Super comfy but not as flattering as I'd like
This dress is lightweight and breathable. I wore it to a casual work function in Phoenix (hot!) and felt polished without being overly sweaty. It runs huge though, and it is high waisted. It felt a bit like a pregnancy dress to me so had to knock it down a star. .

Cute but warm
I liked the style of this jacket - boxy, slightly cropped - as well as the spring colors. However, I struggled with where I should wear it. I originally wore it styled like a blazer, but I got too warm wearing it inside. Then I tried wearing it like a coat, and the shorter sleeves left my arms cold.

It’s a tank top with textured stitching in different colors. It also runs super small. Wouldn’t rent again.

Very oversized
I felt like a parody in an 80s working woman movie in this blazer. It was comically oversized on me. The color was pretty, and I did get a few compliments, but overall a no from me.

Loved this blazer. It’s slightly cropped with cute patch pockets in front. I normally wear size 4-6 in blazers but took RTR’s recommendation for a size 2, and it was spot on.

The most wrinkle prone shirt ever
I absolutely loved the style of this blouse but felt the fabric was awful. It was heavy and wrinkled so easily. I had just steamed it in this photo, and you can already see the wrinkles. The draping was unique, and I loved the sleeves. I wouldn’t rent again though because I felt embarrassed by midday looking all rumpled.

Chic and flattering
I loved how this looked like a skirt and top with the different fabrics. It fit me, but the arms and bust were a bit tight. I’d consider sizing up if you have a larger chest or broader shoulders.

Love!!
I wore this to work and got so many compliments on it! Two things to note - I’m 5’9” and the sleeves were bracelet length on me. And the blazer has a gold glitter thread woven into it which I was not expecting. It is an oversized look. I normally wear size 4-6 in blazers and am wearing size 4 here.

I got this NWT and it is absolutely gorgeous. The neckline has oversized lapels and a unique draped back that makes a statement even when you leave a room. The fabric is silky and breathable. I wore this to the office and got tons of compliments.

Versatile - more casual than office
This sweater is warm and cozy. The fit was TTS, and it was plenty long in the arms for me. I grabbed this multiple times over the course of my rental, even just to wear around the house to keep me warm. The knit is on the fuzzy/chunky side, which I felt dressed it down significantly. I would wear it to the office, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

A different sort of fall neutral
I’m a big fan of Pistola and these pants did not disappoint. They are the perfect color for fall: a brown/plum shade that I could wear with almost anything. I love the wide leg and the length was great for me (5”9). I rented my usual Pistola jeans size and found these to run slightly large, and they stretched out after wearing. I would size down if I rented again.

Cute fall blouse
I loved the pattern and fit on this blouse. It felt perfect for a fall transition piece. I wore it with blue jeans as well as these colored jeans for two different looks. 4 stars because the fabric felt really synthetic. The look could have been elevated if the blouse was silk.

Loved everything about this dress!
The color, the fit, the fabric, the belt - it was all fantastic! I liked how the top was made of a stretchy knit fabric with some structure and the skirt was silky and flowy. Belt hit in just the right place for a cute cinched waist. It’s great for travel as it doesn’t wrinkle easily but the belt set off the metal detectors at the airport. It’s not removable so a heads up if you want to avoid a pat down.

Comfy and great for tall people!
I wore this dress with sneakers while flying and going straight to a casual work event. It’s a button up with a cinch tie waist made of a silky fabric. The buttons were fine and didn’t gape at the chest but the waist tie was a bit too high for me. The sleeves had elasticated wrists which is hard to tell from the pics. I liked them but FYI if not your thing. Overall a solid 4 stars and I would rent again.

Love the oversized and boxy fit!
This shirt garnered so many compliments for me! I wore with black skinny jeans but the back is long enough that you could easily wear with leggings too. It is see thru but comes with a peach colored camisole to wear underneath.

Beautiful pattern but sleeves are short
I picked this shirt because of the bold pattern, and it did not disappoint. The fabric is silky but on the thicker side, so it is better suited for fall or winter. The length allows for a comfortable tuck. What brought down the star rating was that the sleeves are super short. I had to roll them up or else it looked silly on me. If I sized up for longer sleeves, the rest of the shirt would be way too oversized. I liked wearing it while I had it but I wouldn’t rent it again.

This dress is super versatile. I wore with brown heels to work and then dressed down with white sneakers for a party at a country club. Got lots of compliments! The fit is TTS but it is slightly low cut if you are busty.

Cute print, weird fabric
I have mixed feelings about this dress. It’s comfortable, fits well, and has a bold pattern which I loved. However, the fabric is thick with a strange texture, which really turned me off. I also could not get the belt smooth despite steaming and ironing it. This dress had promise but didn’t quite hit the mark.

Hard no for big busts
I rented this for a work trip as I felt it had the right balance between formal and comfortable. In reality, the top is SO tight it looked like a sports bra on me (hello, uniboob!) and the skirt has tons of volume which was unflattering on me. Plus it wrinkles easily. I’m a huge fan of TT dresses but this one was not for me.

Sleeves were too tight!
I love Farm Rio but this shirt was an exception for me. The sleeve cuffs were incredibly tight and I couldn’t wear it. I don’t think my arms are wildly large or muscular; they just have no give or elastic in them. Since it’s designed to be a loose fit, I wouldn’t want to go up a size for fear I’d be swimming in it.

