Spring Perfection
Fun, flirty, mine was missing the belt, but it still worked. Lots of compliments on the floral, springtime look.
Mini Bloom Burnout Dress

Height: 5' 9"

Bust: 32D
Black & White Lace
Fits well, but is sheer and if you're not careful, the black slip that goes underneath it could ride up as you're walking and reveal way more than you'd care to do so. Great length for tall girls who desire a true knee length fit.

The shimmer of the fabric is really pretty in person.
The overall quality is good, and the dress fits well, but runs a bit short in length. For reference, I'm 5'9.5". Would pair well with some tights.

Fall Color-Pop
This is a super mini, shorter than I was expecting, but fit very well everywhere else. This brand does run small. I usually wear a 0, but always a 2 in this brand. The sleeves are really special.

Perfect Summer to Fall Transitional Dress
Cool and easy to wear. The jacquard texture gives it that extra pop in person. The blue is brighter in person than the picture reveals. True to size, would rent again.

This dress is so flattering and fun. The asymmetric hemline is right on trend, and the jacquard texture gives it extra polish and sophistication. I'd definitely rent this again.

Sophisticated Bright White
While the fit on bottom is very flattering, I found the top ran a bit larger than what I'd like. The length is great for tall women, and the top is perhaps best suited for women who have a larger bust. The fabric is stretchy and forgiving.

Fits true to size and is a true navy blue. Careful of the front slit. When seated, it can reveal more than you bargained for. White piping give it an extra pop.

The Most Fun Print
Everything about this bright dress beams with happiness. It's impossible not to smile when you're wearing it. The bow details on the back give it an extra pop of pep. Go for it! You'll want to rent it more than once.

I Could Live in This Dress
This dress has the most beautiful jacquard texture and rich navy blue hue. The little details throughout the dress are what make it really stand out. There are these little silver buttons on the shoulders and near the peplum hemline. There are no zippers, but it's stretchy and runs true to size. I'd definitely rent it again.

Eye-catching LBD
There's something very unique about this dress. It has a very flattering fit, and I'd suggest wearing your normal size. The white in the front is unusual, but complimentary to the overall design. Instead of more traditional pockets, there's what I'd describe as a quarterback pouch in the front. Material of the dress has a slight stretch to it.

Summer Neon Waves
This dress is so ladylike. The pink is very bright in person. I normally wear a 0, but went with a 2 here, and I'm happy I did. There is no stretch in the material, and a 0 would have been too tight. Size up, ladies, for the best fit.

White Hot Tennis Pro
This dress has beautiful lines, and cool movement with little effort. Definitely requires a racerback bra. It runs a bit short, and while the fabric is soft and thick, there's very little stretch. So if you like wiggle room, size up.

Paisley Print Fit & Flare
I'm on the fence about this dress. The colors are vibrant in person. The fit is so-so. There's a tricky hook in the back, (which is lovely, btw), but it requires help to put it on. I wore a 0, and it was a snug fit. If you want more wiggle room, size up. Wore to a wedding rehearsal and to work.

Dazzling Persimmon Perfection
This is the perfect dress for a summer wedding. It fits true to size, and the material is a bit stretchy. The color really pops in person. It is so feminine, and sexy. Does not require any jewelry to jazz it up. I received so many compliments. The only issue, is that because of the way the top is made, upward arm movement is a bit restricted. So, if you're wanting to bust a move and throw your hands in the air like you just don't care, it could be a drawback. Definitely would rent again.

Summer Fun in a Flute
This dress has unique lines and a flute silhouette. It was a bit too large in the bust area for my liking. Hits right above the knee. Good for summer, but not my favorite.

Sweet Geometric Surprise
I felt so ladylike in this dress. I was not expecting to like it so much, but it's so pretty in person. There are fun little details everywhere: front zipper; side buttons, A-line silhouette; geometric shapes in vibrant colors; tea-length hemline. Fun ladylike statement. Don't hesitate to rent this dress.

Midi Magic
This dress is fitted, but the fabric is a looser cloth. The length could be a little long if you're not super tall. I'm 5'10 in flats. The print is pretty in person, and I received lots of compliments. This look would be ideal for an hourglass figure.

Tastefully Slit
This dress has the perfect balance of subtle sexy and fitted sophistication. It's true to size, and the material is a bit stretchy. The blue color really pops in person. Only drawback is that when you walk, the dress tends to rise up a bit, and the slit can be a bit too revealing. Would rent again.

Spunky, Easy Fun Look
This sleeveless dress is very easy to wear. I paired it with black pumps. The material is sturdy, and has no give. So, if you're thinking you like a little extra room, size up. Bonus: bra snaps in the shoulder of the dress.

Flirty, Feminine, Fun
This is the perfect statement jumpsuit for the current floral trend. The peek-a-boo shoulder adds just the right touch of flirty feminine flair. I'm tall, and it was a bit shorter than I would have liked, but I still got lots of compliments. Would definitely recommend it.

Asymmetric Perfection
So pretty in person. This dress is very flattering and is made of a scuba-like material. It's true to size, and is an ideal look to go from day to night. Only downside is that it rises a bit when you sit down, so it seems short in the back. Would definitely recommend this beautiful dress.

Perfect Fit & Pop of Color
This dress fits true to size. You cannot wear a bra with straps, because the top is see-through. The dress also runs a bit short. I'm almost 5'10" and it hit mid-thigh for me, but it was perfect for the party I attended. Very form-fitting.

Effortless and Easy
This dress made me feel so pretty. It fits true to size, and is so ladylike. I especially love the way it moves when you walk. The pop of royal blue/purple really pops next to the black. Great for work or a cocktail party. Transitions effortlessly from day to night.

Perfect after Easter white dress
Dress fits well, but was a bit loose in the middle, so I belted it. It's a bright white, and with the cold shoulder, very cheerful, youthful and work appropriate. This dress would also be great for a weekend date or happy hour.
