Fun & professional!
I really loved this top. The fit, the drape, the pattern, the bow - what's not to like?

A fine top for work.
Much more muted in real life than in pics. Very lightweight - a gauzy feel but ok with unseasonably warm temps. I received quite a few compliments. Felt it ran TTS.

Can't go wrong with pockets!
I first tried the 6 which is my usual dress size but exchanged it for an 8 to be more comfortable. I loved wearing this dress - the sleeves were fun & I thought the mock neck was flattering. It was perfect for my event.

Great print, eh fit.
I picked this dress as I can't resist a quirky print! As far as sizing goes I'm a pretty true 6 & I could have sized down to a 4 - the shoulder seams are off & as others have mentioned there's PLENTY of room in the body of the dress! I chose to wear it belted. I could see this working well for someone who is pregnant! It also arrived VERY staticky but a couple of dryer sheets on my tights fixed that issue. Dress feels great on & I love the tie detail.

Just fine.
Fine dress to wear to work. Found it to be TTS. Pretty print but nothing special. Comfortable.

Fine dress for work.
This dress was just fine. Nothing special. It rode up when I walked which was annoying. I think it would have looked better without the cardi but it was too cold to not layer over top of it. If I'd worn this for daye night I think I would have had more fun accessorizing it.

Fun dress to wear to work!
I loved wearing this dress. The tie sleeves didn't bother me nearly as much as they bothered some of the other reviewers. I also rubbed a dryer sheet all over my leggings before I put the dress on so I didn't have any issue with static either. Super-cute, fun print, loved it.
Navy Prism Kaylee Dress

Great top for work!
The only con to this top is the sleeve ties - I didn't want to tie them in bows since I figured they'd come out easily that way. I've had issues getting my eggs for breakfast (I work in a hospital which serves buffet-style) & brushing my teeth. Other than that, I love this print & the silk feels amazing.

Perfect cozy dress for a cold day!
I knew from reading other reviews to size up & I am glad I did as a medium is perfect. I usually don't go for a drop-waist silhouette but I love this one. Something I didn't see mentioned is that the cuffs & the band above the pleating have silver metallic threading so be wary of that if you're not into sparkly.
Houndstooth Pleat Dress

Cute & warm!
I'm glad I read reviews & sized up in this one... even so the sleeves are still an eensy bit short but not enough to be an issue. After two c-sections this isn't the most flattering dress on me from the side even with shaper tights on but it's pretty cute overall so I don't care that much. I found it to be an appropriate length for work with opaque tights.
Manet Sweater Dress

Easy, beautiful dress!
I probably could have sized down to a 4 but the 6 was fine since I had the tie waist to cinch everything in. I opted to wear it alone to let the print really shine - it's a good one! It's definitely more of a fall weight but I wore this on a mild winter day & was comfortable. It is very staticky so have your scotch guard handy!
Soiree Pleated Shirtdress

Usual Size: 6

Way too small!
I sized up to a medium in this dress based on other reviews & it was still way too small. I don't know if the particular dress I received was mis-sized but I'm a pretty standard 6 & it was super-tight & way shorter than I expected. Bummed because otherwise it was a gorgeous dress!

Love the rainbow tweed!
This dress is a little high-waisted for my liking - it would have been really cute with a button-up layered underneath but I didn't have one that "went" with it so I opted for a cardi instead. I feel that it's TTS & I am in love with the rainbow threading throughout. Also - pockets!

Fun dress for Christmas festivities!
My husband told me I looked like "someone on Scooby Doo" when I tried it on for the first time but I'm embracing my inner Daphne & I'm into it. I haven't solved any crimes - yet - but the day is not over. That said - this dress is super-fun to wear. I'm a solid 6 & found it to be true to size - both the top & the dress. I'd definitely rent it again!

Love this "dress"!
I wore this to Christmas Eve brunch & a gift exchange & I plan on wearing it to work tomorrow. I'm 5'7" so it was a little too short to wear as an actual dress but I thought it looked cute with leggings & flats anyway. I walked around all day with my hands in my pockets. It's definitely a heavier-weight fabric as others have mentioned but it was perfect for a 50-degree day - no coat required!

Perfect holiday party dress!
Wore this to my company holiday party. The weight of the dress was perfect for a chilly December evening. I loved the dramatic sleeves & they didn't get in my way throughout the night like I thought they might. Received tons of compliments! It was a perfect fit.

