Runs VERY small
Never wore this dress because I couldn't come close to zipping it up. This is the 2nd strapless dress that I've rented that was at least one size too small. Maybe they are afraid the dress will fall off if they don't downsize. I'm afraid it will fall of, so I don't order one size up ...... Because I rented this through Unlimited, I didn't have a backup, and wasn't able to wear it for my event :-(

Basic pea coat with a colorful collar
This pea coat had a nice pop of color that caught my eye. But it's a little light weight for a pea coat (not much of a lining), and the rough fabric made it a magnet for lint.

Very lovely, well made bag
This bag is very pretty and well made. Because it's silver and tan, it's versatile. It's very elegant for a casual bag. The shoulder strap is a little long, but you can carry it by the hand straps it the length is awkward.

Good cross body bag
This bag is roomy and is good for when you have to take a lot with you. Nothing extraordinary about it, and I wouldn't pay retail price for it. Just sayin'

Something different
Others liked this top better than I did. I was expecting a sweater, and it's a very lightweight top that looks almost like a sweatshirt. Maybe I was disappointed that it wasn't a sweater, but I wasn't too excited about it, but others liked it on. You could change the look by wearing it with a navy pencil skirt and heels, but I was planning to wear it for a casual evening, so I wore it with jeans.

Perfect Cozy Sweater
This is a great sweater for kicking around in, and would be great for a football game or cold-weather event. I wore it with black leggings, big socks and Doc Martins for an easy casual (warm!) outfit.

FUN!
I LOVED this jacket! Almost enough to buy it, but not at the designer price :-) Lots of pockets, and a drawstring to make the fit flattering. It's quite lightweight, so when the weather gets below 50 degrees you'll need another layer.

Classic coat
This coat fit a little large on me, but I am small (5' 2"/102 lbs). It wasn't un-wearble-y small, however and was a really nice layering piece over sweaters. If I remember correctly, it either had no buttons or just one button, so it won't do when the weather is cold enough to need a wool coat, but if you layer it up it's a great fall piece.

Perfect transition sweater!
When the weather is just starting to get cold enough to bring out the sweaters, this long tunic sweater with open sides is the perfect transition. I've worn it with jeans and with black pants and it looked great. Pretty sure it would have worked with a black or tan wool skirt just a bike longer than the sweater, and matching tights or boots.

Great color, perfect size
I loved this little purse so much I used it for everything! It's a perfect size when you don't need to lug everything around, but still want wallet, small brush, a few make-up items and your phone. The color is fantastic and adds a nice pop of color to black or neutrals. It can be dressy or casual and it came to the perfect length when slung over a shoulder.

Different....
Not sure this will be easy for everyone to wear. I ordered up a size after reading the reviews. More often than not, clothes off the rack can be too long for me, but this dress was a good length. There was something about the cut - kind of boxy? - and when you raised your arms the dress went up. I'm not sure my photo is helpful - my selfies aren't good, and my husband's photos are worse, so this is all I have!

Comfy
Very comfortable and it fit well. I didn't love the color - a little drab/faded and I don't think it was the most flattering color combo for me. It's low cut in the front with little hooks and eyes holding it together, and the material felt like a rough cotton. A little bit of a boho look, but I might have liked it better in different colors.

FUN!
I wish I had photos of this jacket. It's a lot of fun and can be worn with jeans, shorts, pants - use your imagination. The neckline closes completely, or wear it open as in the photo. I'll probably rent it again - I really liked it and it will be better in the cooler weather.

Versatile Twist on LBD
I wore this to a party and it was the perfect combination of edgy, elegant and effortless. I really wanted to dress it up with a dramatic necklace, but that would have been too much for this event. A couple of things to note: I am 5' 2" and this came to mid thigh, so if you are taller, it's going to be pretty short. Also, I am wearing a black sports bra that you can see in this photo. The jacket neckline is open, so plan to wear something beautiful (or not) beneath - whatever it is, it will be seen! The dress zips up the back from just below the waist so it's easy to get in and out of.

VERY easy to wear!
I think I have found the trick to finding outfits for petite women - filter by mini for the skirt length. This one finally didn't hit at a dowdy length or look like it was dwarfing me. I wore this on a warm night with bare legs and strappy sandals and it was perfect. The back is somewhat open (click the photo before ordering) so I wore it without a bra. It is well-lined, so no see through issues there, but those who need support should keep this in mind. I think dressing it up with a belt might be a nice touch.

Nice fit - a little long
These pants fit well and draped nicely. they don't come in petite sizes, and I am only 5' 2" so they came to my ankle, rather than calf-length on the model. I wasn't crazy about the lower leg fabric because it's shimmery (couldn't see that in the picture), but they were made well.

Very easy to wear
This 'scuba' fabric is very easy to wear and the Clover Canyon prints are beautiful. I wore it to a very hot, outdoor wedding, so 'performance fabric' might have been nice (this fabric doesn't really breathe). Very versatile and you could change the look many ways by changing accessories.

Too short on model - too long on me.
I was worried that this dress would be too short, but when I checked the stylist notes and noticed that the model was 5' 10", I thought it would be a good length for me. I prefer about 1-2" above me knees, but this came to mid-knee and was dowdy looking at that length. Didn't end up wearing it.

Didn't love this - too 'blingy'
What I didn't notice in the photo is that the jumpsuit is lace with sequins. Would have been way too 'over-the-top' for summer evening party, so I never even wore it.

Simple but elegant.
A simple gold cuff. Really went well with this classy outfit. I didn't need to rent this - have plenty like this - but the whole rental process was simple, so I added the accessories to make my life easy!

Fabulous night honoring the best in my industry.
This dress is very substantial. B/c RTR sends 2 dresses, the box was actually rather heavy. Dress was VERY well made, and the fabric was beautiful. It had just enough give to it to make the dress cling where it should, but had enough weight so that the dress hung properly. Both dresses that RTR sent fit, but I wore the smaller one because it hugged my body a little better. I am barely 5'2", and the dress came to the top of my knees. It was very comfortable and very elegant. The dresses were European sizing, and I would say that the 38 would be a US 0 and the 40 a US 2.

This was a great night - an awards dinner and I saw lots of people I hadn't seen in a while.
I really loved this little purse, and although I thought I had a closet full of even clutches, I didn't have one that went so perfectly with my dress. The only issue I had with this purse is that is didn't want to stay closed. I only put a credit card, lipstick and small mirror, but I had to keep rearranging things to keep it shut. Not horrible, but a small issue. Still, it was pretty cool.
