What a statement piece!
I love that you can wear this with both gold or silver accessories because it has both. The panther definitely catches the eye. I think the only downside to this bracelet is that it opens up a little bit and cut my wrist skin more than once were – ouch.

Wonderfully sparkly, beads did not catch
I would have liked to have worn the stress, but it was simply too small. I normally wear a small to medium size dress but this definitely run small and in all the wrong places. The neckline is really high so if you have wider shoulders, this is definitely not the easiest dress to wear. if it just fit me better in the shoulders, I could've made it do but it was making me look like a football linebacker (and my shoulders are not that large).

Wrinkle free, drama free, easy to wear, and definitely easy to move around in
Wore this on a weekend in Vegas – specifically, the Britney concert and dinner. Super easy to wear because it doesn't really wrinkle and doesn't really require any steaming. Although it is rather versatile, if you're on the taller side, this might run short for you. It barely fit me, lengthwise. The rest of the sizing was perfect.

Dainty and elegant
The picture on the profile is actually pretty deceiving because all three chains are linked together. However, what was great about it was that it didn't turn the whole night since the shortest chain how dependent tethered to the middle. Easy to wear, but also easy to lose – I almost lost it because it's so thin and fine. Would rent it again anytime.

Sparkly and elegant while exuding casual and fun
Earrings look like they are made a very heavy metal, but in actuality they are not very heavy at all. However, the sparkle on them was really beautiful and the shape quite nice. Just large enough to be seen wearing your hair down and definitely if you're wearing your hair up.

Runs very narrow in the hips
I'm not particularly wide in the hips, but dress runs very narrow in the hips. It's a beautiful dress if you have a narrow frame with very little curves.

Versatile and stunning piece that can be worn day or night
Not too heavy. Runs a little long so best worn with lower necklines or super high ones. Loved it! Wore for shopping expedition and for night out, as well as on the plane ride back home.
Quinn Necklace

Usual Size: 6

Bust: 34B
Stunning and sparkly. Body conscious but flattering.
Pros: beautiful drape, nice neckline. Cons: beading tended to stick together. Note: I was not able to wear it due to both the 4R and 6R being to short (looked totally awkward on me) but had I been 3 inches shorter, this would have been a perfect dress.

Elegant, figure flattering classic
Though I ultimately was not able to wear the dress to my formal event due to it being far too long to walk comfortably in, if I were just standing there, it looked gorgeous. Pros: great cut. Nice, heavy material. Cons: dress was super heavy and hard to walk in due to its voluminous material. Dress arrived smelling of cigarettes and with deodorant stains on the armpits, so I had it cleaned just in case I needed to wear it. RTR offfered to reimburse me for this cost (I didn't bother) - great customer service!

Understated, classy, and dainty
In comparison to a lot of the other statement necklaces being offered in the market, this piece was definitely more classic. However, it had just enough edge to it with the ribbon detail on the back that it looked very current. Very elegant, sparkly, well-crafted piece. The only thing is that the ribbon is very black, if you don't mind that it is meant to be worn with black, It looks funny with navy.
Tie Up in Crystal Necklace

Sparkly and light
Really detailed beautiful piece. Unfortunately, the dress that I ordered to wear with it came with a broken zipper so I ended up returning the whole lot and didn't have a chance to wear it with the replacement dress, which it did not match. I would've worn it with something else anytime and may consider ordering it again.
Star Light Star Bright Bracelet
Nicole Miller Accessories
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 135lbs
Bust: 34B
Subtle but pretty sparkle
The necklace is easy to wear, but you have to be careful because it tends to twist. Also, the back is hard to clasp if you want to use different adjustments because it is meant to stay on the first ring. Also, the blue is a little bit lighter than shown in the picture - not as vivid.
Camellia Necklace
Slate & Willow Accessories
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 135lbs
Bust: 34B
Color and fabric stood out
The dress fit my body nicely overall, but ran a little bit short in the torso. I'm slightly on the taller side and the dress was a bit short, on the torso and on the length. Fabric was nice and heavy. The pockets were definite plus. There is no stretch in the fabric so you really have to get the size right.

Totally worth what you pay
At first I wasn't terribly sure about whether or not I needed something like this, but if you are going to use the service more than once, it's totally worth it.

Great drape, good craftsmanship.
Lovely necklace with detailed setting. Not too heavy. Slipped off easily when I began to dance so you may want to consider another way to secure it if you'll be moving around a lot.

Gorgeous in all the right places!
Best for women with smaller bust. Empire waist allows for easy wear. Worn with 5" heels, the long on me was exactly the right height (I'm 5'7" without shoes).

Beautiful! Hung on my neck nicely. Was in good quality (not tarnished).
Has long drape so better for deep v neckline or over high neckline.
Fenton Eagle Necklace
Kendra Scott
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 135lbs
Bust: 34B
The quality of the material and beading was gorgeous. It had a subtle but lustrous sparkle.
The long was just a hair too long and using fashion tape in the hem. (It made the fabric buckle). Also, I'm small chested and this would be better on a woman with a more ample chest. Overall, draped nicely, no itch underneath the arms like I had read in other reviews. The only frustration was the zipper, which was hard to close.
