So what do you think of her look, yay or nay? First off I must say this is a different look for Rachel, who is otherwise pretty conservative and simple. I don’t hate the dress, but I can’t say I love it either. I don’t know if it’s the angle at which this picture was taken or what, but she seems really short...
