Wedding at a super fancy venue
This is THE PERFECT clutch to wear as a wedding guest. It's super sparkly yet understated and looks gold or silver angle and flash dependent. Fit everything I needed, including a Samsung Galaxy S7. Will definitely be renting again.

Rented this beauty for a girls night out
One word describes this jumpsuit for me - OBSESSED. I absolutely loved it the minute I put it on. I ordered a 14 (usually wear a 12) and it fit perfectly. It is so beautiful in person I couldn't wait to wear it. Thicker material, but very forgiving. I unfortunately don't have a photo to share of it because I didn't get to wear it - it arrived with some damage by the zipper, but the RTR staff was awesome and so apologetic when I told them about it (got it delivered on a Saturday to wear that night, so they had no way of getting a replacement to me - my own fault). Can't wait to have an excuse to rent this again so I can actually wear it!

Planned to wear this with a jumpsuit during a girls night outing
Great piece in person. Definitely has just the right amount of sparkle. However, I was unable to wear it as it arrived with one of the stones floating around in the box.

Thought this would be perfect for my Mexican minimoon
Great quality fabric, amazing cut, and the color in person was absolutely GORGEOUS!!! But it was waaaaay too small for me. Such a shame as the tags were still attached and the dress was in brand new condition.

Thought this would be perfect for my Mexican minimoon
Great quality fabric and looks very impressive in person. However, I ordered a size 12 and couldn't get it over my hips, so I'd say this runs very small. It was such a shame too, as it still had the tags attached and was in brand new condition.

Odd piece that drew lots of compliments
This was a bit bigger than I expected. The funky shape of it made it stand out in a sea of boring black clutches at Cipriani's this past weekend. I wore it with a simple black jumpsuit and diamond earrings because I wanted this to be my "statement piece" and that it was! I rented this through the Unlimited program and am gonna hold onto it for a bit longer in hopes of wearing it again.

Pretty dress, just not for me
Ordered the large based on reviews and the dress was still too tight for me. The sleeves were too tight and constricting. Even with a Nubra, the tightness of the top made me look flat chested (I'm a 38DD for reference) from the side and shmoosed together and lewd from the front. The keyhole that should've sat just above my cleavage sat directly over it, no longer giving it that classically modest sexy look. The odd pleating where the top and bottom are stitched together at the front gave the impression I was pregnant due to the puckering. Also, due to the tightness in the back of the dress, it made fat rolls where there weren't any.

Wanted to wear it for Valentine's Day, but it wasn't meant to be
Good quality fabric and modest length (came to my right above my knees - I'm 5' 1"), but it was a bit too big for me to be flattering and the neckline was a bit too low for my comfort so I didn't get to wear it. Based on reviews, I got a 14, but a 12 probably would've worked better.

Wanted to do something different than the typical red for Valentine's Day and this was perfect
I wore this with a little black dress with emerald and gold earrings and black and navy shoes for Valentine's Day and this clutch went PERFECTLY! Even the waitress and a woman at another table complimented me on such an unusual and lovely clutch. I was able to fit my phone (Samsung S5), lipstick, powder compact and kabuki brush, and keys in here comfortably. Would definitely rent it again.

Wore these for 2 parties and received sooo many compliments!
I loved these earrings so much I didn't want to return them! They added just the right amount of sparkle and class. I dressed up for a cocktail party and wore these stunners - never received so much attention to my jewelry as I did that night! I also wore them with jeans, a blouse, blazer and heeled booties to a birthday party at a lounge and they looked equally as fabulous. Can't wait for an excuse to wear them again!

Lots of sparkle
Even with my hair down, these beauties shone through with just enough sparkle to keep it classy but say "hey look at me!" without trying too hard. Would definitely wear them again.

Rented this for my birthday dinner
Measurements provided are accurate and the clutch is perfect sized for all your night out essentials - I was able to fit my Samsung phone, keys, lipstick and compact in this bag without issue and had a bit of room to spare. Planned to wear it with a solid red dress so it would "pop", but ended up wearing an all black outfit with a black and white coat and it went perfectly. Would definitely rent again.

The 14 was too big, but the 12 was too small
The 14 was a bit swimmy on me and the wire forced v in front was a bit too low for me to feel comfortable with wearing. The 12 was too tight around my midsection and bust area, pushing "the girls" in and somehow from the side made me look flat chested. Thicker material and the full length zipper in the back was nice. Also, it's more of a wine than bright red in person.

The built in corset was not my friend...
This would have fit perfectly had it not been for the built in corset, which, probably because of my height (I'm 5'1") cut into my lower stomach area instead of higher up on a taller person, creating an unattractive bulge / fat roll poking out from under where the corset ends. Due to this, I didn't end up wearing this, although it was very pretty in person.

Planned to wear this for my anniversary dinner...
This dress, while lovely in person (and navy, not black like it looks on the website), is not a short girl's friend. I'm 5'1", and it fell far enough below my knees to make me look shorter and a bit stumpy, which made me look heavier than I am. Also, I feel it runs a bit big, as there was quite a bit of extra room in the midsection, which never happens to me, and the sleeves were a bit loose. Probably ideal for someone 5'5" and taller

Great fit - so many compliments!
I wore this dress for a Great Gatsby themed bridal shower and received so many compliments. The dress is a bit stretchy, so I was able to wear a 10 (I fluctuate btwn 10/12 depending on cut). Also, I'm short (not even a full 5' 1") and with 4 inch heels the dress was the perfect length in front. I loved the short tulle train in the back.
