This is a beautiful dress. I wore this to my cousin's wedding, and this was a hit! I received tons of compliments -- my family and even some strangers were asking where I got the dress. I'm 5'4", 115lbs, a 30-32B, fairly petite with an hourglass-ish shape, and I'm normally a 2. I ordered the 0L and the 2L. The 2L felt a little big - like the sleeves would probably fall. I ended up wearing the 0L which fit perfectly and not too tight. I didn't have to wear Spanx or suck in my belly -- and I ate a full meal! I didn't fuss with the sleeves all night, even while dancing. The length was perfect for wearing 4" heels. The dress just reached the floor without dragging and I never stepped on it once all night. If I had worn anything shorter than 4", the 0R would have been the best bet. The dress hugged my curves very nicely. I love the lace on the dress, but I found a few short loose threads. I didn't snip them off though, since even my sister (who is very much a type-A personality) didn't notice them. I'm guessing the black color camouflaged them. I didn't snag on anything, which was great. The dress seems to be of good quality. I also really loved that you could wear a regular bra with this dress! If you didn't want to wear a bra, that would be fine too since there is some plastic boning in the bust that I think helps a bit. The best compliment I got all night was from my 96 year old grandma who said I looked like a movie star! Grandmas are the best. Thanks RTR!

This ring is very nice. The stones are actually pretty big, so it's definitely a statement piece. Since the ring is adjustable, I actually used it to fasten the Kenneth Jay Lane Pearl Rope Necklace into a choker-style. It was pretty easy and stayed all night throughout dancing. It was also easy to wear on my finger, but I thought the look on the necklace was great. I got tons of compliments for it all night.

This was a fun faux pearl necklace. I'm glad I rented this, because the faux pearl necklace I have that's just about the same length was purchased at forever21 is really light and flimsy-feeling (only good for an everyday fun look). This looked and felt much nicer! I turned it into a 4-strand choker necklace and 'fastened' it with the Elizabeth Cole Crystal Navette Bloom Ring for a little bling. (Yes, I did a vigorous shake test before going out - otherwise, I would have worn the ring on my finger). I got compliments on the necklace all night :)

I was going to my cousin's formal wedding so I thought I would try out RTR. This was a backup dress I ordered since the wedding was Oct 26 and the weather is a little unpredictable around the SF Bay Area. I didn't wear this to the wedding since it turned out to be quite warm, but it would definitely be a nice choice for an event in a colder season. The fit was true to size: I'm 5'4", 115lbs, 30-32B, and normally wear a 2. The 2L was perfect in the body and length with 100mm (4") heels. The sleeves did seem just a tad shorter than what I'm used to, but I'm used to long sleeves that hit just past my wrist to cover the base of my palm. This dress also has gathering around the hips that end at the back zipper. The bunching/gathered fabric makes it so you don't have to booty tooch if you're not that curvy. I have curvy hips so I was a little worried about that, but it actually looks flattering on. I also love the slit! It isn't too high, but still gives a peek of leg that turns this otherwise basic dress a sexier feel. The only thing I don't like about the dress is that the seam going diagonally across the bust made my boobs look kinda weird - like one is higher than the other? lol. Maybe that could have been fixed with a different bra.
