Stylist Review
This bold, bright gown is essential for a formal summer wedding! The vibrant, aqua color was beautiful and in person, as was the beaded neckline. The two slits at the front also made it more fun and flirty. The fit was very true to size but I would be sure to size up for back up since it is fitted in the natural waist and loosely fitted in the hips. Since it does have such a high neck and beaded collar, be sure to skip a necklace and instead pair it with the silver bracelet/bangles and stunning earrings.

Stylist Review!
Such an airy and feminine style for the summer! This Yumi Kim wrap dress is truly the ultimate maxi. The dress is larger in the bust and has a deep V so I would recommend sizing down if you have a smaller bust. It is also loosely fitted in the waist (can be adjusted by tying it more loosely or tightly) and not fitted at all in the hips which makes it comfortable and much easier to size. It also does run on the longer side so I wouldn't recommend it if you are petite!

Stylist Review!
This is such a sleek and modern formal gown! The cutouts, while larger than expected, bared the perfect amount of skin for a subtly revealing look. It was very true to size and since it had some stretch, it was very comfortable as well. At 5'7 it did run a little short on me so ladies who are 5'7 and above, be sure to rent the long length!

Stylist Review!
I fell in love with the delicate lace of this dress! I loved the color in person as it was much more vibrant and closer to peach than the cream. The fabric had a great deal of stretch, making it comfortable and easy to wear. While it does have give, it is still fitted in the hip area and I would size up for backup if you have more full hips. Overall, I loved this style and think it would be perfect for a bold bride to wear for her bridal shower.

Stylist Review!
While a tulle skirt is not typically my style, I loved the playful look of the Katerina Dress! It ran mostly true to size but I would be sure to size up for backup, especially if you have a full bust and/or hips. As someone with a pear figure, I found the fitted skirt beneath the tulle to be a little snug and would have had the perfect fit with a size 6. This style is an attention grabber but should still be given some sparkle with the perfect accessories. Pair it with bold, yet delicate crystal accessories to complete your look!

I absolutely loved this style! It ran on the larger side so I would be sure to size down. The dress it made of neoprene so it has a ton of stretch, is super comfortable but also very thick - definitely a style to save for the fall and winter. The dark, floral print is gorgeous and an excellent way to carry your love of floral print from fall to winter. I can't wait to rent this for an event once the weather cools down!

Stylist Review!
With the deep-v and mini hem, this dress is perfect for a night out! This style is super unique and I think it would be great for a bold bachelorette. It is runs very true too size but I would size up for backup for full hips as the dress is only secured with the closure in the midsection. Since I have a smaller bust, I found it loose at the top and would definitely need to keep it closed with fashion tape.

There is no doubt that this is a stunning, princess gown! The tulle and delicate, gold lace make this gown ultra feminine and perfect for an incredibly special event. While it does run true to size, be sure to size up for backup due to the snug fit of the waist, bust and lace sleeve. Also be sure to wear with either a nubra or no bra as the back of the dress is sheer and any bra will show. Since this gown is such a showstopper, I would keep accessories simple and pair it with a pair of complimentary earrings to complete your look!

This style is perfect for a garden party or outdoor, summer wedding! Such an easy fit, with light weight fabric and a bold and beautiful print. It fits true to size but I would be sure to size up to for backup to avoid any discomfort in the waist. My favorite part of the dress is the deep-V back - it makes the dress even more flirty and fun! And while it does have an open back, it has plenty of room in the chest (with a bit of stretch) so no need to shy away if you do have a more full bust.

This jumpsuit is perfection! It runs true to size but size up for backup if you have more full hips.The fabric has a bit of stretch so its comfortable and easy to wear while still remaining polished and fun. If you have a smaller bust like me I recommend fashion tape to keep everything in line, as this style is definitely best for a more full bust. Pair it with a statement earring or bold cuff to complete the look!

This ring is stunning! I loved the look of the balls in different metallic's. Since this ring is large, it was on the heavier side but it fit each of my fingers perfectly. I was never afraid of it sliding off!

This bracelet is the perfect day to night accessory! Even though it wasn't adjustable, it has a hinge opening which makes it easy to fit most wrist sizes. In the future I want to pair it with its black counterpart, the Ella Carter Dylan Bracelet!

Such a bold statement piece! This necklace is the perfect piece to throw on to dress up any outfit. It dressed up my white tank and jeans instantly! The large cluster of crystals put it on the heavier end of the spectrum but it was still comfortable to wear.

There is nothing that I didn't love about this ring. The pave detailing elevates the glamour without making it feel too glitzy for everyday. It was also super comfortable and easy to wear on any of my fingers. Wish I could buy it!

This necklace is one of my favorites on the site! The pave detailing truly makes the tusk pendant standout. It's perfect for everyday wear and since its short it would be perfect to layer with one or two longer, more delicate necklaces. I love it!

This bracelet was a bit heavier than expected but the secure clasp made me feel comfortable enough to move around without fearing I would lose it. It wasn't adjustable but fit perfectly on my wrist. Since it has so much sparkle, I'd love to try it again for a more formal event!

These are definitely a statement pair of earrings! The light colored stones make them easy to match with most things in your closet. They were a bit larger and heavier than I expected them to be but that definitely won't prevent me from renting them in the future!

This necklace is stunning! It's a lot more glitzy than what I normally wear but I loved the sparkle! It is extremely light weight for its size and I barely felt like I was wearing anything. The quality is also amazing which makes it a steal for the $10 rental price.

I paired it with the Kate Spade, Aqua Avenue Dress and the blush and various green stones were the perfect accents. It was large and on the longer side but since it was adjustable I was able to play around to find the perfect length. This necklace would also be great with a summery, white dress!

The necklace was large but had an adjustable length and was surprisingly lightweight for its size! I loved the looked of the blush stones and while I wore it with a more casual dress, it's so versatile that you can definitely wear it for a more formal occasion.
