Lovely earrings
The earrings were very pretty and the perfect complement to a simple evening dress. One of the tiny crystals had fallen off during shipment but it wasn't even noticeable when wearing them.

Beautiful, flattering dress
I was skeptical when I ordered this dress. Reviewers said you couldn't wear Spanx with it, and anything low cut when you're busty is always somewhat scary. But the dress fit perfectly and I wasn't at all self conscious while wearing it. In fact, I thought I looked great in it. I wore 3" heels and the R was just the right length (I am 5'7" and debated between R and L). Again, the dress is low cut so of you are in a really conservative crowd, I probably wouldn't select it.

I didn't wear this dress because I couldn't zip it up
I normally wear an 8, but some 8s can be a bit tight in the bust area since I'm a D cup size. However, I couldn't even begin to zip this one up. I took a chance because they didn't have a 10 available for a backup size, but I think I might have needed a 12.

These earrings were beautiful. They are a nice weight and not too heavy.

Glamorous but comfortable dress!
I normally wear a 6 or an 8 depending on fit in the bust area, and this fit me perfectly in the 8. I loved the weight of the fabric. This has a train and you don't have to worry about it ripping when someone steps on it, and they will. Everyone remarked how beautiful the dress was. I got it in the long size because I am 5'7". I think I could go either way at my height since I don't typically wear super high heels, but definitely get the long if you are 5'8" or above.

Beautiful, sophisticated dress!
I loved this dress and so did everyone else. It fit well and was very flattering. It does run small. Most of my body fits into a 6, but my large bust size sometimes requires that I wear an 8. The 10 fit perfectly. Also, it comes quite wrinkled, but it is easy to press out the wrinkles without damaging the fabric. I would definitely rent this dress again!

Beautiful earrings!
These earrings are gorgeous and sophisticated. They are not heavy, but the clips started to hurt a little bit after about 3 hours. I was very pleased with them overall though.
Solar Flare Earrings
Slate & Willow Accessories
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 130lbs
Bust: 36D
Beautiful and sophisticated
This dress was beautiful. I am busty and typically wear a 6, but needed the 8 in this dress. It fit snugly, but not too tight. My only minor complaint is that the lace is not as delicate as it appears in the photo. The black background portion is somewhat like a fishnet and it is a little bit scratchy, but not so much that it made me uncomfortable. Be warned that you cannot wear a bra with this dress though. The solid portion dips much too low in the back to be able to wear one.

Nothing But Lace Dress

Usual Size: 8

Beautiful and not as heavy as the look
I typically don't go for big earrings because of the weight they put on my earlobe. These, however, look heavy but are surprisingly light. I loved the delicate detail around the edge.

Pretty dress, a little tight if you are busty
I like the look of fit and flare dresses and this was no exception. This dress isn't a knock your socks off kind of dress, but it is pretty and professional, and I am glad I chose it for the gala that I wore it to. I am a little bit busty, and the 6 was a little tight in the bust. The 8 fit perfectly in the bust, but was loose in the torso and waist area, so I chose to wore the 6 instead. I think I was the only one who could tell that it was a little bit tight, though, and I think it looked very nice.

Sexy but also business like
I rented this for a September 11 gala, and it was perfect. It fit beautifully and I received lots of compliments. My only complaint is that you cannot wear anything other than an adhesive bra with it. Not a problem unless you are busty (those adhesive bras do nothing for anybody over a B cup size).

Beautiful, classy earrings
I wore these with a fuschia satin Kay Unger fit and flare dress, and they were perfect. They make you feel like Grace Kelly. I highly recommend them!

Gorgeous, sexy dress!
I loved this dress and got tons of compliments! You definitely need to wear shapewear underneath, no matter how skinny you are, but the dress fits comfortably and is extremely flattering.

Simple and elegant
These earrings are dressy but understated. They were the perfect companion to my black lace dress. Also, my ears can be quite sensitive and these did not cause any reaction whatsoever.

Beautiful dress!
This dress was simple, beautiful and fit quite well. Like others, I ordered the M and the L, and wore the L slip with the M dress. The M slip would have fit everywhere but the bust, though. I received many compliments that night!
