Elegant, well-fitting and understated
I wore this to the Kentucky derby with the idea that my red fascinator should be the statement. Compared to the other fashion, it was probably too understated than I would have liked. But that was my fault. I loved the dress! It was a great fit, elegant and had enough details to feel special while still being understated. It would go well for cocktail party as well.

Nice and light
I was worried they would be heavy, but for their size they are very light. A more sophisticated take on the tassel trend.

Sooo comfortable and glamorous
This dress was so comfortable and fit like a glove. I am between sizes and went down, but either size would've worked. I wore Spanx (but I'm not sure it was necessary) and a regular bra. I loved the modern and layering cut. I felt very glamorous and got a ton of compliments. I would buy this dress!

Lived in it!
I loved this dress for our tropical vacay. Even thought it was a little big up top, it worked and was super comfy. I got lots of compliments, and many people asked me if I had bought it there.

Small at waist and big on top
This just got weird. I probably could've worn it, but I didn't feel comfortable.

Hot and a little stiff
I liked it ok, but I rented for a tropical vacation. And it was hot and a little uncomfortable. Makes great pictures!

It was not nearly as short on me as it is in the picture. But, the fit was a little too roomy.
It was good enough for me to wear it a couple of times for work/ dinner events, but I didn't feel super special in it. I think sizing down would have been good for me. Love the colors and the print. Flared sleeve detail is very cute.

Pretty dress
This was a little bit more formal than I thought it was going to be. I had a evening work dinner so I wore a black jacket over it. It was pretty, but I think it was a little too formal for my event.

Just sexy enough
I rented this for a work event, and it was perfect it was conservative enough so that I didn't feel out of place, but it was just sexy enough that I felt a bit glamorous. I ended up going up a size just because it was a little bit more comfortable and a little less sexy.
