Itchy
These were really itchy on me and I felt like the fit in the crotch was weird on me. Not a fav. Only wore long enough to style it and decide it wasn't for me.

Cute for winter
This is a fun sweater. I ended up not wearing it because of the warm September weather. I might rent again when it's cooler out.

Fine Blazer
It's okay. I think it's a nice basic blazer. I found it a bit itchy and heavy for the late summer season, but that's on me for ordering it now. I was able to make it work and look nice, but I just don't think it's special enough to rent - I feel like I could find something similar a lot of places.

Material wasn't my fav
There was something a bit off about the fit of this on me. The fabric was slinky and a bit thick at the same time - so the drape didn't feel great. I also felt the ruching made this sit weirdly on me.

Gorgeous color, Feels amazing on
The fabric of this dress is incredible. It’s so silky and lightweight, yet it doesn’t feel flimsy or see-through. It holds its structure quite well, which is good given all the pleating. I also loved the color and the floral motif. Personally, a shirt dress is just a favorite silhouette for me. Only complaint is the buttons - they’re beautiful, but too fine for this garment and I did end up safety pinning the bodice to keep it from unbuttoning at work. For me, that’s a minor issue for such a nice dress. I’m considering buying it.

Love the pattern, not the fit
This dress is such a cute idea. I love the roses over denim and was excited about the sheath fit. But, as it turns out, this silhouette is not a good one for me. It looks okay while standing, but when I sit it rides way up and bulges around my hips- not cute. Also, I felt the top button was a bit high and the stiffness of the material meant than when I sat the straps of the dress would even rise up over my shoulders. Somehow it came off as matronly because of the neckline, I kept wanting to unbutton the top button but it wouldn’t sit well when unbuttoned. If you plan to just stand in this dress it might be cute? I would love this fabric and pattern in a different silhouette - maybe an overall jumpsuit?

Silk feel a bit weird to move in
I liked the fabric of this, but I found the neckline to be a bit unflattering. With any movement of my arms the neck would bunch up. So, unless I was sitting still, it wasn't very flattering

Nice basic
This was a nice shirt and I definitely wore it a few times. I didn't think it was super special or anything "runway" that I had to rent. Just felt like a shirt I might buy and have in my closet. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Wore this everywhere
I loved this shirt! In the photo I paired it with mid-rise pants, which I wouldn't recommend. Definitely pair with high rise pants for the best look. I wore this with shorts too and it was a super cute look. I almost bought it, but I don't think the pattern is an 'everyday" staple for me.

Don’t love, don’t hate
I really like the big florals of this pant. But… something felt a little off to me. It’s very voluminous in the hips, which is already a bigger spot on me, so not sure it was flattering. The material is also relatively stiff, so for a palazzo style pant I kind of wanted something more flowy. I liked it, the look worked, it wasn’t my fave.

Just too big
I wore this for a date and I loved the pattern and idea of this dress. But the neckline just hung and gaped on me. I was so self-conscious all night trying not to fall out of the dress. If you have narrow shoulders, I don't think this one will work for you - the neckline went all the way down to between my breasts, and not in a tight, sexy way... but a droopy, oversized way.

Unexpected attention-getter
I wore this to an in-office team onsite and was surprised by how many compliments I got - one from my (female, formerly NY fashion-industry) boss. Billowy sleeves and lots of layers are typically not me, but this was a really great blouse. The material is smooth and silky and the pattern and colors are really beautiful in person. I'm considering buying it, but my only gripe is the neckline. I have narrow shoulders and the neck kept drooping down and I felt self-conscious all day pulling it back up. If I bought this I'd want to add a few stitches to close up the necklace maybe .5 inch and then it'd be perfect for me!

Stylish?
I received multiple compliments on this at work. But I felt a bit childish wearing it. It was so oversized on me and the arms went well past my hands. I know it's supposed to be oversized, but maybe I got in my head about it and felt like a little kid playing dress up. I don't know, other people seemed to think it looked good.

Good colors, not a great fit
The texture and drape of this just didn't sit right on me. And on top of that, I received it just as the spring weather started to warm, so I never wore it.

Super comfy
I found myself wearing this even on the weekends. It looks put together buy feels like Pjs. I don't really think it suited by body though, I felt a bit like I was growing in (very comfy) fabric.
