Casual dress for taking a walk

The print is fun and the colors are super vibrant, but the dress was not particularly flattering. I wore this for a day of sheltering-in-place and a walk around the neighborhood. Unfortunately, Northern California was experiencing a bit of a heatwave when I wore this dress and the fabric was not suited for the weather at all. The dress is made of pretty thick fabric, which made it pretty uncomfortable in the heat. I did not really like this rental--it was, overall, quite frumpy.

Cute jumpsuit for sheltering in place, but the fit was a bit off

I rented this jumpsuit for WFH/sheltering in place and it was comfortable enough to wear all day. It is a lovely true white and breezy enough to wear in relatively warm Northern California spring weather. The fit was slightly off, though--I usually wear a 6 and this item in a 6 was a bit big. However, the oversized aspect of this jumpsuit was nice to wear when lounging around the house. Overall, though, my husband and I loved this item and thought it was a super fun jumpsuit.

Cool girl jacket was great for everyday

This Y-3 Graphic Blouson Bomber was super fun and went with a lot of different casual outfits. The jacket was pretty oversized and fit a bit larger than expected. I do think I would have liked it a bit more if it was slimmer. The sleeves near my wrists were my biggest issue with the jacket--they were just too voluminous. However, the decal on the back of the windbreaker was pretty great. I wore this jacket for errands around town and it was perfect for that.

Comfy pants to wear around the house

These adidas Danielle Cathari Firebird Black Pants were super comfortable, but were rather unmemorable and unflattering. I wore these around the house and for running errands and the pants were good for that purpose. The material of the pants was quite thick, which made them a bit warm. They fit true to size, though it was definitely a looser fit.

Cute earrings for WFH, but nothing special

These kate spade hearts earrings were cute, but unmemorable. The pink and red earrings are true to color, though smaller than I expected, and extremely light. They came with earring backs, which was nice, so I did not have to pilfer backs from my stash of earrings. I rented these for WFH and errands and they looked cute with an athleisure outfit. However, they were nothing special, in my opinion. I only wore them once before returning.

Gorgeous Cinq a Sept dress...I will definitely be ordering more from this designer

This Cinq a Sept maroon dress was super pretty and quite flattering. I rented a size 8, though I am normally a size 6, and the dress fit well. It was a bit tight in the thighs, but was an absolute perfect fit elsewhere. The color was a gorgeous maroon and I absolutely loved the ruffle on the skirt. I wore it to a work dinner and thought it was exactly the right vibe of professional and polished. The dress paired perfectly with nude patent leather pumps and gold jewelry.

Cool girl skirt

This Marques' Almeida skirt is definitely for cool, fashion girls. I thought it looked super cool, but, sadly, it looked a bit meh on me, and I did not receive many compliments on this one. It might have just been too long which added to the voluminous effect to the skirt. Though it was not the most flattering item, I did wear it a couple of times paired with a fitted black long-sleeve top, black tights, and black heels. The fabric is pretty stiff, though not scratchy, and it was comfortable to wear all day.

Great color and flare to the dress

I rented this Great Jones dress in a medium and it fit true to size; I am usually a size 6. It worked well for a couple of daytime occasions and was comfortable to wear all day. The dress was a fun color and fit well, though black shapewear tights were needed to smooth everything out. Since the dress cuts in at the shoulders, my regular bra showed--I solved that problem by tossing a black jacket over the top. I paired the dress with black ankle boots. In sum, I liked it, but it was not overly memorable.

Luxe dark red velvet dress

I liked this dark red velvet and conservatively-cut Black Halo dress, though it was not super flattering on me. For reference, I am 5'4" and normally a size 6. I rented a 6R and the dress fit true to size. On my height, the dress came down to mid-calf, which was not a great length for me. I was, however, very warm in the dress, which was nice, as I wore it in a drafty cathedral. Overall, I would not rent this Black Halo again, as the dress seemed to swallow me up, though the color was absolutely gorgeous.

Valentine's Day Perfection

I loved this Milly red minidress. Originally, I rented it for Valentine's Day, but ended up wearing it a bunch of times. I am 5'4" and normally a size 6 and the size 6 Milly dress fit very nicely. The dress was, however, rather fitted in the midsection and hips, and I found shapewear was needed to smooth everything out. It was a bit short, though I still felt comfortable sitting in it. I wore it with black strappy shoes and bare legs. The dress was perfect and I would definitely rent it again.

Fun, cute, flattering dress for anytime

I wore this dress several times--out to dinner with black tights and pumps, to a brewery with bare legs and strappy black shoes, and with black tights and combat boots for running errands. It was incredibly cute, fun, comfortable with an elastic waistband, and flattering. I am 5'4" and, normally, I am a size 6; however, in this dress, I ordered a size small and it was perfect. Because of the cut of the dress, I wore a strapless bra on one occasion and with a regular bra (the bra straps were covered by a jacket) the other times. I would definitely rent this dress again.

