Cute and comfy but a little short
I loved the style of this shirt and it felt great to wear. It was cut very short in the waist (and I have a short torso, so that’s saying something) which made me feel like it wasn’t flattering. Still a good choice for dinner out!

Perfectly short-torsoed sweater
This is a cozy sweater with good detailing that takes it up a notch. It was great to wear around my in-laws' house the day after Christmas. I have a short torso and the length was perfect for me! I didn't care for the color, I'm relatively pale with neutral-to-yellow undertones and the pink was too light for my skin tone. If I liked the color more, I'd have worn this to work or out to brunch.

Ridiculously small
I know Nicole Miller runs small but I'd order at least two sizes up on this. I'm usually a size 4, and both the S and M were too small on me--I actually needed my husband's help getting myself out of the S when trying it on. The arms are also super tight, which is somewhat uncomfortable with the ribbing. Color is brighter than it looks in the model photo.

Great everyday bag
I loved this bag and used it multiple times during my rental period for an everyday purse. It's a bit bigger than I expected and my items tended to get lost inside, but I love the different pockets (including zip & lock!) for organization. I thought I might buy this purse but after trying it decided to purchase a smaller one instead, so RTR was a great opportunity to give it a test run.

Liked it, but didn't wear it
I ended up wearing something else for the fall cocktail party I attended. The dress had a great subtle shiny pattern and an absolutely gorgeous open back. It fit me wonderfully about 2 sizes down (I'm usually around a 6 and the 2 fit great). I typically need to wear a bra and would've been okay in this without one --assuming I didn't move around much. The only other downside of this dress was the size of the skirt. I'm not sure if it was just the specific item I received, but the skirt was HUGE. The pleats were all ironed "outward" making the dress much less flattering than I'd have preferred despite fitting well around the top and waist.

Sparkly, comfy, and unique!
I wore this dress for NYE and it was great for the occasion! The sequins aren't very glittery, they're more of a matte sparkle, which I really liked. My skin is very sensitive, and my arms only got irritated a couple of times (whew). I loved the unique back of the dress -- I was able to wear a regular strapless bra -- and thought the length was perfect!! I wore it with black tights to fight the cold, and added a thick black belt because the waist didn't fit me in quite the right place. (On someone with a longer torso, this probably wouldn't have been an issue.) Overall an awesome dress!

Beautiful but didn't quite fit right!
I loved looking at this dress on the hanger, but it fit strangely on my body so I didn't end up wearing it. I have a bigger chest, and I felt like this dress pulled a little tight on the bust but then was too loose in the stomach, rather than flowing smoothly. I also noticed that the navy slip stuck out from the bottom of the dress, but it isn't anything that would have bothered me if I had worn it. It was lightweight and definitely easy to dress up for a formal event.

Didn't wear it, but cute!
This was a really cute dress that just didn't fit me right. There was too much fabric in the midsection, although it was very flattering around the bust. I have a short torso, and I think on someone with a little different proportions it would've fit great! I'd definitely recommend this dress to a friend.

Eh
This dress didn't fit me well--it fit my larger chest, but was too big everywhere else. I also thought it'd be a bit more casual. Note - I rented this dress before RTR had photos and reviews, so I'm sure if I had seen it, I would've picked differently!

These are fantastic earrings! Not too ostentatious; the stones are very small and they have a nice antique-y look to them. I didn't end up going to the formal event I wanted to wear the earrings for, but I wore them to work on Friday and out on Saturday night and they were great to dress up a more casual outfit too.

I wish this dress was as cute in real life as it looks in the picture! I ordered the XS and the S, and both had wayyyy too much fabric in the top section. Under the belt there is an elasticized band, but if I pulled it down lower to try and get rid of the excess fabric on top, you could see my entire torso through the armhole. The gathered shoulder is really cute and the dress is a great length (I can see it being too short on someone tall with long legs in heels, though), so those were positives. Also, the belt I received (only was sent one) was stained and really showing its wear. I had to wear it with a black belt that I already own.
