I knew these made a statement and positive impression when I got a compliment from my (male) friend's dad on these earrings! even the fashion blind can see these are great!

Too small up top
loved the print and the length was perfect, however, it was too small on my bust. I am about a 34D at the moment and I was constantly adjusting so they weren't popping out...

Comfy and stylish!
So comfy and classy. It was perfect for a bridesmaid accompanying the bride for her batchelorette night out! Understated but fun. Also, hid my problem spots - upper arms, post-baby belly, etc. ;)

LOVED this dress!!
NOTE: I was about 140 lbs and 32D when I wore the size 6 - post baby - not the same measurements as before!! The colors are beautiful, the perfect alternative to a LBD. The longer sleeve and high neckline gave the right amount of coverage for a professional event. The skirt length also was conservative, yet did not make my 5'3" self look short. The dress was nicely lined, and cinched my waistline to make it look smaller - a great bonus while trying to lose baby weight!! Loved this dress and highly recommend it.

Pointy shoulders
Cool pattern and nice colors, however the pointy shoulders gave it a futuristic feel... like I was going for a date on the Starship Enterprise.. Not necessarily bad, but not the look I was going for. Did not end up wearing.

Modern Baroque Dress

Usual Size: 2

I give it a 10!
NOTE: I am currently about 134 lbs and 32D - post baby!! not the same measurements as entered before.. I got this as a replacement for a dress that I originally got. I love the peekaboo front, and the cut of the skirt. I wore it to judge a scholarship event, and felt great. It was the perfect mix of dressy yet understated. The 6 fit, but was a little snug, I probably could've used the 8 since I am still breastfeeding and my boobs got huge as the event went on before I could nurse.. Oh well. Loved it!

Keep Them Guessing Dress

More fitted than expected
NOTE: I am currently about 134lbs and 32D - post baby - not the same measurements as entered before!! I thought this dress would be more of a 'shift' shape, but the size 8 that I rented (size 4 comparable) was too fitted (form fitting) through the hips and thighs than what I was looking for. The print is lovely, and such a nice color. I am bummed it didn't work out.

Vintage Blues Dress

Lovely summer frock!
NOTE: I am currently about 134lbs and 32D - breastfeeding and still trying to lose baby weight - so my measurements don't match what was put in before for sizing!! Wore this to my 10 year high school reunion dinner. This has such a nice 50s housewife shape to it. Perfect with pearl earrings. Light cotton blend fabric with just enough heft to hold it's shape. The demure neckline was exactly what I wanted to downplay my new boobs (never really had these before baby...). Would definitely rent this again, but there are always new beautiful dresses - so why rent any twice!?

Countless compliments
This necklace is gorgeous and I did not want to send it back. I know, you read that all the time on RTR... but, I've never felt that way before and trust me, I mean it!! I rented it to go with a blush colored strapless dress for a fall wedding. It was perfect. Paired it with simple pearl earrings.

Bump friendly!!
I rented this dress for a fall wedding at 7 months pregnant. For you ladies out there looking for a bump friendly dress, this is a beautiful option. Details: Pre-pregnancy was 120-125 lbs usually wore a size 2, at 31 weeks was at about 148 lbs, and my bust has gone from a 32C to a 36C. Both the 42 and the 44 fit, however the 44 was a bit too loose. The empire waist falls perfectly so there is no constriction of your belly. Wore a strapless bra underneath, and paired it with the Kate Spade Clink Clink necklace. I felt comfortable and gorgeous and received so many compliments! Highly recommended.

Love Kate Spade, didn't love this necklace
I didn't end up wearing this piece. Though I love the color and was looking for a chunky bib necklace, this one was just too big.

Perfect unique piece for party in the city
I rented this dress for a bachelorette party in NYC. I was about 5mo pregnant at the time and wanted something that would show off my bump (a little). This dress was a perfect contemporary piece to go with gold jewelry and a high bun. I loved the dress but wish I had rented the size 2 instead, the size 4 was just a bit too baggy.

Too baggy
This dress was very cute and the print was great. I would rent it again for a daytime, or tropical type event. I had ordered it for a bachelorette party and wanted something that would show off my baby bump (a little), but this was just too baggy! The size 2 fit my bust perfectly (I was about 5mo pregnant at the time).

Perfect sparkle
These were the perfect amount of sparkle to match the Nicole Miller purple sequin dress I wore them with. They were not too heavy. The only time I even noticed them was when I was dancing and twirling and they smacked me in the face a few times! lol

Getting compliments for days after
This is a gorgeous dress. I wore it to a law school formal, and it was perfectly unique yet not over-the-top flashy. I wanted to look classy and sophisticated, and this dress helped me look exactly that. I was getting compliments even in the days after from classmates saying how beautiful I looked! The only reason I deducted a star is for the fit. I knew, after reading all the reviews, that this dress is perfect for tall/straight bodies. So, the straps were a tiny bit long. They puckered a bit in the back, and the hem was a tiny bit long (even with 4 inch heels on). However, overall a great rental.
