Beautiful but too short for a 5'9" gal
This is the second time I have ordered an R length of a dress and found it to be too short - the first time, I was able to make it work as it wasn't too bad, but this one was WAY too short - it was the dress version of capris on me! I loved the dress in every other respect however - it is flattering, comfortable and a little playful. I think in person it actually comes off as slightly less formal than in the pictures, which is a good thing. I would recommend this dress to someone 5'6" or shorter headed to a black tie wedding or gala.

Understated but funky!
I really liked these earrings a lot. I wore them to a wedding and they perfectly walked the line between funky/untraditional and understated. They didn't scream "LOOK AT ME" but when I tucked my hair behind my ear or was chatting with someone, I inevitably got complimented on them. I paired them with a bright coral dress for an outdoor wedding and thought they were fantastic!

Sleeves were too small :(
When I opened up the box, I was so excited to see the dress because it was SUCH a gorgeous blue. I couldn't wait to put it on and opened it up immediately. The bottom half fit fine, but then my arms wouldn't fit in the long sleeves! There isn't a lot of stretch to the fabric unfortunately, so I can't recommend this dress for anyone with bulging biceps (which I possess apparently)!

The perfect amount of sparkle!
I rented these to go with the gold Badgley Mischka Award Winner gown and they matched beautifully. Not too big and gaudy, but noticeable enough that I got compliments since I had my hair up. I felt like the rental price was really fair - they were a little worn but perfect for a one night rental. Even though doing an accessory was an impulse decision, I will be definitely renting accessories with my next dress since it worked out so well!

This was the perfect dress for a romantic Valentine's night!
This dress was absolutely beautiful and surprisingly comfortable. It is simultaneously stretchy enough to give a little when you sit, but structured enough that even someone with a larger bust, like me, can go bra-less and still feel well supported. My only critique is that based on other reviews, I thought this dress would be longer than it was. I am 5'9" and found the R to be too short - I wish I had ordered the L - it hit around my ankles. Since I was wearing nude shoes and knew I would be seated most of the night, I just went with it and I am glad I did!
