Good quality, body hugging
This dress was a thicker knit so I felt like I was safe from any panty lines no matter what I wore underneath. It is very body hugging and I personally didn't feel comfortable wearing it to the office. But I hybrid WFH so I wore it around my apartment

nice, airy basic
This was a nice basic, easy to layer and hit at my waist in a flattering way. It was a little too cold for me to wear it, I'd recommend it for warmer weather since it is a thinner garment

Comfy, office appropriate
Pants on RTR are a hit or miss for me because I'm shorter but these pants were a win. The waist fit well and were structured enough that they didn't sag down if I put my phone in the side cargo pocket. I'd say they sit exactly at the floor without shoes on so I opted to wear a heeled boot. Note the front pocket is a faux pocket

structured, not stiff
In my opinion, it was not as stiff as others shared. But I have a similar structured, sweatshirt kind of top. It's not stretchy though. I am on the shorter side so I didn't think it was too cropped. It fit find with high waisted pants. Otherwise, I love a fun sleeve and got compliments. There's a button at the sleeve opening, if you button that first and then tie the ties, it's more comfortable.

can be a little itchy if you're sensitive
I'm very sensitive to wool and usually cannot wear anything made of wool. But this sweater wasn't was doable. I did have to wear an undershirt to cover my torso but my bare arms were okay to be in contact with the sleeves. I really liked the color blocking and it was a nice elevated option for a more casual look

Made for a gothy/witchy Halloween office day
I really liked this dress. It fit very well, I loved how flowy it was, and I felt the cut outs were modest enough. The ties on the sleeves aren't really adjustable. I think just an elastic and the ties are more for show, so just be aware if you don't like tight feeling on your forearms.

very flattering, but straps were too long
Loved wearing this dress but unfortunately needed to use some safety pins to alter the sleeves a bit. Otherwise the fabric was super comfortable to wear and I liked how it hugged the body. At 5'2", the dress hit right at the floor for me.

Love the sleeves, not the buttons
I absolutely loved the sleeves. It is pretty thin and not itchy. I completely missed that it had jeweled buttons though. Those unfortunately aren't my style at all. Otherwise I might've bought this because the silhouette from the sleeves is so cute.

Definitely size up if you plan to layer
I originally got the XS but it was a little too tight for my liking, I switched it out for an S and it fit so much better. It's a well constructed garment that holds its shape well while still being very comfortable. I wore the vest by itself and layered with a white tshirt or a turtle neck underneath. It is a cropped fit so I always wore high-waisted pants. I considered keeping it because it's so unique for my personal style, very dark academia

Loose and comfy
I received these brand new with the tags still on (a first for me and RTR). I'm a millennial with too many skinny jeans but doesn't know how to get the baggy style work. But these made it so easy. The darts that give it the "barrel" shape were clean and it had the Levi's "premium quality" label on them. Size 25 ended up being a little too big for me at times when my weight fluctuated from PMS. I loved wearing these jeans! I easily wore them the most out of all my items but didn't feel like they fit well enough in the waist to pay basically full price (since they were brand new).I ended up buying a pair of the Levi's cinched baggy barrel jeans so I could adjust a bit more.

Not for the short girlies
I'm 5'2" and unfortunately these pants got no wear because they were way too long. Wearing 3 inch booties would still be too long on me. Nice fabric and pattern though, wish it could've worked out

Garden Fairy Tea Party Vibes
Loved twirling around in this dress. There were a few layers/ "tiers" of the skirt but it was still very light. It fit very well and I could go without a bra. It felt pretty fancy and I didn't really feel like I had a reason to wear it, but I dressed it down with a denim jacket. I think this would've been great for a summer wedding/ bridal shower.

Well Structured Linen shorts
Loved wearing these linen shorts! They do get wrinkly easily because that's the nature of linen, so steaming was necessary especially when I traveled with these and unpacked them. Love the color, it's very unique in this style and I got compliments. Pockets were deep and functional. I will miss them

Prairie Dreams
Loved wearing this dress! I wish I had more events to wear it to, but I wore it around the house just to wear it. The skirt is lined so you don't have to worry about anything showing through. As a smaller chested person, the bust was was a good fit because you can adjust and tighten the ties. It was a bit tight around my waist/ stomach but the scrunching on the back helps make it better

Not for the small chested
Like the other reviews, there is no good way to wear this top. The top is very pretty but the back is very transparent so if you wear a bra, you could see it clearly through the shirt. But not wearing a bra is not an option since the front it very loose. It's also constructed in a way that it puckers in a weird way if you try to pin it together. The only way I felt comfortable wearing this top was to put overall on top of it.

Absolute Fave
I absolutely love this top. It's wonderful for hot summer days because it's light and made of linen/cotton. The back shoulder panel is the only part that is lined. I have worn a white tube top and a cropped white tee underneath and it looked perfectly fine. I really like the elastic hem that cinches in the waist. I heavily considered purchasing this item, I kept it for the last 3 months

Beautiful, lightweight, comfy
I was originally wearing heels but had to take them off because they were scraping my heels but the length was still good for my height. Very easy to get in and out of. I packed it in my suitcase on the hanger, bent in half and it didn't need too much steaming for it to look good as new. Only negative is that I have a smaller chest and I thought this would be okay because the bust area of the tress has ties, but beware the the ties at the bust are not adjustable!

Cute dress for the spring/summer
Really liked this dress! super feminine and lightweight. I didn't realize until I saw it in person that the flowers leaned a little neon. It's not super noticeable but just not my personal style. The ties around the bust are adjustable so it fit my chest just fine and I felt comfortable going bra-less

Not really my style
The construction of the top is very nice with a side zipper that makes putting it on very easy. It's lined and the colorful stitching details make it unique. Prone to wrinkling though given the material. I brought this me while traveling and had to steam it quite a bit. Also, the sleeves were just too puffy for my personal taste.
