Elegant Fun!

The dress is absolutely stunning and the print is even prettier in person than it is online. The fit, while it doesn't show in photos, is rather odd. The dress is is actually one piece with the skirt part zipping all the way up the back and then the second piece zipping over it. I couldn't get that first layer zipped all the way up -- even though I took my normal size and am fairly small chested-- but the second piece zipped over it so no one could tell! My other caution is that as a long waisted person the fit was tough, it wanted to sit high on my waist and it rubbed a bit at my neck. All that being said I felt lovely wearing the dress and had a great time dancing in it at my sorority formal.

Pretty but didn't fit right

The dress was lovely and very festive, perfect for the holidays. It fit snugly on my waist and created a great hourglass look. Unfortunately I was not able to wear it as the bust was very large and the straps were falling off my shoulders when I moved - a big problem since I intended on dancing. I would not recommend this for people with smaller busts and narrow shoulders. Pears beware.

Excellent touch!

These earrings are rather large and a bit heavy but they gave my outfit the extra sparkle it needed. While they are heavy and clip-on they actually stayed on for most of my night of dancing but they did fall off towards the end so that is something to be considered if you are worried about losing them but overall I felt that they were perfect!

Perfect for a night of dancing!

I wore this dress to my sorority formal and it was perfect! The fabric was beautiful and the colors are even more vibrant in person. The dress ran a bit long so I would suggest buying hem tape just in case, or as a last minute resort just use masking tape like I did. I would definitely suggest ordering a size up as your back up size. I usually wear a four, and often times a 2 in things that fit at the waist, however, I needed a six in this dress. It fits very tightly under the ribs and around the waist but it gives you an awesome shape! My only other kvetch is that the back is different from the picture. When I got the dress the back was not open at all, instead it was just a halter dress with a normal zip up back.
