Heavy but cool
My jewelry style is more minimal/dainty but decided to give this a try. It looked great on but felt a bit heavy after while.

Fun dress!!
Rented for a virtual cinco de Mayo party and loved it. The back is so fun and the material feels very nice on. Nice vibrant pattern!

Statement skirt
I loved the idea of a neon sequin midi skirt and I paired it with a black top and coat to tone it down during NYFW. I was shocked at the construction for the price tag. I opened for an oversized top bc the waist is weird. There is no hole to pull the tie through so you are basically just wrapping a long rectangular piece of fabric around yourself and it gets a little bunchy regardless of how you tie it. Still enjoyed wearing it and got many compliments :)

Loved wearing this top. Received many compliments. The material is beautiful and it looked great with the PS black trouser.

Flattering fit
A friend of mine rented this and looked great in it so I gave it a try. The 4 JUST fit me but it was a flattering cut and the pattern is beautiful.

Fun print and comfy fit
Rented these to wear to work with a blouse (I don't have a formal dress code). Easy to dress up or down. Super comfy and I loved how long they were. I wore them with a low heeled booty to keep them off the ground.

Cool idea
I loved the idea and design but the fit was a little challenging for me. Only wore it once (intended to get the matching trouser for an event that got canceled) and it wasn't super flattering on me but I still liked it. Sized down due to the oversized design but wasn't crazy about to boxy it was.

Beautiful material
Rented with matching top for St Patrick's day. Loved the weight and shimmer of the skirt. Length was great for me but may hit a little long for others (I'm 5'9"). Enjoyed wearing!

Beautiful material
I originally rented this top and matching skirt for St Patrick's day bc I don't own anything green. Ended up wearing the set twice (once for work bc you can't tell it's cropped on zoom lol). The material has a beautiful shimmer and feels high quality. I have a small chest and found the crop to be on the short side. If you have a larger bust, you may want to size up :)

Vibrant colors but odd fit
The colors were fun but the dress wasn't flattering on me and material is very slippery. I wore it once and returned it

Gorgeous tweed blazer
I have been a fan of Veronica Beard for some time but have never bought anything bc I don't wear blazers often. Rented this a while back bc I loved the colors and fabric for spring. Looks great with jeans and trouser. I've had it for about 2 months now and only worn twice but having trouble letting it go!

Cozy and stylish
I ended up wearing this more than expected! It works well for zoom calls but is also cozy to hangout in around the house with leggings. Threw it over my yoga pants for virtual trivia night and looked instantly dressed up. I don't know how practical it would be for me if I were going outside and needed to put a jacket over it bc of how long it is but I love it for my current situation.

DVF prints are always beautiful and this top has two of them! Paired with black skinny jeans but I looked great with a black high waisted midi skirt too.

Love Missoni!
If I ever get the chance to rent Missoni, I usually take it even if my size isn't available lol. I'm a 40 in Missoni but only the 42 was available and I was excited to use my free spots so I rented the 42 for my anniversary celebration (at home hence the gorgeous house slippers I've paired with it). One shoulder isn't my usual style but it was fun to wear! I didn't wear a bra with it and couldn't see through the material which is nice. Beautiful Missoni pattern/Colors!

I liked the dress a lot but I was swimming in the size 4. Not sure what happened bc I've squeezed into a Nicholas 2 before and could barely breathe.

Beautiful statement earrings!
They were a little heavy at first but I got used to them. Wore them to a party with a shirt black dress and then to a wedding with a gown. Worked well for both! Considering buying!

Great coat!
I love this jacket but took away a star for how cropped it is. I'm 5'9" but I have a short torso so I imagine this would be a tough wear for someone who has a long torso. I wasn't sure I'd like the mixed fabrics but they make the jacket interesting. It's SO warm and cozy and the sleeves are long enough for me which is rare. There's also a think adjustable hood zipped in the collar which i used today! Going to keep this for a while if i don't end up buying.

Well made
The dress is very well made and I liked the idea but it didn't flatter my figure. I think it would be amazing on a curvy figure (which I unfortunately do not have). Love the suiting influences but only wore once and returned.

Great colors
I wish it were embroidered instead of printed but still pretty. I ended up not wearing because I didn't fill the top out well. I could have sized down if it were available.

