In love with this dress
I wore this when my partner and I had a couple friends over to our place for dinner. It was so comfortable it felt like a house dress but liked so glamorous. I could see erring this to an evening wedding. Also it kept me warm enough to eat outside when it was a wee bit chilly.

very fun bag
Wore to a raver party and it was great. Unfortunately when it's full, it leans out from the top and droops a bit. Don't put too much in it and you should be fine.

Fun bag
I'm trying hard to downsize my handbag game. So I've been experimenting with different size lady bags and mini bags and while I really like this, the interior is a wee bit smaller than I would like. A compact wallet, iPhone 8, some gum, a lipstick and a small spare battery are all I can fit in it. It's also a bit tricky on the open/close front with the arrow latch even though that's the best part about it. The detachable strap is cool in case you want to use it like a clutch, but it's definitely a little heavy and large to hold under arm for any length of time

Beautiful comfortable unique
Got huge compliments on this one. It's a show stopper and versatile. Wore it to fly to Palm Springs, then again out to a nice dinner, and again to a picnic. Strangers stopped me to tell me how amazing it was. Can't wait to rent again!

Pretty strap, but weird length
The handle is pretty, but it's also stretchy and an awkward length. It's an interesting bag overall, but the handle was too short to be a shoulder bag or cross body bag, but too long to be a hand bag.

Perfect dress for warm weather
Took this to Mexico and wore it every other day. It's so light and loose that it's perfect for humid climates. Fit great. And multi-functional, it was nice enough for evening and casual enough for daytime.

So cute I bought it
This is very comfortable and super cute with Jeans. I ended up seeing it on sale at a Zadig & Voltaire boutique and bought one for myself. I wear it at least once a week. Great silhouette for tall skinny girls. The sleeves are actually long enough!

A great comfy coat with funky flair
I felt like rockstar in this coat. It's so cozy and warm, it feels like being wrapped in my favorite blanket. Looks great with just about everything, including jeans. Paired with some leather Moto pants on a brisk New York day, I was channeling Rene Russo in The Thomas Crown Affair. Tres chic! It does run a bit large and has a straight silhouette, so it's boxier than you might get from the pics.

Most fun ever!
I took this to nyc as an evening bag and we had so much fun showing it off everywhere we went. The tiny caviar spoon is hilariously awesome. It's perfect size for a smartphone, some makeup, gum or mints, and I even squeezed my glasses in there. The removable shoulder strap is nice for if you go dancing and don't want to juggle your cocktail with your handbag.

Looks more slouchy and boho than photos
I thought this bag would have more structure but it was a bit floppy and soft for my taste. Also the leather strings hanging off the zippers and flap are very Stevie Nicks-esque. Think Kate Hudson in her early years. Still, it's cute and of good quality

Unique and fun... perfect for a museum opening!
I rented this for an exhibition opening at the Smithsonian where the dress code was "#burningman festive." I created a headpiece and added some twinkling lights (string of led's stuck to my body with bandage tape LOL) and I was stopped so many times by people telling me how striking the dress was! To note: the long is short for a long. I'm 5'10" and ended up wearing flats, because my 2" heels were showing a bit too much. But that just meant my feet were comfy and added to the drama of the flared hemline.

Show-stopper!
I get why many women couldnt fit into this dress in the boob area. It's cut a certain way. I was lucky, it fit me perfectly with a black strapless bra. My boyfriend couldn't stop saying "wow!" All evening. *I have been wearing a 6 in most dresses lately but the 4 fit perfect so I'd say it runs a tad large.

The perfect New Years dress
This dress is a true showstopper! I wore it to a New Year's Day block party, and I think the dress has it's own fan club now. It's super comfortable, but can be a bit warm. I love it so much that I bought it (and I rarely buy dresses) Best compliments of the day: "Lots of people are wearing sequins today, but you're making a statement with that dress!" "You win for best-dressed here!" "Where did you get that dress??? Its Uh-Mazing!!!"

