Love these
I love these pants. I am ordering them in a smaller size though. They were a tiny bit too big but a belt fixed that. I think I just got the wrong size. Wore them for lots of business casual work events.

Very cute
It was long but looked good with heels. I didn't love it because the material was a little stiff and I only like soft materials

I got a medium which was oversized on me but still wore it multiple times. Loves the way it felt. Like a hug.

Relaxed jeans.
I wore these for work from home a lot. They are ankle length on me and I'm only 5'4". I liked that since they didn't drag. Comfortable for sitting. A little loose but in a relaxed way.

Great overalls
I loved these. They were so LA cool. The waist fit snug and then they are pleated so they fit my hips and butt. The strap ends stick out in the back so I safety pinned them carefully to the inside of the should straps. Loved these

Great color, runs slightly large, excellent for vacation
Great color, lots of compliments. Wrinkled in my suitcase and I didn't iron it out. It runs a bit large. I'm normally an 8 but this was a 6. Felt a little snug in the shoulders but nothing that made it unwearable or uncomfortable. Just had to adjust a little and pull down in front. It was cute, good cotton and was great for vacation.

Bright yellow at Coachella!
Loved this top. It zips in the back and was TTS. The color was nice and bold. Made of good thick Cotton. It was very fun and intentional (approved by 16 year olds) I wore it with the pants and I loved the outfit. I did walk about 10 miles that day and because the outfit was new, the cotton chaffed me very badly on the legs and a bit under the arms. I think for normal wear it would never be an issue or maybe after it softens through washes. But beware if you plan to walk a lot in this.

Wanted it to work but not quite right for me
This was a really good dress but not quite right for me. The color was pretty underwhelming and the fit was right on my rib cage so the cut outs made me look a little squeezed. I do have a little bit broader rib cage and shoulders w more of a hourglass so it might work better for others who are slightly less broad. Good length. Good fabric. Nothing special overall and just didn't work for me

Sizing was hard to figure out and it was a bit too big.
I loved the dress and wanted it to work. The sizing was odd though (European perhaps?) and I think I ended up w a 12 somehow. I am normally an 8 and this was not as big as a TTS 12 would be. So a 10 might have been the right fit. It was too long, loose around the waist, but the big problem was my boobs (36 C) didn't have any support and there's no way to really hide a bra in there unless you're doing some fancy Hollywood boob taping. The fabric was good cotton, a little weight too it.

Comfortable, great color and a surprising head turner!
I got this dress and wasn't totally in love. It doesn't show off my curves with any finesse, instead it felt a bit frumpy and loose on the waist. I'm 5'3'' & size 8 went past mid calf. But I ended up keeping it and wore out to dinner in San Diego. And I got stopped with so many compliments. I think it is the color and the ruffles. I heard murmurs about the color everywhere I went. I ended up loving it and feeling very pretty and bright and feminine. Going to keep it a while longer!

So beautiful and sparkly!!!!!! Just too long
This dress is beautiful! It is so sparkly. I loved it, but it wasn't quite the right fit for me. It was fine on top (I would have liked it a bit tighter but it was very comfortable as is). Unfortunately it was just too long. Even in 5 inch heels it was so long in the back that I would have been tripping on it. The leg slit is pretty high up, when I tried to see what it would be like to pick up the dress a bit to walk or turn, I realized I was flashing the room. If you are tall then do it!

Great concept but huge!
Very pretty and luxurious. The faux fur was good quality and in good condition. I ordered a medium and was swimming in it. It went down almost to my ankles, and the whole thing looked a couple sizes too big. The coat material was a little thinner than I expected. Still warm but I don't know that it would have kept me warm in NYC where I intended to wear it. (Although I run cold so maybe a more weather resilient person would be ok). I would like to rent again in a smaller size.

So silky!
I loved this dress. It was such quality material and fluttered in the breeze when I walked. It is light weight and perfect for warm days and nights. It fit a little loose so I was glad to have the ties to shape the waist. This dress felt like quality.

This is a statement dress. There is a ton of fabric, and it feels like being inside of a cake. I loved it and it looked awesome with the collar buttoned up.

Comfortable, casual and put together
Fit a little loose. Very soft and a little bit warmer fabric. It was good for a windy brunch at the beach. Didn't love it, and I didn't get a single compliment which I normally do w RTR gear.

It's a boxy smock in boho format
Didn't wear. It was very boxy on me, and didn't look good with my shape. It fell to my mid hips so the whole thing just made me look blah. Probably would be good on different body types if you are going for a low key boho vibe.

