If you have an iPhone Max or Wallet, this isn’t the Bag
This bag is cute. Very cute…BUT IT’S SMALL. Think evening clutch for the daytime. The way my life is set up, it wasn’t for me. The bag on the outside looks bigger width-wise and the space you have on the interior. I fought to get my wallet to lay horizontally and most times it is so time consuming that I just let it stay vertically and pop out the top of the bag. Not ideal. I recommend only if you are carrying a non-max sized iPhone AND you just carry lipgloss, loose cash and an id minus a wallet.

Orange IS the New Black. Rent it!
This dress is bright in all the best ways. Yes, it’s orange. I’m from NY so right now Orange IS the new Black-go Knicks! The dress is a full zip and it zips you in! Depending on your bust it’s going to lift it for sure. I did not find it to be too low cut. The material reminds me of a mid weight track pant. I loved it. Elevated yet not too serious. It felt great on. I recommend.

Cute. Nothing Special. They Work.
These are basic black shorts. They are well made. They are light weight. They fit. They are true in sizing. They have all the things. That's all. Recommend. Rent it.

Light Weight and Swish Swish
This Natori jumper is light and crisp. The material may annoy some. It's like an elevated rip away pant fabric. That sounds bad but I really liked it. It crinkles but it stays looking put together. This is something you can throw on and look put together when you've not done much. Recommend. Rent it.

Did What it Needed To Do!
Wore this dress to an award ceremony for my kid. Very light weight. There is a little gapping between the first two buttons at the top. I used garment tape. Overall great feel and great fit. Recommend. Rent it.

Work Horse Pants
I wore these pants like hot sauce…I was throwing them on with everything. This was one of the looks. These pants were a large. I needed a medium but I just cinched them extra in the waist. These were the pants I threw on to go to my kid’s track meet, run errands, etc. T-shirt, sweatshirt, button down shirt-they worked. I would have purchased but no way I could justify the price tag on these. Nice rental though and that’s the point. Rent so you don’t have to always buy.

Hot Days are No Match for These Shorts
I rented the set and one day I had to wear a sweater vest with the shirt, and the next day there’s a heat wave and we are rocking shorts. These did not disappoint. The only note is the embroidery can feel a little scratch between your legs after a while. As a whole, great short. Perfect sizing. Easy to pair with a lot of different tops.

Oversized Shirt That Can Easily Be Sized Down
I knew this shirt would be boxy and oversized AND THAT’S OKAY! I ordered a small (normally I would opt for a medium). The May weather did some crazy stuff so I ended up pairing this bit with the cute matching shorts But with a cute boxy sweater vest my daughter made. The sleeves are the star with their detailing so it worked for my casual day to the city. I’d rent again when the weather stabilizes and warms a bit.

Fast Favorite
This top quickly became a fav. It went into the RTR heavy rotation. I held it over another month and may purchase. I love simple pieces that have a unique spin on them. The top is a bit cropped so keep that in mind. An instant classic.

Second Time is the Charm
I rented these before and didn’t love them as much as I do this time. Lost a little weight and they fit better. Love the rivet details. The button fly could be a turn off. Not a fast zip in and zip out. A tiny bit short. Tall persons be aware.

Good Layering Piece.
This is a great layering piece. I just rented too late. I thought I’d wear since the NYC area dipped in temps again, but it didn’t get that cold. The fabric is soft and the sweater top layer is more forgiving to the busty gals. (Smoother look) the white shirt that gives the layered look will need an iron to look crisp like the photos. Will try again in the fall.

Just Okay. Pulling At The Bust
I wore this under a jacket so I let the pulling across my chest slide. If I had to do it again, I wouldn’t. This isn’t the most flattering cut for me. I think sizing up would create too much volume at the sides and I thought the current size was great everywhere but the bust. Probably better for a less busty person.

I thought this quilted jacket was perfect for these late spring chilly days. It could also be a great fall jacket. The fit was great and the jacket was warm but not heavy or bulky. I’d rent again in the fall.

A Tad Long in the Leg But Good
These pants are cute. A bit long in the leg but I wore a chunky loafer and it was fine. They are button fly so if you don’t love all the buttons, don’t do these. A little stiff so if you’re sitting a lot these may be uncomfortable. Loved the color.

Warning. ZERO STRETCH
I loved this top online. However it’s all cotton and with its fitted construction there is zero room to get over your head and get the girls placed. I got big hair so I could not even pass the first stop. Size up. Lesson learned. I’ll rent again and do that. It cinches so you can snatch it with a larger size.

Wore this jacket to my niece's baptism. Perfect everything. Sizing perfect. Jacket is well lined so if it's cooler like it was here in NY the jacket will keep you warm. It probably will be too hot to wear this in the warmer months. Recommend.

This is a super cute slightly different parka. I love that you can cinch the waist and give it a more puffer vibe. I wore several times on the east coast with this up and down weather.

Can't Go Wrong With 3.1 Phillip Lim
You really cannot go wrong with 3.1 Phillip Lim. Probably my most rented designer. Just works. Not too much never too little. This top is super cute. I wish it was a little more chinched at the waist but overall a workhorse for any wardrobe.

