It works
Mini skirts are not really my thing, but I wanted to try out a look and this skirt worked for my purpose.

The buttons made the cardigan more formal looking than I expected. To dress it down, wear with white jeans.

This is a nice basic white button down that I would consider keeping in my closet for multiple purposes.

A Skirt with Pockets
Utility skirt that is versatile and so easy and comfortable to wear. I wore it to both a classical music concert and on a city tour with lots of walking.

Beautiful Lace
Beautiful lace showcased in a shirt. It's a breezy top that I will consider renting when it gets warmer. The buttons can be flimsy, I had to sew one back on to get another wear out of the rental. I think it looks best with white pants that are higher waisted.

Versatile and fun
Can be dressed up or down. I think it looks best with lighter colors underneath, but it still works with darker colors. The cape shape is fun.

More Stretchy Than It Looks
This dress is easier to wear than it looks. The back has elastic that accommodates different top sizes. I found it difficult to wear a regular bra with this dress, so I ended up wearing a shirt on top to coverup. Otherwise, great dress for Easter/ spring.

Shows Midriff
I wanted this shirt to work. It's got a great color and fun sculptural back. However, it only works for those comfortable showing their midriffs.

Festive with Movement, Shows Shape
This dress has a great color and is fun with movement. It does skim the body, but it can be slightly adjusted by pulling the fringe part up and down.

Perfect Fit, Versatile, So Comfortable
I wore these pants through foot surgery recovery - they are wide enough to accommodate a recovery boot and continued to find myself looking forward to wearing them when I am back in my normal shoes. They are now my go to jeans for everyday and I haven't found anything else I rented to be as comfortable and versatile, so I bought them!

Not for Cold Weather
The shape was cool. The rivets made me feel the cold instantly when I put it on. The suggestion says to rent size 25. I didn’t believe it and rented 26, only to find out I should’ve rented 27. The rise was too short for me, and the cold rivets were a surprise - not worth it for the cool style.

Pretty, enough drama
This is a pretty dress & I love how forgiving it is (that picture of a pregnant reviewer looks awesome.) and how it provides enough drama for photoshoots. However, I somehow thought I could breastfeed in it - I couldn’t. I thought I can hide my bra straps under - but that proved to be difficult - a special bra is needed. It doesn’t have pockets & was a bit too long for my height - I must carry tote skirt when I go up the stairs. So it was fun while it lasted, but not the most utilitarian option… I don’t know why I thought I could make it work.

Cozy is a Vibe
Go to sweater for all occasions. It’s easy to wear, easy to match, easy to get complimented on. It’s warm & not scratchy. The shape is forgiving (voluminous enough) that breastfeeding doesn’t make me feel super exposed in public even though it’s not a button down. The sheep design has a different texture than the rest of the sweater which makes the sweater that much more lovable. I am having trouble returning this one - contemplating a purchase.

Nice Print, Buttons Open Easily
Nice print, elastic waistband is a smart design, thought this would make breastfeeding a toddler easy - and it was, except the buttons came apart by themselves, so I looked even more scandalous at the holiday dinner.

Function and Fashion
Great utility per its namesake! Walked around the city with my toddler who enjoyed sticking everything in the large pockets and taking them out. This perfect fall jacket kept my hands free and works with my everyday mom mode outfits. I want to own it!

I was hoping that this would be an easy go to shirt with shorts. Unfortunately, it was shorter and poofier than I expected & didn't work for my style.

Not for tiny boobs either
I read the reviews about tight ribcage and rented a size 2. However, I found myself needing inserts to fill out the chest area so that there are no gaping holes revealing my nipples. I probably should have rented a size 0 but I don’t really know my body as I am a breastfeeding mom. ie. Even my milk filled breasts were not big enough to make this dress work without help.

Would Rent Again
Maybe in size 2 petite next time if it is available. I rented size 0, it was a bit long when I was going up stairs, but otherwise the length didn't bother me too much. I wore this dress to perform in an orchestra. I thought it looked good but the cut was a bit high (showing a bit too much of my thigh), thankfully I sat in the back of the orchestra. The first time wearing this dress does take a little bit more time than usual due to unfamiliarity with the layers. It was totally worth it though, I thought the shape was so modern and flattering.

Great Alone or with Specific Tops
I had trouble styling this one with the tops I had at home so I ended up wearing this with only a bra on. I thought it would be easy to breastfeed in this but I found that I'm taking both sides off most of the time to breastfeed, so essentially the pants part is falling off as I feed. The folds/rolls on the pants do not stay rolled & I've had to adjust it each time I wore this. I like the pockets in front and on the sides.

Amazing Summer Shirt
This shirt is made of thick but breathable fabric, a print that looks like it's from the 1970s, and got me compliments at a thrift shop. It's so easy to throw on this shirt and go out in the summer & the most surprising thing is that the care instructions say to machine wash and tumble dry low!

Velvety & Beautiful for a Bump
Gorgeous velvety dress with an undeniable fall vibe. The construction and material worked out wonderfully for a shapeshifting 28-weeks-pregnant woman. Perfect for a bridesmaid on rehearsal dinner night. It was easy enough to put on, but also easy to miss a button on the shoulder. One of the buttons even became loose. However, the button situation did not detract from the attractiveness of the dress. I got plenty of compliments & wanted to keep the dress longer for another occasion: it never happened, but I will definitely consider renting again.

Cosplay Layering
I layered a dress on top of this shirt and appreciated the exaggerated collars and puffy sleeves for my cosplay attempt. Despite being in my second trimester, this comfortable statement top fits loosely.

Flexible Sizing
I wore this dress two ways: 1️⃣ on its own which made me feel cute despite being in my second trimester & 2️⃣ layering on top of a white shirt to cosplay as Mei from Totoro. The shoulder straps, waist straps, and hem straps all made the sizing flexible. I wish I could take out the entire waist strap to feel more comfortable and achieve a look closer to what Mei’s outfit, but the straps were sewn in - and for a good reason: I wouldn’t want to receive a dress with missing pieces. The material wrinkles, but it didn’t bother me for the casual occasion I rented the dress for.

Interesting Cut
This top had the silhouette of a simple tank elevated with an interesting cut, but requires specialty bras. The length is long and the fit shows curves of the body. I wore it with long camel colored pants, but my husband was not a fan of the combination. It was fun trying a new shape on, but it takes too much effort for my taste to wear it well.

Fun to Spin in
I rented this dress from the New York flagship store. A size 0 would have fit better, but it was fun wearing a size 2 of this dress and spinning in it nonetheless. The dress is forgiving & doesn't show a bulging belly after eating. It was also a versatile dress that can be dressed up or down. I looked for pockets, which would have been a nice touch to the dress, but did not find any.

Fits a pair of wedges
I rented this purse to go with a gown I wore to a wedding in Central Park. Since I planned on walking a lot, I wanted a marching purse that is large enough to fit my wedges. I swapped between the wedges and the flats (I brought a pair of BANGS high tops) through the night. My husband had a harder time walking in his fancy dress shoes than me. I also had room for a card for the married couple, lip balm, concealer, fashion tape, phone charging cable, charging battery. My phone and DSLR lens cap also fit in the purse when needed. I like the perforated look of this purse and would rent again for another occasion.
