solid basic
this is a good transitional sweater -- cozy, but not extremely warm. feels well made too.

I love this cardigan! The color is so nice, the fabric is very soft, the length was perfect for me, and the collar makes it more special than your average sweater.

so comfortable
The fabric of this dress was a little more casual than I was expecting, but it ended up being exactly what I wanted! The fit was perfect for me, and I love the bow detailing on the back — makes it a bit more special than your average LBD.

I wore this shirt for new headshots! An easy, work-appropriate basic. The linen fabric will be nice when the weather gets warmer too.

great spring/fall jacket
I rented this for a work trip to a warmer climate in the winter, but will definitely be renting again in the spring. It’s warmer than it looks and went well with every outfit I paired it with.

great sundress
I wore this on a work trip and it was perfect for a slightly dressy dinner. Love that it has pockets! The back is low so you can’t wear a bra, but I found that the bodice was supportive enough to go without.

decent basic sweater
Really nice, soft fabric and a comfortable fit. The color wasn't my favorite on me, but I bet the bright blue would look great on other people.

super soft
I loved this! Extremely soft, though I did need to wear a t shirt underneath to avoid all irritation. The color and shape were great. Became a go-to basic in my closet this season.

great fit, quite itchy
i really loved the look of this sweater: the colors are lovely and the drape is relaxed but not shapeless. unfortunately it was quite itchy for my sensitive skin, so even with a t shirt layered underneath I wasn’t able to stand wearing it for a full day.

i liked this way more than i expected to! the fabric is unbelievably soft and lightweight (but still warm) and not itchy. loved the collar detail that made it feel a little more special than a basic cardigan.

i wore this so many times! it’s a really nice, thick knit, and the polo design is obviously very on trend. perfect for my work from home job, since it looks nice on camera but feels comfortable like a sweatshirt.

a perfect coat
I am in love with this coat! It’s so stylish, instantly dresses up even my schlumpiest winter outfits. It’s quite warm too, so I can wear it even on sub-freezing days. I appreciate how long it is, which only adds to keeping me cozy.

will order again in a smaller size
these jeans would have been so perfect--the style is cool and the denim is very soft but not flimsy--but they seem to run big. my usual size (28) had about 2 spare inches in the waist, sadly way too much extra fabric to fix with a belt! look forward to renting a smaller size once available.

mixed feelings
really wanted to love this polo (the pop of red is great) but ultimately the fit wasn't my favorite. the arms fit perfectly but the bottom was bulky in a way that made it kinda weird whether it was tucked in or not. also the fabric is a bit itchy, which probably could have been solved by layering a tank underneath.

I got so many compliments on this! The crochet edge really makes it special. The fabric is a nice medium weight, so it's fairly warm but not bulky.

this was so perfect: the fit was ideal (comfortably loose, not shapeless), the deep cranberry color was gorgeous, and the fabric was so soft. loved it layered over a white tee!

cute, definitely cropped
I really loved the color and thick fabric on this; it was a great sweater tee for the fall. It’s definitely cropped and the tighter fit at the bottom wasn’t the most comfortable for me, but ultimately I liked how it looked.

i love this top! i was nervous about how the buttons would work because of how it’s photographed in the RTR listing, but it turns out it’s just a regular front-button vest. fit really well and feels high quality. loved it for fall and will definitely rent again in the spring!

cute crochet
I’m as obsessed with everyone else with crochet so was excited to rent this. It’s pretty cropped, but I liked it paired with mid-rise jeans. The neutral colors made it easy to build into a bunch of outfits.

fun
A fun pop of red! The fabric was thick and comfortable, though I didn't love that it's a little bit shiny. The crop is cute, but obviously makes it not ideal for the winter, despite how warm it is otherwise, so really only useful for like two weeks in the late fall or early spring!

I loved the oversized fit of this sweater! The material was super soft and the piece felt well made. Giving it four stars only as a personal reminder that I didn't love how the muted colors looked on me.
