Loved loved loved
This was probably my favorite dress rented from RTR. I rented it for work and then wore it to a family party too. Online it looked like little bubbles on the dress but they are metal ruling cutouts with another layer of black behind them. Professional without being boring. Could be short for some, but I'm 5'2'' so it worked out great. Only thing is if you put both hands over your head (I was reaching for something at work) it creeps right up. Super comfy and flattering.

Hot pink, great fabric
This is a true quality dress. The way the fabric is, you don't even need spanx. I loved the dress solo with heels. Last minute I had to travel to a very cold climate and made it work also with boots, tights and a sweater. Versatile. Comfortable too.

Easy Breezy
This shirt was so comfortable yet fancy professional. I lied it and got complimented all over the place. I work a tank underneath since I was moving all over at work and the Ruffles can shift. Easy fit and flattered a curvy girl.

Comfortable and sexy
Loved this piece! By far my favorite rental. I work for a casual birthday date. I was completely comfortable while feeling Saturday night stylish. It can be dressed up or down. Flats or heals, minimum jewelry or a lot of accessories go a long way. I'm 5'2" and thought it was a perfect length. The top if not careful, could slide a bit but everything was kept under wraps :-)

The dress I hated but everyone else loved
When I first tried on this dress I absolutely hated it. The material looked different online, it's much heavier in person and not quite as shiny. The dots are more of a texture thing. It was longer than expected hitting right below my knee cap. (I'm 5"2'). But in the end it fit well enough that I didn't want to risk getting a different dress that wouldn't have worked. Cons: heavy material- not meant for an outdoor spring wedding in Arizona, shoulders were loose- felt like I needed shoulder pads and yet it cut into me a little under the arm. Pros: the waist cinched very nicely, strangers did give me compliments and said I was best dressed, it was a fun dress on the dance floor and photographed nicely.

Bridal shower & Mimosa Type of Gala
The 10 was a bit small due to my wide back. Print and the way the dress puffed out made me feel a little big. Prob a better dress for slender vs curvy girls, but all in all it was comfy and a great first rental experience. Also the zipper was a bit sticky, even when I wasn't wearing it (so it wasn't that it was too tight). The fabric was nicer than I thought, this dress could really be dressed up for a nicer affair.
