A dress that gets attention
This dress was so pretty and fun. It fit true to size and was the perfect length. I wore it for a nice dinner date and I felt like I was the best dressed in the whole restaurant. Would buy it if I could afford it. Easy to wear and would definitely rent again!

On trend and great for vacation
I loved this little bag. I took it with me to Vegas and it was so nice not having to haul around a purse through the casinos. The only downside was using the restroom - I found I had to completely take it off each time, then put it back on. A bit time-consuming. All in all though a great rental.

Pretty and unique
I loved this. I was worried it would feel tight or itchy, but it felt fine. I felt really beautiful in it. I wore it on a date night, on vacation, and out running errands. It's different from anything else in my closet and I seriously considered buying it. If the price reduces a bit more I probably will. I was able to zip it and unzip it without any help. I'll definitely rent it again.

Pretty dress, pic doesn't do it justice
I wore this in Vegas to a Cirque show. It was very pretty and my boyfriend loved it. I was self-conscious though that it was riding up in the back and I was flashing people (I wasn't) because the slip underneath had some weird bunching going on. It worked for the occasion but I doubt I'd rent it again.

Nice pop of color
This was a great color. Very thin top - the outline of my bra was quite visible. I'm glad I sized down - normally I would have been a S but got the XS which fit great. I wore the Furla Magix M Belt Bag with it and the colors worked well together. A decent rental but not one I'd consider buying.

I wanted to love it
I wanted to love this, but it was just a bit too snug for my comfort. However, if I had rented the M I think it would have been too big in the top. It's a very cute dress though.

Really cute
The leather on this jacket is so soft and I like the green color. It's a really cute jacket, but just didn't have a huge wow factor for me. It fit perfectly though and I would rent again.

Wanted to love it.
I really wanted to love this coat. It looks so beautiful in the photos. Unfortunately it didn't quite work for me. I think it was just too big. The shoulders came out pretty far and had a lot of material, making my already broad shoulders look even broader. I would consider trying again in an XS.

Worked well for what I needed.
Based on reviews I sized down (would have normally gotten 4R, went with 2R). Glad I did because 2R was perfect. They did stretch out slightly by end of day but not much, and I don't think it was noticeable. I got these to wear with cropped tops and sweaters since they are high rise. They did the trick, but I would have actually gone even higher by an inch or so. Would rent again.

Statement sweater!
I loved this sweater. I wore it to work and another day I wore it to dinner and a concert. I did size up based on reviews, and the M was great (normally would have gotten S). It's such a bold statement sweater and made me feel powerful wearing it. Since it is a cropped sweater I paired it with the Good American Good Legs jeans. My boyfriend loved it and I received compliments from strangers. If it were cheaper I would buy it.

So cute!
I loved this bag! It's adorable and would go with a lot of different outfits. It's about the size of a standard greeting card. I wore it with the Badgley Mischka Floral Grommet Maxi. It fit all the essentials I took to the wedding: phone, cash, license and room key, lip gloss. It arrived looking slightly worn (discoloration on the chain and some loose threads), but I didn't mind. I tucked the chain in and carried it by the handles. There is no zipper so just keep that in mind - it basically just stays open, but the handles have some weight to them so when they are folded over they help keep the bag closed. Would rent again.

I felt beautiful!
I loved this dress. I had struggled finding the perfect wedding guest dress, and this particular dress is the reason I signed up for RTR Unlimited! It was so popular that once it became available I knew I needed to hang on to it to ensure I'd have it for the wedding. Yes, it's long. I'm 5'6", wore 4" inch heels and I was still stepping on this dress from time to time. But overall I didn't mind because I loved the way I felt in it and received compliments all night. I paired it with the Kate Spade Warm Gold Mini Sam Bag.

Not quite right
I wanted to love this! I waited a while for it to become available and had planned to wear it to a wedding. As soon as I tried it on my boyfriend said, "NO." He wasn't crazy about the cut of it and the pink straps in front. I actually like those aspects of it, but it was a bit snug and scratchy. I sized down based on some reviews, but probably could have just gone with my regular size. The piece across the arms was particularly scratchy.

Would be good for HOT weather
This just wasn't the right time of year in Chicago to wear this. It's very loose and actually has the "looking pregnant" vibe. I'm not pregnant, but it does poof out. If it were extremely hot, I'd probably like that fit, but it's just a bit cool in Chicago right now. Also, one of the ribbons came untied and I had a hard time getting it even with the other one, so it sat a bit weird on my shoulders.

Even my mom told me to buy it!
I love this sweater. I received a lot of compliments and it definitely makes a statement. Both my mom and my boyfriend told me I needed to buy it, so that's what I plan to do. It looks amazing, but more importantly I felt amazing wearing it. I went with the XS based on the reviews of it running large. Honestly, the XS should be considered a one-size-fits-all. I've worn it a lot of ways, but I think it looks best with skinny jeans, otherwise you can end up with too much fabric happening. It's also a great sweater to wrap up with on the couch. LOVE.

Great dress!
I wore this to a Mother's Day dinner. I felt great in it. It was comfortable to sit in, eat, move around in, etc. As we were leaving, the owner of the restaurant stopped me and asked, "Is that the Shoshanna dress?" She said it looked great on me and wanted to know where I got it. "Rent the Runway!" I answered. It was a great moment.

Pretty dress but very delicate
I ended up not wearing this to the event for which I rented it. The plan was to wear it to a wedding, and although very pretty - I love the colors - it is very delicate. I was worried about dancing in it, afraid I would rip the lace. I also read a lot of reviews saying the slip rides up without you noticing it, and the outer material is see through. I didn't want any wardrobe malfunctions while dancing! I would rent it again for a fancy dinner out because I do like it, but I think you have to be careful wearing it.

Okay but not quite right
I really wanted this to work. The color is great and it's a different take on the usual jumpsuit. When I first put it on I thought it was perfect. It seemed to fit in all the right places. However, I could not sit down! I received the SR and I think I'll try it again in a size MR. I really want to be able to wear it out somewhere.

Cute and fun
This was a really cute and fun sweater, however it was a bit dingy and smelled a little of smoke. I also noticed two faint stains on one of the sleeves. It was a good sweater to lounge around the apartment in but I probably wouldn't rent it again.

This sweater was a disappointment.
Pros: Nice color Cons: Very odd cut - it was not flattering on me at all and looked boxy; the neck hole is really small; sweater material felt thin
