Size Down and Slay
Followed the advice of my RTR girlies in the review and sized down. The jacket still gave the oversized look without being overwhelming. I def recommend renting the set, but I’m sure it will look great with jeans or other neutral bottoms as well

Difficult but worth it
I read all the reviews before I got this so I was mentally prepared for the wrinkles and this being a difficult fabric. However the look was just perfect. The sea foam green is so unique. Random, but this would be a great Halloween costume as a modern Statue of Liberty 🗽

A knockout
I was *that* girl all night. Endless compliments at the wedding I attended from all ages. The dress is understated, fitted but flattering thanks to the cut and the ruching. It was also so comfortable. I wore it with skims because I wanted a snatched look.

Chocolate Perfection 🤎✨
I’m a recent convert to browns and I love a monochrome look. This vest went perfectly with my skirt and was perfect for fall/winter.

A versatile classic
Loved this look and wore it to work. It could work for dinner or drinks too. It’s fitted so it’s giving sexy but the overall style is still a classic silhouette. I did wear it with shapewear to get super smooth look I wanted.

Classic Lines, feminine
I loved this sweater. It’s a classic basic, in a great color and the silver button detail made it look more upscale. Fit was true to size

Hint of Shimmer
Paired it with the Ralph Lauren Navy pleated skirt for a Chanel-esque inspired look. It has just the right amount of interest with shimmer but formal enough for the office

Loved this dress. Like all stretch off shoulder tops you have to adjust through your the day, but it was worth it.

It's ok. It's a dowdy look and not super flattering

Breezy and flattering
This is surprisingly flattering dress that gives you a goddess sort of vibe. Multiple people complimented me at the grocery store, on the street, and at brunch. I was also able to wear a bra comfortably and it didn't show with the cut of the dress. This would be ideal for vacation too. Rent it!

Like Fine Wine
This dress is perfect for winter formal events - it brings the drama (high slit), it is warm (long sleeves), the color is rich, and it was quite comfortable. It did run a little small but I was able to still zip up in my normal size. Also I didn't have to wear a bra with it either.

I chose this on a whim and was very happy with this bag. I loved the length and the colors really pop. It was roomy enough to fit my essentials on vacation.

Stand out in a crowd
Everything about this dress is gorgeous and unique - the shape, the fabric and the colors. I took the dress to South Africa for a wedding and it travelled well with no wrinkles. I received numerous compliments all night. As you can see I actually opted for the sleeves, as I ended up preferring that look. As other reviewed mentioned, the sleeves can be tricky but overall it's definitely worth it.

Simple and Elegant
This dress was classic. The color and the pleats are simple and feminine and the dress moves beautifully when you walk or dance. I received many compliments through the night. The fit is flattering as well as it hides your midsection. I wore a strapless bar with it and the straps on the dress are adjustable.

Golden Girl
This skirt is absolutely stunning. However I took one star off because the sizing is off and I think RTR needs to correct its sizing on this. Size 8 is supposed to be 44, but on the skirt it's corresponding size is size 10 and the skirt was big on me. I ended up pining it and rocking it anyway

The colors are very vibrant and the fabric is heavier than I thought. Got a lot of compliments. However, it was very flattering as it showed every imperfection

A pop of color for spring
Gorgeous yellow that was like wearing sunshine. The fit was very flattering but the fabric is a little unforgiving so you'll need to wear smooth underwear. I loved it and would rent again.
