Sweet, modest floral
Like all Reformation dresses, you gotta size way up. This one was especially tight across the chest and shoulders, which usually isn't an issue for me. I went one size up and it was fine. I also got two sizes up and I could have easily worn that one too. It was a good ankle length that didn't touch the ground at all. I was able to hide leggings underneath (it was cold outside!)

Thin but beautiful
This coat was thinner than I thought it would be, and the weather was also colder than I expected, so I wasn't very warm in it. It also only has two buttons so doesn't close up tightly. It's bright and very soft though, and not too boxy. I really loved it, it just didn't match the cold weather!

Soft, sleek everyday sweater
I loved this sweater for everyday wear. It's very soft (25% yak???), not itchy, and doesn't stretch out. I appreciate that it has pockets, but they are a little too small and awkward to be super useful.

SO cute but SO SHORT
I was really hoping to wear this dress to work but it was WAYY too short. It's a great dress. The fabric is thick and the pattern is even more beautiful in person. I wish I could have worn it more, but it was just so short!

Comfy, pretty green.
I loved this sweater! It was just the right weight, it wasn't itchy, and it was such a pretty color. I got a lot of compliments (maybe because I never wear colors). I really considered buying this!

A basic winter coat-- just more interesting
I got a lot of compliments from strangers on this coat, and I wore it almost every day. It was a little thinner than I thought it would be, but it still kept me warm. It also doesn't button up very high, but I paired it with a big scarf on colder days. The fabric is more like a mohair than a tighter knit. I really loved this coat.

Beautiful pants!
I am a pretty solid 6, but these were uncomfortably tight. I wore them a few times, though. The fabric is thinner than I thought it would be. They are also quite long. I had to wear heels. They were still flattering, just not great in 20 degree weather! I will definitely rent again in a larger size, in warmer weather!

Big, fluffy, super warm
This coat is BIG. The puffiness of it made me a little self-conscious. It made me a little sad that it only had two hooks for closure in the front, especially in the deeply cold weather we recently had. The lining of the coat is like jersey cotton, and it was warm but stretched out easily, and poked out of the sleeves.

I loved this shirt. The sleeves are huge and wing-like. It's a beautiful color and just the right amount of dramatic.

Great New Years Eve dress!
The dress is short, but the fabric is thick, and the long sleeves made it a great winter party dress. It had just enough stretch to be comfortable and still flattering. It is much more silver and shiny than it looks in the picture!

Solid black dress
I wore this as part of a Halloween costume. The dress was stretchy but the fabric wasn't too thin. It was a little big in the hips, but the weight of the fabric made it unnoticeable. The MR was LONG. I am 5'6" and I wore 3" inch heels and I stepped on it a few times.

I hadn't realized that the edges of this clutch are zipper threads. It is SO GLITTERY but didn't shed at all. I really, really did not want to send this back.

Cute romper, but Lilly Pulitzer's sizing has been weird lately
I really loved this romper. It's super bright, and was perfect for a day on the beach that turned into dinner with friends at a restaurant. The fabric is thin (wear nude underwear) and it ran small. I am normally comfortable in a 6 in Lilly Pulitzer, but this was tight in the waist and and shorts. I wore the 8, which was better in the shorts part but still tight in the waist. Definitely order a size up.

Great dress for work event!
The laser cut-out on the neckline are a little scandalous. I put a nude bandeau underneath and felt a lot better than going bra-less, but bra-less is also an option. It was longer than I expected-- the medium passed my knees (I am 5'6"). It was comfortable and great for a work dinner.

I wish I could live in this dress!
The six was a little tighter than I expected (I usually am a 4 or 6, but the 6 was snug on me). It was comfortable enough to sit and dance all night though! It was tight, but flattering, and I was so happy with how I looked. I love the bright colors! I really, really did not even want to take this dress off at the end of the night, let alone send it back. I highly recommend it!

pretty dress with a very girly silhouette
I love this dress so much! I didn't want to send it back. It is perfect for a party. I wore it to a formal dance. It is a very shiny pale pink. It poofs out a lot below the waste, "like a cupcake" someone said. I agree, but it was still flattering! Just very fun and girly. It fit me very well, but was a little tight at the very bottom hem (I am a little bigger on the bottom). I think I might rent this one again for my birthday party!

