Wore for Halloween
I wore this dress over a Halloween weekend bachelorette party when we all dressed up as witches. I went for a fashiony witch look obviously (dressed up with lots of accessories). I really liked the dress. The straps are very adjustable, and it was really comfortable. Very cool dress. Would rent again.

Loved
This pieces was more flexible than I thought it was going to be. You can wear it under a jacket, on its own, or under a dress. I wore it under a black vintage dress and under a burgundy corduroy jumper style dress, and it was so cute. I would absolutely rent again or buy. Really flexible piece for fall and winter.

Cool sweater
Definitely super casual, but I found several opportunities to wear this. Just a comfy rental if you need something casual and comfortable to mix in with other things in an order. Would have bought but found it way too pricey for what it is.

Too baggy, not flattering
Maybe just because I'm so short, but this was not cute. Way too baggy on my frame, ended up being kind of funny looking - very out of proportion for smaller girls!

Really cute sweater
I loved this piece. I wore it to work and to a couple of after work events (so maybe 3-4 times?). I wore it over a simple white button down and corduroy pants. Just sweet, cute, and comfortable. Since I was able to wear it so many times, I would have kept it but it's a little pricey for the amount of material! Would rent again!

Very comfortable dress with a lot of give
I needed a dress for a black tie optional wedding in Nashville over Labor Day weekend. I went through a lot of options, because I'm short (so long dresses are risky because I don't want it dragging on the ground - and I didn't want to wear crazy heels since I wanted to dance all night) and because Nashville in September is still gross, sweaty hot. I'm also between sizes. This dress was perfect, because it was just dressy enough (I wasn't the most formal person, but I wasn't near the most casual either) and it was really comfortable. It was just right for me at this event. Because of the design of the dress, it's not as hard to get the fit right (it's not skin tight and has a lot of give). This dress was exactly what I needed.

A little itchy - and very form fitting - but an attractive turtleneck!
I wore this turtleneck as part of a Gloria Steinem Halloween costume. It was a little itchy and pretty form fitting (it ran a little small in my opinion), but pretty. Nothing to write home about, but a nice sweater that's pretty versatile.

Rented for Halloween costume - TOO LONG
Short girls - you cannot wear these. They were craaaaaaazy long on me. It was actually hilarious. I had rented them for a Gloria Steinem Halloween costume, but I couldn't wear them! They were dragging on the floor even with my highest heeled boots. Definitely for taller renters!

Strange fit and hem
The dress was pretty, but the other reviews were spot on! It was only tight in the armpits/shoulder area, which was weird. It wasn't too short on me (because I'm only five feet tall), but the hem was sort of rolled? I would have wanted to iron it except that I didn't end up wearing it. Cute dress with a great front. I had imagined wearing it with black pantyhose and booties. Would have been cute - but it wasn't comfortable and the hem bugged me!

I wear an XS in most things/most brands. I could barely get these zipped up and they were waaaaay unflattering. I didn't wear them - just returned. I definitely recommend that if you want to try these - go at least 1 size up!

Really big in the waist, but cute skirt
I'm usually a 0 in skirts, but I've put on a few pounds in the last few weeks. Despite that, this skirt was really big in the waist - so large that it didn't sit at my waist at all but hung at my hips. It was a cute skirt, but the fit and the fact that it hung at my hips made it just an okay look on me - kind of frumpy? Pretty pattern, shape.

CUTE but long on my short frame
I loved the way these jeans fit except for the length! Unfortunately, on my five-foot-frame they were much too long (I had to roll them up twice and it completely changed the look)! I loved them so much otherwise that I considered buying them and having them tailored! Very cute jeans; loved the non-skinny jeans fit: still semi-fitted and flattering but without being jeggings-tight! And the letters were a cute touch. Would definitely rent again!

Surprise fun look
I surprised myself by renting these and then again by loving them! I wore them several times - just out and about. I loved the 90s look of them. I wore them with various sweaters and tops and usually with a pair of hightop Vans. They were such a fun look! Loved renting jeans that weren't skinny jeans! I got lots of compliments on them as well. They fit well (they're a bit easier to get the size right since they're not meant to be tight!), and I just really enjoyed wearing them!

Underwhelming
I went full 90s and wore the dress with black tights and booties, but overall it was an underwhelming look. Not a bad dress, but just kind of baggy, shapeless, and blah on my frame. Wore once, but it didn't leave much of an impression and returned it after a single wear.

Cool look on jeans so I had to keep them
Skinny jeans with a special look. They're stretchy. The 24 works, but the 25 might have been a tiny bit more comfortable. I had to have them tailored after purchase because the length was a little long (but I'm only 5 feet nothing). Cute jeans.

Okay; cool back but baggy on me
It seemed really big. I get that a little loose is a look, but this looked like a large sack on me. The cool back didn't make up for the sack-like fit. Okay, but nothing special. Wore it once and returned.

Bought it for its excellent 90s vibes
I thought it ran a little big (it appeared especially baggy when viewed from the side), but it was still such a cute dress! I got tons of compliments, wore it several times, and couldn't bear to return it! Really cute look for fall! Made me all nostalgic for my 90s childhood!

Run small
I own some other Wranglers in a 25, and they fit great and are maybe my favorite pants in the world. These were so small I couldn't even button them! Cute otherwise, but I was frustrated that it's a brand I know that the fit still wasn't consistent! Would rent again, but at least two sizes up. Am I crazy?

Runs really small
I have a few Madewell jackets (work jackets mostly), and I typically wear an XS or smaller. This jacket didn't fit at all! This jacket ran really small. Couldn't move or lift my arms without wearing anything with sleeves underneath it. Returned without wearing. Otherwise, a pretty traditional leather jacket.

