A lot going on
I received many compliments on this one, but there was too much going on for me. The print on the dress was nice, but the belt had beading or pom-poms (I can't remember) as did the neck ties. Just needed a little editing.

Much cuter IRL...
Even though I don't gravitate towards brown clothing, I've loved every Figue dress thus far from RTR, so decided to give it a try. Loved it. It's very light feeling and was perfect for the hot humid weather of the East Coast while still providing sun protection on my arms.

I may regret returning this one....
This dress was my favorite RTR in several years. I wore at least a dozen times and I already miss it. It's thin enough to withstand the crazy hot and humid East Coast summer, while providing sun protection on my arms, but wasn't so thin that I needed to wear a bra. Love the open back. Almost every time I wore it, I received compliments from strangers!

Cutest item I've ever rented!
I'll be pushing Buy right after this review. It is beyond cute and will be so versatile. Looks great with high tops, flip flops, sandals or heels. Amazing.

Right in the chest
This was cute online and on the hanger, but fit so strangely around my chest area. It made movement awkward so I ended not wearing it out.

LOVED....may rent and buy again
This top was flirty, feminine and versatile. I wore it once with white jeans and sandals for a very pulled together look and again with distressed denim for a feminine look with an edge. The ruffles on the sleeves did not overtake my small frame and didn't look fussy. Even my husband, who isn't a huge fan of ruffles, liked it. The fabric is soft and light, so this top is perfect for hot and muggy East Coast weather. I considered buying it, but it was still pricey so I may rent again later in the season and purchase when the price goes down.

SO FUN
I usually like to rent, not buy, jeans that are really trendy, but after wearing these 3 times and still wanting more, I purchased them. The length was great - short enough that it is clear they're supposed to be above the ankle, but not so short that they broke up my legs. I liked that the flare wasn't extreme, so it didn't look like I was trying too hard to force the bell bottom trend. The fit around the waist was comfortable all day long. They maintain their shape well, evidenced by wearing them 3 times without washing!

Almost great...
The style of this was great and it could have been perfect, but the straps were just a bit too long, so it was tough to keep it above my strapless bra line. I ended up putting on a jean jacket - a cardigan would have worked too - so I wouldn't be fussing with it, but if it had been a warm day, this wouldn't have worked. The fabric is soft, the length was great and overall asymmetrical style very pretty. Just a bummer about the straps.

Perfection
This dress is unreal. On the hanger, it looks like a boring, huge (because there's a lot of fabric) navy blue jumper with big pockets. But on, wow. It fit perfectly around my torso and waist, so don't be deceived by how big it looks. The deep V-neck makes it just a bit sexy, but still totally appropriate for almost any event. I'll be wearing it to my daughter's graduation and will try to post a photo.

Perfection
This might be one of the cutest clothing items I've ever worn. I bought it before even wearing it out of the house (especially because it was 70% off retail). Feminine, versatile in that you can make it sexy or demure depending on how many hooks are latched and very soft fabric. Will look great with jeans and shorts, but also with nicer pants.

The jury is out
Very cute but they definitely run small so I've exchanged for a larger size.

Just so so
I liked the jeans on the model in the photo, but the feedback from my kids and friends was that it looked I was wearing them backwards. So I wore a wore a fitted, but hip length, sweater to disguise the front pockets. They were definitely on the tighter side.

Perfect for Spring
I wore this on an unseasonably warm night this past weekend in NYC and LOVED it. It's so beautifully tailored and made my waist look very small. The details are what really makes it.

Absolute Winner!
I kept this for about a month and wore it many times. Each time I wore it, I received compliments. You probably wouldn't want to wear a bulky sweater underneath, but I wore a medium weight would sweater multiple times. I will miss this one!

Definitely runs small
I have a pair of high rise AMO jeans in size 24, so assumed the same size would fit in these, but they are very small. I could barely zip of the zipper. Once up, I could have worn them because strangely they felt tighter than they looked, but they would have been really uncomfortable. I will be exchanging for a 25 because I think they're pretty cute and want to give them a try.

SHORT but workable...
This looked so much cuter on the other people who wore it as a dress and perhaps I'm just past the age where it looks good worn as such. BUT, my 9 year old daughter (who agreed that it was too short) suggested wearing white jeans. It worked, so it will be coming with me on vacation next week, albeit as a tunic.

Made the suitcase cut...
This will be perfect on my upcoming beach vacation. Love that I don't have to wear a bra because of the ruffle around the neckline. I like where the hemline hits - short enough to be fun, but not so short that I'll be uncomfortable.

Cute but ill fitting
Loved the style and the feel of the fabric, but it was very ill fitting in the bodice, at least on my body. I had a tough time even zipping it up. It would have looked much better if I were smaller on top, maybe more like a B cup.

Playful, youthful, flattering
I was thinking about sending these pants back because it's been so cold, and they're on the thinner side, but today was in the 50's and they were perfect paired with a turtleneck. Absolutely LOVE them. They are form fitting, but not like leggings. While the fabric has elasticity, there is a starchiness that keeps them crisp and tailored looking. Paired with ballet flats, they feltl very 1950's, like something Midge would wear in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. With my black trainers, they instantly became more casual. I could easily see wearing heels and a trim sweater for a work look. They might be keepers....

LOVE!
This sweater is amazing. So soft, interesting with the pink flecks, form fitting and flattering. The sleeves are long and hit about halfway down my hand, but it looks good, especially with the flight ruffle. I may purchase this one......

Meh
I love DL 1961s and was excited to try these, but they were totally uninteresting. Not terrible, but not great. They weren't flattering around the hips, waist and rear. I wouldn't have worn them if they hadn't been paired with a longer/sweater shirt that hid that entire section.

Flattering but scratchy
Love the style. Interesting, flattering and looked great with a plain white long sleeve shirt for winter. But the neck was so scratchy. I wore it all day, but couldn't wait to get it off.
