Beautiful back up for Mexico wedding!
Perfect combo of structure and stretch. The background is light blue, almost light denim color. The belt is a bit awkward, I had to pin down the "wings" to get them to lay flat. Overall, very comfortable and flattering. Lots of compliments!

Beautiful, vibrant colors
I'm sad that this dress was a bit tight. I could've worn it, but not comfortably enough for a whole evening. Material does not stretch or give.

Green in honor of St. Patrick's Day
Wore this for a fundraiser luncheon on St. Patrick's Day. It was a bit tight,as the underlay is silk and didn't stretch. Unfortunately the size up wasn't available, or it would've been perfect. Vivid color, photographs we'll. Only other con would be that there are pockets that gape a little... it could be due to the snug fit on me, or a previous renter carried many items.

Comfortable fabric, dressed up or down.
This material resembles a black denim knit. I was expecting a more refined fabric. Luckily the style of the dress brought it up a notch, despite the casual fabric. Definitely not for a "black tie" affair, but relatively formal.

Simple but classy.
I was surprised that the dangling part of these earrings were more like tassels (made of fabric). Regardless, they were the understated accent that my dress needed.

I received tons of compliments on this dress and it photographs very well!
This dress runs true to size, maybe a little big. It has pockets, which are awesome for a key or lip gloss. The v-neck was just right for me, not too revealing. You could always wear a cami underneath for a more modest look. The waist hit at just the right spot to camouflage my post-baby tummy. The color cascades from bright blue sequins, down to a darker tone at the bottom, making it coordinate with blue or black. The cap sleeve allowed free-movement of my arms, but if your arms are a little "meaty" you may have some sequin scratch on the underside, like I did. At the end of the night, I applied a little neosporin and in 24 hours, I didn't notice it anymore.

Looks better from afar.
This was my original pick. Unfortunately, there was no upsize. The material did not have any stretch or give, I was worried it would be too constricting to wear all night. Additionally, the arms do run pretty tight and they were a crochet-lace material. The color, shape and sleeve length were very flattering.
