Pretty detail for engagement pics
Wore this to go with one of my engagement photo outfits. It's a really pretty detail to have that's different from a single strand or a chunkier statement piece. Loved it!

The only romper I've ever loved..
Literally everything everyone else says in their reviews is true: the waist has NO give! It was literally the first thing I thought when I pulled on the 4, and why I ended up going with the 6. However, this is still the only romper I've ever loved. I have a short torso and muscular legs, so rompers are generally horrible on me. I rented this on a chance as a more casual outfit option for engagement photos, and I seriously considered buying it. The material is flimsier & thinner than you might expect (which is reflected in the lower price point) but it's seriously a cute, fun, summery romper that was very flattering. The only thing I didn't love is that the side zipper was kind of stiff and would stick out awkwardly sometimes but it's such a small complaint. I almost bought this afterwards I loved this so much.

Perfect details in engagement photos
I loved this bracelet more than I expected. I wore it for my engagement photos, and it stood our perfectly without overwhelming my outfit. It was sturdy, fit well, and added something extra to my photos.

Overall pretty & very comfortable
Got this for an outdoor wedding that was going to be a little cooler (it was actually very cool out). This was incredibly comfortable. I went with a size 2 & 4 and should have really done 0 & 2 because of the nature of the shape of the dress but it looked fine. My fiance was a fan and it was just really comfortable. Comes in two separates pieces (the slip and the lace dress part).

Beautiful statement earrings
Loved these earrings! Wore with my coral bridesmaid dress since we all had gold accessories. It did not feel heavy and I got a ton of compliments on them.

GORGEOUS but tight!
This bracelet was absolutely gorgeous and made a great accessory for my brother's wedding where I was a bridesmaid (dress was coral and we wore gold accessories). The only thing is that this bracelet is incredibly tight. You just have to slip it on (it doesn't have a hinge or anything unless I really did miss something) and I have really small wrists and had a hard time getting it on. Basically I put it on once to try it when I received it, and then didn't put it on ever again until I actually had to because it was really difficult to get on and off. So bigger than small wrists beware. But otherwise it's a gorgeous sparkly piece

The perfect amount of bling
My first RTR experience included the Tracy Reese "Neatly Polished" dress, which is a short strapless silver formal dress. I had decided to wear it with my hair up and with long dangly earrings, so I didn't want to also wear a necklace and be too heavy on top. However, I did want to add a ring to add some extra sparkle and this ring was perfect! It's adjustable so you don't need to worry about the size unless you have very very small or very very large fingers (I'm a size 7.5 usually). It's definitely eye catching in a good way and was the perfect touch to my outfit.

Felt like a movie star
This was my first RTR experience and I'm obsessed! The RTR people were so helpful. I originally ordered a 2 & 4 because those are the sizes I normally wear (at times I can fit size 0 too). The 4 felt a little snug and had some strange crease lines under my bust area. The RTR people ended up sending a courier with a size 6 the next day when I called, and with no extra charge since I live in the city! I ended up spending about half an hour trying to decide between the 4 and the 6. The 4 was much more snug but fit my bust better, and the bottom also didn't feel as loose as the 6. The 6, on the other hand, didn't pinch in as much and I eventually went with that size since the wedding I was attending would include a long night of dinner and dancing and I wanted to be comfortable. Overall, the dress held very well and was very snug (in a good way). The corset-feeling bodice is tight, and by the end of the night I did have some marks in my skin, but I also felt like I could dance without feeling like the dress would shift down on me so I think it was worth it. Also, everyone told me how beautiful I looked and someone even stated that I looked like I was ready for the Oscars. This is definitely a formal dress and darker than it looks in the picture. I would also recommend going a size up (even for your back-up).
