Comfortable and chic
I wore these pants on the last day of a conference when I had to fly home. They were super comfortable, did not wrinkle, did not show any crumbs when I ate my snacks on the airplane, and felt awesome all day. Loved them, considering buying them!

I rented this and got it new with tags. It is very long for a petite gal. As someone who is 5'2'', it basically hit the floor. It was also very large in the torso area. It's a pretty dress, thin and breezy, with pockets and a flattering neckline but I would only recommend for someone taller and size down!

I rented this dress and got it new with tags. I wore it on stage with my band and got a ton of compliments. It's very comfortable and looks great close up and from a distance. Not too short, and very flattering.

Show-stopping
Rented this for a formal spring wedding. It ended up slightly chilly so I wore a coat to cover the open back. The dress was absolutely gorgeous and I had non-stop compliments all night. It is very long (skirt on the 6R was 46 inches from the waist to the hem). I wore 5 inch platform shoes to make it work and I still had to be quite careful. Dancing was a blast, and it was largely very comfortable for 10 hours’ wear. Definitely a little tricky to put on and take off, but manageable solo and easier with help. A great rental!

Thick and Cute
I loved this dress, and the month I had it was warmer than I expected so I only got to wear it a few times. The fit was perfect--not too tight, not too loose. The top has a wider fit in the shoulders that kept the dress interesting and not just another black dress. It is really thick, so it was very warm. Perfect for work and for drinks after work too!

Gorgeous Silk Skirt
I loved this rental! I got it brand-new with tags, and it was so fun to wear around. I wore it on stage to sing with my band, to work with a sweater, and just bopping around. It moves so prettily, and the color is really unexpected for fall, but it was the perfect transitional piece. It is a little long for a short person, and the skirt was pieced to accommodate for hips, so keep that in mind, but I felt really pretty wearing it!

I wore this to a wedding that was pretty formal. I felt like I fit in, and loved how comfortable this was. The pockets were great for dancing with my phone handy for pictures, and it was easy to sit, walk, and move in. Lots of compliments, and I felt cute and appropriate all night.

Compliment-Getter
This fit tighter and more low-cut on me than on the model. I ended up wearing it only once during the month I had it, because it didn't really fit my lifestyle and the events I had going on. I did wear it on stage to sing with my band and got about 10 compliments on the color and fit. It was pretty comfortable, but it is quite slim on the legs, so you can't walk very fast.

I loved this for work. I wore it for zoom meetings with sweats, and also paired it with wide-leg jeans and mary-janes for lunch with friends. It's pretty thick material. I wore it alone, buttoned up, but also as a traditional cardigan.

Gorgeous and long
I have just tried it on but I rented this for a trip to the Caribbean. The fabric is a linen blend and has a lovely vintage look to it. Fits perfectly, not wearing a bra. The bottom half isn’t lined and slightly sheer because of the light color. I’m 5’2” and I’m wearing a 3” heel in the photo. She’s long and gorgeous, and I can’t wait to wear her!

Odd fit
These pants are made for a taller person. They were tight on my thighs and loose on my waist and I needed to pull them up so high to fit okay enough to wear them. If you have more of a straight silhouette and are short waisted, they would work better. The fabric was nice and light, great for work, they just didn’t fit well on my size and shape.

Fun and comfy
I wore this dress 3-4 times when I had it, from singing on stage to attending a concert to hanging out with friends. It is very comfortable and has pockets and a lining. Loved that it was actually pieced like a quilt, and it was breezy enough for august. Got a few compliments on this one!

Flattering and comfortable work dress
Loved this linen dress for summer office days. The front tie made the dress very flattering on my figure, but the length, sleeves, and collar kept it work appropriate. Pockets were a bonus. Only thing is that the button on top would slip out occasionally. It a deal breaker for me but something to be aware of.

I rented this coat for a wedding weekend in Breckinridge as a non-skier. The coat was lovely and very warm. We had below-zero temperatures and it was fine with the coat! Great deep pockets as well. Only complaint was that it was a bit tight around my hips when zipped. Bonus: everyone loved it, from the random shouted compliment on the street, to making me very easy to find in the crowd!

Flattering compliment-getter
I ordered this on a whim. As 5’2” size 6, it was a gamble. To my shock it fit like a glove and was an instant hit with the general public. I wore it 5 times in the month I had it, and felt like a million bucks. Definitely felt like the right length for me so tall women beware. Loved the pockets and the zip made bathroom trips pretty easy.

Didn't work
I wanted to love this too. Very Jackie O and lovely color. The length felt awkward to me--too short to tuck into my work pants, hit me weird if left out. Probably would have worked best with a pencil skirt but it's a pandemic and I don't have time for those.

Stage lights beware
I admit I rented this for a very specific purpose: wearing on stage. Seemed like the perfect mix of cool yet casual yet edgy. Unfortunately, the lining is the same material as the rest of the dress, so it's just two layers of see-through material. Good for daylight, bad for stage light.

Great color, good comfort
I took these with me to Italy. They were very comfortable for walking around and sightseeing. Stretchy enough to accommodate pasta. They do get wrinkly in the crotch area, like a lot of pants. I found the rise to be almost just right, maybe slightly lower than I'd like (I love a high rise!), but nothing awful. Loved the color, and felt cute and comfy.