I liked the fit of this dress - skims the body without being tight. The pattern to me is so-so, but I got many compliments on this dress so others seemed to like it. I wore this to work with heels and to a party with tennis shoes.

You need a slip!
This dress is gorgeous! A beautiful color that you can dress up with heels or dress down with sneakers. What you can't tell in the photo is that the bottom part is sheer. For me, the sheer part started right in the middle of my booty. I wore a nude colored slip which did the trick to keep my parts fully covered up.

High quality fabric but fit was off
I liked the style of this dress, and the fabric is thick and high quality. However, I found the top part of the dress to sit really high. It felt almost like an empire waist, which wasn't the most flattering.

Loved but super low cut
This is the cutest sweater set (and both pieces come together in your order). I loved the color and the button accents. It is soft and warm, perfect for fall or winter. I couldn’t rate it 5 stars because the tank top is SO low cut. I wore it to work but needed to keep the cardigan buttoned up. I wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing this in most social settings either unless it was fully buttoned, which takes away from the cuteness of the matching set. If you have a smaller bust, it might work for you, but my C cups were spilling out.

Lots of compliments but not comfortable
I have mixed feelings on this dress. I wore it to work with Chelsea boots and got tons of compliments. The color is a lovely neutral army green. However, I did not feel confident in it. The pleated skirt has a lot of volume, and the waistline ended up right under my boobs which made it feel very maternity. The sleeves were also a bit tight and short. Even though other people liked it, I didn’t love it. I wouldn’t rent again.

Unique neckline but a bit low cut
I wore this for Saint Patrick’s Day. It’s a gorgeous green color, and the fabric is thick and stretchy. It is form-fitting, and the sleeves/shoulders were a tiny bit tight when I first put it on. The neckline is unique and very flattering, although I wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing it to work as it is quite low. It was a bit challenging to find a bra that didn’t show on the sides due to the wide cut neckline.

Fun vest but wrinkles easily
I found this vest to be very versatile, and I wore it more than once before swapping. The color goes with anything, and the fit is perfectly oversized. I downgraded to 3 stars due to the wrinkles - I brought it on a work trip, and I had to steam it forever to get them out. Plus it wrinkles easily when wearing it, which can make it look sloppy.

I would give this a jacket 10 stars if I could. It's such a flattering cut, and I loved the floppy bow details. It is a statement piece for sure; the kind of jacket you want to rent vs own because it is so memorable people won't forget when you wore it last.

Pretty dress but high slit
Saloni generally runs small, especially in the waist/ribcage, so I sized up which was perfect. I wore this dress to work with over-the-knee boots. I ended up only wearing it once because the slit is cut really high. You can hide it when sitting, but if you are walking around, your upper thigh will definitely be out on display. If the slit was cut even a bit lower, I probably would have kept this for a few weeks and worn it more.

Fun yet professional dress
I wore this dress with black tights and boots to a work event and got tons of compliments. It fits true-to-size and is made of a very soft faux leather. The waist drawstring can be cinched to accentuate your waist, plus the dress has pockets! The only thing that would knock it down a 1/2 star for me is the snap closures. I felt, especially around the bust, that they could accidentally unsnap with the wrong move.

A staple that can be dressed up or down
I absolutely loved this dress. It's flattering and the fabric resists wrinkles. I wore it to work with a blazer and heels, but you could just as easily dress down with tennis shoes and a jean jacket. I particularly appreciated the short sleeves for two reasons. First, I can take off my blazer if hot at work without feeling overexposed. Second, it keeps deodorant off my blazers! I normally wear a size 2-4 and the S was a good fit. Slightly tight in the bust area but that is a usual thing for me (32C). This is a great option for tall women as the length felt perfect to me.

Sleeves are short - didn’t wear
I normally wear a size 4/6 in blazers but this one was snug around the shoulders and too short in the arms. The pattern is very vibrant, and I had planned to wear it with straight leg leather pants to a work event but the fit just wasn’t right. Definitely a cute piece - maybe sizing up would have worked better for me. It’s also a heavy blazer. I would only wear this in the fall or winter.

Unique spin on a button up
I loved the colors and fabric of this shirt as well as the buttons along the back. You can't tell from the photos but it has a subtle embroidered texture along the plaid lines. The tie detail on the cuffs are nice as well. I had to ask my husband to help me button this shirt, so it's not something I could bring on a work trip which is a bummer. It also was very tight on my shoulders and bust (32C) so I would size up if I rented it again.

Flattering but run large
These are a great pair of neutral trousers! I love the high waist and the front pleats. They run big, so I would recommend sizing down. I would have kept them and worn a few more times if they had fit better. They also are very long. I'm 5'9" and wore 2.5in heels, and they were the perfect length.

Great pop of color
I wore this with gray jeans and a black tank top to work. It’s a flattering length and the sleeves were long enough for me (5’9”). The red is beautiful and vibrant, and overall the sweater felt very high quality. One small thing on this particular piece was that one of the buttons had been replaced and did not match the others. It was subtle, but I noticed the mismatch.

I wore this with jeans to my daughters class Valentines party. It was a fun pop of pink but the shirt itself was meh. The peplum has a lot of volume and wrinkles easily. The sleeves hit in a very weird place mid-arm (between elbow and wrist), and they were so tight on the cuffs I had to wear them unbuttoned.