Stylish statement-making coat

I loved this stylish, midnight blue coat and wore it for my wedding anniversary dinner and out for drinks afterward. Since the coat is so puffy, it only looked good over tight clothing, so I wore a white fitted dress under the coat. It fit true to size and was very warm and comfortable.

Gorgeous earrings for elopement

These gorgeous earrings are for pierced ears and were incredibly light. They are clear with shiny gold starbursts. I wore them a couple of times, including to my elopement, along with the Badgley Mischka White Award Winner Gown. Another time, I wore these glam earrings with a more casual outfit and they worked equally well.

Good dress for a party

The dress is a very deep green, which appeared almost black when I viewed it online. It was a fairly heavy dress and very stretchy. Overall, the size medium was too large for me--I'm normally a size 6--and the dress looked a bit unflattering. If I had rented it in a small, I think I would have liked it a lot more than I did; as it was, I thought it was good, but not great. I dressed it up with black pumps and gold jewelry, which looked nice for the party I attended.

Lots of compliments for Thanksgiving dinner

Fit great and it was relatively easy to take on and off, though there is a button at the neck, which was hard to get to myself. Received tons of compliments when I wore this to two Thanksgiving dinners. It was flattering and allowed me to eat a reasonable amount of food, but the jumpsuit probably would not have felt comfortable if I had eaten to excess. I would rent this again.

Christmas bag that went with everything

This little bag was perfect for the Christmas party season--it is red, green, and some other colors, so it went well with a lot of outfits. It fit lots of essentials, though it is a very small bag. I wore it as a crossbody, which was great when I was shopping and attending parties. The bag was in excellent condition, as well. I didn't want to send it back!

Great dress for Christmas photos

I wore this dress to take photos for my family's Christmas card and it was perfect! The photos only show the top quarter of the dress upwards, which is very flattering. The lower 3/4 of the dress was rather unflattering, in my view, as it was quite big and hung off my body. However, despite the fit issues, I received tons of compliments when I wore it. Plus, I felt like Kate Middleton in it, so that's a win.

Trendy pairing with a black faux leather skirt

This was a cute, trendy rental that I paired with a black faux leather skirt. It did not work well for me personally, as it was a bit frumpy on my body type. However, it was a cute and comfy sweatshirt that was nice to wear on a cool fall evening. The hood was the best part of the sweatshirt--it was very flattering and covers the entire head.

Good dress for everyday

This dress was good for running errands while still looking put together. It was not the most flattering dress I have ever worn, though I cannot put my finger on exactly why that is the case. However, it was a good length for me at 5'4" as it hit right at the knee. The dress had heavier fabric which made it a bit warm to wear in early fall Northern California weather. Overall, I would not rent it again, but it was good for an everyday dress.

Unflattering, itchy dress

Sadly, this dress was disappointing for me. It was large everywhere, so I definitely could have gone down a size, and the fabric was rather itchy. However, even if I had rented a smaller size, I doubt I would have loved the dress--it was a pretty unflattering cut. The sleeves are cute, though, as they are made entirely of lace. I wore this to church with black pumps.

Modest dress appropriate for church

I wore this dress to church and it was perfectly appropriate--not too tight, not too loose. Was a bit baggy in the waist, which made it a bit unflattering. Good length, though, as it fell right below the knee. I wore this with a green winter coat, as the weather is definitely becoming colder, and nude clogs. The dress was easy to zip up and very comfortable to wear.

Good dress for meeting

The dress fit true to size, but the medium was a bit big on me, specifically in the chest and waist, and ended below the knee. That being said, it worked well with a black blazer and black heels for a charity development committee meeting, where I needed to look put together. The color was a very bright yellow, which was unusual and flattering on my pale skin.

Versatile Dress

The dress fit loosely, which seems to be the way it was meant to be. While most reviewers seem to have worn this to work, I wore the dress with gray ankle booties to a college football game and it was a perfect outfit. Lots of compliments! I would definitely rent this again.

Gorgeous neckline

The material was neoprene, I think, which made the top very warm to wear. This top would be much better in the winter time. Ultimately, I did not end up wearing the top out due to a quality issue (which RTR immediately resolved for me), but I would have worn it with black jeans. The neckline was elegant and flattering, though it did ride up a bit for me.

Wore this to brunch twice

I wore this dress to brunch two days in a row because it was super comfortable and paired nicely with gray ankle booties. Even in 90 degree weather, this dress was great to wear and did not feel heavy at all. The color was not necessarily great on my pale skin, but the cut of the dress was flattering and it was the perfect length for me at 5'4." Needed an iron, though, as it arrived quite wrinkly.
