The moment!
Perfect dress for my company holiday party. I loved the color, fit and weight of the dress and felt so glamorous! Gives very classic Hollywood vibes. ♥️ At 5’8” with a slim athletic build, it was the perfect length and cut. It’s also so forgiving with the fabric and pleats so I was comfortable all night even after a big Italian dinner. Highly recommend!

Great flow and fit!
Perfect for a black tie wedding in springtime in the south! Super light and breezy fabric and airy with the light sleeves and open back. The tie back is great to accommodate for different sizes (I have a broad rib cage and am an A cup), and I just felt so good wearing it. Great for dancing and bingeing on wedding cake too!

Breezy, comfy romper!
Really light and airy fit and fabric. Loved the color. Can wear regular bra and unhooking to go to bathroom was easy (important for rompers and jumpsuits!). Has belt loops to add a belt to cinch the waist, but there is elastic that creates a waist without.

Avoid if you have broad shoulders!
I didn't realize this had shoulder pads, which make my already broad shoulders look huge. Also, the pads were folded, so it created a weird lump on my shoulders. Disappointing quality from RTR (which is usually so reliable!).

Wore this almost every other day postpartum as a cute, comfy top that was also nursing friendly. TTS.

Soft and warm for Fall!
Wore this for the first few weeks postpartum and for nursing. Gorgeous color and soft feel. Didn't like that it showed bra straps (had to wear a tank and wear off one shoulder).

Soft, stretchy jeans with a high rise that were perfect for my first few weeks postpartum. Just wish they were more tapered/tight all the way through the leg.

I loved this top for work with skinny black maternity work pants and flats. Comfortable and flowy and made me feel pretty with minimal effort.

Okay maternity jeans
Ran larger than other brands I've rented in size 27, and they bunched a lot around my knees. Only wore once.

One of my favorite maternity jeans so far!
I loved the wash and feel of these side panel maternity jeans, although they did stretch out pretty considerably after just a couple wears. They were very comfortable under my belly and not irritating at all.

Great work shirt
Maybe because I'm 5'8", but I thought this shirt hung well and looked good with skinny black pants for work. Not a statement piece, but a nice pop of color and comfortable for a growing bump. Could be worn well into 3rd trimester.

Green Floral Maternity Top

Loved this jumpsuit!
I this jumpsuit was super comfortable and perfect for walking around weekend farmers markets and festivals. The only challenge is getting it up over your belly, so I wouldn't recommend it beyond 30 weeks when your bump is bigger (unless you size up). For reference, I'm 5'8" 158lbs at 30 weeks.

Good maternity jean
I have rented Mama J Brand jeans before in the same size, but this one was a little less stretchy in the legs and hips than others. That said, they were a great dark blue color with a modern skinny cut. Perfect for everyday, just not as comfortable on the lower belly (baby kept kicking down making me think he didn't like them!).

Love love love!
I didn't want to return this (and am kind of regretting that I didn't just buy it). It is so thick and warm and chic, and I received tons of compliments every time I wore it. Great over an all-black ensemble or white tank and blue jeans. Loved it.

Meh
I rented this for work, but the fabric and pattern were way too casual. The dress definitely made me feel matronly. I'm 5'8" and it hit below the knee, and I didn't need to wear a tank (perhaps because I'm a B cup). This dress will work for daytime events, but I wouldn't recommend for a business casual work environment.

Best maternity jeans!
I had heard mixed reviews of this style of maternity jeans, but I loved how these fit and made me feel more normal than when I have to pull an entire panel over my belly. For reference, I wore them for weeks 20-24 but could've worn them longer. I'm a size 26 pre-pregnancy but went up a size to accommodate my growing thighs. Glad I did!

Jumpsuit perfection!
I rented this for a friend's rehearsal dinner at a cool Chicago bar with bocce ball courts. It fit my long torso perfectly and also afforded me some movement when playing games! I paired it with a denim jacket and simple sandals, but it could easily be dressed up with heels. Nice, thick material was great for the chilly Chicago night.

Gorgeous color and shape!
This was an emergency backup dress for my best friend's wedding after the first one didn't fit well, and it ended up being a good last resort! The color is a deep crimson, and the fabric is smooth and stiff so that it holds its shape. I loved the way it fit my waist, but I didn't love the low cut. I worked with what dresses were available last minute, but I wouldn't choose this if you're also small chested. Regardless, make sure you have pasties and sticky tape ready!

