Unflattering
The dress is high quality and a classic look, but the wide shoulders and high neckline made me look boxy and the waist didn't hit me in the right place. I also didn't love that the armholes were a little large. I'm sure this dress would look beautiful on someone with a different body type but maybe not the best for a more petite frame.

Bright color, fresh take on a classic fit
I wore this dress for work. It was a pretty eye-catching color, wrinkle resistant which made it nice for travel, and a fresh take on a classic silhouette. I did find it a little hard to pair with a jacket but liked it other than that.

Fun color, annoying inside pocket
This purse came new with tags. It is an adorable color of yellow that was surprisingly complimentary with a lot of outfits. It is definitely on the smaller side, big enough for a phone, keys, and a slim wallet but not much more. My only gripe is that the phone contains one slimmish inside pocket that runs the length of the purse that was just floppy enough that it kept getting in the way every time I tried to put something in the purse. Ok for a rental, but definitely would not buy because of this.

Fun color, strange fit
This shirt kept shifting up in the front and down in the back, which would have been fine if it weren't for the shirt's stand-up collar that looked weird drooping down in the back. The neckline was low, too low for work, and the overall fit of the shirt was short and oversized and not particularly flattering but the color was super cute (and that's coming from someone who can't wear most shades of yellow).

Not for me
These pants were a lot stiffer and baggier than I was expecting. The fit was not flattering.

Cute color blocking
Fit is easy and oversized, slit in front makes it hard to wear tucked.

Professional, flattering, and beautiful color
There is quite a bit of stretch to this dress's fabric making the fit very forgiving. That combined with the flattering flap of fabric at the midsection, I would definitely suggest sizing down if you are you are unsure about which size to rent. I normally wear a 0 or 2 in dresses, and got this in a 2. It looks fine on, but I think I would have liked the 0 a smidge better. The cut is very flatter and conservative enough for a professional setting. The color is beautiful in person. I would definitely recommend this dress.

Nothing special
This sweater was really soft, but other than that I didn't love the fit. It was not that flattering on and got super static-y in the dry Colorado winter. I rented it thinking I would wear it on Valentine's Day while I was running errands around town, but I didn't even end up liking it for that and ended up returning it without wearing it.

Wider than expected
I liked this jacket as a fun alternative to my go-to black leather jacket, but the xs was about as wide as it was long which gave it a kind of ballooning effect. It was comfortable and provided some warmth, but you would have to wear layers to be warm enough in this on a cold winter day. Overall I thought it was just ok. I would recommend maybe sizing up for some added length unless you are petite, but I can't promise the bigger size won't also have added volume.

Soft Bomber Jacket
VINCE.
Size Worn: XS
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 117lbs
Bust: 32C
Exceeded expectations
This sweater is really cute in person. It is comfortable and roomy, but not in a boxy and unflattering way. The back is slightly longer than a front, which I think works well for this sweater (not a feature I always like). The "stitching" adds just a little something to keep this sweater from looking like any ol' sweater I already own. It is nice and warm, a tiny bit itchy, but worked well with a layering shirt and that solved the itchiness problem. Overall I loved it and am tempted to keep this one.... or just rent again.

Sparklier than wanted
I read the reviews and new that this shirt had a little glitter to it, but it was much more apparent in person and felt just a little flashy for my taste for everyday wear, so I didn't end up wearing it. But it was, otherwise, as pictured.

Ok
Overall I liked this shirt. It has a forgiving silhouette that is still somewhat flatter because of the cinched waist. The waist and arms were a little higher than I would have preferred. Shirt could be dressed up or down and is definitely work appropriate.

Cropped
I really like this sweater. It is comfortable and warm. The material is not scratchy at all. But, like some other reviewers, the version I received is cropped, not oversized. I'm 5'5" and the bottom of the sweater hits at my hips. It's still cute, just not as pictured.

Beautiful dress - runs small
I've looked at this dress so many times because I think it's beautiful, so I finally decided to order it as an option for a wedding. I usually wear a 0 or 2 in dresses and ordered this in a 2. I was surprised that it was tight in the rib cage and bust. (I've got a narrow rib cage and am by no means busty.) But it is the piping detail that has no give and I found it to be just a tad too tight on me to wear comfortably. I may try ordering up a size to see if the 4 would work better because it was just as pretty in person as it was online.

Ummm?
It's a simple, but elegant and well constructed dress that provides just enough structure to keep everything looking tight and right. I liked that the conservative cut made it feel work appropriate. My only complaint is that the material kept bunching at my lower back so that I had to keep tugging at the skirt of the dress to smooth it out. I don't believe this was a sizing issue as the dress fit me everywhere else with a little give and I do not have an especially curvy back end.
