Short girl success!
I was a little hesitant to rent this dress even though I thought it was absolutely gorgeous because I'm short. When my birthday came up, I figured why not try it out with my birthday discount. I'm so glad I did! I'm only 5"2 and was very happy with the length. Almost a maxi on me but I'll take it!!! I wore it with a strapless bra but probably could've gone braless since the bust with fairly fitted.

I felt like the salsa dancer emoji!
So fun! Already on the hunt to find one I can own! As someone who tends to shy away from this more boxy silhouette because it just makes me feel bigger, I loved how the fabric flared out at the bottom, it was such a fun little accent and I think added to the flattering shape of the dress. It's more of a true red than a coral/pink but I almost think the red color is even more fun. The cutouts worked with a regular strapless bra but the tiniest complaint would be that it was a tiny challenge trying to get the wrinkles out of the fabric.

Spring rehearsal dinner pick
Pros-- gorgeous color, neat little bra strap loops on the inside so you don't need to worry about anything going rogue. Plus such fun shoulder detailing. Cons-- I had to pick between a flattering fit in my hip/stomach area or my shoulders. I ended up going with the 6 because I wanted to enjoy drinks and dinner without sucking in the whole time. Unfortunately, because of my shorter torso, I ended up with what me and my girlfriends dubbed "triangle shoulders" because it kinda poked up/gaped up top. The bra strap holders were life savers and helped keep the gaping a little less prominent.

Holiday Hit!
Absolutely adorable! I chose to wear the 6 (I had also ordered the 4) because the fabric has little to no give. With the high neckline, I was a bit too constricted in the 4. At 5' 2", this was a perfectly appropriate length for my boyfriend's company party, especially with some boots. Major disco diva vibes!

Graduation Day Gem!
Perfect perfect perfect! Loved the pockets for holding my phone during long graduation ceremonies and the little slip underneath made it feel a little extra special. Not too low cut and the length was just right for a fun but special daytime event.

White hot!
I had read that it ran small so I ordered the 4 and the 6. I'm short torso-ed so I could've been a little more comfortable with the 6 but it was gaping around the sides, where do you really want to be exposed. Luckily the 4 fit and I felt like a rockstar! Was nervous about the side cut outs but it fit comfortably with a sticky bra. Love love loved it and wish I could've kept it for myself!

Spanx needed
I wish I could've gone up a size because even the 8 was tight around my stomach. I've since lost about 15 lbs and probably would've liked it better now. It was short so I felt like I was tugging it down all night. Curvy girls beware!

Fancy for formal
I wore this to my boyfriends fraternity formal in New Orleans and felt pretty darn great! I probably could've worn the 2 because it was a little loose and a little long on my 5'2" frame. The sparkles and pattern were beautiful and I wish I could've kept it for myself :)

Perfect for a Vegas themed Deb party!!!
I rented this for a Vegas themed Deb party that listed "bring the bling" as the attire, and boy did this dress deliver. The 4 fit like a glove, only a little bit of riding up while dancing. The black lining peaked through a little but with the dim lighting and party atmosphere no one would've noticed. Love love love this dress (and the suggested Slate&Willow earrings were gorgeous too)!

Sequins sequins sequins
Nothing makes you feel more like a princess than a full sequin gown! I wore it to a Mardi Gras ball for my best friend who was queen and fit right in:) I initially thought I needed the 6 but I felt the 4 was better because it didn't bunch. I would totally recommend this dress and RTR to all my friends
