Beautiful!
I am so glad I trusted the reviews on this one. I was skeptical, as I am not typically someone who looks good in a drop-waist dress – – but this one hit all the right places and was flattering. It is true to size – – perhaps even a tiny bit small – –so size up if you’re between sizes. Material did not feel overly heavy or warm.

Great professional dress
Wore this to present at a conference and received several compliments. Great muted pink color. Comfortable. Would rent again for similar occasions.

Beautiful lightweight cream sweater
Very lightweight sweater (not itchy) that I wore for many purposes. Easy to dress up and to dress down. I usually wear a small in sweaters, unless I want them fitted, but this sweater fits comfortably with room to spare in an extra small. Would purchase if it was at a better price point.

Fun ski jacket
As the other reviews have indicated, this is quite puffy, but it still worked for both skiing and Aprés ski. I would size down. Lots of compliments! Great warmth. Came new with tags, which is always fun.

Great ski sweater
Classic Alp N Rock Aprés ski sweater. I sized up to be able to wear a layer underneath. It was very comfortable. Not too heavy.

Fun, classic black dress with beautiful open back
Wore this out for my birthday dinner. I love the high neck line coupled with the open back. It was very fun to wear. Probably a little long for us shorter ladies, but I still enjoyed the look. Fit pretty true to size.

Cute and warm sweater
This was perfect for a writer’s conference out West. If you’re looking for a sweater that is not quite cropped but also not hanging too long, this may be the fit you’re looking for. I am sensitive to sweater fabrics and this was not itchy. I thought I would love it a little more than I did, but it worked for the occasion.

Cute crop sweater
This is my second time renting this cropped sweater. I am very sensitive to sweater fabric, and this one is very comfortable. It is definitely a crop – – but it hit at the right place with my high waisted jeans. It may run a bit small. I rented the medium last time because the small was out – – but found I may have actually liked the medium fit better.

Warm
This is my second time renting this long coat. It kept me warm for a conference in Wyoming. Runs a little big – – the extra small still had room for me to layer my sweater, etc. underneath. I live in a warm climate, but if I lived in colder area of the country (or if the price came down low enough:), I would purchase this.

Perfect for tailgating on the Grove!
I am fortunate the game day weather worked out where this light sweater dress was perfect for tailgating on the Grove and heading into a day college football game. It was a pretty forgiving fit on the body. I am very sensitive to itchy fabrics, and, while this wasn’t what I would describe as soft, I didn’t find it uncomfortable either. I think the fit is intended to look a little shorter than this —so probably better for medium to taller girls – – but I was still happy with the rental.

Great but not perfect
Because I had read the other reviews, I largely knew what I was getting into by renting this dress. I knew the straps would be a problem as I always need to make those adjustments – – but I figured I could tie a ribbon around the back of them at the neck and wear my hair long to cover the ribbon to tighten them and have the dress fall where I wanted – – and that’s exactly what I did. The dress did photograph well and was comfortable. It didn’t hug the waist area— and while the seems on the side stuck out a little – – it wasn’t overly problematic. If you are 5’4 or less, be warned you will need at least 4 inch platforms.

Super fun dress!
This dress was so perfect for the occasion I rented it for – – a friend’s 40th birthday celebration with plentiful dancing. I would wear it for a concert as well. Very comfortable and breathed reasonably well. Loved the length for someone like me on the shorter side. This was a favorite rental!

Very pretty and classic
This was a pretty rental. It would be perfect for a wedding or baby shower or an outdoor summer event. Runs pretty true to size-although, if you are between sizes and have a bigger bust, I would size up.

Beautiful maxi
Love the look of this dress. Beautiful colors in person. Perfect date night or night out with friends or vacation. Runs a little long but was able to wear it with 3 inch wedge platforms. Straps are adjustable, which is always a plus. Fabric is a bit stiff (not soft).

Classic Lily Skort for us shorties
I have short, athletic legs and skirts/skorts need to hit at the right spot to be flattering. This one does the job. May be a little short for the taller ladies out there. Hits below the waist, so need a longer top to wear with it. Fun, bright colors.

Cute vacation dress
This was a very fun dress in a beautiful blue color. Very comfortable and I was able to travel in it easily. Among the cons, I would say it runs a little large, it’s a little heavy for a summer dress, and wrinkles easily. But, overall, I enjoyed this rental and would rent it again for future trips.
