Rehearsal Dinner Dress
This was my least favorite dress I ever rented. The fabric is lighter weight than I expected it to be, and even though I liked the idea of the cutout, the execution didn't work so well for me. It bunched together a lot and I spent the whole night pulling the skirt down so that I got the full effect of the cutout. It's true that you don't have to wear a bra, which was great. Overall, this dress worked well for a casual rehearsal dinner, but I've rented better.

Made for Twirling
I loooooved this dress. I wore the 8 because the straps on the 10 were too big, so take that into consideration when choosing your sizes. They're adjustable, but not much. The color of this dress is really a bright red, so if you're shy, this dress might not be for you!

As always, size up
It's no secret that Elizabeth and James runs small, so make sure you size up. I wore this to an engagement party, and I really loved it. The color is different, and the neckline was so flattering. I would definitely rent it again.

Another Great Lilly Pulitzer
I rent Lilly Pulitzer's a lot, and they never disappoint. This one might be my favorite. I wore it to a bridal shower, and it was a perfect choice. The gold rope detail on the top is so interesting, and the cut of the top is super flattering. I would definitely rent it again.

Bigger Than I Thought
These earrings were a little bigger than I imagined they'd be, but the color is beautiful. I wore them to my friend's rehearsal dinner with a yellow Halston dress, and they complimented it perfectly.

Stunning Color!
I wore this to my friend's rehearsal dinner and I couldn't have been happier with it! I had never worn this color before and I wasn't sure how it would look, but it ended up being really flattering. The top stayed up, which doesn't usually happen, and the length was perfect. The fabric is a little thinner than it looks in the picture, so you might need some Spanx to smooth everything out, but you should definitely rent this dress. I paired it with bright blue shoes, a Kate Spade snake ring, and blue Kendra Scott earrings. Everyone complimented me and wanted to know where the dress was from!

Backup dress saved the day!
This was my backup dress, and overall I was very happy with it. I wore a size 10, and it fit true to size. The a-line skirt was very flattering, and it was super comfortable. It's not lined, so I had a few issues with it sticking to my Spanx, but that is my only complaint. Perfect for a bridal shower or baby shower!

My favorite rental!
I loved this dress. But when they say go up a size, they mean it. I would even suggest going up one size for your first dress and two sizes for your backup. You're going to turn heads in this dress, so enjoy it!

This dress made me feel like a million dollars!
I loved this dress! I was nervous that it was going to be too tight, but it really stretches while also managing to suck everything in. The material is soft and comfortable, but substantial enough that you feel covered. And the length was really flattering. I highly recommend this dress...I want to wear it to every wedding I go to!
