Too small
I loved the look but it was too tight for me to pull off comfortably.

Comfy
Loved this piece - it was comfy and layered it kept me cozy while outdoors but allowed me to stay comfortable with a cardigan indoors.

Too large & too long sleeves
I love the color and feel but the sleeves were ridiculously long - I couldn't wear it. A bit bummed but lesson learned.

Fun but subtle print
I love Bobeau drape cardigans and the gray leopard print brought an element of something a little more to the outfit

Amie French Terry Cardigan
B Collection by Bobeau
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 12

Warm & pretty comfy
At the end of my second trimester so belly is getting bigger and wanted something warm for a Valentine's Day Date night with husband. This definitely runs a bit small; the shoulder area was really tight and I didn't even want to try to see if the Large would fit so went with the backup XL. Relatively comfortable but I learned it has some wool in it so if you're like me and reactive to wool, I'd recommend against it. Definitely warm and perfect for a rare snow day in Seattle.

Maroon Sweater Dress
Thakoon x RTR
Size Worn: XLR
Usual Size: 12

Bust: 36B
Simple but sparkly and light earrings
Rented this to go with the Oscar Wilde dress & a Kate Spade necklace (which sadly looked awkward so I wore a Natori necklace I have). I loved how these earrings were simple but sparkly and so lightweight. They were a nice touch and I plan to rent these again.

Flattering jewel toned dress!
Rented this for dinner at a really nice restaurant to celebrate my husband's milestone birthday. Dress is a beautiful shape although I did add a black belt to help define the waist a little bit more. Loved the pockets it has and the color really pops in certain lights. Material is not too heavy or light and would work well in many seasons. The dress I wore was showing a little bit of wear in a couple parts but with the pattern it wasn't noticeable. Despite that, I'm planning to rent this dress again!

Oscar Wild Dinner Dress

Gorgeous color and flattering shape!
I wore this to my company holiday party and received tons of compliments. The shape is flattering, the purple is gorgeous, and I loved having pockets! The material is rather stiff (which helps it keep its shape) so if you're looking for something that's more flowy and moves more, I wouldn't go with this dress. Because of the material it did arrive with some wrinkles so I ended up having a nearby dry cleaner press it. Size wise, it ran a smidge on the small/tight side. Overall, I recommend the dress.

Violet Femme Dress
Theia
Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 160lbs
Bust: 36B
Added the right amount of classic, feminine sparkle!
The necklace went perfectly with the Theia "Violet Femme" dress. Wore my hair up which showed off the cute ribbon bow in the back. As lovely as the necklace was, it was showing serious wear on several of the gems where a substantial amount of the silver backing had worn off. Thankfully, it wasn't super noticeable in the dim light.

Tie Up in Crystal Necklace

Beautiful and comfortable dress
I wore this dress for my fancy birthday dinner with my husband. I ordered the size 12 & size 10 as my backup and I'm glad I got a smaller backup as the 10 fit better. If in between sizes, I would recommend sizing down. The color is a beautiful, vibrant, and rich magenta berry color and the dress itself was pretty forgiving which is nice (this was the first lace dress I've worn so I was a little concerned on how forgiving it might be). The bottom hem had a slight fray and I noticed a couple spots where there appeared to be small holes in the lace (it didn't appear part of the design) but with the pattern, it wasn't noticeable to anyone else. Paired these with Nicole Miller Plantation earrings for some zing, but a statement necklace instead would work just as well. Overall, I was pretty happy with this rental.

Botanical Berry Sheath

Beautiful earrings that added the right amount of sparkle
Wore these with the Carmen Marc Valvo lace sheath dress in berry that I also rented from RTR. They are a bit on the heavier side and larger than I would normally wear so I would consider them as statement earrings, but they added the right amount of sparkle. Will definitely rent them again for the right outfit.

Beautiful, sleek clutch
Beautiful clutch, slightly larger than I expected, but better to have it a little bit larger than smaller.
