Beautiful, just not on me
Gorgeous colors and pattern! I always love a good sheath dress for work, but this one made me feel like a stuffed sausage. Even if I went up a size, the dress still felt a little too casual at my law office meeting clients (and we have a pretty lax dress code--I'm the boss). Consider going up a size if you are in doubt or in between sizes.

Versatile
I rented this jacket before any reviews went up, and I still have it in my closet months later. It's the first piece I have considered purchasing from RTR--soooo many compliments! I usually wear it with yoga leggings and have also tried it with jeans, slacks, skirts and dresses. It looks great with everything. My boyfriend is obsessed with this jacket and insists that I purchase it. Only thing, RTR sent me a brand new jacket with tags still attached (yay!), but it felt super tight in my shoulders. I would recommend one size up, as the other reviewers have suggested. And get ready to make the not-so-difficult decision of actually owning this luxurious item!

A stunning surprise!
I rented this dress as a back up to a hot pink Herve Leger dress that I was SURE I was going to wear to a wedding. Once I tried on this Nicholas dress, however, my plans changed. When my date saw me in this stunner, he was literally speechless. I paired it with a pair of Louboutin stilettos and simple diamond drop earrings and bracelet. I received compliments all night for the dress and for looking "statuesque." The material is stretchy, so it's forgiving when you eat that extra slice of wedding cake. Here are a couple of things I would do differently if I rented this dress again: I am a size 2 and 5'8" and ordered the 2L. I would have gone up to a size 4 and kept the regular length. The zipper in the back was hard to pull, so thankfully I had someone to help me. The red really pops, and the dress fits in all the right places, so be ready for all eyes on you.

The Perfect Vacation Dress
When I traveled to Costa Rica this summer, I needed a dress to impress. After a couple of days in the sun, I tried on this silky number and felt like a sun-kissed goddess. This is the first dress from my RTR experience that I actually wanted to purchase to own--and I've had quite a few stunning rentals. Great fabric and stunning print.

First Date = Marriage Proposal
I can't praise this dress enough! Beautiful, outstanding color. I walked into an upscale restaurant in Houston and felt all eyes on me. If you're a little chesty, this dress flatters the décolletage, and the fabric is stretchy and forgiving if you eat too much. I wore it for a first date and pretty much got a marriage proposal. My cousin later rented it and had the same dazzling effect. Get this dress. Get noticed.

Like Audrey Hepburn!
Beautiful color! I wore this to a close friend's wedding and received compliments all day from men, women, children, and family... The fit runs small, and I had to have two people zip me up. It was a little hard to breathe in but worth it. It's a piece of art!

Turn heads in this sizzling little number!
This is such a beautiful dress--the photo does it absolutely no justice! I wore this sequin piece for a wedding, and I got compliments on it all night and all over my social media once I posted the pic. It's a stunner! It fits small, and it is a little short, so be careful on the dance floor.
