Loved it so much I bought it!
I’ve been wanting to try the long denim skirt trend, but I found it challenging to wrap my head around (I felt a little Sister Wife in blue denim!). This skirt is perfect—the slit makes it feel lighter and the straight cut feels modern and flattering. I styled it like the model and felt chic and pulled together.

Very cute dress, but short!
I know it has mini dress in the title, but I still found this dress a little short. Because of the tulip hem and wrap style, the slightest breeze risked showing my underwear. The colors and pattern are so cute, but if you’re tall you might find it challenging.

Cute enough but a little too short for me.

Runs big
Loved these but they are a bit too bug in the waist. The cut and off center button are very cool. If I owned them I would have the hem let out an inch, but I’m tall-ish.

Great fabric, packable.
Great lightweight, silky fabric. Peplum more flattering than expected. Made my chest look kind of big. Fabric and cut felt summery but colors felt very fall.

So wrinkly!
I had to steam and iron this dress and it still looked a little rumpled. I’m short waisted and this was a little long in the waist. It wanted to ride up a bit, I think maybe a smocked top just isn’t for me. I liked the pattern and pockets, just wish the top was different. The waist detail was bulky.

Perfect dress!
This really had the perfect fit! I appreciate the hook and eye that keeps the neckline just right. Love the pockets, super comfortable, and surprisingly not wrinkled after being in a suitcase and a full work day. Would rent again!

So much prettier in person!
This was a size too big but I wore it anyway--a little double sided tape kept the top from gaping and I made it work. It's SUCH a pretty dress!! I'll rent again in my correct size.

Pretty print and fabric, very unflattering. To large chests.
I loved the colors and pattern of this dress, but it was wildly unflattering on my large chest. There are pleats under the chest area that make you look much bigger than you are. Would be a cute maternity dress.

Pretty details, tough color.
This is a pretty dress and flattering, but dressier than I expected and a challenging color for me to wear, so I didn't end up wearing it.

Prettier in person!
Photos don't do this pretty dress justice, the fabric and details are gorgeous. Very flattering for curvy figures.

Such a beautiful dress!
Snapped this up when it became available even though it's still February. Such a beautiful cotton. Waist band is a little tight but not avail in a larger size. So pretty anyway, I'm ready for spring!

Not for the tall!
I have long legs and a big butt but skinny calves. These jeans could t have been much worse on me. Too short and so loose in the leg, not a skinny fit at all. Fit fine in the waist and hips.

Gorgeous coat, didn't work with my wardrobe.
Really beautiful coat but the navy, citron, and lilac color way went with nothing I own.

Beautiful bag, skinny straps
Beautiful, well made bag but the skinny straps made it hard for me to wear. The shape is boxy so you can't easily wear it on one shoulder, and sometimes I don't want to go full on backpack. More of a me issue than an issue with the bag.

Gorgeous, but a little noisy.
Beautiful, quality earrings. A little heavy and the jingle jangle when you walk. Uncomfortable with headphones on. But I don't care! They are outfit-making earrings and I love them.

Obsessed!
I have one huge problem with these overalls--I love them and they are $$$. But seriously, these are cut so well and I get tons of compliments on them. I'll probably break down and buy them. Darn you RTR!

A great skirt for curves!
I sized up for this skirt and I'm glad I did, mostly because I'm wary of bias-cut skirts because I'm pear shaped. I was shocked to love this so much, I actually bought it! I would say it's TTS if you're not as curvy but I liked having a little extra room. Can't wait to wear with sneakers and a striped tee this spring!

Not for the busty!
The bib on these overalls is so narrow that it literally bisected my breasts. Not cute. It almost looked okay with a sweater over it but I would move and a whole boob would be poking out. Fit was fine otherwise so maybe better if you don't have a big chest?

Perfect teddy coat, but don't size up!
My size wasn't available, so I sized up. Mistake! This teddy coat is already an oversized style, so I should have just waited. That said, it's super cute and cozy and I'll probably wear I anyway! I like the hook closure and exaggerated collar, and the color is great.

Cute and trendy--perfect rental item!
I love the colors and the balloon sleeves, very on trend and perfect for renting. I'll wear it a couple of times and then send it back, but it's a great trendy sweater to brighten up winter.

I'll try another style from this brand, but these weren't quite right on me.
These are well made and flattering, but the rose is a little low for my preference--I think a higher rise is more modern. They are also short on me, but they are a cropped style so I guess that's expected. They have a nice dark rinse and I like the copper button. Not a win for me, but makes me want to try some other styles from this brand.