Fabulous works-with-anything dress
I rented this during the holiday season. I wanted it to be the perfect workhorse dress: work, cocktails, dinner, party. I wore it as much as I could and it was fabulous. Comfortable, flattering, and easy to wear. I mostly wore it with tights and booties, but it would have been cute bare-legged, with sneakers (well, if I were taller) or pumps, and day or night. Only minor complaint is that the neck doesn't always lie right but it's very minor.

Sparkly fun
I rented this for my annual progressive Christmas party. It was a LOT of fun to wear and I got compliments all evening. Definitely more low-cut and fitted throughout than I anticipated, and the arms are tight (and get scratchy with the sequins). That said, it was perfect for the occasion and a lot of fun! A good dress for an event.

I loved this too! I wore it anywhere I could (in summer 2020, so not many places). The sleeves were so much fun, and the cut was very flattering. It is almost cropped, nice thick material, and the band in the middle of the sleeve isn't too tight. Loved it.

Beautiful details
I rented this for a late April outdoor wedding. We ending up having terrible weather and it was chilly and rainy. I wore several layers of shapewear/hosiery to stay warm. Many compliments on the dress, no bra needed but I wore one for warmth. It was more fitted in the hips than I realized. Definitely tight when seated, especially if you're layered up. Fun to dance in and overall and excellent rental.

Love this colorful and fun dress
I rented this for summer fun. It's a great color and very comfy in the heat. It's a big tight on the top/sleeves, but nothing horrible, and gives you confidence that it won't fall down or ride up. Keeping this one at home for longer and planning to wear it a few more times!

Not flattering
Admittedly I tried this on after a big dinner but I just felt like it was too tight. It hugs your curves, and perhaps if I felt more "fit" I would have liked it. The fabric was nice and thick, and the dress itself it cute, but overall it was too small for me and I returned it without wearing it.

Too tight up top
I rented this for a rehearsal dinner and planned to wear it on a couple dates as well. Unfortunately the top was too tight. It was low and the cups were too small for my ample bosom. No possibility of wearing a strapless bra for me either. Additionally it was hard to move my arms. The dress fit everywhere else and is cut on the bias, so super flattering. Probably should have gotten a medium. Love the color and lingerie feel of it, but ultimately I returned it without wearing it.

This was a great "elevated" sundress for a date with my husband. I felt chic but not overdressed at the local watering hole. The faux wrap style is cute. Probably should have steamed it but oh well.

No structure whatsoever
I really wanted to love this dress and wear it to an august wedding. I love the style and the color. However, the interior slip dress felt super flimsy and it emphasized all my curves a little too much. My bra showed through the holes on the side, and no shape wear is possible with the cutouts. I didn't feel confident when I tried it on and opted to select something else for the wedding.

Loved this cute print!! Very flattering neckline, IMO. Wore out to dinner with girlfriends and a heel, felt cute/sexy. Wore hanging out with my nephew and flat sandals, felt summery and breezy. Aka very versatile. It is short, keep in mind if you're NOT short. Easy summery must-wear.

Stand-out jumpsuit
I rented this and wore it twice. I don't have any photos of it all dressed up but it is SO FUN to wear. It is extremely light and flowy, and slightly see-through, so plan ahead. I found it wanted to wear shape wear with it because you could kind of see my bellybutton and that's a pet peeve of mine. I'm 5'2 and this was long but okay with a 2-3" heel. Tons of compliments from strangers and friends alike. Looks great on tan skin with gold jewelry.

I rented this for a month and wore it a few times. The top is basically a bustier with a flowy piece attached. It is very high quality in person. Loved the weight of it. Very cute with jeans, couldn't make it work with skirts. The back is super pretty with a hint of skin. Highly recommend.

Comfy and fun
I forgot to cancel my monthly rental and went for some fun and comfy pieces in January 2021. This sweatshirt was fun to wear. The rainbow on the sleeve kept it from being boring, though the giant POLO on the back wasn't my favorite detail (I'm not big on logos). However, this was a super fun way to brighten up a dreary month and though I would not buy this sweatshirt I would totally steal it from my best friend.

Comfy sweaterdress
I wore this all January while working from home. It was an easy way to "get dressed" without having to commit to real clothes. Very comfortable, a tad short, and can be slightly fitted if you have a booty. It rode up slightly but I was literally sitting at home and it didn't matter. My husband liked this dress and how it fit me. Quite warm and a good winter staple. Probably a tiny bit short for the office, but with opaque tights I would wear it anyway.

This sweater was basically my muse for dark, dreary month of January. It was soft and fuzzy, yet not frumpy in the slightest. Amazingly, you can wear a regular bra with this sweater, and it was a very easy way to add some spice to a boring work from home outfit. I wore this on repeat all month and want to buy it.

Warm and comfy
I rented this to spice up January. I'm working from home in a basement and have been searching for warmer items. This skirt was very warm and comfy--like wearing a blanket. I love the wintery color palette and the slightly different textures on each color. I wore this about 5 times in the month I had it, and got online compliments when I posted my OOTD on social media. I would 100% rent again, and I am considering buying it.

Christmas at home
I like to dress up regardless so I rented this for Christmas at home. My regular size tends to be between 4 and 6 and I was leery to size down from other reviews but I did it anyway. It was tight in the shoulders and arms. Still worked, and the ruching is very flattering. Would love to rent this again in a more forgiving size 6 for next year's larger holiday gatherings.

Felt like Princess Diana in the 80s (yes, I wore this right after watching the Crown season 4). It's very very soft and beautiful. Not itchy at all. Loved the poofy sleeves and pretty flower details. Would have bought if I could justify owning a $200 white sweater. Loved having it for cozy holidays at home!
