Call me Melrose obsessed, but I grew up with only two posters of teen heartthrobs on my wall (well they weren't teens but I was aspiring to be:) - Keanu Reaves and Andrew Shue! Earlier this year, one dream came true when I met Keanu Reeves unexpectingly- we bought his office furniture and he showed up to deliver it to us, which was quite a shock!   Today - dream #2. Andrew Shue stopped by our office to talk shop and of course we couldn't resist snapping a pic! The star of Melrose Place has kept himself busy as founder of CafeMom and I must mention is still totally adorable! I hope after completely embarassing him in such a public way, he will continue to want to partner with RTR! -- Jenn     Read More

We've all been there: the best part of Thanksgiving is your grandma’s homemade stuffing, gravy and pie. Can you look chic and be comfortable at the same time? Not to worry! Our stylists have the run down on how to wear fitted dresses for a big Thanksgiving dinner.   Tip 1: Wear a dress with lots of stretch. Stretchy dresses will breathe and expand with you, so you won’t have to worry about feeling constricted during dinner.   Tip 2: Ruching, ruching, ruching! Dresses with ruching distract the eye from the midsection and attract attention to the outline of your curves. Why do you think the Kardashian’s wear it all the time?   Tip 3: Choose dresses that have more of an open neckline so that there is more exposed on the upper half of your body.  If the dress has a higher neckline, wear a statement necklace or statement earrings to balance out the look and distract the eye.   These are some of our best fitted dresses for Thanksgiving dinner. Do you have a tip? Share it in our comments!                                                                  Read More

Pumpkin pie, midday naps and way too much to eat… Thanksgiving is here! Just because you are staying in for the holidays doesn’t mean you have to be in sweats (remember, the neighbors are coming over). Here are a couple of our favorite casual Thanksgiving looks to keep you fashionable throughout the feast.  Which one is your favorite?  --Ashelyn   Emily Empress Dress This dress is so comfortable you can go from the dining table to the couch for your post meal nap. If you are heading somewhere chilly, layer it with a Rebecca Taylor fur vest and some flat boots for a country casual look.                 Doll Lace Dress Worried about showing a Thanksgiving Tummy? Wear this sheath to cover it up and go ahead and take a second serving. We suggest flats and tights to keep it cute and casual.                         Neptune Jersey Draped Dress This is the dress you want to wear just in case your childhood crush is stopping by for dinner! The jersey material on this dress makes it stretchy and comfortable, but it is still fitted and sexy. Complete your look with the Gwen Wrap Bracelet to add a dash of bling.           Read More

Now that the stylists have shared their picks, I wanted to offer a few of my own. With holiday party season heating up, every girl has their eye on some sparkly sequin dresses. I've been honing in on two of our newest pieces that are simply party perfect. These sequin dresses are both unique, easy to wear and very figure flattering.   The gold Tibi Confetti Sequins Dress is a mini dress with a great shape - perfect for shimmy-ing the night away on the dance floor. The blue Gryphon Casino Royal Dress offers a slightly longer sheath option that looks works well with high boots. I love them both, but we've got plenty of other sequin styles to choose from. Which one is your favorite? -- Lara     Read More
