Too heavy and no top closure
This bag was not practical. Looked expensive with heavy leather and nice long shoulder strap but no closure at top. Everything would spill out as it had no pockets, zipper or other closure. Wouldn't rent again

Perfect summer dress
This was cool and free fitting so very comfortable on a hot day. Got lots of compliments and felt very feminine wearing the full skirt and bell sleeves. Needed a slip as a little see-through

Lots of complements
I usually wear a medium but large was needed here. Super cute but was low neck and bra showed slightly on side. Also side of bodice gapped so had to keep an eye on it. Wouldn't order it again due to those issues but adorable dress

Loved this ‘Farm Rio’ designs
I am 5’11 so very glad the Medium was plenty long in length and sleeves for me. Love the sheer sleeves and sheer at knee down to boots. Wore it with black dress studded cowboy boots for a ‘boots and bling’ fundraiser theme. Was told mine was best dress at party.

Teddy bear with sleeves too short for me
This coat has a unique pinky gray color but more stylish and luxurious than practical for me. In bitter cold weather, would be so warm if it had another toggle to keep it closed midway down the front. Could feel the cold through front and on arms as sleeves short for my 5"11" body.

All eyes will be on you
This is like something out of a medieval movie. Textured shiny jacquard print about as dressy as it gets. High low skirt very interesting but very wide shape that doesn't flow as a stiff, heavy material. Was not uncomfortable just very striking in the size of the skirt.

Beautiful dressy work or wedding look. Tight fit alert!
This was the classiest dress I have worn. I wore it for a formal wedding but It could definitely impress for a nice work party. Tailored style made it classy along with the satin type material. Powder blue color gorgeous. Very form fitting hugging every curve but not too sexy.

It's a beauty! Small and tight on top
This was perfect for me but you need a smaller bust and flat stomach for this corset like top. Beautiful color and material and flowing skirt.

Made me feel like Cinderella.
This dress is a knockout! The color is striking and the top and full flowing circle skirt made me want to dance the night away. You will not be able to resist doing a big twirl in it.

Too slinky for a family party
This would be a sexy date dress that would have every eye on every curve you have but was too tight and a slinky material for the family party I got it for.

Sweater coat
I like heavy warm sweaters that are roomy and in one size larger than I usually wear, I could unzip it layer it with a blouse under and wear it as a cardigan.

Fun coat
Definitely a standout coat with its houndstooth material and faux fur color. I am 5'11" and it was plenty big for me. Might be too large for smaller women.

Due to its style and heavy quality, it's a standout sweater. Full sleeves and hem give it a boxy look I liked.

Loved it, bought it
Heavy faux fur coat is super warm and stylish as a biker jacket in fur. It's a great color, not black but not brown but went with everything. Wore it so often I had to keep it at the great sale price. I normally wear a medium but wanted it roomy and glad I got the large to layer under it.

Wanted to wear this everyday!
This blouse is just fun, classy, fit great with sleeves good for my long arms. I liked it with black leggings as it is long enough and loose so no need to tuck it in. It's just too cute to cover with a sweater!

Too wild for me
I made a poor choice in this. I am 5'11" and thin / athletic and this did not complement my body. Made me look even thinner and taller due to the bright red stripe going vertically on the side.

Super style!
Even though it was a bit scratchy from being all wool , I would rent this again because it is such an eye-catching, high quality piece. I just wear a lightweight turtleneck under it. It's like a jacket, it is so heavy and warm.

Checks all the boxes
This was my fav of the four sweaters that I rented. I am sensitive to wool so usually have to wear a turtleneck under things but this was super cozy, comfortable, loved the color and ballon sleeves.

Sexy, form-fitting and comfortable
Beautifully styled and colored with stripes and light weight that go with many vests, sweaters and coats. I like the way the turtleneck stripes complemented the Alfaro color blocked sweater. Gets extra points for being silky and so comfy on the skin. It is a crop length design which even with a long torso, worked for me as I don't wear low-rise waists in pants or skirts. Can go casual or dressed up.

Every day tunic is very eye-catching and great with black leggings and boots, short and tall.
Good fit for a slim, athletic figure but would work on curvier bods with a flat stomach. Only downside is that it is a cotton basket weave and I needed to be careful not to snag it or may get pilly if worn too often.

Pretty, flowing vintagey, more casual dress.
Loved the calico style, vintage-look print, material and cut made it flare beautifully at the bottom for dancing. It was a longer length than most dresses, a below the knee midi-length on me at almost 6ft tall. I wear a B cup bra but it was designed for s bustier or wider chest so I wore a C heavily padded bra. It also was very low cut so I wore a white camisole under. Besides that, it worked well for me!

Couldn’t wear dress. Too small
Beautiful dress but couldn’t zip it up, way too tight. The next size up wasn’t available. Am really disappointed! Had to send it back without wearing it.
