felt red carpet red with these sparkles!
while these earrings are on the bigger side, they are not clunky and they do not weigh down your ears. i loved wearing them and they match everything. they actually originally came to complement an dress that didn't work out and when RTR said they would send me a new dress but i had to keep the same accessory, i was nervous. they turned out to be my favorite part of the outfit and just wish i had a pair like this to wear all the time! definitely good to wear to any event where you want to be formal, and maybe a little flashy :)

do i have to mail it back?
love love love this dress. first off, love vanity sizing. definitely order your typical size and one size down and i can almost guarantee you'll size down. i'm busty but smaller in the torso that hips/thighs. this dress is tighter at the waist so if hips/thighs are your concern too, this dress conceals and flows over any size on the bottom. it's a very soft/satiny material but not too much sheen. not as structured as it looks in the photo. a perfect spring or summer sun dress. i wore this to my best friend's casual wedding rehearsal (gorgeous bride pictured right). was perfectly comfortable the whole night. didn't even need to wear a bra (tmi?)! lots of colors in it, but paired with simple silver jewelry, nude heels. bottom line: there aren't a ton of "casual" items on this website. i'd love to see shirts, jackets, and casual outfits for rent too. this dress is certainly on the casual end of the spectrum, but it's still formal enough to wear to a cocktail or wedding because of the material.

classy meets sassy
+fits like a glove, fits like an herve +pretty magenta color +easy to match accessories to -photographs differently in each pic i took, lighting really affected color -i'm bustier and the lines that should contour below the chest were a little off the mark -i'm 5'3" and the dress was just above the knee-- this cut may be better for taller women note: i ordered a small and medium and went for the small. they both fit but herve is more flattering when it's tight. the medium bunched up a bit. that said, when you wear this dress, it is easy to be "poochy" in the stomach region... spanx or sucking in are key.

Great little number. Very beachy-preppy-classic.
While I obviously failed by not taking a picture with it, I can assure you that it was a great little clutch. Enough room for my phone, small wallet, lip gloss, gum, keys. Very fitting for a summer wedding or a resort getaway and it can be dressed up/down. I wish it had a strap bc I'm not the hugest fans of clutches usually but this one was a winner. Cute details too like hot pink cloth lining the inside.

Felt like a LADY & a DOLL.
This dress is perfection. I ordered the 4 & the 6 since I have a smallish waist and bigger hips/butt. The 4 fit like a dream because the waist is really the only part that cinches in. The material has a little sheen so it's nice enough to wear to a cocktail party but casual enough for day. Pair it with a pair of retro inspired or bold colored heels (I chose fuschia retro ones). I didn't end up wearing the necklace I got with it because the bows by the neck made it seem too busy. I'd pair withe earrings/fun bracelet only. I wore this for my birthday party at a cupcake shop and it was better than I could have ever hoped. I wore it thinking it's my birthday so I can wear something fun, who cares, but it was crazy how even guys at the bars after the party ended kept saying how much they loved my dress. This is the kind of dress that's made for RTR. Really fun, stand out, and memorable to the point that if you take pics in it, you basically can't wear it again so there's no point in owning. If you have a body like mine (busty, hippy, booty with smaller waist), RENT. THIS. DRESS.

I was told I looked like Kim Kardashian at least 10 times :)
I wore this dress in a small for a charity cocktail party. It was between this and another Herve but this one was the clear winner. Extremely flattering to an hourglass figure with the black bottom half and ombre top half. Note, the small will run large in the chest, and it is a deep V (this is good or bad depending on your body type)! I am also pretty short so despite the tight fit and deep V, I still felt classy enough because it hit just at the knee. I only wish I had bigger diamond earrings to pair with the bun. I had planned on doing down and wavy hair but when I saw the great racerback detail, I had to wear a bun instead. Great dress for any cocktail party, NYE, or a big night out... Might be too long for of dancing if you're 5'4" and under.

It's a good Vegas dress
I rented this dress and another Herve for a philanthropy cocktail party and ended up going with the other dress. This one is a lot of fun but it is definitely on the "wilder" side. Hugs ever curve so make sure you have them in the right places or else it might not be the most figure flattering. I would totally choose this dress for a trip to Vegas, a night out that involves dancing at a club, but I would say it fails when it comes to being uber classy.