Beat color, conservative, lux, modern
This fits large but has a belt tie to create your waist. I sized down and it fit great. If I had worn my regular size it would have been way too big. The color is so bright. The material wears like heavy linen. I wore it to a happy hour in Orange County and got compliments from so many people. I felt very up to date and modern but covered for work. I paired it with simple gold earrings, and chunky leather heel sandals to keep it low key.

Awesome one piece
Feels like cotton with stretch. Great for hot weather. Lands about the ankles so it's a little cropped - even on shorter figures (5'3"). I wore this a ton. It was easy to go the bathroom since it was stretchy. And it fit over my bum and my curves. Very chill and put together look.

Warm, amazing quality, so cool
This is a great stylish jacket. The quality is thick and outstanding. It has structure to it so it isn't just a floppy flannel. It has pockets, a hood and just feels awesome. I wore it to the ocean, to yoga, on casual days. It looked and felt great and I got compliments all over the place. Loved this.

Loved this. I wore it during a winter trip on the coast which can be freezing. This kept me super warm and it felt like a lux puffy coat- like it felt so good on. It has a retro vibe and I just loved it.

Silky and fun
Fit a little big but that added to it feeling comfortable and intentional. Since it was a little big in the boobs - I wore a strapless bra with a little padding and that helped fill it out. The animal print was cute. It feels so good. Very light and breezy. I wore it out to dinner several times. Looked good with heels but could be dressed down with sandals too.

Love this sweater! Bought it!
Great sweater. Cozy and great quality but not bulky. The stitching gives it a super cool detailing and the whole thing looks great but understated. I wore this a dozen times and then my mom saw it and loved so much I bought it for her. I liked the large. It was oversized on me for a casual elegant oversized look - but not too much. Recommend!

Cute but made me feel a little frumpy.
I think this could have been cute with the right accessories but by itself I didn't love it. The top was scratchy and because it was that kind of material that stretches it looked a little cheap when paired with the ruffled short skirt and flowing sleeves. On the other hand, because it stretches it fits well on the top so that it helpful. I felt like it wasn't quite put together enough for date night, not comfortable enough for casual wear, and too short for work.

Great color, fabric and philosophy- but wrong fit.
The top part billowed out and looked awkward. The pants hit me at ankle and with the pockets on the thighs the whole thing was unflattering to my shorter curvier figure. I tried tucking in the excess fabric on top but it turned into a hassle so I just didn't wear it. Loved the fabric, pattern and concept. The reality was a miss for me.

Vibrant statement!
I loved this dress. The color is so vibrant. The dress is made from a thick linen so it can wrinkle but the whole vibe was very romantic and elevated but not stuffy. The side cutouts kept it sexy but the length kept it understated. I got compliments everywhere I went from men and women randomly when I was out and about. It was perfect for summer evenings.

Beautiful and stunning
I loved this dress so much. The only reason I didn't buy it is because my weight has been fluctuating so much in COVID. The dress was brand new with tags when I got it. So well tailored and pleated that it fit my curves like a glove. The straps had two settings so I was able to adjust that and it zips up. This was a quality piece and I got compliments while I was out from strangers. It was very long- down to mid shin but I liked it. The pattern was bright and beautiful. Loved this one!

Comfortable and fun!
I think I ordered the medium. It fit a little big but the whole dress is designed that way so it was fine. The quality of the dress felt amazing, like being inside of a wedding cake made of cotton. I wore it out and about for drinks by the beach and to WFH. It was a very cool alternative to sweatpants. Loved the dress and wore it several times.

Nice jeans
Nice jeans. Comfy. They fit fine. I'm a bit more curvy and so the jeans had a bit of a gap in the waist. It wasn't too bad though. I was able to go for a bike ride in them that was comfortable. I have short legs so they are a little longer on me than the model. I've also been enjoying taking advantage of RTR since I've gained weight during COVID quarantine. I ordered a size bigger than usual since my own jeans are a little right right now.

Fun sweatshirt
Shoulders are super big and it is very short. Maybe a size smaller would have looked better? I actually liked this top. My only real complaint is that the inside feels synthetic and I was hoping for more of a cozy sweatshirt feel - it is quarantine season after all and comfort is king! It was nice to mix it up though.

Warm, cozy and bold!
This was super warm, cozy, and good quality. This was a great jacket to add into my quarantine dog walk repertoire. This was also a find that made me really appreciate RTR. I would never buy this but I loved wearing it out for a few days. Runs large. I wish I had gotten a small instead of medium.

I wore this to a 4th job interview that was meant to be more informal. It was professional, fun, and hugged the right curves. It is a thicker cloth so even though it has give, it made me feel covered up. I got compliments from strangers on my outfit.
