So elegant
These earrings were BEAUTIFUL. I want to buy them. They're gold and sparkly and pearly. They're the perfect size and visible from afar, but not enough take over your whole outfit.

Fit like a glove!
This dress hugged every curve and fit perfectly. The detailing under the arms was really pretty - it was the reason this dress got so many compliments! I'm 5'1 and the 0P length was perfect for flats and heels and everything in between. I'm a B cup and didn't quite fill out the dress up top, but I had a stick on bra that did the trick. If you have what it takes (if you know what I'm sayin'), then you definitely don't need a bra. The dress provide enough support and is thick enough to smooth everything out. The mermaid cut of the dress was pretty tight in the thighs, especially when sitting. My thighs are a little thicker for a petite person, though. The range of motion in the legs basically starts at the knees down. Doable, but not super comfortable if you're working an event, sitting for long periods of time, or walking a lot, like I was. If you need to do some running around, you can hike up the narrowest part of the dress over your hips, fold the excess fabric over the top, smooth it out, and it looks like a nice tea-length dress! You can't tell if you're not looking too close. It was like a convertible dress!

Loved the neckline and the pockets!
This dress is great for short girls who don't want to risk renting floor length gowns and don't want to risk getting something too short and inappropriate. The high-low cut is beautiful and is the happy medium solution. Pockets were awesome and the neckline is super flattering for a B cup bust. I liked this dress so much, I rented it for two different occasions!

Gorgeous and sleek!
There is a bit of give in the top, especially for size B bust, but it was still quite flattering. I'm 5'1 and was wearing a 3 inch heel. That was about perfect, but still it was a bit long. The slit really helped! You can tell it runs a little long because the bottom of the dress was a bit tattered. The silvery skirt of the dress was beautiful, but it'll definitely show your gut if you have one! So suck it in for photos. The side of the skirt where the zipper was did sort of pucker up, which compromised the silhouette a little. Nevertheless, I got a ton of compliments!

Subtle, elegant, beautiful.
This dress was great for me to work a formal gala without being flashier than the guests! It's perfect if you're not sure what to wear to a black tie event and don't want to stick out like a sore thumb bu being over-dressed or under-dressed. Pockets were awesome. Neckline was flattering. I am 5'1 and wore size 0P and only wore a 1 inch heel and didn't feel like I was tripping over the dress at all. Perfect length!I especially loved the back of this dress. It was a fun, flattering detail on an otherwise pretty plain/subtle dress. It was the perfect amount of "sexy" for a work event.

Super fun color!
The color is really vibrant, which is great for a fun, colorful party. The pockets were great, though they did gape a little, especially with my phone in there. I'm 5'1, and the length was perfect. Not too short for this work party, but short enough to be flattering on a short frame. With a size B bust, the neckline was also flattering but not too low cut for work. You could totally wear a bra underneath, and you couldn't see it because of the nice thick straps. But I decided not to wear a bra and felt really supported and comfortable without one.
