Pretty dress
I rented this dress for a happy hour event. I was a little unsure of my sizing due to being 2 months post-partum, but I went with reviewers recommendations and sized up. Neither my usual size or one size up fit (too tight). I contacted Rent the Runway and they overnighted a size 8 dress, which arrived just in time and fit perfectly! It is short but the long sleeves and high neckline balance it out. I would recommend renting one size up, maybe even two if you're on the fence.

Love these earrings!
I wore these for my baby shower. I received many compliments. I would definitely re-rent them or buy them if I could!

Cute bracelet
I wore this for my baby shower. It's a cute bracelet that fit my tiny wrist. I'd rent again!

Perfect for girls night out!
I wore this for a girl's night out in Chicago. It was so fun to wear. Fun, flirty skirt. I ended up going with one size smaller than my usual but they both fit well.

Rented for a NYE wedding
This dress was cute but maybe too conservative. I chose to wear it with black tights since it was freezing in St. Louis for a NYE wedding. I wore a size 2 and I was a couple months pregnant. It fit well but I think I expected the lace part to be a little more see through. Otherwise it was too long.

LOVED this dress!
I wore it to a summer wedding. Both my usual size 2 and the 4 fit well but I ended up going with the 4 because the size 2 pattern had a yellow and white flower right over my stomach, which kind of looked like a fried egg. Probably no big deal, but it seemed like a weird place for he flower to be. Overall, great dress!

Great LBD
This dress was perfect for a wedding in the cool Colorado mountains. I paired it with a Laura Merkin clutch and magenta BCBG pumps. I received compliments throughout the night. The material is thick so I felt comfortable not wearing a bra. The open back offset the conservative-ness of the front nicely. The one down side is it was a little difficult to dance in. The dress kept riding up. It didn't hinder my moves too much though ;)

LOVE this clutch
I used this for a wedding weekend. I paired it with a more casual outfit to a formal outfit and it transitioned easily. I want to buy this clutch!

Meh.
I put it on and my husband said it looked like I was wearing something from the 90s, and not in a good way. It's not my favorite necklace. I didn't wear it.

Runs small.
Runs small. Definitely rent a size up for a back up. No need for a bra. Wear some spanx. This dress is very cute, it just felt a little too sexy for a wedding for me.

Fun to dance in!
I ended up wearing one size down. My usual size had some bunching in the back. I wore a regular bra and spanx. Overall, great LBD. Fun to dance in!

Perfect New Year's Eve dress!
This dress is flattering to your figure. It is low cut, which is fine for New Year's or Vegas, but paired with being a little on the short side, might be a little much for other occasions. I had a lot of fun wearing this dress and received many compliments!