My boyfriend couldn't get enough of me in this. I wore it out to dinner one night with sheer black hose and pumps, then paired it with opaque dark green tights, a black moto jacket, and ankle boots for a more casual look. Also worked on my long torso.

Small but sweet
This bag is very tiny... it barely fit my iPhone 7 and credit cards, plus a skinny tube of lip gloss. But what more do you really need? Was especially cute at the under-the-sea themed restaurant we went to because it kind of looks like fish scales.

A little short in the torso
I had rented a small and it was a bit large in the chest, so I tried renting an extra small but it was way too small and too short in the torso. Tall skinny girls with smaller busts: not a great fit.

Super cute, but runs very large.
It was way too big in the waist and hips on me. As a matter of fact, the size smaller is also a little big. It is so cute but definitely recommend order a size down.

Doesn't quite look like the photos
The sequins are sort of a matte greenish gray, and they are reversible to white so you can flip them around to make more white spots. Unfortunately the combination up close isn't all that compelling and address just looks a bit drab in daylight. I'm sure it would look better at night, but in the end it fit all wrong. Too big in waist (I'm a 29) and hips but too tight in shoulders and arms.

Great bag for every day
This is a great bag. It's the perfect size for every day if you pack like a sherpa like myself... I can stow a light scarf or jacket in it when I need to carry an extra layer around, but it doesn't look hugely bulky. It has lots of nice pockets for all of your things. The only complaint is that the chain sort of jangles around and makes a bit of noise so if that sort of thing bothers you, this bag might not be your favorite.

Lovely shirt for every day
I love this shirt! Unfortunately it's dry clean only, so as an every day shirt it's a bit of an investment, but my boyfriend loved it so much he talked me into buying it anyway.

Endless Compliments!
It's a little big in the chest compared to the photo. I couldn't get a smaller size in time for my event, so I decided to put a belt on with it. People stopped me everywhere to compliment the dress! It's very comfortable although it little warm. I sweated more than usual in it. Also tall ladies beware: It's pretty short in the back!

Awesome dress, lots of compliments!
I rented this last year for a trip to Greece but could only get a 4 at the time, and it was a bit big on me. I still liked it and wore it but I had to keep the chest safety pinned so it didn't gap out and show the world my b**bs every time I bent over. Now, I've put on a little weight since then, but I decided to take my chances and order the size 2 anyway... va va voom! The dress went from cute to "hello boys!" Looking forward to rocking it on my upcoming vacation...

Not great fabric for warm weather
I liked the fit and look of this. It seemed like a good maxi to take on my vacation to the Caribbean, so I gave it a test run at home in 70° weather. Unfortunately it just didn't breathe enough for me from the waist up. It's synthetic and quite thick, so it might be better suited to more moderate temps.

Perfect for a garden wedding.
The color was perfect for a sunny spring wedding and the dress was comfortable. It wasn't the most flattering for my slender frame (it made my chest look smaller), but upstaging the bride by looking too sexy is gauche anyway, right? Anyway, topping it off with a big hat to shield my shoulders during the ceremony for me lots of compliments. Definitely go a size down. I normally wear a 4L and the 2 fit great.

Felt like a princess!
I never get to wear these kinds of things, so I created my own occasion... surprised my boyfriend for his birthday with wine and cheese in an abandoned tower that overlooks sf bay. I looked and felt like a princess. The dress was a bit large in the chest and I probably could have worn a 2 long.

Fur has never been so fashion-forward
I've rented this three times in a row and will probably buy it this time around. My friends and I all joke that this coat has its own fan club because when I wear it around, people comment on it left and right. If you're comfortable looking a bit bulky on top and want to turn heads, rent this coat!

The weather was a little unpredictable so I paired this with some black semi-sheer nylons and a leather motorcycle jacket. Finished with some black suede oxfords, it was perfect for my daytime event. As the sunset came things cooled off and I stuck a black crewneck cashmere sweater under my jacket and it was adorably preppy. Will definitely rent again.
