Great dress for a Kentucky Derby party!
I rented this dress for a Kentucky Derby party and it was great. I got many compliments. The adjustable straps were great to keep the top tight and in place. The size 12 was too tight so I wore the 14 and it was a little big but I was able to adjust the straps and tighten things up. It is very flowy on the bottom and the slit was nice.

Fancy skirt for vacation
My husband and I were going to Charleston for a long weekend and we would be there for Valentine's day so I wanted something a little fancier for dinner. I rented this skirt and loved it. The other reviews who said it runs big- they were correct! I probably could have worn a smaller size, but I only got the 12. I fake belted it to help and give it a little extra something. It was very pretty and I really liked it.

A little something special for a birthday dinner
I was celebrating my 40th birthday and having a special dinner with friends and I wanted to get something fun and different for the dinner and this dress was it. The color is a rich green and very beautiful. The feathers on the sleeves are super fun, but just beware it is hard to eat, drink, go to the bathroom and wash your hands, basically do anything (haha!). But I do recommend renting this dress for a special occasion or something different. My friends all loved it. I wore the size large and it fit perfectly. I tried the XL and it was just a little bit too big. The sizing is pretty true to size.

Beautiful for a holiday party
I rented this dress for my work holiday party and it was gorgeous. Surprisingly I had to size down and I am not sure why. The dress fit very well and I received so many compliments. The slit up top by the neck is so unique and also a bit sexy. I loved the dress.

Gorgeous dress!
I rented this dress for a formal fall wedding and I loved it. I rented the 12 and the 14 wasn't available so I was nervous, but it did fit me just fine. There is boning and wires inside the bust of the dress so no need for a bra, which is nice. The color is more bluish-green than navy, but it is still a gorgeous color and dress.

Great dress for a spring wedding
I really liked this dress, however because I am short it came down way longer than I would have liked. I sort of rolled the midsection and that worked. I did get a few compliments on it and it was comfortable to wear.

A little sparkle for my birthday!
I rented this sparkle blazer to wear out for my birthday and it was fabulous! I wore the 12 because it was a little looser in my arms and more comfortable. The blazer was soft and not stiff like some sequined tops. I loved that it was multi colored sparkles and not just silver!

Sequined top for a holiday show!
I wore this top with a cute skirt for a holiday show. I liked it and received a few compliments from people. However, I will say that I would not describe it as a "sweatshirt." It zips in the back and is more like a sweater than sweatshirt. Also, the sleeves are huge and hang/drape off your arms. It wasn't an issue, but if you are looking for a more fitted sequin top this is not it.

LOVE the color!
I rented this dress to wear to dinner one night on vacation in New York. Both sizes fit fine but the M fit just a bit better. I am 5'4" and the dress came down past my ankles. I had to carry it when I walked, so it was way too long for me. Other than that, it was comfortable and I loved the color.

Sparkly birthday!
I rented this top to wear to a fancy dinner for my birthday and it was amazing. Very soft, not itchy or hard with the sequins. So sparkly and beautiful- I got lots of compliments. Both the large and extra large fit, but I went with the extra large for a little more room. LOVED this top!

I didn't end up wearing this
Unfortunately neither size worked for me and it was too late to get a back up, so I just didn't wear this. The 10 was too small and tight around my mid section. The 12 was too big up top and was loose in the back. The mid section fit better in the 12 but I couldn't figure out how to make the top work. It's too bad because it was a beautiful jumpsuit and the color was amazing!

Great dress for fall wedding
Honestly, at first when I got this dress it was not looking like the photo and I felt it was very Little House on the Prairie. The sleeves were very poufy and I did not like it. But I did not have any other options and the wedding was the next day. I flipped the bottom of the sleeves in and I thought they looked a lot better. The color is gorgeous and it has POCKETS! I got lots of compliments and by the end of the night I did end up liking the dress.

I loved this dress. I wore the size 10 and I loved that the straps were adjustable. The dress fit so nice and was very flattering. The color of the dress is a beautiful green, which is a different color than I normally wear. I received many compliments!

Perfect jacket for a concert!
I needed something fabulous for the Elton John concert so I rented this blazer. It was very soft and not heavy, which was perfect. And I actually had 2 different women come up to me on separate occasions during the night and compliment me on the jacket. I really loved it, but I never took a picture in it. I would recommend renting it!

Sparkles for my birthday!
I wanted to rent something fun and sparkly for my birthday dinner with girlfriends and this blazer was perfect! I paired it with jeans and a band tshirt for a casual and fun look. I wore the medium for a more fitted look, but the large fit just fine too. It was very soft and comfortable, not stiff or anything because of the sequins. I loved it!

Great for a fall wedding!
This was actually a backup option because my original item did not work out. I thought the dress was a little tight for a size 14, but it was very fitted. It was a little heavier too, so I would recommend wearing it in cooler weather. I was skeptical about the pattern at first, I thought I might look like I was wearing curtains, but then once the dress was on it was very nice. It wasn't my favorite rental I have ever done, but it worked for the wedding.

Beautiful dress for a summer wedding!
I rented this dress for a summer wedding and I LOVED it! It is so flowy and romantic. The length was great and everything fit really well and was comfortable. I rented the 10 & 12 but went with the 10. They were both pretty similar in size, but I felt great in the 10.

