Marine Layer sweaters always hit
This is one of my favorite brands. The sweaters are made for the 40-50 degree cold mornings in California when the "marine layer" clouds are settled over the coast and you need something lightweight but warm. Translates well to Midwest weather! The sweater was soft and cozy and great for casual holiday meetups or zoom work calls.

So comfy
Super soft and comfy jeans. These do stretch after one wear like other Hudson jeans I've worn. If you're between sizes I would go down a size. This would have been a problem but I wore with a thin belt.

Nice for fall
I really liked the pattern of this shirt. It is kind of an odd length so takes bit of experimenting to figure out what bottoms to wear with it.

Flattering & Different
This is not normally my style but I gave it a try. I wore it to a bar mitzvah and wedding reception and it was great for both events. It's flattering for the mid section.

Gorgeous
Loved this necklace. Not something I would ever think to wear but was suggested by my stylist, Lynsey, at the Chicago store and she did a great job pairing it with my dress.

Betty Draper, Eat Your Heart Out
Rented this dress for the Kentucky Derby and it was perfect for the event. My stylist at the Chicago store, Lynsey, did a wonderful job picking out this dress and the gorgeous pearl flower necklace to go with it. I would not have picked this out from the model photos on line...I think it looks way better in person. I loved the "Mad Men" look it accomplished and the dress has a beautiful sheen to it. The size 10 was the right size, but beware, it is not forgiving around the stomach area even if you have spanks on.

So many compliments!
The dress fit very well and I received so many compliments on it. I also chose the surprise accessory pick by a stylist and she picked a beautiful tear drop earring that went perfectly with the dress. Great dress to wear to a wedding.

In the Limelight Dress

The dress!
I rented this dress to wear to a birthday party. We were in a limo traveling from one bar/club to another. The dress was very comfortable and a gorgeous color. The bottom of the dress was wrinkled when it arrived so I did a light steaming on it which got the wrinkles out However, as soon as you sit down in the dress the bottom will wrinkle again so make sure you get any full bod pics before you sit!

Flutter Away Dress
Milly
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 3"

Bust: 34DD
There are no words to describe how vibrant and gorgeous this dress is. I wore it to a summer wedding in New Orleans and got compliments from strangers all up and down Bourbon St. The other reviews are true, it is an awkward fit, but if you're willing to work with it and get creative it's all worth it. I'm normally a size 8/10 so I ordered a 6 and 8. The 6 was actually bigger in the chest than the 8, but was tighter in the thighs so I wore the 8. It was still kind of shapeless so I belted it with a sparkly deep purple beaded necklace and voila...huge success! Can't wait to wear this dress again.

The dress!
This dress was phenomenal. I wore it to an evening outdoor wedding and it was a hit. The quality of the dress is excellent, and you would never know this since the fabric is very thick, but the fabric is actually stretchy so it is not restrictive when you sit or dance. The way the fabric gathers over the tummy area is very flattering. I ordered an 8 and a 10. I have thighs so I went with the 10 but could have worn the 8 had I realized sooner that the fabric stretches. If you have blonde hair like I do, you will look like sunshine in this dress. Some of the other reviews said the dress is darker than pictured...it is in person but the pictures I took made it look a beautiful vibrant yellow. Highly recommend! Loved my first RTR experience!
