beautiful!
This is an understated dress that's not boring! There is no stretch in the fabric, so tightest area for me was the waist. I could tell that my dress was a little on the older side since the scalloping around the neckline was starting to curl, but it still looked beautiful as a V-neck. It hit just below my knees, so I felt ok wearing a caged shoe in order to not cut off my legs.

Great Pop of Color!
Very comfortable dress that let me breath and eat. It hit me right at above my knee, so everything about this was super flattering. I love renting dresses like this for the pop of color, but this is an all-rounder great dress!

Fraying edges
On the hanger, this dress was amazing! But once it was on my body, I was pretty disappointed. Due to the ruching, the zipper was extremely difficult to go over so many layers of fabric. The fact that that's the most fitted area of the dress makes it harder. The thigh slit is super sexy, but I thought a little high for a formal affair. Plus, the edges were frayed and you could very obviously see the seams coming apart at the top. I used some fashion tape to keep the seams down and close the slit a few inches. Would not rent again.

Such a sparkler!
This had a super strong magnet which stayed closed with everything I put in it. I love when there's a keycard/credit card sized pocket in clutches. Was more than spacious enough to fit my phone, lippie, tissues, and car keys. It definitely pulls more sparkly than gold. The clasp and hidden change were more silver, as well.

Sleeves for days!
Perfect LBD with some attitude! The sleeves were a big hit at the wedding. The sleeves stay on despite your entire décolletage being exposed due to the high back, so it got a little sweaty while dancing the night away. It was snug with stretchy fabric so undergarments are very helpful smoothing out problem areas. The back slit isn't that high, so you won't be mooning anyone nor will you be taking strides. Medium to high heels compliment this dress since all the drama is up top, something needs to spice up to bottom!

Subtle Sparkle
This little bag was great for a wedding since it has a little more depth which let me hold so much more than a usual clutch. The sparkle from the stones weren't as eye catching in person, but that lended itself to the formality of the event. I didn't use the strap, and noticed it took up a lot of room inside. I was still able to fit cash/cards in the side pocket, my phone, tissues, lippies, and keys with the bag easily closing!

Such a great color!
This dress was such a nice pop of color amongst all the black dresses at the wedding. I wore a bra but you could easily be comfortable without. The mid thigh slit kept me cool in the summer heat. There was no stretch whatsoever in the waist so when I sat down, I had to be careful how how much I ate but the folds of the dress did hide my food baby!

Flat black clutch
Despite being flat, the clutch held a lot! There's a pocket perfectly sized for credit card and ID. It also fit my phone, tissues, lippie, rollerball perfume, and the rolled up chain.

Sparkling stunners
It was a little heavy for my taste. But they were very secure all night and the colors basically match everything imaginable or add a pop of color.

Lovely floral!
This print is so lovely! It's not too overbearing but it's still eye catching and noticed. The waffle print fabric is this great summer weight, and the texture was different from the norm. There's zero stretch at the waist, so I went with the larger size so I could eat at the buffet and have no difficulty fitting my food baby sitting down. You have to wear a strapless bra, but if you could fill out the dress, I'd try to sneak with wearing nothing at all.

Excellent Gatsby Purchase
This was the perfect OTT pearl strand for a Gatsby party. I loved how it overflowed so I didn't need much other jewelry. It's pretty hefty, so be prepared for the weight. But the clasp never turned around on me so it looked like pearls on pearls on pearls all night long!

So many compliments!
I loved this piece! I rented it for a party but ended up also wearing it to work since I wanted it on my hand for longer. It stayed in place the entire day and the chain meant I wasn't going to lose the midi portion of the ring. It was a little big on me so I ended up having to wear it on my middle finger, but it looked great on almost every finger. No hardship there!

Not quite long enough to be shoulder dusters, but added the perfect amount of personality and movement. I appreciated that my earlobes weren't crying at the end of the night!

Great Movement
Didn't need a bra, but was easy to hide strap under the collar. It was very fashion forward at the midi length. I though about using double stick tape to change the hem, but with the flare of the skirt (so you could actually walk) it didn't look that great aside from the actual intended length.

So Pretty!
I loved that I didn't have to wear a bra with this dress. There's an extra clasp on the inside that's useful to smooth down lines and gave me a cinched look up top. The lace in front made it appropriate for the older crowd and the open back made it flirty for the younger crowd. I got so many compliments on the color as well!

Flowy fun
This dress would've been perfect if I had the bust to fill it out. It was on the short side of what I'm comfortable wearing, but didn't ride up through the night. I was very cool in the summer night with the one shoulder detail and no bra, but I also needed to tape it down since my small chest would've been very visible leaning over otherwise!

Tight in the chest
This one is for my fellow small chested ladies! (Seriously, it's really tight up there) This dress was perfect for my graduation since the blush pink and dark green stood out against the black of my robes. It had pockets to hold my phone during the ceremony and was super comfortable to stand and sit down in. Only con is that it's not stretchy at all, so I couldn't raise my hands all the way when I tossed my cap.

Subtle Sexy
I didn't end up wearing this since I only received my back-up size. It made me sad since trying on the S made me know my originally ordered M would've been the perfect size and looked great. I liked how this top was a vibrant pink/magenta, which would've looked great against a sea of black going-out outfits. The cut out is low enough on my body that I could've easily worn a bra, although I suggest a cute bra (possibly lace) so that if it shows when you raise your arms, you're extra flirty. Since you're already showing skin, the slight crop would pair well with low rise or high rise bottoms; mid rise bottoms just look weird against the hemline.

SO comfortable!
I love the pattern on this dress, and that it looked different from the front and the back so the pictures turned out great. Other reviews about the material were spot on, and the stretchy fabric made it comfortable to sit, stand, and dance the night away. Great length and didn't ride up on me. And all the colors and patterns on the dress made it to style accessories and shoe wise. (Bonus: the pattern also hid my belly!)

So pretty
Made me feel like I was in a dancer's tutu all night long! I didn't have to worry about mooning anyone, but it's definitely a minidress. The fit is important for this dress to look good with the tightest area being the waist. Gave me a curve when I'm a stick. Win from RtR!

Tight and Sexy
This dress has a lot of va va voom! It's tight because of all the bands of fabric that suck you in (and make you look skinnier), so you may need a partner to zip up the side. I have a booty and did have some issue with riding up in the back. Definitely size up for the backup.

So Flashy!
A little bit on the heavy side, but the backs were very secure and allowed the earrings to dangle and move. My only complaint was that the earrings could kink and show the boring back side of the earring. Statement pair for sure!

So many compliments!
I wanted a dress that was comfortable but stood out in pictures for my school's Formal, and this dress was just that! I got so many compliments throughout the night about the fun, flippy skirt and the fantastic color. It's most fitted through the waist so I actually went down a size from my normal. It's also best for nighttime events since the bright sun may make the line between lining and tulle extra obvious. Other than that, only great things to say about this dress!