I rented this top for a live show I was going to. I only rented a size L and it was a bit big, I prolly could have worn a size M. But it was such fun top! It was so sparkly and very comfortable, not itchy or scratchy at all. I would definitely rent this top again!

Sparkles for Vegas!
I rented this skirt for vacation in Vegas and all they had available was a size M. It fit fine, was maybe a little snug. I would have definitely preferred the L, so that means I will just have to rent this again. I LOVED this skirt- it was so sparkly and I got so many compliments!

Didn't wear
I didn't end up wearing this dress- the size 10 was a little snug and the size 12 was either too big or stretched out as my entire bra showed in the front. It is so incredibly cute in the photo, but it was just not flattering or cute on me.

Rented for a beach wedding in Florida!
I rented this dress for a beach wedding in Florida and I just did not like it. I'm short, so the dress hit me more as a maxi and the ruffle on the bottom was not flattering. There are buttons all down the front and because of wear they were gaping open, exposing my bare skin and bra. I felt so self conscious all night around the wedding family. I received a bunch of compliments on the dress and I did like the color and pattern. It just wasn't what I was hoping it would be.

Gotta sparkle for NYE!
Even though we can't go anywhere for NYE, some friends were having a small dinner party so I rented this top to wear. For a curvy girl it really is a crop top. I had to wear a black cami underneath, which was fine. I wore the larger size because of that. But it is very comfy and the sequins don't scratch or itch- they are soft. I loved this top- it was so fun!

Beautiful top for my birthday dinner!
I absolutely loved this top! I wore the L because the M was just a little too tight in the shoulders and I wanted to be comfortable. It sparkles so much, and I got so many compliments! It's not itchy or hard like a lot of sequined clothing, it is very soft and comfortable. I want to buy it!

Gorgeous jumpsuit for Christmas
I wore this for my family Christmas and it is so beautiful. The green velvet is amazing. I got so many compliments (someone even called me Beyonce!) and I loved it. The medium fit fine, but the vneck was a little low so I safety pinned it. But otherwise everything else was amazing- the length was fine, the fit was fine.

Kentucky Derby party!
I rented this dress for a Kentucky Derby party and it was great. I felt it ran a little small and the top of the dress showed more clevage than I would normally show. It was very pretty and flowy, however the liner underneath is very short. It was perfect for the party and matched my hat.

I rented this jumpsuit for a weekend trip to Vegas and it was perfect! We had a fancy dinner and went out for drinks and the jumpsuit looked great. I was worried it might be too long (because I am fairly short) but it was a perfect length. And bonus- it had pockets! I loved this jumpsuit and wished I didn't have to return it.

Date night to Hamilton!
I rented this dress for a night out to the theater, but I also wore it to work one day so it is a great transitional piece. It was very comfortable and has some stretch to it. I just felt that the large fit a little better than the medium. It was a nice dress. The color seemed a little off to me- it doesn't look at dark black as the picture on the website, it almost looked navy or greyish. But not a big deal- it was a nice dress!

I'm bringing sexyback!
I needed something fabulous to wear to the JT concert and I have always had my eye on these pants. By the time I finally got around to renting them they only had a large- but I went with it. I will say they were too big, but I wore them anyways. They do run large, so I would size down. They are very sheer, so I wouldn't recommend wearing them in the colder months. They are not as gold as the picture makes them look, but I thought that was ok. I thought these pants were super fun and I felt super confident in them. In a sea of blue jeans I stood out- but I liked that!

Shakin' it off with T.Swift!
I rented this jumpsuit for the T.Swift concert and I had never worn a jumpsuit before, but thought I would try it. I'm short so I was worried about the length, and to be honest the small was the perfect length. But it was too tight around my midsection, so I wore the medium instead. It fit fine, but I just thought the length was a little too long. Super cute and comfy for a night of dancing with friends!

I needed something fabulous to wear to the Beyonce concert and this jacket was definitely it! I wore the large because the medium was tight in the shoulders and I needed to be able to move my arms around to dance, right?!

Beautiful dress for a gala!
This is a really pretty dress and I wore it for my husband's work gala. I wore the large because the dress is really form fitting and the large allowed me to wear spanx underneath. The dress has so much stretch and it is super comfortable. I thought the fit was really true to size. I am on the shorter side (5'4") so the dress went past my knees, which I wasn't crazy about but there was nothing I could do. Overall, it was a great dress to rent.

Wore these pants for a Beyonce brunch!
I figured leopard print would be perfect for a Beyonce brunch, right? These pants were just ok, not my favorite rental. They are extremely high waist, moreso than in the picture. You wouldn't really be able to tuck anything into the pants. They are also really light weight pants (not ideal for a December brunch in Minnesota, but oh well). There are no pockets. But I did receive a few compliments on the pants. I loved the print!

Nice dress- beautiful color!
I rented this for a wedding I was a guest at and I loved that it had sleeves for a mid October wedding. I thought the dress was beautiful and I got many compliments on it. However, there were a few cons about the dress. First, the slip underneath was longer than the lace overlay at time. I had to pull the lace down so that it wouldn't be shorter than the slip. Second, some of the lace was worn and pilling. Third, the slip underneath did not allow me to wear Spanx, which I wanted to do to smooth things out. The slip became skin tight when I had Spanx on and stuck to the Spanx. Like I said, overall a great dress and I got lots of compliments on it but it wasn't my favorite RTR rental.
