Super simple and versatile
This dress is super comfortable and can be dressed up or down. I usually wear an 8 to 10 in dresses and got this in a medium. The top was a little big so I had to wear something underneath (plus I'm a 34DD) but I would not go down a size because the bottom was TTS. The straps were also kind of long and kept moving so without the bralette, there'd definitely be some sneak peeks. There's a little snap closure on the skirt that helps to keep the skirt closed when sitting or on windy days, which is helpful. I wore this dress all day from errands to dinner at night, on a warm day, but stayed cool and looking cute (I think). Overall, a nice simple dress to rent on a summer weekend day when you've got lots to do and no time to go home and change.

Flattering and comfortable!
This is a great dress! I wore it to work but it's versatile enough to wear on the weekend, for sure. It's very comfortable while still being flattering, since it has the tie at the waist that allows you to give it more shape (great for those of us with curves who don't look as good in the oversized sack trend). I'd rent it again!

Very versatile!
I used this twice: once with a pink dress for a wedding and another time with a navy blue dress for an event. There's yellow in the link as well so tied in some yellow earrings to pull it all together with the navy dress. Looked great!

Much more vibrant than pictured!
I didn't get to wear this dress because it was way too big on me (especially on top) but it's a gorgeous dress. I was considering using fashion tape but it was heavy and I didn't want to worry about it falling off all night. I'm usually an 8-10 and go for 10 when there's no give in the fabric and when the notes say to go up for a backup size. However, notes were not on point for this dress. There's tons of reviews saying how big it is so trust me, SIZE DOWN. Colors are beautiful though!

Heavy but worth it!
I wore these with a pink lace gown to a wedding in the Hamptons. They're funky and colorful, just how I like my accessories!

Better than pictures!
This was my last choice in a string of rentals for a friend's outdoor late summer wedding. I thought it was plain in the pictures and a little too girly for me. However, with the right accessories (funky earrings) and a relaxed hair style, this dress was perfect. It also hugged me in all the right places and the lace was very forgiving. Whatever you do though, DO NOT LISTEN TO THE SIZE NOTES. I am typically an 8-10 and went through two orders of both those sizes before I finally got a 6 which fit well, but the straps were still too long. In fact, the only reason I didn't give this a 5 star review is because of those damn long straps. All in all though, great dress and I got loads of compliments, which is the whole point right? ;-)

Great colors, awkward fit
I wanted to love this dress and I really did like it a lot, but I had to tie it so tight just to keep it in place. It fell weird on top and just never seemed to look right on. Too much work!

Pretty boring
Simple skirt that runs too small. Not the best.

Nice color but not very flattering
This dress is cool style but I think it'd work better on someone more tall and lean (I'm a pear shaped). Great color though!

Super pretty and romantic shirt
Runs big so get a size down. I wore a regular nude bar under and wasn't noticeable. Wore to work with black skinny crop pants and oxfords.

Really cool dress
This dress had so many great details to it that I couldn't help but love it. To be honest, I didn't LOVE the way it looked on me -- it's more suited to someone with a straight and narrow figure (I'm a pear) -- but the dress deserves to be worn, so wear it I did ;)

Perfect fit and super femme
Despite the fact that this dress was super girly, it fit so well that I couldn't help but love it. If you're a curvy gal like me, get this dress! It just feels good on. Too hot to do this, but I imagine it'd look cute with a denim jacket and some brown booties, something to give it a little more funk. But definitely recommend this dress and this designer!

What a cool dress!
This dress was so awesome that I wore it despite the fact that it came with a big ol' stain in front. No one saw... I think? Whatever, this dress hugged me in all the right places and was super lightweight, perfect for NYC in August. Get it!

Such a flattering dress!
This dress was great on my shape (pear) and I was able to dress it up with heels for work and down with sandals for everyday. If you're between sizes like me, I recommend sizing down because there's stretch to the material. I would def rent this dress again!

Just OK.
Nice lightweight shirt for work. Colors are muted for the summertime but would wear in the fall with a pair of boots. Overall, an okay shirt.

Am I missing something?
I so wanted to like this dress as it looked cute and comfortable on the model. However, when I put it on, while from the waist down it fit perfectly, it covered about half my chest. Was I supposed to wear something else with it? Am I missing something? While I'm all for a respectable amount of side boob, this was more like just covering my nipples. I even turned it around thinking I had put it on backwards but no. I'm not sure how even a smaller chested person could wear this (I'm a 34 C/D). What a bummer!

I'm in love!
This shirt is perfect! Very pretty and romantic. True to size and can dress up or down with it. I wore it to work with wide leg cropped black pants and pumps, but you can definitely wear with jeans as pictured on the model. Get this shirt! You'll feel pretty in it :)

PERFECT SKIRT!
I just loved everything about this skirt! Lots of reviews said the waist is small but it's supposed to sit on the smallest part of your waist. I'm pear shaped and this skirt was super flattering. The color, the pleats, the fit, everything about this skirt is perfect!

Great versatile piece!
This shirt can be dressed up for work or down for the weekend. I probably could have sized down, as the sleeves were big and you could see my bra on the side. However the shirt is cropped, so if you're between sizes and choose to size down, keep that in mind. Overall, I found it to be a fun and flirty top :)

Looked great but stretched out throughout the day
This was my first experience wearing a jumpsuit. I didn't think they were made for me as I'm a pear shape, but the wide legs on the pant made this very flattering. It was slightly big on top but that's to be expected (I always have to size up for my bottom). However, this had some stretch to it and I may have been able to size down as by the end of the day, it was pretty loose and long. If you are true to your size, get your size but if you are in between sizes like me, might need to go to a store and try it on or take a chance and size down. Otherwise, beautiful piece!

Cute but not for the pear shaped
This dress looked super cute in the picture but there was no stretch to it at all, so when I sat, you could see between the buttons on the lower half. I also had to tie the belt kind of tight because it was way big on top, which then made it bunch up quite a bit. I did get a few compliments but it was less comfortable than it's worth. This is probably better for women with less curvy figures.

Super flirty and pretty color!
This dress is a great color. True to size for me on the hips but a bit too big at the shoulders and sleeves (you could see my bra- the ruffles covered that mostly, though). However, I'm a pear shape so if I had sized down, it would not have fit my hips. Not a perfect fit but worked well for work and I felt cute in it ;)

Perfect fit and feel!
This is a great shirt for work if you work in a corporate environment but still want a little flair. Fit perfectly and had a great weight and feel to it. Definitely recommend!

Great color but runs large on shoulders and chest!
Loved the color and style but this shirt was pretty big on me, aside from it being a boxy cut. You could see my bra on the sides but looked cute with a black bralette. If you size down, be aware that the length is on the short side so if have a long torso, it might be too short. I'd give it a try again in a size smaller.

Meh.
Shirt was just okay. It fit well and is a nice color but is pretty basic.

Great fit and lightweight for summer!
I'm usually a size 8 on top and this jacket fit perfectly. It's super light weight for the summer, and works for the office or weekend with jeans. Loved it!

Loved the color on me!
I got so many compliments on this dress at work, particularly about the color. The fit and feel of it were perfect for the summer-like weather. I usually go for more A-lined dresses since I'm pear shaped but the tie at the waist did a great job of accentuating my smaller waist. Great summer dress for a more casual work environment or the weekend!