Pretty colors
This coat was ok. The fabric was nice and the pattern/colors were pretty but the fit was not flattering on me. I only rented it because I knew the collar was detachable. The faux fur makes the jacket look even worse on me. Without the fur, it's a nice notch lapel in the same material.

Not for me
The bag is interesting and seems well made but was practical for me. I feel like if I needed to carry an iPad or slim computer this would be a cool way to do it but as a purse I didn't love it.

Super comfy
These pants were so soft and comfortable to wear. The inside felt even softer than the outside! Looked like real leather. I wore it casually during the day and then dressed it up to go out at night. I wish they didn't have the elastic waist band because it caused them to sit lower on me than I would have liked. Belting it at night gave it more of a fitted look in the waist but otherwise I felt like I had to wear a crop top to create a waistline. Had them for a while before it got cold enough to wear but definitely recommend for this transitional weather.

Cool rain coat
I like the idea and the fit was fine but I felt like Patrick Bateman in it. Kept me dry which is all I really cared about but minus two stars for making me feel creepy :P fit a little loose on me but as expected for OS.

Amazing details!
It's an oversized fit, and I'd honestly size down if a smaller size were available. I wore it over my shoulders with an all black look and the embellishments on the back made my whole look more interesting. Cool look all around but may overwhelm someone much smaller than me.

Not as small as expected
The reviews I'd seen made me think I needed to size up so I gave the medium a try. It definitely didn't look too big and the length was good for me, I wanted it to sit higher on my waist which would have required me to get my normal size small. I typically wear 26 waist bottoms so I think sizing depends on wear you want it to sit on you. Will see if I can wear the M again but would love to give the S a try!

Great summer dress
Pretty material and comfortable. Too flowy for the look I wanted. Tried belting and blousing but decided it was too much work and returned without wearing.

Wish I could have worn it!
I didn't like any of the more practical options available when my slots opened so I figured why not give this one a try! It's beautiful and comfy. The material is like a melange knit jersey on the inside. I thought it was a flattering fit but I kept it a few weeks and the opportunity to wear never arose so I sent her back. Would be super fun for a fancy event or NYE!

Gorgeous material (similar to missoni lurex knit). Feels well made but fit snugly and didn't flatter my figure. Will probably look amazing on someone curvier!

Pretty and modest
I very rarely do sleeves and high necklines so I almost didn't rent this until I saw it on a friend of mine who looked stunning in it. I don't think it's my best look but the details and colors are so pretty. The silk is so light weight for summer heat and the lace portion of the neckline along with the front slit and flutter sleeves will keep you cool. I'm between a US 4 and 6 in temperley, and the 4 is on the verge of being too small if I were to have a big meal :P

Great print! So comfy to wear. I tried the 4 and the 6 but ended up with the 4 because it has some give. Another beautiful print and flattering cut from Temperley!

Easy outfit dress
I really liked the idea of this dress. I actually wore the 2 once and sent it back for the 0 because it's a looser fit. It lost a star for only having a pocket on one side. I kept trying to put my other hand where the pocket should have been but there wasn't anything there :/ but otherwise fun to wear!

Temperley does it again!
I love all things temperley and this jumpsuit is no exception. I'm between sizes sometimes but the US 4 worked for me this time. Love everything about it including the exposed back and the pockets! :)

bold pattern
I rented this for an event and had high hopes based on a similar styled I'd worn in the past. Unfortunately the print was a bit overwhelming on me and it wasn't a good look. Beautiful colors and style though.

Super comfy and stylish. Went from running errands to drinks with friends. The contrasting top/bottom make it look more like an "outfit"/more effort was made :P

Great details
Another great maxi dress by ba&sh. I took off one star for some fraying on the hem in front. It was the right length for me in flats but I'd need the long if I wanted to wear heels. Love the print and the details on the straps.

Great summer dress!
Love this dress. Great length (I wore with a low block heel mule) and cut outs keep you cool. I probably should have gone with the 0 because I don't have a lot going on up top and there was a lot of room but I think it looked ok. The mister really liked it, apparently the cut-outs are very sexy :P and it's comfy at the same time!

I wanted to love it
I love the color/print but this cut doesn't work for me. I think maybe if the smocking at the hips was shorter and the cuff smocking non existent, I would have felt more comfortable in it. Beautiful dress overall though.
