Shiny, classy party dress-- worked for day and evening
I chose this as a back up for my rehearsal dinner dress- and I was so glad I had!! The original dress didn't work AT ALL! This dress has a snug-bodice and nicely shows off your chest, but has a swishy, full skirt. It went to about my knees-- which I have short legs, so that's expected. I got stopped by women at 2 different locations complimenting this dress! I wore it for my rehearsal dinner with family and kids, then changed shoes and wore it out as a bachelorette-style get together with drinks at a fancy (and haunted!) hotel. It worked nicely for both -- I pinned a corsage on the dress for the dinner, and wore a cute blazer with family around. I could wear it without the blazer for going out. Very comfortable. Pretty similar to Jasmine Rainwater Dress I rented the week before-- cute and princess-y.

Comically unflattering-- glad I had a back up
I rented this as a rehearsal dinner dress for my wedding because it went great with the wedding theme's colors. The pics on the model don't do this dress's color justice-- it is a rich, emerald green with a shiny texture-- almost like a snakeskin. It's a stunningly beautiful material. Then we get to the fit-- I have large boobs, and there was no way that this is designed for a person who is a size 12. This dress has a weird belt/sash thing attached that seemed like it didn't quite fit the design and size. The bodice fit me around the rib cage, but then the neckline/cut went WAY below my boobs. I tried it with and without a bra-- there's no way I was wearing that for a classy event. The skirt length was long/tea length, which would have been really classy and pretty. Instead, the party-up-top cut with the classy skirt? Not so much. Oh well!

Would have been perfect for low-key bridesmaid dress
My wedding included 5 bridesmaids in various shades of emerald and hunter green-- I ordered this as a back up dress in case there was a snafu with color or style for one of the ladies. It would have been a perfect dress for everyone to wear because it fit nicely and has gorgeous lace detail. The emerald green is stunning-- would be great for a spring or summer event, or even an indoor Christmas party. I have a long torso and short legs-- it hit right above my knees, when often dresses that are knee-length sit below my knee. Beautiful dress!

Sparkly blingy earrings so cute for anniversary
These earrings were sparkly and heavy, and went nicely with the shiny blue dress I rented for our anniversary. They were a little heavier than I expected, but they looked very "red carpet." I liked renting the jewelry, and this was my first time getting mystery bling-- however I think these earrings were a little worn out. They seemed a little tarnished to me-- that's why I took off one star.

Beautiful dress with fun pattern
This dress has a fitted bodice and a fluffy, full skirt. I'm long-waisted with shorter legs, so it came to my knees. I didn't like that it squished my boobs up and you could see my bra a little, but maybe some fashion tape would have fixed that. It was a beautiful color floral and very fun to wear. I found it comfy for our "dating anniversary" evening out. The mystery bling of earrings went well. Similar to "So Jaded" dress I wore about a week later.

I didn't get to wear these because the package didn't arrive on time.
I did get to try on these earrings, although my package didn't arrive on time for my bachelorette party. They are very pretty, but really big! I thought they would be very heavy to wear for very long, but a cute statement piece.

I ordered this for my bridal shower and people LOVED it! It's got a beautiful design and colors
This dress is cut a little strangely. The straps are off the shoulder, so you can't wear a regular bra, and the arm holes seem really small (or I've been working out too much!). I ended up going without a bra, and the material was thick enough that it worked great. It's semi-backless. It seems like 2 different materials-- a thicker burlap-like material, plus the heavier satin floral, but it's unique and pretty. It sits a little large around the hips and waist, but I liked the look for my shower. It has a nostalgic, vintage look with a modern material.

Got tons of compliments on how pretty this dress was for NYE wedding and afterparty.
The bodice on this dress is a little tight and the skirt is full and fun! I liked the length because I have short legs but a long torso. Beautiful material with a nice weight and sheen to it. I rented the 14 but ended up wearing the 12. I wore a spanx type undershirt and no bra, which was fun. The top of this dress is kind of plain, so make sure you wear a statement necklace and/or earrings!
