This is more color than I typically wear in an entire month, but I loved this dress! It's stretchy and unexpectedly flattering. When I opened the bag, I was alarmed by how small it looked and I thought even the larger, back-up size would look ridiculous, but I ended up wearing the smaller size. I wish I had remembered to take a picture--the color, length, etc. were consistent with the RTR picture, and I wore it with similar shoes, accessorized with gumball pearl earrings.

Fit: I ordered a 38 and 40 and ended up wearing the 38. The 38 was slightly more flattering, but I would have been happy to wear the 40. The length seemed to be the same between the two. (Before it arrived, I was really concerned that the length would be too short, but it was just long enough to be appropriate for a cocktail party on Christmas with opaque black tights). Pros: pockets - easily accommodated a phone in one and lipstick in the other without looking bulky! Cons: would have been great if the length was slightly longer, enough to make tights optional. Also, I felt like the underarm area of the dress didn't smell great - not that I don't believe it was dry cleaned - and I was somewhat concerned it was noticeable when I reached to hug people. The arm holes are fairly fitted, so maybe that's why. Overall: I felt fantastic about this dress, and I got oodles of serious compliments.
