So Gorgeous/Couldn't Get the Zipper Past My Ribs :(
This dress was absolutely gorgeous, however, it runs extremely small in rib cage area. I usually wear a 0 or a 2. Ordered this in a size 2R after reading that the dress can run on the smaller side. Sadly, every part of this dress fit beautifully except the rib cage/chest area.

Don't Mind Me, I Just Feel Like A Queen
Where can I even begin with this dress? It's was way more stunning in person than in the photos. The material was soft and silky. Felt superbly expensive!! Wore this dress to my husbands birthday dinner and then out to a speak easy. Each place we went, heads were turning. I elected to wear sandals since there was some walking involved. I'm getting super old and my knees just can't handle walking around in heels anymore (::shame::). Thy being said, had I chosen to wear heels the dress would have still been floor length (and I'm 5'7"!).

Teeny Tiny LBD
Had an amazing night in this teeny tiny little black dress. I'm gonna warm you right now... this dress is a little on the short side if you are a taller girl. I'm 5'7" and found myself constantly pulling it down when I hopped off the barstool. Despite that one annoyance, I felt sexy and fun in this little beauty (as you can see from my Chardonnay fueled picture #embarrassing)

Wonderful Dress w/ One Problem
This dress was so cute on the rack, however, the way the dress looked on my actual body was a different story. The actual fit of the dress was perfect but the way the pattern is positioned across the stomach region made me look like I had a larger stomach than I actually have. It's hard to tell in my picture but it's a little bit of an optical illusion. I'm not sure why they decided to switch up the pattern on such a sensitive area... the dress would have been perfect except for that weird design flaw.

Original Colors & Design
This dress was so original and such a standout all weekend. Comfortable, flirty and really fun!! I wore this dress to get my hair done before heading on a date night and I received many many compliments from the hairdressers and the customers!! I felt like a STAR, guuuurl! Needless to say, I felt so gorg on my date night. I had one too many Rosés and had my hubs take this photo (::lulz::)

I Basically Lived in this Dress for 3 Days
Firstly, I'm so upset I didn't take one photo in this dress!! I wore the darn thing three nights in a row one weekend and not ONE picture (::crying::). Secondly: the dress was an absolute stunner. I received so many compliments every place I strolled into. The compliments kept coming so I kept wearing it! It basically became my second skin!! Thirdly: not only is the dress gorgeous, it's comfortable AF! Do yourself a favor and rent this winner for a fun weekend!!!

Comfortable? Check. Fun Color? Check. Pockets? Check.
This dress fit like an absolute glove. The material was breathable so even in this warm Virginia weather I wasn't awkwardly sweating. I'm not even going to mention the pockets, those bad boys speak for themselves!!

Extremely Transparent
This dress was absolutely gorgeous on the hanger. I absolutely couldn't wait to wear it. Unfortunately, the dress ran small and was extremely see through. I was stuck in quite the pickle... I couldn't wear underwear without every line and color showing through the fabric and I couldn't go commando without showing the world my goodies. With much regret, I hung the dress back on the hanger and I sent it back to RTR. I wish this story could have been different

Loved It So Much, I Bought It <3
The fit on this top is so flattering! I wore this top three days in a row. Once to work (paired with a blazer) and twice over the weekend. My husband literally told me to buy if it would get me to pipe down about how amazing it was!! So I bought it.... and still haven't shut up about it!! Hahaha!

So Extra
This dress made me feel like Gigi Hadid!! So many people stopped and literally stared at this brightly colored dress as I walked by. If you are feeling a little 'extra' and feel like making a fashionable splash at the office, this dress does the trick. I received SO many compliments on the dress throughout the day! In regards to sizing, I typically wear a 0 in Black Halo dresses. This dress was a size 2. I noted that the shoulders and arms were a bit loose on me. I had to pin the lining of the dress on the left side to my bra strap (I wore a halter back) to keep it from showing when I sat down. Luckily the right side has that gorgeous ruffle!! I think a 0 would have fit perfect but the 2 was comfortable enough once I pinned it.

Gorgeous Color for Spring!
Loved wearing this dress due to the fun spring color and unique neckline. It's not often you stumble upon a professional dress with a boatneck! The one con about this dress is the weird pleating at the thigh. This made the dress crease strangely when walking. The con isn't bad enough to make me disappointed.. just more annoyed.

Super High Quality
Absolutely loved this sweater!! The sizing was perfect and the sleeves were long enough to cover my ridiculously long arms (which is a rarity). If the sweater were a different color (the idea of an expensive white sweater gives me stress anxiety. Haha), I probably would have splurged and purchased it. Highly recommend!

OBSESSED - I Could Honestly Die
If I won the lottery tomorrow, this dress if the first thing that I would buy. I'm absolutely obsessed with the fit, the playfulness and the professionalism of this dress. I spent my work day prancing about my office without a care in the world! The fabric moves so beautifully when you are walking. It's very flattering and makes you feel as effortlessly glamorous as Megan Markle!! I'll stop this review before it becomes a sonnet... but seriously do yourself a favor and rent this bad boy. Lord knows, I'll be renting it again, and again and again until I become a millionaire so I can afford it ;)

An Eclectic Statement Piece
Let me start by saying, I LOVE this blazer. The material is so high quality that I felt like freaking Lady Gaga when I wore it. I received so many compliments! My only compliant with this blazer is the sleeve length. I have extremely long gorilla arms so I never really expect a blazer to hit at the appropriate point on my wrist. However, this blazer barely hit past my forearm. To be able to wear the blazer without looking silly, I rolled the sleeves up. I wish the inner liner was a fun print so that the sleeves rolled up would be more fashionable but... not everything can be perfect!!
