Amazing pants. Not for me.
These pants were gorgeous. Beautiful heavy fabric. The problem for me was the pleats, the thick (think martial arts belts) attached belt and higher rise just didn’t work for my small frame. Those 3 things together added a lot of visual weight to my midsection. Not a good look. I’m sure if you’re very tall and slender, this could be a great look. Just a little too much going on when you’re more compact. I hated that I couldn’t wear them.

Fun, unique dress. Runs small.
I loved this dress. The fabric was substantial and high-quality and the colors are gorgeous in person. It doesn’t photograph quite as nice. I wore this to an advertising gala and with military boots for a slightly funky look. It got a little chilly so I threw a cardigan over it later in the evening and pushed up the sleeves and it still looked great. I am a solid 4 and even in a 6 this dress was almost too tight around the waist and arms. I used boob tape for the girls to avoid dealing with bra straps and anything showing. It’s a little short, too, but it worked for me because I’m short and wasn’t wearing heels.

Meh
This blazer got some good reviews but I didn’t particularly love it. I’m on the petite size and it just sort of swallowed me up, even in a small. It hung too long and didn’t have a ton of shape. It sort of looked sloppy on me. Probably better for taller ladies and those with broader shoulders

Perfect fit
These shorts are so versatile. I dressed them down with sneakers and a white tee on a weekend running errands and dressed them up with a nicer top and wedges for a date. They fit beautifully and TTS and I got so many compliments on them. They fit a little higher on the waist and weren’t snug at all (I don’t have a particularly small waist). One of my favorite rentals.

Meh.
I wanted to love this, but as others have said, it's very thick, stiff and heavy denim. No stretch, no give and no breathing. It was also very short length-wise, but not just the inseam. I am short and couldn't lift my arms without the crotch riding up uncomfortably ... ya know? If you have a long torso (I don't), this won't work for you. I will say the pattern was great and the color was on point. Everything else was a miss for me.

Cute, breezy summer dress
Great little dress with personality. It fit a little bit large but still wore my regular size small. Definitely need a strapless bra for this as the sleeves end up off the shoulder, which adds to the cute factor. I'd rent this again for sure.

Perfect summer top
Great flowy little top that I wore for daytime social outings with friends. I paired it with denim shorts, a bright green crossbody bag and a cute summer hat. It was easy to wear with no fuss, super flattering in the shoulder area and breezy on a hot day. I wore a strapless bra for comfort, but could easily have worn a regular bra. It has tiny blue and red stripes that are barely noticeable unless you're up close. Adorable, fun top. Would rent again for vacay or summer casual events.

Flirty and fun little dress
Great tropical print dress is perfect for warm climates or vacations. I rented the small and it was just a tad snug in the top, but may be fine if you're smaller chested. The one shoulder and ruffle details made it fun and flirty. The length is a little short and I'm pretty short, so be aware. I also wore it on a relatively windy day and by the water so I had to be more mindful than I'd like. Overall it was a fabulous rental and I'll plan on renting again once it gets a little warmer.

Not for me
The color is much more drab in person and it fit like a snug, thin t-shirt with no give. I am typically a small and it was definitely a body con fit. Maybe 10 years ago I would have worn it anyway, but it was a bit too form fitting for me, especially around the butt. Not forgiving in that area but the ruching in the front is nice and gives a more defined waistline.

Great, simple dress with a touch of character
Loved the side ruffle on this simple dress. I ordered the 4 and 6 and ended up wearing the 6, which just fit me. If you normally wear a 6 you might want to size up because 6s are usually a bit large for me. Modest while still a little sexy and short but not too short. The fabric was lighter than I expected but it still felt like everything was properly covered.

Great cami for a Caribbean vacay
Very colorful and fun cami that could be paired with white pants or shorts. Definitely need a strapless bra. It does a little cling action from time to time but not too bad and never unflattering.

Cute top, nothing super special
Fit true to size, went well with a lot of things and doesn't really wrinkle. I wore it to work and took it on a trip and it traveled well without having to iron. It was cute but a little busy for my typical taste. You can wear it buttoned or unbuttoned at the neck to change up the look or to be occasion-appropriate.

Super cute, dresses up or down
I am normally a size small, sometimes xs, but based on other reviews I went with the xs which was a perfect fit. It was cute with skinny jeans and heels for a night out or flats for daytime. I'm thinking about making a purchase because I'd definitely wear this one often. I also layered under a cardigan and it looked super cute.

Not for petite ladies!
I am a sucker for stripes. Bonus if they're blue and white. Unfortunately, this one didn't work for me at all. The cut was very wide and the flutter sleeves were very overpowering for a small frame. I wanted to love it but the proportions are really geared toward a taller woman with a larger body frame. I'm sure for those blessed with presence, this would be lovely.
