Loved this sweater
I wore this on the weekend with leggings and to work with nicer slim pants. It's cute and comfy and I love the longer length. It was a bit itchy when I wore only a tank underneath, so the other times I wore it with a thin long sleeve "tissue tee" underneath, and that was perfect.

Loved this sweater!
I can't believe I don't have a pic wearing this - I wore it 6 times, 6 days in a row! I wore it out for dinner and to work. It was comfy and I think it's so cute. It's a bit wide/bulky but I really liked the fit. The only (super minor) complaint is that the sleeves are a bit wide so it's tough to push to them up and they're a bit bulky under a winter jacket. Overall, I loved it, and I would buy it if it weren't as expensive.

Too short and wide
These were an odd length on me - way too short to look cute. Plus they were kind of baggy in the legs and overall unflattering. I didn't wear them. I thought the subtle camo pattern was cute though.

Fun but a bit bulky
I wore this for a night out - dinner and a bar/live music with some friends. It was comfy and kept me warm on a cold Chicago night in February. It's fun, but it looked really bulky on me - made me look bigger than I am. I also thought the fake leather trim looked really fake...no one's looking that closely, so not a big deal. It was fun to wear for a night, but I didn't love it enough to keep it any longer.

Cute and comfy
This was a good casual weekend sweatshirt. I wore it on a flight and lounging around on a Saturday. I'm typically a medium and I was happy I got a large in this. I would've liked it to be longer and a little looser at the neck.

Cute and comfy
Good basic everyday sweater. Flattering and comfy. I'll probably rent it again.

Structured top
This was really cute and i wore it twice on different work trips with black pants and a long black cardigan. It's a very structured top and not particularly easy to get on and off, even with the zippers on the side and back. It looks really nice though and I liked the wrap detail. I'm typically an 8 in tops/dresses (10 in pants) and I wore a 10 in this top, so I'd say it runs a bit small.

I loved this comfy dress
I'm bummed I don't have a pic because I wore this 3 or 4 times. It's comfy and perfect for weekend days in the winter. I wore it with black leggings and boots (both snow boots and cute knee high boots) and I loved it.

Wrong size recommended
RTR recommended an XL for me and I'm typically a medium. I was hesitant to get the XL, but I saw some reviews saying it ran small so I went with it. It was HUGE. I couldn't make it come close to working, even with a tie at the waist to cinch it. I'd be interested in trying this dress again in a medium because I think it's really cute. Side note, it was super staticky, but I know that's common in winter.

Wasn't quite right
I rented two dresses for a wedding and this one didn't win. I really liked it on the hanger, and I could've worn it, but the other one was more elegant and a much better fit on me. This ran tts, as I typically wear an 8 in dresses, but it just wasn't really flattering, and made me look "thicker" than I am/than I wanted to look (for lack of a better term). Bonus points for pockets, although they're not really usable.

Didn't wear - the back is just too much
The reviews were mixed so I decided to give it a try and hoped I'd like it. I really like mixed media tops with fun differences/details in the fabric. This one didn't work for me. I sized down since reviews said it runs big. I'm normally a medium and the small fit fine in the body but the sleeves were too short (though I do have really long arms). The back is just too wide with too much fabric and it unfortunately looked ridiculous on me.

Great dress, would've liked more sparkle
I wore this for a friend's wedding, and I got a lot of compliments. You could barely see the silver in the dress I got, and I would have liked a little more sparkle, but I liked the fit. I typically like things to be looser around my stomach, but some control top tights did the trick. I also love the open back, and that you can still wear a regular bra. I'm typically an 8 dresses and this 8 fit well

Flowy & flattering
I wore this for a friend's birthday party, with burgundy "pleather" jeans and black boots. It's comfortable and flattering and I plan to wear it again for a holiday party!
