Cute dress - slimming style!

I ordered size 8 and 10, wore the 8. Fit perfectly. I'm 5'5" and roughly 140lbs. and currently 36D. I was a little nervous ordering without reviews and I am 5 months postpartum, so wasn't entirely sure about what size to order - but it fit great. I still wore spanx underneath, probably not necessary but I felt more comfortable wearing them. I think the dress felt shorter than it was due to the flared skirt, but I really loved the volume and the slimming effect. Pros: love the style, very slimming. The dress was lined so it had a nice silky inside. The color was gorgeous, my photo in poor lighting doesn't to it justice. Cons: Zipper a little tricky, especially over the waist seam, but not bad. Probably felt more tricky for me since I had to unzip to pump during the wedding. Only other negative was I wasn't used to the bell sleeves and knocked some of my silverware off the table. Overall I thought this dress was super comfortable and cute! It was great for dancing and was perfect for a winter wedding!

Overall Comfort - Loved the Color

I ordered a M with backup as a L and ended up wearing the Large. They both fit but the Large just felt more comfortable overall. I wore my hair up in fear that the sequins would have snagged it. The one things that bugged me about this dress was that the sequins rubbed my underarms and by the end of the night they were a bit red and sore (too much dancing). Overall I am happy with this dress, it was my first time renting and this wasn't a typical dress style I would typically choose (I tend to lean towards the Fit n Flare), but I am glad I tried something different.
