I felt glamorous! Pics were taken at the end of the night and don't do this dress justice.
Dress was prefect. I felt beautiful and it felt like it pulled me in in all the right places. Two neighbors saw me as we went out for the night and said I looked "gorgeous" and like I had lost weight. (Please note that one of my neighbors is about 90 and super conservative and the other is in her 30s and pretty flashy this dress was pleasing to both so I consider that a win). Overall a win and head turner. It was a bit long but I am a shorty and wore 5 inch heels to compensate. The only issue was the dress looked like it has been extremely popular. The hem on the sleeve was unraveled and had a red tape on it. I was able to fold it over and hide the issue.

Forbidden Territory Gown

Bust: 38D
Runs large, size down.
This was sent as an overnight replacement to a gown in the same size but different designer that did not fit. Unfortunately this dress didn't fit either, it was extremely large. I am large busted hourglass (38E or 38DDD) and this dress was too big all over even in the bust area. That never happens. Typically the bust is too tight and the rest of the dress is too big. With this dress it was just big all over and sort of just hung on my body. I am sure in the correct size it would be flattering.

Luck Be a Lady Gown

Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 16

Bust: 38D
Beautiful but strange sizing.
The dress fit me large in the bust and the hips but the waist band area was ridiculously small. My waist and area beneath my bust are the smallest part of my body. I was surprise that it fit big everywhere else but was too tight in that area. I had to return it unworn. I was really disappointed as I was hoping to have a dress change at my event.

My partner complimented my earring. He never really notices that stuff! Jaw droppers!
They were a bit heavy and larger than I thought but gorgeous. My significant other who usually prefers something more demure and simple loved these. I felt elegant yet with enough sparkle to make me stand out at the Gala I attended. My picture does not die the vibrant emerald color of the center stone justice.

Classy with just the right amount of sparkle.
I chose these earrings to go with one of two dresses I planned to wear at a fundraiser/gala. Unfortunately the dress I picked didn't fit so I didn't have a chance to wear these beauties. I will definitely choose these again if I can find the right dress. They were sparkly and beautiful yet no over the top, perfect for a classy formal event. Exactly what I would expect from Kate Spade.
