Out of these I like the first dress the best…. But… I think it may be made for a “skinny” girl. I am thinking that the little rosy things will make me look bigger/wider. Hopefully they have it in the store so I can try it on. The 2nd place dress, which I love I am starting to think it may be too low cut. I have some big girls and a tat on my chest. I would be looking like I am going to the VMAs!
Aisha from Hartlyn Kids suggested Rent the Runway! Why didn’t I think of that! I already have an account and everything but have never purchased rented. Basically you can rent designer dresses for close to 10% of the retail price! Should I be paying $500 for a dress that I am going to probably wear once? So here are some of my picks from the site.
Chris Benz
David Meister
Ports 1961
Robert Rodriguez Black Label

Thanks for stopping by our blog at Hartlyn Kids!

November 12, 2011 at 1:32 pmLOL @ VMA’s Hilarious! I Love Love Love the Black Label but I totally understand about the tat(an idea that was so cool/cute when I was 19 has turned into a nightmare on conservative days @ 30) lol. So I think the Yigal Azrouel dress is STUNNING!!!
And Yes I would totally rent a dress IF I couldn’t find one to buy that I absolutely Loved!!

November 12, 2011 at 4:06 pmI love the ports 1961 it looks like a fun dress. I think you can pull off any of them. Renting a dress I think may be a good idea because I hate buying dresses that sit in my closet after the event.

Good luck shopping!
Personally I wouldn’t rent the runway…I like to own what I am wearing and would be so nervous the entire time that I was in it..that I would spill, snag or stain the garment..but all that said I have a few friends who have had great experiences with that site.
Happy Shopping! Hope you find something fabulous!

November 13, 2011 at 4:34 amThat’s Ports Dress is hot!! For events like these I would surely rent a dress (but you already knew that)… Most of the time, I don’t repeat formal type dresses or I wear them rarely. Just a better option and has worked well for me! Good luck. I hope you get a nice coupon or something!!!

November 14, 2011 at 12:28 amIf you go with Rent the Runway, I am feeling the Robert Rodriguez because it gives me the OLD Hollywood feel. The Ports Dress is nice. So whichever one you chose, you are cute and will look cute in it! Wish Nate and I could go with yall!! Cannot wait to hear about it