Cute - if I was about 2-3" shorter!
Pros - the silhouette, the colors, the print. Cons - it was so high-waisted on me I didn't end up wearing it. I have an average length torso so I don't know why the fit was so off around my waist but it was. Too bad because otherwise this was a home run! Sad I didn't end up getting to wear it.

"Candy Dot" dress!
Wanted something fun to wear to work & then a work dinner afterwards. I found this to be TTS with the assist of some shaper tights. I do wish the back was vented, as others have mentioned it's a bit tricky getting in & out of the car! Good weight for a December day.

Would have been a great party dress!
There were no reviews yet when I chose this dress so I estimated a small would fit as I'm a pretty standard size 6. I could barely shimmy it over my thighs & my husband attempted to zip me up but the bodice wouldn't even go over my ribcage! This dress runs SMALL which is sad because it's a super-adorable party dress!
Black Laser Cut Dress

Twirly whirly perfection!
This dress is so not "me" but that's the fun part about RtR - you can try out silhouettes that aren't usually your thing. My husband asked me if I was going to cast some spells at work when I put this on... I don't care what he thinks as I love this one! It fits perfectly & fun colored tights were the only option. The v is not too low-cut for work & the sleeves are the exact right length.

Should have read the other reviews!
I love a mixed print garment so I was excited to get this dress. Unfortunately the fit was... off. I'm a 36B & the buttons at the top gaped. The zipper placement on the side made my hips look enormous. Unfortunately it went right back in the bag to be dropped off at UPS tomorrow. Sad trombone.

Cute, especially for Husky lovers!
One of our dogs is a Husky mix so renting this dress was a no-brainer for me. I had to layer a heavier weight cardi on top due to December temps so unfortunately no one can see the cute sleeve detail. I also opted for flats as it's a little too short for my liking even with opaque tights. Otherwise, it's a winner!

Foxy!
I am in love with the fit of this dress, the print, everything. Only cons are the sleeves are a tiny bit too short & the skirt keeps sticking to my tights (static guard to the rescue!) but I'll take those small gripes in exchange for being able to twirl & whirl around work.

Lace + Peter Pan collar = a good time!
Fit is spot on - sleeves are a good length too. I love the little peekaboo of skin paired with the demure collar. Such a fun dress to wear!

Comfortable & chic!
I sized up in this dress based on other reviews & that was the right call. Despite how it looks on the hanger (seriously it was like 10" wide... major side-eye happening in my bedroom) it hangs on the body amazingly! (Full disclosure - wearing shaper tights today!) I'm so comfortable in this dress & I have received a bunch of compliments so far, so I think that's a win!

Perfect dress for Friendsgiving!
I'm a pretty solid 6 & this dress fit me perfectly. As others have described the shoulders / top of the sleeves were a little awkward but nothing that bothered me throughout the evening. I wore this out to a nice dinner & drinks for Friendsgiving & received a ton of compliments! The colors in the dress are really pretty & perfect for late fall.

Perfect for Thanksgiving week at work!
My husband said this was a little "much" for my administrative role in a medical clinic but what does he know? I love this dress; it fits me like a glove. I found it to be true to size & a good length for tights & heels. It's stretchy which makes it comfy, but it still looks structured. The dark plaid is perfect for November!

More of a "tunic" than a dress but I still love this piece!
I love a drawstring waist & this "dress" is no exception. Perfect with fleece leggings & tall boots on this cold November day. I could have sized down but the small doesn't look sloppy. This could be worn throughout the year. I might consider purchasing it to keep!

Perfect dress for birthday dinner!
Wore this out tonight for my husband's birthday dinner / date night. I sized up based on other reviews & I'm glad I did. It was also a little short for my personal taste but was ok with tights & booties. This was a fun dress to wear!

Cute, but not amazing.
Cute dress but as others have described, the pockets stick out so I couldn't wear it under a cardi. Also, this particular dress, the zipper was extremely difficult to get up & down. My 10 yo son told me I looked like I was wearing a "school uniform on a TV show" before we left the house. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing!

Love the print but the fit leaves something to be desired.
I love how this top feels, the print, & the fun tie sleeves. I do feel kinda like a pregnant clown, though, wearing it... but it's one day out of my life so whatevs.
