I love the Gryphon Sequin Striped dress! I cannot remember the last time my girlfriends and I took a trip through Downtown Dallas dressed to the 10s.. If I won I'd probably get them all to have a 'Rent The Runway' night with me and go have drinks in Uptown or Hotel Zaza! I'd pair the dress with the Badgley Miscka Through the Looking Glass Bracelet and the RJ Grasiano Pave Double Drop earrings. Now I just have to figure out what shoes... lol

I've been staring at the Nicole Miller Maxi dress (rainforest) for weeks now. I have to have it for St. Patrick's day! It will look so awesome with my red hair (cliche, i know, but true)....

#21 Autumn on 2011-02-25 18:55

I JUST rented two nice dresses for my law school 'prom', but if I won this giftcard, I'd get something nice and go out just because like:

the Herve Leger heartbreaker dress
(http://renttherunway.com/shop/designers/herv%C3%A9l%C3%A9ger_dresses/heartbreakerdress) because its super sexy and since I've lost some weight, I'd feel good in it.

OR since Spring Break is around the corner, this Robert Rodriguez ruffle dress, because I'm not going anywhere fun but at least I can look cute for a night out dancing (http://renttherunway.com/shop/designers/robertrodriguezblacklabel_dresses/ruffledcoraldress)
