Chic!
Sizing down works, but for me I would have been fine in a large, maybe would have draped like the model. Size medium had the dress following curves a bit more. Loved, loved, loved.

Daytime dress to impress
This is 100% cotton, a lot lot of fabric, and super lovely print that will get the attention of anyone you interact with. I definitely felt like lower royalty at the bank, glass repair shop, and grocery in my small town...

Elevate any casual daytime look
with this purse. I can't personally wear it on my shoulder (maybe a small small frame could?) so keep that in mind, but the color combo has allowed me to feel good wearing it with every summer outfit for a week. Gives a little pop of fun everytime I hang it on my fore arm!

Interesting top
that was deeply unflattering for broad shoulders. The shoulder seam was set in quite deep towards the neck, which sadly gave linebacker vibes that are never my (field)goal!

Very lightweight, pretty top
When pink and orange get together I'm already smitten, and the pattern play just makes this very lightweight top even nicer to wear. The darkest color isn't quite black, but still wore with a black skirt and with white trousers.

Crossbody with great summer feel
But.... the magnetic closures have been placed so that it is nearly impossible for the purse to secure in any way (the outer wall of the purse would actually have to fold down for the magnets to meet). I had the purse dump contents twice when manipulating it and lost my nice sunglasses. Boo hoo! The suede hardware is lovely but already darkening from use.

Adorable dress that is getting shorter
Beware that the lenghth of this dress is decreasing with wears. The slit is way way high on my 5'5" frame, which doesn't match the knit causal feel of the otherwise charming knit.

Fantastic Skirt
But I wasn't able to wear it... if you are between sizes and your waist is your limiting dimension, I'd recommend going down on this one. The 10 I ordered sat too low, and with the length and loads of navy faux leather, this one really needs to sit at the narrowest and highest point possible.

Super fun style to embrace for around town
Casual, shows a sense of humor, just plain old fun to wear. Also quite warm. Showing a bit of wear, but that also made it feel a bit less precious and very wearable. I was worried that going with the large would be ridiculous with the oversize styling, but I found it true to size with the intended fit in mind.

Most delicious womb like gorgeous jacket
I went with a large for my broad back and didn't regret it- jacket still felt like it had a flattering line. I have mixed feelings about the double zipper insert, but really no problem as you can ignore it if you like. Just really beautiful quality.

Of the moment pants
Just received these... and have to correct a few of the descriptions. Rise on these is super high- maybe 13", and the fly is all buttons. I would say the fit is quite straight through the hips- I'm an 8/10 and the 42's are loose in the waist and just right through the hips. Perfect for the loose tuck into boots. So far the wool is tolerable, but sensitive folks should stay away, I'd think.

Lots of stretch, great shape
But for 8/10’s- the ten was big. My waist is my limiting factor and these hung too low to be as flattering as they might have been. Fun though! I’d recommend.

Fantastic Skirt for shorter legs
For tall or long legs, this skirt might hit too high for current trends. But... the waist is just a weak band that is near the end of its life- my skirt had some holes between the band and the fabric. Not looking so sharp there. I'm an 8/10 with waist being my trouble spot, and 6 fit great.

Great look with light jeans and a tennie or sandal. Would love to try with the matching pants as well. For me, the top didn't read as see through unless in the sun with arms out,

Shrinking up?
These jeans are way short- I've got short legs for my 5'5" frame, an these were awkwardly short. Also very generous in the thigh-- better for a pear?

Very straight pair of shorts.
Loved the look, but had to camouflage that the waist was way too big while the hips fit well. Odd, as my waist is generally my limiting dimension as I'm aging.

Which is how to have some fun with your clothes. Impossible to wrinkle?- I think so. No static issues, but believe the hype on the strong elastic waistband.

Easy to wear hi-stretch jeans
Cute cut. I'm an 8/10- but really needed the 31 in these for my larger thighs... jeans this stretchy have that unattractive way of pulling on the back of the thigh when they are too tight. They looked smart with all types of top. Getting that felted, little bit thin feeling in the bum... hope you aren't wearing them when they give!!

Fantastic in Polyester!
Amazingly flattering for athletic legs- had room For thighs but kept a trim profile. A bit of a dressy PJ feel- they are just polyester shiny pants. But- great pattern. I found them to be true to size.

Didn't transition well to early spring weather
I should have tried this in early January- it just felt to big and dark for current warm trend. I realized on last wear that sleeve length is cleverly adjustable, which was too bad, as I looked a bit kindergarten new coat with sleeves to my fingertips. Jacket interior is the faux leather that you might usually have on the outside- so a bit sticky on bare skin.

Hip sweater from wool heaven
Puff shoulders are a daring choice for my very broad shoulders, but once I made peace with the synergy I was ready to wear this super super soft sweater everyday. I knit- and recognized the merino as top notch- though I wonder if RtR will take care of the shave that it will need soon?

Have Some Fun!
This jumpsuit was generously sized- I really should be in a L, but M was more than adequate. A fun to style piece of clothing- turtleneck under, clogs, tennies.... pretty versatile when you can wear for a mellow Christmas dinner with bling and to work the next week in a warehouse....

Huge!!
With no reviews posted at the time of my rental, I pushed the border and ordered an 8 instead of a 10.... turns out I should have tried a 4. My best estimate is pants run two sizes large, and not an issue of oversize styling.... Maybe better for all these to be relabeled!

Floral print is a bit towards a blended kind of computer effect- modernizes the beautiful fabric and cut. But- Couldn't comfortably close the 12 on my 8/10 waist.

Easy to wear loose bodice could be particularly stylish if you go down another size for a closer fit, and fun contrast with giant pouf sleeves. Pom poms and embroidery are in great shape, but the cotton of dress I wore is getting thin.