Beautiful and comfortable!
This dress is much prettier than the picture, I think! The top is more of a tan/nude color, but it's gorgeous. It has a little bit of stretch, making it super comfortable. The 6R was a tiny bit long, but with ~3" heels on it was perfect.

Awesome dress, just didn't fit
This dress is awesome. Neoprene is such a great idea for a bodycon dress, and I love the colors and patterns. Unfortunately, the small and medium were both way too tight for me to wear for several hours of dancing (i'm normally a 4-6). Definitely order large on this one!

This was perfect for my friend's bridal shower. It's very girly, very simple, and fits well. The fabric is thick and it's made well, and was true to size. I would definitely recommend!

Good, casual party dress
I was surprised that this dress is actually a stretchy sweater material. It would be good for cooler weather. I didn't wear it because the stretchiness of the fabric made it a little unflattering. The feathers and the silver detail in the fabric are cute though!

I wore this dress to a bridal shower in July and it was perfect! The fabric is thicker and quilted, but it wasn't hot or uncomfortable. It looked great with cowboy boots and with wedges. Bonus: it has pockets!

Awesome, awesome dress!
I ordered the 4R and 6R and couldn't tell the difference. I wore the 4R, and it was just barely too long (I wore sandals with a tiny heel and had to hold up the dress when walking-- it was fine on the dance floor). Two very minor complaints: the dress is sheer in some places, be careful what you wear underneath, and there is no boning or built-in structure. Regardless, I really did not want to send this dress back! The colors are gorgeous and it was so fun to wear.

interesting, but not my style
This was sent as a replacement for the necklace that I actually rented (which was damaged and couldn't be sent to me on time). I really appreciated that RTR chose a similar, but technically upgraded necklace for me to wear. Unfortunately, this one just was not my style.

classic dress for a winter wedding
Probably my favorite dress so far! I love the color and detail on this dress. I am a 4 on top and 6 on the bottom, and I wore the 4-- it is a shift so it ended up being loose enough to accommodate my larger bottom while fitting perfectly in the top half. The fabric does NOT stretch, but it is also not a very fitted dress, so it was only a small problem on the dance floor. =] Highly recommend!

Beautiful, comfortable dress... I wish I could have kept this one!
I LOVED this dress. The fabric is gorgeous, the colors are beautiful, and it is crazy elegant and crazy comfortable. The bust area was tight, which is why I went with the 6 (my back-up size). I do not have a large bust but I am broad-shouldered/chested so that was an issue. It was just a tiny bit longer than I would have wanted, but it wasn't a problem, I held it up while walking anyway. There is a lot of fabric below the waist. I definitely recommend this dress for a more formal event. It is so pretty, but not complicated or uncomfortable.

Beautiful dress: a little daring but still very elegant.
I am kind of between a 4 and a 6, and I ended up wearing the Small. It was more fitted on the bottom, and there is a lot of fabric on the top regardless. I wore this to a conservative wedding, and I was worried about the low cut, but with the amount of fabric and lots of tape you can make it more or less conservative. I got tons of compliments all night, and I was comfortable and cool during the beach ceremony and on the dance floor! Loved this dress. The only thing I would have done differently is that I maybe would have worn shape-wear. The dress isn't exactly fitted in the hips, but it's a little revealing if you have a bigger bottom half.

Beautiful bracelet-- just a strange fit.
I wore this bracelet with the Leave a Message dress (Haute Hippie) to a destination wedding. It looked great on my wrist and the bracelet is gorgeous, but it was a funky shape and ended up digging into my wrist pretty hard. It is hinged and the two sides overlap in a really strange way (especially if your wrists are small) You couldn't really tell when it was on, so if you don't mind some deep lines in your wrist at the end of the night, I would definitely recommend this bracelet!

I wish I didn't have to send it back! The bag that I received was a little worn, but I took that as a good sign (many previous renters!) It's just a simple, gold clutch with a little snakeskin-ish texture, but it did exactly what it needed to do, and it looked great!
