Love this!!
This is a little dressy for everyday work, but I felt amazing in it and received so many compliments on it. It's a stretchy scuba like material. The size 8 was a little big on me and probably could have gone with a 6 but the seams on the inside (shoulders / arms / waist) were a little rough and by the end of the day a little irritating. Not terrible, but enough to make me glad they were tight on me. Overall still absolutely LOVED this dress though and would rent again!

Perfect for work
I loved this dress! The pattern is fun and the dress is light enough for spring. It's well structured so it sits nicely and is very flattering.

SO CUTE but runs short
It doesn't run small, it runs short. I'm 5'7" and have a long waist, i have to wear high waisted jeans in order for this to work. But it's so warm, easy to throw on and look cute. I bought it!

Meh
The waist fits but the top is way too small. I'm usually a size 6 but based on reviews of the top having a ton of excess fabric I went smaller, which was a mistake as you can see the top is gaping open. This fell past my knees with a very loose skirt. I didn't think it was very flattering on me overall.

All time favorite
This dress is one of my favorites that I've worn. It's very figure flattering and the neckline makes it a little more interesting. The color is a dark hunter green that's still feminine. The fabric is comfortable and it sat well; I didn't spend the day pulling the dress back into place.

Cute & comfy
I LOVED this shirt and really wanted to keep it. It's so soft and comfortable but also pretty cute - this picture doesn't do it justice. Very loose fit and pretty long. The colors were really pretty and good for spring or fall.

Very short shirt but whimsical
As others have mentioned, the top is really short so I wanted to wear high waisted pants or a tank top underneath. It was a light, fun shirt with the ruffles and little see-through pattern down the sides. The medium fit me but was a little tight, I think that a size up would have been too loose though.

Very conservative fit
The dress was significantly longer than I expected, going down past my knee. I liked the fit down to my waist, but in the hips the dress was big, with a lot of loose fabric on the sides. I needed a size smaller in the skirt, but don't know if the top would have fit right with that.

Great dress to spice up the work week!
I really liked this dress, although I thought it was a little big. Not sure I'd go down a whole size though. I got SO MANY compliments on this - especially on the color. Expect some "Lady in Red" references. I did have to keep pulling the shoulders forward a bit so that the neck draped appropriately, otherwise it pulled back against my neck and you couldn't see the detail. It's a pretty long dress and came down to my knees. The dress is in great shape.

Warmer than expected
The coat is a pretty, darker tan and fit a little big. The coat is lined so was actually warmer than I anticipated. I ended up not wearing this when I realized that I didn't have a purse that went well with it.

Fun raspberry dress
I rented this dress because it looked like a fun way to add some pep to an otherwise boring work week. I loved the raspberry color of the dress and the sleeves. It pulled a little around my hips in a way I didn't love, so would probably get it in an 8 if I could re-do (haven't tried on the 8 so don't know if it would be baggy). It was a little short on me for the office without tights. It didn't wrinkle too much being shipped to me or sitting all day long.
