Sassy elegance

These earrings are awesome! They are classy and elegant, but have a little bit of sass and personality. I wore them with the Come Hither dress to a Black Tie holiday party. I felt great about how the whole look came together. They are a little on the heavy side.

Amazing and Elegant Dress

I love this dress! (Apologies for the blurry picture). It was stunning and made me feel glamorous, elegant and unique for a black tie holiday party. I had so many people stop me to comment on the dress... It was overall a very positive experience but there was a distinct odor to the dress that I will go into detail about at the end of the review. My experience: BRA: The description says you can wear this dress with a regular bra. I don't see how that's possible unless you just don't mind the back and straps showing. I wore a tape on bra. I tried on several options - a backless, strapless bra, petals, tape on full coverage. I am a 34D so I felt the best in the full coverage tape on because it provided lift without showing FIT: The material of the dress has no stretch. I probably needed a size 6 top half and a size 10 bottom. I wore the 8L after reading the reviews. It was a little big on me through the bust and shoulders. However, across the widest part of my hips, it was very tight. LENGTH: I am 5'5" and even with my highest heels, the front brushed the ground. The backhand a little mini train and is longer than the front, which I could not tell from the pictures. I wound up holding the back of the dress in my hands while dancing. One really important thing I want to mention. When I got the dress in the mail, I was happy with it and could tell it had been cleaned. However, it had a faint hint of an odor to it. As in body odor. I dismissed it as being chemicals and the type of fabric on the dress. I wish I had put it in the dryer on a steam cycle to refresh it before hand. I had it on maybe 15 minutes and could smell the odors even more strongly. (It wasn't me - I had freshly showered before hand). I was terrified to raise my arms for other people smelling this. The event was at a country club where I went to the ladies locker room and proceeded to take off the top part and scrub the arm pits with soap and water to try and minimize the offending odor. I sprayed the armpits with the odor neutralizer in the bathroom as well. It helped some but I was self conscious of the smell all night. Perhaps the one I received had been used or worn too many times or did not get a thorough cleaning to remove the smell from previous wearers. None the less, I looked and felt amazing in the dress. I just made sure to stay an arms distance away and dance with my hands close to my side all night.
