Can be casual or elevated!
I wore that for work event and the material was heavier than expected. This is still a really nice dress so and I feel like you can really dress it up or down depending on your event.

Perfect for World Cup event!
This was perfect for a World Cup event! The fit is true to size but the shorts are short so if you have a big bottom I would size up.

Very big on top, true to size on the bottom. This dress was very glam! I rented it for a 1920s themed Gala and got so many compliments!

Little house on the prairie
This dress was huge! I would size down for this one, I loved the pics on RTR but it wasn't my vibe in person. The material is a bit heavy, very wrinkly and bulky.

Three stars because I did not love this fit on me there was a weird rushing in the crotch area. These pants also are not friendly for thicker girls!

Clean girl set
This full set gives LA clean girl energy. The vest was very tight, and I'm a B cup. I would definitely size up for the vest. Overall cute, but very rigid and not forgiving.

I rented this for a conference and it was but heavy! The material on top is like a sweater and the bottom is satiny. It was a great transition dress but I didn't feel like it was flattering on me.

I'm onsssed with this top! The material is heavy but very stretchy. The medium runs a little bigger, I should've gone with a small for a more fitted loook. I wore this to the office then on a flight home and it was comfortable the entire time

Size Worn: M

Super chic
Super chic and cute! I actually work this to a RTR event in falls and it was perfect as a transitional outfit from an event to dinner. The size runs smaller than expected, I would recommend sizing up especially if you're curvy

I love love love this set! I've rented this two different times for two different events and have received so many compliments on it. The material is so comfy and honestly feels like I'm wearing pyjamas and is a perfect set for an all day work conference or event.

Dreamiest garden dress
This dress was the moment, and imperfect for a garden themed wedding!! The fit, the extra bows, and the sleeves added to the overall luxe look of the dress. The dress was casual but glam and felt very elegant.

I wanted to love the skirt so much, the vision is definitely there but the execution is so so. The material is so heavy and stretches easily, so I felt like I was swimming in this skirt. I would size down if I rented this again.

Perfect for a glam look!
I wore this to a themed party for an elegant glam look! This dress was definitely over the top but I loved it! The material is extremely lightweight, and the dress is not form fitting at all so it’s perfect if you’re looking for something flowy and more forgiving. Giving this a 4 because the feathers kept shedding and I left a trail of feathers everywhere I went.

A vision in red!
I sized up in this dress based on other reviews and I’m so glad I did. I’m normally a size 2 or four in the six Fit just right. I loved this dress and would rent it again for a date night or valentines!. It’s tight fitting on top and I would not recommend this for busty girls. The straps are kinda stretchy material so the dress self adjusts. The material is on the heavier side.

Beaded beauty
I got so many compliments on this purse! I wore it out for a couple of dinners with friends and on vacation. It’s definitely a conversation starter, people kept asking what the design was! Giving this four stars because the purse is literally tiny it fits a credit card lipgloss and your phone. All in all would definitely rent this again.

Not curvy girl friendly
This print is so adorable! Perfect for a summer outing or vacation, however the fit is not curvy or busty girl friendly. I have B cups and my cups were smushed in this dress and so was my butt. This dress would look best on someone with a narrow and straight frame.

Leather but make it business
I love this dress for an elevated work event. I would not wear this dress during a daytime event but absolutely love this for a nighttime event or dinner. The fit is very large in the bust, so small chested girlies get some fashion tape for this one! Overall the fit is true to size.

Flirty, fun, spring vibes
I rented this as a test trial for my trip to Asia. Although it’s very pretty, the material is not very breathable and they got really sweaty in this outfit on a hot spring day in Dallas. The outfit is very pretty though, and I got tons of compliments.

A vision in pink
I wore this out to an event with friends! This dress is on the longer side and I felt like it really took up my whole frame as a petite girl. The material is heavier than expected. The top has a bit of stretch but is pretty unforgiving. I would size up on this. The bottom material is also heavy which made the overall outfit feel very heavy and hot on a Texas day. I would rent this again but pair it with high heels for a more elevated look.

Perfect y2k jeans
I was looking for the perfect Y2K style jeans to wear to a basketball game and these were perfect. I am typically a size 4 and these are pretty true to size but I will say if you have a little bit more junk in the trunk these are gonna be a bit of a tight fit. I did lovehow high waisted these are and how I felt like they elongated my legs. I will rent again.

Hampton-esque
I wore this to the office paired with booths but this is the perfect spring into summer dress. I got a ton of compliments on this and considered purchasing it! The dress is cute but the actually fit is a bit strange and the cut doesn’t sit right on my petite frame. This dress is also SHORT, I’m 5’2 and it gave me enough coverage but if I was any taller this would be way too short on me.

Vacation dress of my dreams
The fit is true to size, I had to get a XS because S wasn't available but this still fit. Some parts are sheer and you are able to see where your underwear strap on your hip is but if you wear nude undergarments this didn't an issue.

Great design but ...
This dress had a great design, I got so many compiments on it but I could not wear this dress without a body suit underneath. The buttons are kinda loose and when you look at the dress from an angle you can see into the dress through the buttons. I only wore this dress for virtual meetings and couldn't wear it out in public. The material is very thin and light weight so I would definitely pair with some tights.

Top Gun but make it chic
I had a couple guys tell me they liked my outfit and they all mentioned Top Gun lol. Overall, I really liked this jumpsuit, I packed it on an 8 day trip that included a weekend trip and 2 worktrips. It's super versatile and can be dressed up with nicer shoes and accesories or dressed down for an airport outfit with some sneakers. This jumpsuit runs BIG, im generally a size 2/4 and could have sized this down 2 more sizes I was swimming in it.

Compliments on compliments!
I got so many compliments on this dress I ended up buying it! The only downside to this dress is that the fabric is not that stretchy and the top is kinda hard to get into. It also runs on the smaller side. If you have broader shoulders or a bigger chest, I would size up on this.

Statement piece
I looooooved this dress, I wore it to a book club meeting which I was overdressed for. I’m 5’2 so this dress was definitely long but doable with some sling back heels. The fabric is really stretchy and a little heavy but you don’t feel sweaty in it. I walked around in this dress downtown for 20 minutes and it was comfortable all night.

Love the vision for this vest but it's very baggy. I'm 5'2 with a short torso so this may just not be the vest for me. The vest is long and looks more baggy than fitted on my petite frame.

I got so many compliments on this dress. The dress fits like a dream and is perfect for channeling your inner Carrie! The fabric is very thick but still light weight. I wore this to a baby shower and the farmers market. You can dress it up or down.

So cute but see through!
I loved the style of this shirt but the fabric is extremely sheer and even the most nude pasties were still visible overall, the style is adorable and would pair well with jeans or a skirt. I rented this as a transition top for summer to fall.

great WFH dress
I was so excited to wear this out during the weekend but it had the weirdest proportions. The top was huge and baggy and there was a ton of room in the back?? The waist is teeny tiny, this is not for curvy girls and if the waist falls in a strange area, if you have a shorter torso this could be a great fit for you. The skirt was really short so I was unable to weat this out in public but it made a cute WFH outfit.

Chic but tight!
Loved this dress but the fit was strange on me. The top ran large and the bottom ran small. This dress is not for girls with hips and butts. Even if I had sized up the top would’ve looked way too big. Loved the dress though but I wish the overall fit was better!
