Unique bag
Didn't see anything else like it. Went well with the Badgely Mischka cobalt racing gown. It fit my phone, credit cards/cash, a lipstick, tissues, and the hotel key. Adding car keys would have been tight, but maybe could have stuffed them in. The magnet closure was secure

Adore
I thought these would be too heavy at first, but they really weren't too bad. I took them off for a couple of hours b/w the ceremony and reception, but only because it was windy outside and we were walking around. These earrings are truly unique - Elizabeth Cole at her finest. I even got compliments from the bride on these earrings!

Felt gorgeous in this dress
This dress fit like a glove and hugged in all the right places. Despite this, it was super comfortable and I didn't want to return it! In the pic I am barefoot, but the length was perfect with 3.5 inch heels. It looked nice with heels, and when I switched to flats during the reception it didn't drag. For reference, right now I am bust 40", waist 38", hips 44". I could have worn the 16R for a little more room in the hips, but I think the top would have been too loose. I absolutely adored this dress and would buy it if I could!

Pretty, but short
This necklace was SO much shorter than I expected. I read in another review that it fell about mid-chest, but for me it only reached my collar bone. The picture is of the necklace worn on the longest possible chain. It was really pretty though! Definitely received some compliments.

All day dress
I wore this all day at a conference, and even into the evening it was super comfortable. The MR actually fit better than the LR because I wanted the top a bit tighter so I wouldn't have to wear a bra. Lots of compliments!

Gorgeous
These earrings are even more beautiful in person. The detail is stunning. They are formal enough to wear to an evening event, but small enough to pair with a nice sweater or top and wear to work or brunch. I loved these so much I ended up buying them!

Low key sexy
Form-fitting but the material is quite stretchy. It's also thick enough that it doesn't show flaws (the dark color helped with that too). It says it's Navy, but it really reads more as black - only looks navy if you're holding it up against something that is true black. I love this dress and felt really comfortable in it. Only 4 stars because the cut in the cleavage is quite low and the straps are set a bit wide on the shoulders, so I felt like I had to monitor the top a bit all night. I wore the 10 to a party and the 12 dressed down with a sweater and booties to a concert, and both fit great.

Wonderful dress!
I found the dress to be true to size, and fit very well. It was very flattering and a forgiving shape for a long day of wedding food and festivities. It was extremely comfortable, and even spins when dancing :) Pockets are a huge plus! The picture does not do the color justice. It's a beautiful dress that I would definitely rent again!

Could not wear
Definitely pay attention to the reviews which say that this dress runs a bit small. I rented the same sizes I wore in another DTP dress, and these were both too small. Beautiful dress though!! Will know for next time to size up.

Show stoppers
These were back up earrings for the pair I had selected, and I'm so glad I got to wear them! They are definitely a bit heavy; I was able to wear them all evening, including after party, without pain/complaint, but they did feel good to remove later. They really are stunning earrings.

POCKETS!!
I really enjoyed wearing this dress, though be aware that you should be comfortable with a bit of the girls showing. Didn't wear a bra, not sure how you could with the plunging neckline and low back. It's a nice thick fabric, but not too hot. I wore it for an outdoor bachelorette party in July. Good to dress up or down. The huge pockets were the clincher for me, I didn't have to carry a clutch at all! The skirt was structured and voluminous enough to discreetly carry phone, lipstick, small wallet, and keys without fear of falling out. Edited to add that when I wore this dress, I was about 165 lb.

Gorgeous earrings!
A little larger than expected, though not too heavy. Was able to wear during the day at work, then again that evening for a party without issue. The stones are beautiful!

Beautiful colors
I felt like a princess in this dress. The colors were gorgeous and the fit was comfortable and flattering. The adjustable straps were great, just wore a regular nude strapless bra. Could get away without a bra if you have a smaller chest, though the fabric was a little too sheer for that for my taste. Dress was perfect for early summer country club wedding, and was also able to dress it down for brunch later that weekend. Would highly recommend this dress!

Gorgeous & Unique
I loved wearing this earrings! Got a few compliments including that they looked "art deco". I would absolutely buy them. Only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that the picture online looks pretty different than in person. The main gem at the top turned out to be opal, though when the light caught it for the picture it looked like solid pastel green. I had wanted something a little lighter for the dress I wore, but these still worked out great!
