VERY cute.
Looks great on BUT the top is very square. If you have underboob, this won't work.

Just not for shapely shorties.
The cute sash bumped my legs as I walked...below the knee. The top was too long for me. The skirt was full and short (even on me) especially because of my rear-end. :) Gorgeous fabric! Would be great on an average height gal with a smaller bottom half. Otherwise, prepare to stay sanding!

Not a flattering fit.

Cute! But small.
I receive endless compliments on this. It doesn't hold much more than a phone but it's too adorable to pass up renting with unlimited. Very well made.

12 was skin tight, 14 fits like a tent
Unfortunately the size 14 in this dress fit more like a 16 and the 12 fit more like a 10. Very odd sizing in the waist. I'm so sad because I actually had my nails done to match the dress for a special work a vent. Oh well! Keep in mind that the stress is very cottony so it will wrinkle and may not look as formal as you would expect in person
Jungle Print Blanca Dress

HUGE - even though I ordered down 1-2 sizes
I ordered down 1-2 sizes as others suggested and it was still huge. I tried tucking/pinning the straps, adjusting the waist height, etc. - there was no belt. I tried my own but it looked odd. Would have been a good length had it worked. Very light, almost see-through material.

too long on top
Too long for a petite gal on top - the waist was too fitted to slide it down and make it fit. Gorgeous otherwise.

Iris Lace Dress

Top rolled down - too long for petite
I would have worn it if I liked tall heels and/or if tape would keep the top from rolling down (even with D's)

Perfect dress but ran very large
I loved this and literally slept in it ;) the flowing back was gorgeous. Had to tuck the back into my strapless though. Don't hesitate!!! Go down a size though.

Fantastic necklace made my dress. Too bad I didn't get to wear the dress. The necklace did come apart at one of the rings but was fixable.

Emerald princess!
The dress was gorgeous however the top was a bit loose. Had to stack up a nice padded bra. Definitely was the best dressed and got compliments all night.

Different and fun
This clutch was fantastic although it had some scratches. The tassel also fell off. It was salvageable and worked out OK. It fit my phone and lipgloss no problem

Fab-u-lous
The dress it's self was awesome. Unfortunately the boning which was constructed with the tiny wires bunched together was poking into my armpit. I wore the dress getting ready but it was just too uncomfortable to wear to my event. Thankfully I had one to borrow. It really looked fantastic.

Not for a shorter gal.
The top was too long for me. About 1.5 inches of extra fabric in the straps. Otherwise, gorgeous material!
