I chose this dress for a black tie wedding and found the dress to run a bit large. My back up size was one size larger when I probably should have gone a size smaller. I am 5'8" and ordered the dress long - it was way too long, even with 3" heels...I was tripping over it all night. The dress is very stretchy and I found the material to be a bit dull (perhaps due to overwear).

The color of this dress is quite stunning and perfect for summer/fall events. I wore it to a black tie optional wedding and fit right in with the other guests. The dress is well made and has a built in bra that is very supportive for a strapless dress. I have a large bust and had to go up a size in the dress because of that.

I didn't realize these were clip-on earrings until I received them. While usually hesitant to wear chip-ons for fear of falling off, these stayed on for the ENTIRE night (9 hours of wear!). They are a bit heavy and large but worked perfectly with my outfit! Since these are large and long, I would recommend wearing without a necklace.
