Standout work dress
This is my favorite work dress. The color combination makes you standout at work but looks professional. The dress gives you that extra sassiness and confidence. This dress runs very small. Since it was a VB dress I went up a size. I could have gone up 1 more size. It was definitely a tight squeeze.

Statement piece but the shoulders were too extravagant for me
This top is very cute, but for me the shoulder accent was too much for me. It fit perfectly on me, but please note there is no stretch on the top.

Great top for work and after work
This top is very versatile. I wore this to work and then after work with friends for drinks. I wore this with a leather skirt for work. I also wore it with jeans and a belt to dress it down. I loved the top and will probably purchase this. It doesn't come with a cami so make sure you have something to wear underneath.

Amazing design
I've seen this dress on bloggers and celebrities so I had to rent. Although I have wide shoulders the dress was still flattering. Also the dress cut and fabric makes it very unique. I will rent this again for a special occasion.

Very cute but too long for me
Jumper was very cute and stylist but did not fit right on me. The chest area was very tight and the jumper was long. I had to wear 4 inch heels.

Not flattering if you have curves
This dress emphasizes your stomach and hips. Even with spanx the dress was not flattering.

Way too tight
I did not end up wearing it because it was way too tight on the arms and chest area. Size up by 2 sizes.

Great dress for work comfortable and professional looking
I wore this on a plane from NYC to SF and then went to work. The dress was comfortable enough to wear on the plane but still look professional and stylish for work. I also went to a bachelorette party after, so very versatile. I will probably purchase this in the future.

Adorable blouse if you don't mind wrinkles
So much you can do with this blouse! You can dress it up with a skirt and heals, or wear it with jeans or shorts for a casual look. The neck and sleeve makes the shirt interesting and memorable... I got a lot of compliments. The reason why I'm giving it a 3 is because of the material. It constantly wrinkles. I steamed it before my trip, after unpacking and again right before wearing it. Keep in mind I left it hung in the garment bag the whole time. It also started to wrinkle while I was wearing it.

Pretty dress but not flattering for me
I thought this dress was well made but if you have curves not flattering.

I got a lot of compliments
Matched every occasion from casual to formal. My face is wide, so it didn't fit perfectly on me so still searching for the perfect pair.

Day to night dress, so many ways to wear this dress
What I liked about the dress is the detail. The back is sexy and the beading gives the dress edge. I wore this to work and dinner after. For work I wore it with a leather jacket to cover my back and tights because it was short. After work I took off the tights and while I was at dinner took the jacket off. I could have taken this dress dancing if I wanted to, so versatile.

Fun, flirty and flattering
I loved this dress so much I didn't want to return it. It's fun and flirty without showing skin. My favorite part is the skirt, I love how it poofs out, very well made. It was so tight on the top I couldn't wear a bra. I got many compliments at a work event I attended. Also paired it with my Valentino shoes. I felt like SJP :)

True to size
I got a bigger size because of the reviews but it is actually true to size so I should have got a 6. It was comfortable though and still flattering. I love animal print but the cut was very basic that I didn't find the dress interesting. I wouldn't rent this again.

Love animal print
I love animal print so for me style was on point. I enjoyed the hood detail and tie in the front. I'm bigger chested so when you tie it in the front you tend to look a lot bigger because of the fur and it's not form fitting. It was very comfortable. The only reason why I wouldn't purchase it is because the cut is right below the waist so you look out of portion when worn with a dress or a long shirt. The jacket would look best with jeans or solid color pants.

Loved it so much I want to buy this dress
Perfect fit and cut! I loved this dress because it was extremely comfortable to wear and also stylish. I wore it on a work trip to NYC. I received a lot of compliments. What I love about it the most is I can wear it for work and still look fashionable for dinner.

A day in Napa
I was looking for a summer dress for a wine event. I have a lot of free people dresses so was excited to rent this. When I tried it on I thought this was really plain and not flattering, but since I had nothing to wear decided to make it work. It is low cut so you have to wear a cami underneath. I also wore a brown belt to add more style. I usually wear a snail in FP, but got a M and fit just right.