Good work holiday party dress!
Although I got compliments on the dress, it gapped across the chest and wasn't as form-fitting as I'd hoped. This is probably due to my broad shoulders and smaller chest, so be warned if you have a similar body type. Overall, it was pretty, but I didn't feel as amazing as I usually do in RTR!

I loved how light these earrings were - never noticed them the whole time I wore them! I also loved how they hung rigidly rather than loosely swinging around all night. Cool and current design!

Perfect jumpsuit for a birthday celebration at a brewery!
This jumpsuit was just the right length for my 5'8" frame, and it was a perfect mix of casual and dressy for an evening at a brewery followed by dinner with family and friends. The fabric is really soft and silky, and I loved the way the pant legs flowed as I walked. Got compliments all night and would definitely rent again!

GORGEOUS color and fit!
I rented this dress for brewery-hopping the first night of my Asheville, NC bachelorette weekend, and it was perfect! The colors and cut were so fun, and I grew to like the shorter length (compared to other maxis) so that I didn't trip during all of our walking. If this goes on sale in the winter, I'll definitely buy it. The fit was perfect for me, but I wouldn't recommend for those with a larger chest or hips. Definitely meant for straight-and-narrow types.

Gorgeous color in person, and super lightweight for the size!
I wore these with the Mara Hoffman Electrolight Dress for brewery hopping in Asheville, NC. They were surprisingly light for the size, and they complemented the colors in the dress beautifully without being overwhelming. Got tons of compliments!

Perfect mix of cute, sexy and comfortable for my bachelorette weekend!
I wore this for going out in Asheville, NC for my bachelorette weekend, and I loved it! Got to show off my legs and got compliments all night. As others described, the fit was a little loose, but I loved the fact that I could eat, drink and dance without any insecurities. Also, since I'm small-chested, I could wear without a bra, and the fabric is thick enough to cover up any signs of chilliness. ;)

Great color on blondes - lots of compliments!
I loved the color of this dress, but the fit and material were a little off. The XS was too short for my 5'8" frame at a wedding, but the S felt like a too long, too thick tennis dress. I ultimately went for the S because of the occasion, but it just wasn't quite right. If you're looking for a conservative, heavy dress in a stand-out color, this is for you. If you want something a little shorter and designed for warmer weather, look elsewhere.

Unique print and comfortable fabric - perfect for dancing!
I rented this dress for a March wedding in Georgia, and it was perfect for the occasion. The fabric is thick and stretchy, making it perfect for the cool Spring night and for the hours of wedding dancing. The only downside is the cut of the top of the dress: because of my broader-than-average shoulders, the dress gives you that beloved armpit fat from some angles. However, if you're looking for something comfortable and forgiving for the Fall or Spring wedding season, and you have narrow shoulders, this is the dress for you!

So many compliments!
I don't think I have ever received so many compliments on a piece of jewelry, but everyone was loving this! While I expected the necklace to be a little larger, it ended up working well with the blue Draped Dream Dress by Mark & James by Badgley Mischka. Thanks!

I didn't expect the dress to be so short - which is a con during a Catholic wedding ceremony - but I loved the color and fit! At the reception, I received numerous compliments and felt very comfortable dancing, eating, and drinking. It's a winner!

Perfectly Sexy
I adored this dress! I rented it for my birthday and felt beautiful and sexy all night. I wore it to dinner and then was able to dance in it later. Winning! The only con is the fit. On me, I wish the sleeves and body of the dress had been a touch tighter, without being shorter (as is the XS). Oh well! It was still a stunner, and I received compliments all night long. :)

Expected incredible, but ended up disappointed...
I had high hopes for this dress. As someone with a straight and narrow body type, I thought the middle would cinch in more and create an hourglass figure. This wasn't the case. It was still hot because of the mini length, but it wasn't a WOW dress on me. I imagine if you're a little curvier, you'll look great though!

Not a "wow" dress
I rented this dress for a birthday brunch with my family. I loved the idea of an ombre dress, but it just wasn't spectacular in person. I still wore it because the fit was great - snug in the bust and waist - but I didn't feel it was worthy of a special occasion.
