Bright, fresh, fun and comfortable dress with room to move
This dress is adorable, the perfect length for this 5'2" girl and left plenty of room to move and generously hide a 13-week baby bump that looks more like "too many cheeseburgers for dinner" right now! Lots of compliments, very comfy, loved it!

Great color, silver sparkle, subtle RAWR
This is a beautiful dress -- lovely navy blue color with really subtle cheetah print and gorgeous silver detail on the bottom. I rented sizes 6 and 8 and it turns out I was in between sizes. The 8 was too baggy on top and the arm holes were too large, so I went with the 6 which was very tight across the bust and created an unfortunate "uni-boob" effect. Ultimately, tighter looked better than baggier. In any case, the dress was still beautiful, I still got TONS of compliments, the length was great (I'm 5'2") and it was a fun party dress. The fabric is really high quality. The skirt has a fair amount of "foof out," which I liked, but it might be too "foofy" for some. Great dress for lots of occasions. I also rented the Nicole Miller silver "Southern Plantation" earrings to go with it and they were the perfect compliment.

Cheetah Crawl Dress
Mark & James by Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6

Beautiful summer night to be at a wedding in this beautiful, summery dress.
I reserved two sizes of this dress -- sizes 6 & 8 -- but both dresses had a tag that appeared to read 8. One fit larger than the other though, so I'm calling that the size 6. Very comfortable dress, adorable, great length, flattering fit and perfect for a "summer dressy" occasion. Though I never used them, it even has pockets. It's also very easy to accessorize because the lace is elaborate so your accessories don't need to be.

Perfect for a casual birthday fun night out
TERRIBLE photo, sorry! The color and pattern on this dress are cute and unique, but the photo on the website makes it appear as though the peachy/pink fabric goes about halfway up the back of the dress -- it *does not*! This is, essentially, a backless dress (with just the black criss-cross fabric). Thank goodness I had a black tank top to wear under it or I wouldn't have been able to wear a bra (and no bra, no dress)! The fabric is a little stiff and poufs out at the waist unless you keep smoothing it, but it was a cute, comfortable dress that was perfect for a pretty casual birthday date night. Wore it with black heels and a black cardigan because winter won't go away and it worked perfectly.

This dress was the hit of the wedding reception!
The size 6 fit better in the waist and straps, but was too small in the bust so I went with the size 8. That meant the straps were a little loose and it was very low cut (something to be aware of). I loved the little bra strap holders, but because it was so low cut it was a bit difficult to find a bra that didn't show in the front. I also rented and wore the Anton Heunis Colorblocked Crystal Necklace which was perfect. Great color, great fabric, perfect length for shorties and pockets! Everyone was bonkers over this dress and the necklace.

I had to go from a work event to a glitzy party and this dress was perfect for BOTH events! Love.
Fits true to size, a little low cut if you've got a big bust, but this dress made me feel glamorous and fabulous. Sassy red and lacy -- definitely not your typical LBD. It was comfortable (rides up a little when you sit down) and with a little tweaking (add a t-shirt and jacket) it went from business to party effortlessly. I got so many compliments on this dress and felt like the prettiest girl in the room. My first rental and I'll definitely be doing it again!
