The dress is certainly true to size, but if you're pear shaped like me, go ahead and size up. I usually wear an 8 or a 10, but a 10 in anything that hugs my hips. The color is more jade than emerald, making it the perfect spring or late summer dress. The lace overlay and scalloped edges are made with an elegant fabric--the dress looks expensive, which helped me blend right in at an exclusive resort. I didn't originally pick this dress, but when my original dress wasn't available at the last minute, a RTR stylist suggested this one, and I'm so glad she did. Classy, conservative enough to be around an older crowd, but also sexy and stylish.

Definitely doesn't run big, so I went with an 8 as I always do with dresses that are fitted at the hip (I'm usually a 6 with a full skirt). This dress made me feel like a million bucks! It has an expensive look and brings the right drama with the texture, color, and one-shoulder style. I felt like Michelle Obama, and to me, that's high praise! I naturally stood up straighter and held my shoulders back because I felt so confident. Love!

Fit was great. Dress is fully lined and I felt like it skimmed my curves beautifully. The bow detail in the back created a sexy silhouette while the cap sleeve and front coverage rounded out this classic dress. So comfortable, too!
