Great strapless dress!
I did wear a strapless bra with it, because the top gapped a bit otherwise. I LOVE the pockets - always my preference for formal dresses. With 2-ish inch heels, the back of the dresses just brushed the floor, which was great; no need to worry about other people stepping on it. I felt like I had to hike the bodice up a couple of times throughout the night, but that's pretty usual for me; I do think it stayed up better than some strapless dresses. One caveat is that the dress has elastic around the top of the bodice, and that part on my dress was worn and stretched out.

Great clutch, fits a ton!
This clutch fit my iPhone 7, chapstick, lipstick, eyebrow brush, a couple of tissues, house keys, and a little cardholder for my license and credit card. The only cons were that the chain was shorter than I thought - just fits over the shoulder, not a crossbody; and it's oddly difficult to open. It took me at least three tries anytime I wanted to open it! Overall, super roomy and I'd use it again.

Great statement earrings
These earrings are great - not overly large, but really good fun statement earrings. They are also super light! I didn't pay attention to them at all once they were in.

Gorgeous dress with pockets
This dress was super comfortable, and had lovely lovely pockets. I didn't end up wearing it because I liked the other dress I ordered a bit more, but this was also a great choice. It was pretty booby, but not so much that I needed to pin it. The only feature I wasn't crazy about was the straps - they're set a bit wider, which makes me feel like they're always slipping.

Comfortable, gorgeous dress for working at Golden Globes!
This dress was FANTASTIC. First - pockets! Big enough to comfortably fit my phone without fear of it falling out. I did wear a strapless bra because the top tended to slip down otherwise, but with the support of the bra it stayed up pretty well. It was comfy and gorgeous, and I felt great in it. Also, if you turn it around so the zipper is on the side, you can zip it up yourself and then scootch it around so the zipper is in the back! Pockets + zipper autonomy :raised-hands:

Holiday Party
This dress was really flattering, and felt great on. It was a little hard to pull over my head with the lining - it'll probably muss your hair a bit unless you're careful. Like most dresses on here, the zipper was pretty difficult. Overall, it was a great dress, and the added benefit of wearing a regular bra with it.

Holiday party
This dress was so great! It had shoulder pads, which I wasn't expecting, but they just added a nice shoulder shape and weren't bothersome or too 80s. The dress had a great shimmer of silver and some bronze, and the zipper was so easy to zip up - I could even get the zipper started on my own, which is unheard of with most of these dresses. It was super flattering, and very comfortable. Plus, I could wear a regular bra with it, which is a huge plus. I would definitely recommend this dress.

Golden Globes!
This dress was super comfortable, pretty easy to move around in. Like many of the dresses, the zipper was a bit difficult to zip, but luckily the hotel desk was nice enough to send someone up to help! The 14 was a bit large in the bust/straps, but extremely comfortable everywhere else, so I opted for it over the 12. I should have worn a bra with more lift, and would plan ahead for that next time, but you can definitely wear a normal bra with this (which I appreciate with 36DD).
