Love, love , love this coat!
Color is a gorgeous blue grey (dark enough to not show dirt !), and fabric is so soft. This is not a thick lined coat, but very warm. What I like is that it is roomy enough to wear two layers (blazer, sweater) underneath it and not feel like Charlie Brown on a winter day, when he can't move! Big pockets, buttons and a sash. I never thought I would rent a coat, and use a spot, but this worked well with me because my schedule was less busy for work clothes. Would rent again . I might get an XL this time, although the XXl was recommended. I wear a 14 most of the time, but I was not wearing two layers underneath.

Beautiful Color for dark winter days!
This sweater is beautiful--color, texture and fit. I was concerned that the trim would lay odd around the bust line , but it seems to have been designed carefully. I wore it with tapered black slacks and low boots. I love color and so this was a big win. Compliments from a number of people. I'm a size 14 and it wasvery flattering.

Nice Dress , a little bit vintage, but certainly not "old"
This is a really well made dress, very fun and could be worn for work (depending on your work place) or just for fun. Unfortunately it ran to small for me so I will order again in a different size--or when I am a different size. Definitely a warm weather dress as you probably would guess. Appropriate for any age, more based on taste and style. And speaking as someone who is not in a single digit size, I am usually a 14, it was very flattering.

Beautiful Top for work and everyday
I love this tip and will definitely rent again. The print on the fabric was so interesting and pretty. There is a side zipper which makes it go off and on very easily, which is good since it is very fitted. The fabric is something like a lightweight cotton, so it has body---almost lightly starched. It is part of why it lays and fits so well, include causing the peplum bottom to really stand out. Depending on your work place, could be appropriate and definitely for every day too. The only part that some may not like is the closure --it could feel low for some people, but fabric tape works well. There is a snap so it is not just a wrap closure. Appropriate for all ages, and also for those of us who are not single digit sizes. I am a 14, I looked very slim in it which I appreciated!

Great looking and fitting, comfortable sweater
I love this sweater. It is extremely comfortable and looks great--you could either dress up or with jeans . The bottom has a finished and somewhat fitted band which helps to keep it in place instead of inching up, especially when you sit down. I felt so good in this sweater and received random compliments from people I did not know. Appropriate for all ages (not too old, not too young) . Also appropriate and nice looking for those of us who are not in single digit sizes--I usually take a 14. I will definitely rent this again this winter.

Beautiful dress with classy interesting cut and design
I did not get to wear this--too small for me between my waist and bust line. I do plan to rent again in the future with with a different size, or when I am a different size. Very fitted. Looks simple but the cut, fabric, and pop of fabric that peeks out at the hemline, makes is simple but classy. Could be worn by all ages. I am a size 14 and feel it can be worn by women who are no in single digit sizes. Depending on your place of work--appropriate. Definitely appropriate for a night out, wedding, showers, graduations.

Cute Dress, but runs small
This was a really nice dress, but sadly in places ran small for me so I did not get to wear it. I will definitely rent again in a different size...or when I am a different size! I would say color and size of the stock photo is true to how it works. As a larger size (14) I think it would be attractive once I find the right size for me. I also think a lot of different ages could wear this. Could definitely be dressed up or down with shoes, jewelry, jacket or wrap.

Wonderful Dress!
This going to be one of my favorite dresses--great fit, comfortable, looks great, chic design neckline, doesn't wrinkle...what's not to love? The only, only , only drawback is that the cut of the neck is just a bit to wide and bra straps tend to show. I through a scarf around my neck and it was great! Will rent over and over again...heavy material so good for cool weather. Comfortable, comfortable, comfortable--felt like a million!

Beautiful Dress--but too small for me
I loved this dress but it is very fitted around the abdomen, not forgiving at all, so at the current time could not wear it. Hope to rent it again in the future.

Fun and Classy
I rented this for one day of a four day conference. I loved this dress. I love the fabric and the print made a statement without yelling at you. The long sleeves, although sheer, kept the air off my arms so I was not hot or cold. I love the way the skirt flows--it all has a vintage elegance to it. The side zipper made it easy to get dressed. Yes the top is a bit loose, but I pinned it with a small safety pin and it could not be seen , and kept it nicely closed. The top is blousy and loose which may bother some people but it worked will for me. Got compliments from people I did not know. A classy dress. I wear a size 14 and this worked well for me. / Rented a second time for a conference and still loved it!

Great dress--comfortable and professional
I loved this dress. I rented it for conference where I was presenting an 8 hour class. I needed comfortable and no fuss, along with appropriate. This dress was it. Also it came out of the suitcase and did not need pressed, steamed or even hung up for while---wear immediately. To me the only downside was the neckline was a little to wide and for most bras the straps could be a problem. Since I was in front of a group I did not want to be fixing the straps the whole day, so I through on a jacket/sweater. I will definitely rent again. I wear a size 14 and there were no size issues.
