Great maternity shorts!
These worked great! They were sometimes a bit too tight on my stomach when sitting in the car, but would still recommend. They overall looked and fit really well!

Babymoon jumper that was a bit too tight
This was not my favorite maternity outfit I rented for my babymoon, but I got quite a few compliments on it! An easy outfit, but I hated taking it off/on because it was so dang tight on my butt and belly. Made going to the restroom (something that happens often when pregnant!) really uncomfortable. Wore 27 weeks pregnant.

Loved this dress for babymoon, but tight in chest
I loved this dress so much- from the watercolor/cloud-like print, soft fabric, pockets, and overall look. The only downside is that the chest area was very tight and I likely would not have been able to wear it past 27 weeks pregnant. This was by far my favorite maternity item I’ve rented.

Fun, bright maternity dress
Wore this on my babymoon for a nice dinner while 27 weeks pregnant. Makes for a really fun and bright option. Very bottom of dress needed to be ironed/steamed, but not a big deal.

Not my favorite-longer than I wanted it and color was WAY brighter than expected.
This dress was way brighter / neon than I was expecting, and I ended up not loving the length on me. Overall the dress is a good one, but just not for me. The material is nice and thick, and therefore very forgiving. The cutouts are fun, but you're still overall conservative on coverage. For reference, I am 5'9, 140lb, and 34c.

Got tons of compliments, but it was just too tight.
I think Elizabeth and James dresses are just not for me due to their sizing. I am on the skinny side, but the 6 was just too tight for comfort and the 8 too baggy. The dress wrinkled easily and there were too many stretch marks. I also had to keep pulling the dress down. For reference, I am 5'9, 140lb, 34c.

Would not rent again.
This dress looks unique and trendy, but I was left feeling really frustrated. I normally wear a 4, but read reviews that the dress runs small. Boy, they were NOT kidding. The 6 was still super tight, but the 8 was too loose. The end result seemed like a lose-lose situation. I ended up going with the 6 since I couldn't stand the bagginess of the 8, but I felt uncomfortable with how darn tight the 6 was all night. This seems to be the trend for Elizabeth and James dresses. As much as I love the look of the brand's dresses, they just do not fit me. For reference, I am 5'9, 140 lb, with 34c bust size.
