Pretty.
I often find the colors online to not reflect the colors that I get...and this was no exception. more purply than blue, but flattering nontheless.

Meh...
Aside from the color making me feel like a bridesmaid, the dress was just...meh. Not much shape, but I think that's the point. Pockets were fun, but overall, I didn't feel beautiful in this design. Certainly needs fancy shoes, as the dress clearly wants to be fancy, but somehow falls short of that while at the same time missing the casual mark by a mile. Again...meh.

Just Cute.
I felt the material was a bit more flimsy that other dresses I've tried from the site. It made me want to have something extra underneath...like my underwear was showing. The cut of the dress is flattering to my small upper and larger lower. Didn't need to wear a bra (nor could you) and felt nice and my B's felt nice and secure. Not sure this would be very comfortable on a large busted person as the halter tie is small and not meant to hold up much weight. I'd rent this again.

Drinkin' Thru a Staw
This was a fun piece to wear, and like some other reviews, after fussing with it a bit, the look stays in place, is warm and comfortable, and flattering to any body type. For an outdoor party in the early Spring, it worked perfect...buuuuut...you can't raise your arms very much. It was slightly hilarious to sort out how to drink a glass of wine...and I opted for the knee-bend-get-under-that-$h*T method. Still, for the right event, I'd rent it again.

Loved it, BOUGHT IT!
This sweater is what all sweaters should aspire to be; warm, structured, soft, and stylish. I make excuses to wear this sweater to any and everything...even camping.

I never want to take it off.
Like most things so far on RTR, I'm always happier with the sweaters and jackets. This was another super comfortable sweater that it'll be hard not to purchase. I've found an excuse to wear it around the house every day I've had it so far...and I'm not returning it yet. Feels like a sweatshirt but has the structure of a sweater.

Grey Ribbed Sweater
Elk
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 6"
Flowing and comfortable.
Makes your waist look tiny, but unforgiving of any extra "junk" across your back. I think I would have been more comfortable in it if I was more toned. Length was good, pockets were handy. I'd wear it again.

Leila Stripe Midi Dress
La Vie Rebecca Taylor
Size Worn: MR
Usual Size: 12

Not for narrow tops and wider hips.
If I sized up it would be too big on top...but as it was I couldn't even get it shimmied down over my hips. Not a good shape for me.

Too small.
I'm 5'7 and 170 and I couldn't even zip it up...guess I'm not the size I thought I was.
