Love it!
Soft beautiful leather and just the right size. The only problem is you can't actually close the top securely, which doesn't make it the best option for travel. I did love the classic style and versatile pairing options though!

Perfect!
I love everything about this bag. It's a fantastic bright cobalt color with light gold accenting. It's perfect for work or running errands, or maybe even lunch. I absolutely love this bag!

Great color!
I wasn't able to fit into the dress in a size small (I can usually wear a size 2 or 4), but wish I could have. It's really beautiful, if a bit tight. The fabric is thick to hold you in, but you may want to consider that if you're going to a warmer climate or will be moving a lot since it will get hot quickly.

Fabulous in every way!
I absolutely loved this dress! It's so light and breezy. The feel of the fabric is perfect for the summer time, and it can be easily dressed up or down. The color is a nice crisp white. I wore it with a sun hat to work and my boyfriend loved it. I Also, it was super useful to have pockets so I could free my hands while I was moving around. I would rent this dress again.

Great fit, but the color is very bright
This dress is very comfortable, but the color is literally a neon coral. It's beautiful with the right skin tones, and has the pockets on the seams (which is awesome for minimizing purse space). The material is also a bit thick for desert summers, but it be better for indoor events or events in cooler climates in the summer. It's definitely not a subtle dress.

Cute, but the straps are a real bummer.
The straps really are way too long. It would be cute if you put some type of lacy undershirt that could poke out to increase coverage or if you're not as full busted as I am it may not be an issue. I ended up not wearing it just because the straps were way too long and I wasn't inventive enough to find a solution. The pattern and fit are great. It's a very versatile piece and a classic kind of dress, but the straps are really annoying.

This dress is fabulous.
The color is surprisingly flattering. The pattern that runs throughout is slimming and elegant. It goes down to about an inch above the knee, which is great. The boob window isn't too low cut too.

Rented this one for fun again
This dress is so awesome. The color is bright and vibrant. The fit is super flattering, and it has pockets!! I got lots of compliments, especially since this is a cut and color I don't typically wear. I strongly recommend this dress.

Rented this to change things up
It's difficult to get the colors in the bag to work with the colors I tend to wear. Might have been better with white shoes, I don't know. It has a lot of potential, but I struggled to make it work. The leather is a good quality and the colors are true to tone. It has two small thin designated pockets for make up and stuff and a suede interior.

Rented this for fun, just wanted to try something new
These were definitely different. I loved the color, but I just couldn't pull of the shape. Very retro.

I rented it because it looked comfortable and pretty
The fit seemed to run large, which might have been fine if the belt that I think was supposed to come with it had been attached. The fabric is thin like a cover up. Maybe that's what it's supposed to be? I don't know, it just didn't look much like the picture and seemed cheap feeling/looking to me. Maybe it would have been better with the belt.

Wanted this for the beach and travel
I only got this bag because the one I wanted wasn't available. This bag is just ok. The color is true from the photo and it is a nice size, but it's unlined and doesn't have any sections. It also doesn't really close in any way. It's nice for a carryall, but just not my taste.

Took this Dubai for a formal dinner with my boyfriend.
The fit was a bit loose in the top, probably because I opted not to wear a bra. The dress itself is very conservative from the front and sexy from the back. It's definitely a very elegant dress. The body fit close so the shape was very nice. This dress may not photograph great, but it is very elegant and a bit on the conservative side for a twenty-something like myself. I wore it with a pearl necklace, but I think a garment necklace would have been better since it's so simple in the front.

I wore this to a formal dinner in Dubai with my boyfriend. I got several compliments.
This dress is extremely comfortable and elegant when you walk. The color is awesome as well. The one draw back is photos can't easily capture the elegance and beauty of the dress, so remember that if you need a dress that will wow in photos.

Love it. Adds just the right amount of shine and accents both casual and formal outfits perfectly.
Both parts of the necklace are detachable so they can be worn separately. You have to be careful though, because they're a bit delicate and tangle easily.
