Great earrings for Graduation!
I rented these earrings for my law school graduation. I wore a blue dress and the earrings have a hint of blue within the iridescent white, which was absolutely perfect. They were able to stand out against the black robes and the goofy hat. I'm a huge Kendra fan and I am kicking myself that I didn't get these earrings when they came out last summer. Also, they are extremely light, especially compared to the Danielles (the big oval earrings).

Seriously a Knockout, Standout Dress
I wore this dress to my last Law Prom. I was really hesitant at first because of the pattern and how bright it was, but I am SO GLAD I ordered this dress. Overall- this is one of the best dresses I have ever rented from RTR and I wish I could keep it. Its a fun party dress or cocktail dress with an amazing, bright pattern. The length was also just right- a little bit above the knee (which is what I prefer). The material was perfect- very structured and thick, similar to a bandage dress. The lining underneath at first was hard to keep from going below the dress, but a very adjustments before I left prevented the lining from peeking down. I did not wear a bra with the dress because I felt had enough support and the fabric was thick enough not stop show anything. I did wear a pair of Spanx, just for the overall look of smoothness with the dress, but don't feel like you need to. I ordered the 12 as my back up size and it did and it was not as tight as the 10, but did not wear it. With the 12, the straps were loose and falling off my shoulders and did not fully hold up my breasts, which would have required me to wear a bra. You cannot wear a bra in this dress unless you have a very low demi cup and some fashion tape to make sure it doesn't rise above the neck line.

Frumpy, Frumpy, Frumpy
I rented this dress for a gala and it was nothing like I expected. The color is gorgeous, but that is about the only benefit for this dress. The neckline is weird, especially with the little square dip in the middle. But the worst was the actual skirt of the dress- I felt that I gained 8 inches on my hips. It made me feel so blah and honestly, really frumpy. I have 36D breasts and wear size 30 jeans and size 10 suit pants. Ladies with bigger hips and thighs should think twice about this gown. Tall, slender girls- this dress is right up your alley!

Pretty and Sparkly
It was very pretty and sparkly, not wide or chunky. I did not end up wearing it to my event. If you have smaller wrists, it might look chunky because the bracelet is stretchy.

OBSESSED! If I could buy it, I would!
This is by far one of my favorite pieces I have rented. It was so shiny, but not tacky. Just the right amount of sparkle, too. Adjusted to my wrist perfectly. Don't hesitate- rent it!

Just what I wanted...except they showed up damaged
I was really looking forward to wearing these, however they arrived damaged and dirty. Very disappointed, but RTR customer service helped out. They are smaller than I expected, in terms of length (I thought they would be a little longer, closer to my shoulders). Would rent them again, hopefully not damaged.

Its not all white stones
I am a huge fan of Kendra Scott and I loved these earrings, however, they are not as pictured. When renting these, just keep in mind that the last row of stones (the lowest dangling) are CLEAR- not white. RTR needs to photograph this better to show that the stones are not all one color. The earrings are a great size, big enough to make a statement, but not jumbo. Because of the different colors, I didn't wear them. Disappointed in RTR that the photograph shows them different than the actual color. Its a great earring, but just keep that in mind when renting.

Pop of Color! And POCKETS!!!
I wore this dress to a graduation dinner at a 5 star restaurant. It was perfect- loved the pop of color with pockets. Material was thick enough to be formal, without being too hot. The pleats made it swing just so slightly for a girly feel. Loved it, and will definitely rent again (or even buy!!) I wear between a 10-12, but the 10 fit perfectly. So maybe size down, depending on your waist. Because the fullness of the skirt, pears shapes (or curvy) girls could get a smaller size.

Fun Dress!!
Wore this for a graduation party- what bright colors! If you have a big chest, be advised that the band is very tight when you first put it on. Stretches a little bit throughout the night. I love the pleated skirt, just full enough to be fun, but not too 50's housewife. Will definitely rent again!

Cute Dress... but not for fancy events
I had gotten this dress as my second option for my formal. Its cute and pretty, very coral in person. I didn't end up wearing it because I feel in LOVE with my other dress. But, this is very cute for graduation or garden weddings. Would rent again, but for a different event. The wait cinching was a little tight, but the length was perfect. Not too short, but above the knee. Breezy material- great for summer events.

Absolutely Perfect.
I rented this dress for my last sorority formal and I am so glad I did. As a bigger girl, I didn't want anything too tight, but not a paper sack. This dress was perfect. The color was amazing and I got compliments all night from everyone. Some say it runs too big, but I think it runs fairly true to size. However, if you are thinner, I can see how it may be too baggy. I accessorized with silver and blue (which I thought looked the best). I would definitely recommend wearing a pair of seamless spanx to give the smooth illusion. Overall- best dress I have ever rented. I wish I could keep it. Seriously.

Perfect Glam for a LBD
These earrings are great. They are not to "costume," but sparkle more like J.Crew (as opposed to Claire's). The gold is not to bold and the earrings looked great with my hair. Definitely will rent again- too bad I can't buy them. Not huge, but just enough so that they can stand alone or be paired with a killer bracelet or cocktail ring.

Curves? This dress is a no
The color is a beautiful teal blue (more blue than in the picture), but the detailing panel of pleating ( thats what I'll call it) sits right on your hips/love handles area and makes them look three times their actual size. If you have hips/love handles/ or extremely self conscious about this area, do not rent this dress. It will not work for your figure. Also, the bust area was a bit bigger, but that can be fixed with fashion tape. If you want to accentuate your hips and look curvier, you should try this dress. Overall, not a good rental.

Super Cute, Super Flattering
This is a great dress and really flattering. It conceals all tummy woes, love handle issues and anything else in your mid section. I had to size up because of my breast size, but it ended up working out. Wore it to a formal and got tons of compliments. Works really well with darker silver and dark metal accessories. However, the dress is much lighter than pictured and not at all metallic silver, just a plain silver/grey. It is a very plain dress, which makes it easy to accessorize. Good rental!
