Held my essentials for a worry free night
This purse can fit an iphone 6, lipstick, blush, powder, blotting paper, and my ID and credit card. The purse is flimsy, not hard, but all items remained secure the entire night.

Silver Mesh Glam Clutch
Whiting & Davis
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 3"
Weight: 157lbs
Bust: 38D
Simple and elegant dress that hid my flaws and accentuated all the right features.
Fit: I am 5'3" and 157 lbs with a 32G-H bust. Dress was TTS except for the length. I wore 3.5in heels and the dress still hit the floor while wearing the 10P. Pro: VERY figure flattering especially for an hourglass figure like mine. Cinched at the waist and peplum hides any tummy you want to conceal. Cons: None. Helpful tips: For anyone with a fuller bust, I would wear a bustier of some sort just for support. I forgot mine and I was constantly pulling up the dress throughout the night-- no bueno.

Perfect size for a formal affair
Pros: Beautiful purse that adds the right amount of sparkle. Able to fit the following items: ID, credit card, eye drops, lipgloss, and blotting pads. I attempted to put my iphone in the purse along with eye drops but the purse would not close. So, I had to carry my phone separately. There was also an option to wear a strap (which I did not use). Cons: The closure was not as secure as I would like. I accidentally dropped the purse about 3 ft onto a carpeted floor and the purse opened and my things spilled out.

I felt like a million bucks
The Fit: I am 5'3" and currently 150 lbs with a 32F full bust. Wore a size 8R; size 10R was loose in the shoulders and the back drooped too low. Size 8R fit well but, even at my petite stature and a 2.5in heel, the dress barely hit the ground. The Pros: Beautifully crafted and comfortable. I didn't feel any discomfort around the armpit area from the sequins. Received many compliments. The Cons: My only issue with this gown was the length as described above. Helpful Tips: I personally wanted more support so I used a Nordstrom Intimates Low Back Strap 1-Hook Bra Attachment ($8.50) with my bra without any complications. To ensure neither my bra nor my spanx showed in the back, I used a good ole' fashion safety pin to attach the dress to my spanx (fashion tape works well too).

When you talk about "hits and misses", this dress was definitely a "miss".
The Fit: Dress runs large. I usually wear an 8 and even the small was a little big even still. This dress is not for full busted or hourglass figured women. The dress had no shape and made me look very boxy. Because of my large bust size, the dress draped straight down and away from my stomach--- making me look a lot larger than I am. In addition, the back pooched out on the sides, even after tying the blue ribbon detail as tight as possible. Sadly, I spent money on this dress and didn't even wear it to my husband's holiday banquet (which was the plan). I didn't even take a picture because I was so dissatisfied with the way the dress looked on me. Pros and Cons: The only 2 pros I have is the detailing on this dress and the feel. Amazingly beautiful floral detail. And for a dress with so much detail, it was not itchy or uncomfortable. For cons, please refer to THE FIT above.

Timeless and Chic
The Fit: Anna Sui dresses usually fit small on me but this beautiful number fit true to size. I would recommend this dress to women with a small chest circumference and larger busts (I am a 32F). It is figure flattering and extremely comfortable. The Pros: Beautifully crafted. This dress combines my two favorite things: ruffles and polka dots. Received many compliments The Cons: There was really nothing wrong with this number. I did, however, have to use fashion tape to secure the front of the dress. Other than that, my experience was perfect!

Beautiful Bling
The Fit: This ring would fit perfectly on a size 6.5-7 finger. My ring finger is a size 5.5 and my middle finger is a size 6. Despite the ring feeling loose on my middle finger, it never slide off. The product details state that the ring is adjustable but I was afraid to bend the band, thinking that it might break. Hence, I left it as is. The Pros: The ring is of substantial weight and sparkles beautifully. Looks great in pictures. :) The Cons: The prongs get caught on everything. I had to be careful to not snag it in my hair or on my dress.

I wore this dress to a friend's wedding and received many compliments. No one could believe that I rented a $405 dress for $50. :)
Stats: 5'3" | 145lbs | 32F (DDDD). This beautiful Milly design was snug at the chest but fit perfectly every where else. I ordered both the 8 and the 10 but opted for the 8 because the 10 was a little too loose in the chest, resulting in an unattractive view of my bra. The dress hit at a perfect length, just at my knee. My only gripe, causing my rating to lack 1 star, is that the size 8 arrived with a broken zipper which I struggled to repair the night before.
