GORGEOUS earrings!!
These looked incredible and I wished I could go back in time and rent them for my wedding! They were the perfect glam touch at my high school reunion. A bit heavy but I wasn't bothered by that. Wore them for 9 hours. Lots of compliments. LOVED.

Chic meets comfort!
Wore this little beauty of a dress to a 1920’s themed gala and it was absolutely perfect! The color and fabric are beautiful; perfect for colder temperatures while still looking sexy and chic. My usual size 14 wasn’t available so I took a chance on the size 12 and it fit like a glove (hourglass shape). It was so comfortable and I didn’t even need shapewear. I would have liked to have worn it as is, but it was a little too scandalous for the setting (meeting people professionally) so I added a tank top. This allowed me to wear a regular bra which was also a bonus. I got tons of compliments all night. Would definitely wear it again!

PERFECT statement earrings!
LOVED THESE! They were the perfect compliment to the necklace that my sister-in-law gifted her bridesmaids. Very pretty and elegant! They were a little heavy by the end of the night, but I’ve had them on for about 16 hours at that point. Would absolutely use them again for another formal event.

Perfect for a summer event
Carried this bag with me for my future sister-in-law‘s bachelorette party vineyard hopping along the coast. It was a perfect vibe and could be dressed up or down. Great for summertime events, and I love that it had a chain strap to wear over your shoulder or you can carry it like a clutch.

Too snug; couldn’t wear it
LOVED the look of this dress; it’s so beautifully made and was the exact vibe I wanted for a friend’s speakeasy cocktail wedding reception. Only wish it wasn’t so snug. I’ve worn this brand before and solidly fit in a 16 without issues, but this style was just cut WAY too snug in the hips. I was really uncomfortable. For reference, I’m an hourglass shape with full hips and bottom and a narrow waist and ribcage. My typically size is usually a 12/14/16 depending on brand and cut/style/designer. I so wish this style had fit more comfortably; really disappointed it didn’t work for my body.

Perfect for a Wedding
This was actually my back up dress when the first didn’t fit; it did not disappoint! The bodice is very fitted which was what I wanted (no bra necessary and no straps falling down). Typically, I’m a 14 but since a 12 wasn’t available, I tried the 10 and it fit like a glove. The skirt is full but not too puffy. My one quibble is with the length. I’m not particularly petite (about 5’6”), but the length only hit a few inches above my ankle. About 6 inches shorter would have been the perfect midi length for me but I still loved the dress! I got tons of compliments all day and night. Highly recommend!

Great Cocktail dress - Fit Description Misleading
LOVED this gown and it would have been perfect with my Manolos for my friend's wedding, but alas, it did not fit. The problem: though the outer skirt was a floaty A-line (very forgiving for those of us with curvy hips and booties), the UNDER skirt was a straight, stretch-less sheath. In A-line skirts, I can wear an 10 or 12, but with sheaths, I usually need a 14 or higher. This drives me crazy when I order online; if there is a shape difference between the outer and inner skirts, it needs to be noted in the description. I had to return it. It was a shame too - SO pretty! I would give the look of the dress 5 stars, but the description 0 stars... so I've settled on 3 stars.
