, I and 5'6", 125lbs, 32C, size 26 jeans.

A great dress
I rented this dress in black, and it was fantastic, so I thought I would give the red a try. It is a beautiful color and style! Unfortunately, the material on the two dresses is slightly different. The red version is definitely smaller and tighter, and the material is not forgiving (so you can't cheat a smaller size) - you can see every line. I'm 5'6", 125 lbs, 32C, size 26 jeans. The small was too tight, so I recommend sizing up on this dress (but not the black version - the small fit in that color).

Nice Dress
This is a nice dress, very well-constructed and definitely one that hides trouble areas due to the great touching. However, it was "just okay" on me. Perhaps a tighter fit would have made it more "wow". For I'm 5'6" 125lbs, wear a 32C and size 26 jeans. The 2R fit okay but was a bit lose and didn't do anything great fur my figure.

Stunning evening gown!
Everything about this dress is dynamite! It is perfectly appropriate for any formal affair (including work) but also incredibly sexy. It is definitely scuba-suit tight, but just as it is supposed to be. The built-in spanx are perfect (no extra layer needed), and I was able to wear a racerback bra with it, which helped create a bust even in the very tight top. This is great with hair up and large earrings to accentuate the simple, yet unique style of the dress. For reference, I am 5'6", 127ish, wear size 26 jeans and a 32C bra. This was tight, for sure. I probably could have worn a 4 (wasn't available) but honestly I don't think it would have been as flattering. When putting it on, I thought the 2 would be uncomfortable, but as soon as I was adjusted, I didn't even notice it anymore.

Pretty Earrings
These are very pretty earrings, perfect for a formal. They are also lightweight. I didn't end up wearing them because they were more white than silver, and I ended up wearing a black/silver earring with my black dress.

Beautiful, flattering dress!
This dress is great for a formal affair that called for a balance of sexy and modest. The stretchy material hugs in all the rights places but is not too revealing. I was able to wear it with a strapless bra, but the support is enough that you could go without. For reference, I am 5'6", 127lbs, and a 32C. This dress was definitely tight through the upper ribs/bust, and I had to get help to zip it up. It is also shorter than I expected (shown with 3" heels in the picture).

Unique dress but awkward fit
This dress has a lot of potential, but you really have to have just the right fit to make it work. The dress is not very stretchy, meaning it doesn't adjust for different body types. While the size 2 fit okay though the waist and lower body (I'm 5'6", 125lbs, size 26 jeans) the top gaped (I'm a 32C). The straps are for show - not support - and were stitched together where they crossed in the front; that would have been okay, but it was crossed off-center by about 2-3 inches and looked very odd.

STUNNING earrings - perfect for formal event
These stunning earrings literally make the outfit. Put them on with any black gown, and they will add that extra elegance and glam that you need for a formal affair. Personally, I didn't find them to be particularly heavy, although they are (of course) heavier than a simple hoop or stud.

Pretty, unique gown
The pros about this gown are the beautiful hi-low hemline and the off-the-shoulder style. However, it ran a bit large on me, which meant that it kept falling down on top and was not particularly flattering (it seemed to add 5lbs, but with the right fit I think it would be stunning). The main con is the band running across the front and shoulders: every time you raise your arms, it flips up, and you have to lay it down flat again.

Runs small and limits movement
This is a pretty dress, but if you are considering it then be aware of two things: First, it runs at least a full size smaller than most of the other dresses. I am 5'6", 125lb, wear size 26 jeans, and the zipper gaped on the side by a good 2-3 inches. Second, this dress is far more restrictive through the knees and lower leg than most mermaid dresses. Even with a larger size, I can't imagine how I would be able to dance (or even walk) in this gown.
