gorgeous gown
this is a really gorgeous gown - I felt like the center of attention as it shimmered amongst the others in attendance. it is a lovely rose gold color, and the sequin detail is beautiful, although I did feel a bit like I was leaving a trail of sequins behind me, and I had to snip a few loose threads sticking out. overall the fit is true to size - I would have liked to wear the 14 (my normal size) as it fit better through the body, but the length was too short (14R) to wear with heels, so I went with the 16L, which was a little looser and a bit long (but anything is better than a too-short ball gown!). the loose fit worked with the style of the dress though. I would recommend wearing shapewear as there is no structure to the gown. you can wear a regular bra though, which was a huge selling point for me :)

beautiful piece
Really lovely necklace. Went well with a variety of outfits. It's got some weight to it, but it makes it feel like a nice quality piece, not cheap feeling at all. Adjustable length. I loved it!

gorgeous
I loved this bracelet! I didn't want to send it back. It's very beautiful, and can be worn to a fancy event or just to dress up your everyday outfit. It's a little tight, so it basically just stayed put on my larger wrist. The jewels were lovely and the gold tone complemented a wide variety of outfits. Definitely a great piece.

not a fan. felt like I was wearing a corsage on my arm. also, it was super tight, so avoid if you have larger wrists.

vibrant color!
Really nice necklace, provided the perfect pop of color I was looking for. I even matched my nail polish to the necklace :) I would definitely recommend this piece.

flattering silhouette, beautiful color
This dress was perfect for the wedding I attended. I liked the color, the flared skirt, and the pockets :) The fit was flattering for my body type. The only thing I didn't like about the dress was it was not very comfortable, and it was impossible to raise my arms above my head as the sleeves are extremely tight. If you have large shoulders, I would recommend ordering your regular size and a size up for your backup. (note: not sure why my bust size is listed at 34B above - it is actually 40D)

very pretty
I rented these to potentially wear to a formal gala, but ending up wearing the necklace I got instead (would've been too much together) and let my friend wear the earrings. They were perfect as the main statement piece.

felt like a movie star!
I wore this dress to a formal gala, and it was perfection. The overall fit was true to size, but the length was definitely short for this kind of formal dress. I am only 5'5" but after reading reviews, decided to order the longer length, because I wanted it to hit the floor while still being able to wear 3" heels. I also decided I still wanted to wear a strapless bra for a little extra support, and just pulled it down in the back so it didn't show. Overall, the dress is really beautiful and I received compliments on it all night long - and probably converted several people into new RTR customers :)
