Beautiful for my bridal shower
I actually loved this clutch, and it fit a lot more than I expected - iPhone 5 in an otterbox case, several lip glosses, small wallet with credit cards. I took off a star because the one I received was missing a pin in one of the hinges on the bottom. It was fine when it was latched, but when I opened it, it was loose and falling apart. Otherwise, it was perfect for my bridal shower.

Weird flap in front
I ordered both the 10L and the 12R (since there is no 12L). I am 5'9" and definitely needed the L. Both dresses were brand new with the tags still on, and the fabric was very light and airy. Unfortunately, there is a weird flap of fabric that drapes from the bust down to the waist that just wasn't flattering on my curvy, busty figure.

LOVE these!
I LOVED these earrings, and seriously considered buying a pair. They are not too large, and were the perfect amount of sparkle for the event I wore them to.

Elegant and Sparkly!
I wore these with the Fifth Avenue Showstopper dress, and they were a perfect pair. Perhaps a little heavy, but overall I loved that they weren't too large. They were elegant and eye-catching without being too much. I would rent again.

Showstopper!
While neither of these pictures do this dress justice, I wore it to my annual gala and was told by a donor that it was a "showstopper." I had previously rented this dress in black, so I knew it would fit, but I wasn't sure about the color since I am pretty pale. All told, it was beautiful and fit well, and I would definitely rent again. I found that it worked well for my large bust, so I definitely recommend.

Photographs beautifully!
I wore this to see the symphony and received a lot of compliments. It photographs beautifully and the long sleeves were perfect for an early November night. I rented the L and XL, and the XL gave me a little more room to move around, so that is the size I chose. It was comfortable and the length was perfect, but I wore this with nude pantyhose which was a mistake because the sequins shredded them right at the hem line. Because they were nude it wasn't that noticeable, but be warned if you plan to wear darker tights - you will definitely end up with runs in them (which would totally be worth it, because this dress is beautiful!).

Loved it!
I was going to a wedding, so the small size was ideal to hold my iPhone 5 in it's Otterbox case, a lipstick and my credit cards. Nothing else would have fit, but I didn't want to lug anything else around anyway. The purse I received was in great shape, and I got compliments on the great design!

Beautiful!
I loved these earrings, but didn't end up wearing them. They are quite heavy, and I was worried they would hurt by the end of my event (8+ hours), so I wore some smaller earrings I already had. If I had been going to a shorter event (maybe 2-3 hours?), I definitely would have worn them.

Matching rentals!
I normally wear a 10, but got a 10 and 12 in this dress because I have a full bust and hourglass shape. I was glad I did, because I ended up wearing a size 12. I was thrilled with the fit and dress... until I showed up and another guest at the wedding had rented the same dress! We both ended up laughing about it and calling each other our "dress twin", but we were disappointed to end up looking like matching bridesmaids. I suppose that is a testament to how popular this website is, but I was hoping to stand out. Although I had a great experience with the rental and ordering, I am not sure I would rent again. Or if I did, I wouldn't rent an item labelled 'most popular'. On the bright side, we both had very different figures, and this dress was beautiful on both of us!
