Kept for two months, wore with everything. Perfect fit, comfortable and love the twist of the color blocking but still neutral.

Style didn't work for me
When I first put it on it looked like I was trying to wear a skirt as a dress. I wore a blazer over for it for an event at my daughter's school so you couldn't see the cute part in the back. Also I have a tummy so the tie belt just kept inching up and I kept having to adjust it. If you are thin and tall and hourglass this could work. If you are plus size petite it will probably look odd. The print was pretty and the cottin poplin was nice.

I wore this with a rope belt over wide leg jeans but as a dress it's a little too short for me.

Couldn't get the 16 zipped all the way and I'm a 14-16. It was a bummer because otherwise the dress is really pretty and flattering. I like the ruffle, wide v neck and the fabric is lightweight and cool.

Shoulder bag or handhels only
I had read reviews that said this could be extended to be a crossbody but in reality that is true only if you are a child. It hits right under the boob if you try crossbody. It can be extended to be a slightly longer shoulder bag. It also isn't as structured as I had hoped, the only structure is the bottom but the sides are slouchy.. Nice leather and overall look but prefer crossbody.

Size Down
I am a 14-16 and the L was too big. That was already sizing down one size so I would say size down two sizes. I am trying a M next. There are bunjie ties at the waist to make the waist smaller and ties accross the shoulders to make them smaller.

Runs small
Cute style but runs small and this style needs to fit a little oversized so the paper bag part makes your waist look small/cinched in comparison. These were too small to give that look so wasn't able to wear.

Fit was laughable
There is hardly any fabric in the bust. Fit elsewhere but the bust had so little fabric that it went undermy bust completely exposing the bra and I don't have a particularly large chest for an xl. Cute fabric, and pockets, fit was laughable.

Cute simple dress with pockets
Cute denim dress but runs small. It flattened my chest and showed too much belly so I would have needed a size bigger maybe two. 14 fits like a 12 IMO. Very cute though. Some nice details are the pockets and it has the snaps under the straps to hold your bra straps in place which are always nice. The buttons are decorative so no gaping. The fabric has only a tiny bit of stretch so not as much give as I wanted. If the sizing options work for you I would go for it. Great fall transition dress!

Pretty Green Scuba Dress
The fabric on this is a scuba material which I actually find pretty flattering. I wasn't able to wear the XL as I rented this as mostly a back up and it was too small for me. I am more of a 14 and I would say the listed size 10 is true, maybe a 12 if you are smaller on top than bottom. The color is a bit of a soft emerald and I love the sleeves. It was a bit shorter than I like even though I'm only 5t3. If you are in the size range for this and don't mind the open back I would say go for it.

Pretty color, versatile!
Pretty plumb color, great neutral fall bag. Nice size, fits essentials. I like crossbody bags that also have a handle. The strap is comfortable. Crossbody is perfect for daytime and the handle is ladylike for a more formal look. Strap is comfortable. Only negative is it's a bit flat if not full and has a slight mini briefcase look. Have to squeeze both knobs to open but can be done one handed.

Photographs beautifully.
I rented this for a photo shoot I styled and photographed. It was a sophisticated nautical theme and the sequins added texture to the shoot and the creme trim added something different than the typical sequin number. It photographed well and I was happy with the result. My model rocked it ;o)

I love these earrings for their vibrant color. Definitely adds a pop to your outfit and it matched my pink belt well. I am used to big chunky earrings so I didn't find these too heavy. I wish I had these in every color!

Pretty in Pink
I loved this dress and didn't want to send it back. It is very comfortable and versatile. I wore it both belted and unbelted. It is a bit short belted but I thought it made it more fun and flirty. I wore this for family photos on the beach. The lace is very nice (actually nicer than the ML dress I also rented.) The underslip is polyester but that works just fine and it has some stretch. I thought this fit true to size to slightly large but it is supposed to fit shift style (some room in it.) I am going on a girls weekend trip and wish I had this to take with me. Works great dressed up with jewels or down with flat sandals. The color of pink is really pretty and flattering. Rent this, you won't be sorry!

Great dress for New Years, Day or Night
I rented this dress for new years eve but with a 5 month old we decided to take a drive up to Jekyll Island, enjoy the pool/hot tub/beach at the hotel and then celebrate New Years Day with a special brunch at the Jekyll Island Club. My husband and I are photographers so we also did a little impromptu photo sesh with my rental. The dress would have been perfect with my sky high studded heels for NYE but also worked well with my black and gold boots for a more casual/comfortable look. The dress has an adorable u back with bow detail. I loved the gold shimmer jacquard fabric. The lining is hot pink and silky but did show at the neckline and at the hem when positioned a certain way (sitting usually) but not a huge deal. Some of the metallic threads were fraying but not really noticeable unless you were inspecting the dress. Metallic threads tend to break easily so it is par for the course with the fabric really. I was told by a RTR rep that this brand ran generous but I found it to run true to size if not a tad small. A lady at the hotel complimented the look and it was comfortable enough to walk around the club grounds. This is a versatile dress I would love to have in my wardrobe!

Another Beautiful Pair from Kendra Scott and RTR
These earrings are lovely. I love big statement earrings and these fit the bill. The grey stones are really soft and are a nice contrast to the gold and stand out against dark hair. The only con is they are a bit heavy and start to become bothersome after several hours but not a big deal for an event. I wore these for a New Years Day brunch.

Worked in a pinch
I received this dress by mistake right before my family photo session. When I first received it, I thought it would be awful because it is basically a wet suit dress. The nature of the neoprene makes it a bit bulky and sculptural so I wasn't sure it would work on my size 12 petite frame. When I put it on and added some heels it worked better than I thought. The neoprene has a little bit of stretch to it so it would have also been pretty comfortable had it not been tight. I found this to run small (the dress I had ordered originally was supposed to run big). The dress has a pretty cut with the almost racerback neckline in the back and the flared bottom. This would be perfect for those looking to add a little bit of shape to a straight body type or those who like a little bit of a sporty look. Though the dress is not exactly what I was going for, it is a neat dress for the right body type and occasion so I would recommend it.

I love Kendra Scott
I am a big Kendra Scott fan and own a couple of her Danielle earrings. When I saw that these came in (a more ornate version of the Danielle) I had to add them to my black and gold dress rental. I had family photos taken for Christmas cards and these were great. For photos I love statement earrings that actually get picked up on film and these were perfect. Now if RTR would get in the Dillon earrings . . .
