FABULOUS earrings, get these!
When I saw these I knew I had to have them. Originally I rented them to go with the first dress I ordered, but a few dresses later and it didn't matter - these statement earrings will go with almost anything. Wore my hair in a side swoop to show them off...but they would work equally well with any hair style. A must-have for any outfit that needs a little sparkle.

Great dress...just not for me!
Tried this one on and was disappointed. I know I need a 14L for my height, but sometimes I can fudge a 14R (there's no 14L available) but this was beyond too short, especially with the stiff fabric it just looked silly. My bf loved the fit saying I looked "curvy and sexy" but for me it was far too tight on the hips, and too large in the bust/shoulders. It's not that the dress runs large or small...it's just for a very specific body type. If you're a true hourglass with ample bosom, small waist, and proportionate hips you will look like a million bucks in this dress. I looked okay - but the fit issues, while not huge on their own (length, hips, bust), all added up to a "not gonna work".

Color and detail was stunning - I got so many compliments!
I ordered this in a 14R because RTR doesn't carry many styles in a 14L - so off the bat I knew it was going to be short. I ended up wearing flats with the dress to mitigate the issue, and I was glad I did anyway because they were more comfortable while still being formal and matched the clutch I rented PERFECTLY. I was a little wary about the top of the dress since other reviews said it ran small - but it wasn't an issue. If anything this dress runs big; although if you have a large bust I'd be careful...anything over a D or DD it's not going to work. I ended up wearing a NuBra just so the dress would fit better on me, as the mesh part was a little loose on me. The fabric of the skirt was stunning, soft and flowy and the knife pleats made a statement. A great choice for a formal event where you still want to be comfortable.