Attractive coat
Good looking coat option. Pretty classic. In good shape. Rented in case I wanted to buy it for my winter coat for the season (I'm currently living in Nashville and don't require a crazy heavy coat in winter), but it wasn't such a wow that I felt like keeping it. It's pretty classic. A good overall coat.

Busier than it looked in the photos
I liked the cut and the fabric of this dress (especially for a summer party outside, which is what I rented it for), but there were details on the dress (braided material about an inch above the hem, more braided material up the front of the second half of the dress) which just made the look much too busy in person for me. To me, the pattern was enough detail/interest. The other frills made it feel too busy! Still, a very cute dress if it didn't have those extra touches - and some people might not mind. I'm just a bit of a minimalist and the pattern was already a big thing for me - the other touches were too much!

Looked like a costume on me
I rented this dress as an option for a birthday party, and I tried it on and then immediately decided against it. The style was a little too over the top for me - it looked like a costume. This could be because I'm very short (five foot nothing), so it was a A LOT of dress and ruffle on me. It was also SKIN tight in a way that I didn't like. I definitely didn't find the fit flattering and would not have worn it without spanx underneath (which I prefer not to have to do). Maybe it loosens up when worn - but it was too tight and not flattering for me to wear it long enough to find out.

Cute length and sleeves, but the low cut front didn't work for me.
I'm short (five feet nothing), and this was a little too low cut on me. And the low cut is cut in a weird square angle, and it just laid kind of strange on me. I rented it as an option for a birthday party and it ended up being my second choice of my rentals (so I went with something else for the party). Cute dress, except for the neckline which just didn't lay quite right on me.

Cute, fun, summery

Weird fit overall; didn't wear
This dress fit weirdly overall. I could barely get the dress over my head (and I don't feel like I have a huge head), and the sides of the dress were so low under the arm that I could see my whole bra strap. It was also a little too long on my five foot frame. I also thought the dress had a strange feeling material; not itchy exactly - but not soft or comfortable. It's skin tight, form fitting - so it will show any lumps and underwear lines, etc. Ultimately, I just didn't want to wear this dress.

Runs small, but gives a great shape if you can get it on!
It runs small - making it hard to get on (no zipper). But it gives you a great hourglass shape if you can get it on! Pasties are all I'll be able to get under this dress! Wish it had a bit more give, but it is a sexy dress.

Loved these high rise cords
I loved these high rise cords. They had a 70s look to them that I really loved. They were comfortable and easy to wear. I feel like they are true to size or maybe even a little bit large? But I'm between a 0 and a 2, and these weren't tight. Very comfortable, very cute. If they're still around in fall (it's really too warm in TN to wear them now), I'd rent them again (and maybe buy them)!

Uncomfortable material but I'm picky like that
I thought the sweater top was flattering and attractive. Unfortunately, I just hated how it felt. When things are tightly fit, I am particularly picky about texture since you're going to be feeling it all day. And I just felt like I was being smothered by itchy material. Didn't wear it before sending it back.

Loved it so much I bought it
I loved this light jacket. Such a fun play on a jean jacket. Very light, very comfortable, very versatile. I think it fit true to size. My only problem with it is that the sleeves are a little long on my very small frame, but I liked it so much I bought it. I'll roll the sleeves or take it to a tailor to take the sleeves in. Love it with black jeans and boots. Casual, cool, light. In love.

I liked this top. It's simple, but I thought it was flattering, cute, and easy to wear. I'm not crazy about anything with elastic at the arms, and that's really my only complaint. Cute top. Not something I'd buy or wear very often, but a fun rental.

I felt too much like Wednesday Addams in this top (and I like a little Wednesday Addams in my look). It doesn't come with a tank or top to wear beneath FYI. Nothing wrong with it, just not my style up close and personal. Seems like it was true to size.

I almost loved this top, but I was swimming in it!
This top was almost so perfect I wanted it. Great with jeans or a little more dressed up for work. The problem? It ran so large! The neckline was super low, and I would have had to pin it to make sure that any bra didn't show (this top might be better for ladies with more of a bust). The XS was just too large, and I'm usually an XS-S.

Yucky texture
I sent this sweater back without wearing it, because it felt so weird/gross/yucky on. I just didn't like the texture. I could tell that I wouldn't be able to keep it on for longer than 10 minutes without tugging it off. It ran a little small (I'm between an XS and a S and the S was plenty small/tight). I didn't love it.

Lovely dress for spring/early summer
If it weren't for the coronavirus (where would I wear it when I'm not going anywhere?), I'd have kept this dress for a few more weeks. It's perfect for spring/early summer, because it's light and flowy and fun. Love the cinched in waist and the flowy bottom. Just a charming, fun dress. I'd rent again (and I'd buy it if weren't for the price)!

Gorgeous dress but long for petites
I really enjoyed wearing this dress, but it's tough for petites. It felt really heavy and long on my 5'1" frame. If I were taller, I think I'd be in love. It's a great color and a nice material (has some give but still quite heavy). And the bottom third of the dress is truly lovely. I really liked it - just not great for my frame!

Cute dress, but I'm not sure about the materials, sleeves, or clinginess
The dress is cute, but it's maybe not the most flattering since it's really body conforming. The material is quite shiny, which I didn't love. And I'm still not sure about the sleeves. Still, it was a fun dress to wear once, even if it isn't really ME and I don't necessarily want it in my closet!

This dress was much cuter on the model than it was on me. The collar was strange (very long, droopy, and round), and even the XS was large and shapeless on me. I decided it wasn't worth wearing and sent it back. Very busy, lots going on (pattern, length, collar). Not for me.
