Super sexy
This dress is really sexy without being too revealing. It's flattering and stretchy. I would have loved to wear it but it wasn't appropriate for the event I have in mind. Will rent again for another event.

Obsessed
These are so good. They can be dressed up or dressed down. Yes, they make the parachute-pant noise when you walk, but it's not that big of a deal. They are super flattering!

Didn't Love It
I really wanted to love this, but it is so boxy. I was swimming in it. Plus the black zipper insert is bulky and doesn't lay flat so sweater stuck out in a really awkward way. Good part is that it is comfy and cozy.

Cool but Giant Shoulder Pads
The cinched waist and giant shoulder pads make the proportions of this jacket very interesting and 80s. I liked it, but I don't think it's going to be for everyone. It's dramatic. I felt like I was starring in Dynasty... not that that's a bad thing. I had fun with it, but it's a one-and-done for sure.

Love But Waist Is Small
Such a pretty fun and flirty skirt. I loved it. It fit well, but the waist is a little on the small side with no give.

Who Sized These?
These run so small that it's ridiculous. I am a 28 or 29 in jeans depending on cut and brand. I ordered a 29 in these and couldn't get them past my hips. If you rent these, go up at least 2 sizes.

Not for the short-waisted
I wanted to like this but just... no. I felt like I was wearing one of those expandable shirts they used to sell at Walgreens. It was short and with my longer torso, it just was too short.
Smocked Ruffle Neck Top
Rixo x RTR
Size Worn: M

Size Down
This is supposed to fit large but it still is oversized if you size down. I loved this jacket. Fun change to the typical blazer.

Not For The Long-Waisted
I tried to make this work, but the way it tied and sat on my body was just... awkward. It is not for the long-waisted of us.

This dress is a travel dream. No steaming required. Easy breezy fit. It's a win.

Fabulous!
Loved these and seriously debated keeping them. Super flattering with nice details on the waistband. They are warm, which is great in the winter weather. Wore 3 times and got many compliments each time.

Cute sweater but don't think it's anything special

Fun and Cozy
Super fun sweater! It's thick and soft, which makes it super cozy. I would consider buying it, but the pattern is so "extra" that after I wore it twice, it felt done.

Cute In Little House On The Prairie Way
Cute dress with stretch around the corseted area so it fits without being constricting. I would say that at the ripe age of 54, it felt a bit young for me and gave prairie vibes, which is not my vibe.

Derek Lam 10 Crosby x RTR

Super fun pants
I agree that these run small, but they do stretch and after wearing them for a little while, they fit perfectly. I am either a 6 or an 8 depending on the fit and I was able to wear an 8 in these pants.

Perfection!
I loved this dress and the adjustable waist made it extra comfortable. It's feminine while also being edgy which is a fun combo. Highly recommend this dress.

A Lot Of Sleeve
Overall, I liked this dress. It was easy to wear and a substantial material which felt expensive. The only issue is the sleeves. They are cool visually but not easy to eat with or put in a jacket if it's cool out.

Not The Best
I didn't actually end up wearing this. I felt like I was wearing someone's comforter. The print is cute but just not for me.

Cute
This dress is much cuter on than it looks on the hanger. I thought it was pretty but nothing special. The ties on the waist let you cinch it as much as you like which is a nice feature.

I saw someone else say it was matronly on and I have to agree. Did nothing for me and 50-something spirit.

Wrinkles For Days
Loved this dress but after trying to steam it and gently iron it, it was still a wrinkled mess. It's a beautiful sophisticated black dress, but I didn't have the patience to figure out how to get the wrinkles out.

Not For Me
Loved this dress but it didn't flatter me. I think this looks best on someone tall and less curvy. It's beautiful but just not for me.

Loved this outfit but the top felt like it hung low and there's no way to adjust it

Cozy But Weird Pockets
Loved this and it was super cozy BUT the pockets are made from the same thick knit and create a weird bulge at the hips. If I owned it, I would replace the pockets, but I don't so... lol

Cute blazer but didn't wow me like I wanted it to. Felt a little more casual than it looks. Kinda like a step up from grandpa's cardigan.

Great for the beach/pool but made me feel a bit like my gram in a housecoat.

Very Pretty
Surprisingly loved it. I don't often gravitate to bright prints but this caught my eye and I'm glad. V is a little lower than I expected, but easy dress to throw on and go.

You can't go wrong with a black cable knit sweater. Cute and fitted. Nice staple.

Great jacket but it is very heavy and runs large. I know it's meant to be oversized but I felt like I was swimming in it. Size down!

Fun Piece
This is a great rental sweater. The print is unique and the colors are fun but I feel like after wearing a couple times, you wouldn't reach for it again, making it the perfect rental.

Fun and comfy dress. Really adorable print. Great vacation dress. Folds down and doesn't wrinkle.

Great color. Perfect for the beach.
Runs a bit snug in the hips if you've got some curves. Perfect over a bathing suit so if you leave it open or only button a few buttons it looks okay.

This is one of those super cute sweaters that has to be styled just so. I felt it gaped weirdly when I sat down.

Comfy and cute but look like scrubs
Loved the overall vibe and feel of the pants. Super comfortable, lightweight and easy to wear. The only issue is that the color reminds me of scrubs and I couldn't help but feel like I looked like I had just left the hospital... granted, having my foot in a boot didn't help.

Bizarre
I wanted to like this but it just didn't work for me. It looked like I threw a sweater dress over my pjs and ran out of the house. Also, the "button down shirt" side of it is so thin that's it's see-through. Gets a meh from me, but perhaps someone can figure out how to style is better. (Didn't end up wearing it but the review form is making me choose one.)

Stunning Dress
Beautiful dress and the color is gorgeous. I thought it fell just a bit short for me at 5'7" but not so much that it was unwearable. Definitely no bra with this but was able to get away with Nippies underneath.
