Runs large - size down 1 to 2 sizes
I'm a 16/18 in RTR. I rented the 14 in this skirt and it was still loose. Size down.

Cute casual summer top
I am normally a 16-18 in RTR. Seeing that this top was supposed to fit loosely, I SIZED DOWN one size to an XL and it fit perfectly.

Luxe lightweight material
Material felt very luxe. These pants would be appropriate for work, date night, vacation, church, and everything in between. I prefer a slim cut pant, and unfortunately, these were wider in the leg than I thought they would be, so I'm returning them New with the tags on. You're welcome!

Pretty cuffs on the sleeve
As the title suggests, my favorite part about the shirt or the pretty cuffs on the sleeve. They are very fitted and so I actually had to unbuttoned the cost to get the shirt on. Once buttoned, they give the shirt of very elegant feel. Well I normally find Parker garments to run large, I thought this top ran true to size if not slightly small. It is a sheer top so you will need to wear a nude colored bra or cami.

Nothing special
The skirt fits true to size and falls at a work appropriate length. I am 5'7". There was nothing special about this skirt so I am going to wear it once and return it. It pairs nicely with this RTR blouse by Parker which is an antique blush shade.

Underwhelming blouse
I really liked the tiny Pom Pom details on sleeves, but other than that, this true to size blouse fell flat for me. The print seemed a little discount department store to me and the fit was a little matronly.

Every day basic top
I'm a size 16 with a 38DD bust. I wore the 16 in this blouse and found it true to size and comfortable. I like the sleeves. They don't get in the way. The print was just ok for me. I wore it to run errands and then returned it.

Classic and pretty black faux wrap dress
I am typically a 16 in RTR and this dress fit true to size. It was a little snug in the bust and rib cage, but nothing too uncomfortable. I'm a 38DD. I felt very elegant and feminine. I also love that this is a faux wrap so that my girls only showed a modest amount of cleavage.

Frumpy and bland
The top is oversized which makes the dress look frumpy. The skirt portion clung a little tighter to my wide hips than I would have liked. Overall the dress was bland and ill fitting for my size 16 38DD body.

Loud print comfy fit
The print and colors are very loud so I would suggest keeping makeup and accessories to a minimal. I am busty... 38DD...and the top was roomy enough so that the fabric was stretched across my bust line and buttons were gaping open. I would rent again.