Cute. A bit heavy
These were cute and I got the medium which initially I thought would not fit. A little tight going over my thighs but once I had them on the waist fit but then the crotch felt like it was too low. I don't know. I love 3.1 Phillip Lim but these weren't a favorite on me.

Just okay but that's OKAY
I thought this was just okay. Nothing special and likely due to my own styling. It was large but I'm in this weird in between size thing so I'm trying to figure out. I think someone could do this justice. It's flowy so you could size down.

Great concept. RUNS BIG AND IT'S HEAVY
I immediately loved this coat when I saw it. I instinctively picked it and was so excited when it arrived. Yeah...I saw the reviews...Carmen San Diego referenced. I picked it anyway. Welp. Y'all tried to tell me. BIG AND HEAVY. Size down. If it's warm where you are, favorite this and come back in the fall.

Tried the large now the medium…
I previously rented this in grey in a large. It fit but the sleeves were long. I decided to try the plum in a medium and I think this is a much better fit. Super soft top. Not too heavy. Can easily be dressed up or worn casually. Paired with my current favorites, Joe Jeans Bowie jeans I think.

Nice Pants, I Just Need to Size Down...
I have been doing this RTR thing for a minute and some times you can throw caution to the wind and size up/down based on what the inventory is...yeah...this wasn't one of those times. I knew I needed the smaller size, but I said, "YOLO!" literally and this is what I got. I probably would have cheated and made these work (as you see in the first photo) but the second photo tells the true story. The crotch of these things is jingle jangling and we cannot have that! lol. So beautiful pant. I would have loved a lining-but that is the old-school in me. The constuction and details were otherwise great and I thought it went well with the RL top I owned. Next time I will show restraint and wait for my size to pop up.

Great Work From Home Top! Zoom Loves this Top!!
I love this top! It’s soft like your favorite sweatshirt but it’s also easily can be a professional work top and have you looking put together on that Teams, Google or Zoom video call. I love it. Can be dressed up or down. It’s not super heavy in weight nor is it thin. Perfect weight. Recommend. True to size.

CUTE and Heavy!
This cardigan was so cute. Elevated my jeans. It definitely is warm. Nice heavy weight. It’s like a blazer. I found the sleeves to be a hair long but I don’t have the longest arms. The gold buttons were great. They are snaps! I thought that was a great touch.

You Have My Permission to Size DOWN!
Maybe I am getting good at this RTR sizing thing...but something told me to size DOWN in this top. It's super cute and when I saw the blousy nature I went ahead and just got the small. I usually am not a small in anything but I did it and I am glad I did! I paired this with the RTR Joe's Jeans that I am obsessed with! My only issue is that with sizing down, the neck hole is smaller too and as you can see, I have BIG HAIR. That was a bit harder than usual, but it's fine. I love the mixed fabric look so this top was calling my name.

Soft and The Right Amount of Stretch
These jeans fit well. They aren’t stiff. They have great stretch in the right places. The length is good. If you’re looking for really long jeans for heels or platform shoes, these may be too short. They work well for sneakers and flats.

So much nicer in person
When I first received these I was excited but a little bummed because the temps dropped and these are lightweight pants. I decided to wear them anyway and I wasn’t disappointed. The texture of these pants is so nice. I love the attention to details and although they zipper all the way up either no button, the quality of the zipper is such that they don’t unzip. I love them!

Wore this with the T.W..I.N. Button down and pants. They all tied together perfectly. The jacket is light weight but will keep you warm enough on a 50 degree evening. This is another easy staple piece that can work with jeans, slacks, or a dress. Highly recommend.

It Worked but I Will Get the Large Next Time
I think the top worked with my outfit, but I probably would try a large next time just so the top hangs a bit more over my mid section. Now if my tummy was flat flat, I would stay with the medium. I wasn’t looking for the top to be as clingy, but the skirt I wore was so full it balanced out. The top was comfortable. Soft. Overall the fit was good.

Super cute
So I originally wanted my usual size medium but that was not available. This is small. I think it worked. Even with the small I’m able to button and have room. The buttons are snaps which I love. I think a person can likely size down safely with this one. I have a full bust and I don’t have any problem buttoning or having the buttons stay put.

Rent it! It’s Cute!
I rented. Took a few weeks to wear since I didn’t have an occasion. This could easily work with jeans and a slightly elevated night out. I wore to my daughter’s birthday dinner. Well constructed. The fabric is stiff as I would expect with a tweed look. Not sure how comfortable this would be without something underneath. I thought it was super cute. Recommend.

Ummm...I didn't love these.
I thought these would pair well with one of the cardigans I rented. I typically can do no wrong with a wide leg pant, but these were not forgiving in the waist. I have a pretty narrow hips and am pretty straight (boxy) in the middle. The pant waist actually cinched in more than expected. The pants fit while standing but they were not comfortable to sit in. I ended up not wearing these. The material was very nice and heavy. Stitching and hardware were very nice. They just were not the best cut for me body or maybe I need a bigger size. I may try again later in the fall.

Great Fall Cardigan!
I thought this was a perfect cardigan to pair with the RTR max mara pants I rented. It paired beautifully. The cardigan is pretty substantial in weight. I ended up taking it off mid day when temps got into the mid 70’s but in the evening when temps dipped, this was perfect. Great addition!
