Fabulous fit but need someone to zip it for you
The zipper got stuck over and over again and took someone zipping it up and down for me all day to get in and out. Luckily my sister was willing but definitely not one I would recommend if you’re not with a companion.

Perfect genderqueer vest that added a fashion pop
I love when an outfit feels both feminine and masculine at once and this vest did that. I couldn’t close it because it was too small but it looked great open over some torn jeans and a shirt. I wore it multiple times in the month and it was just the right warmth for late spring.

Fun to wear but still khaki isn’t the most flattering
I loved these pants but had to wear them with long shirts because khaki is not the most flattering on the hips and belly. They were tight at first but stretched out almost immediately to the perfect fit. Comfy and casual and I loved where they hit.

Loved this perfect light and colorful jacket
This was a total win for me and I would have bought it if it wasn’t just out of my range. It was oversized without feeling unflattering or like I’m swimming in it, the design is great, and I got loads of compliments. I spent all month throwing it on as I headed out places.

Fun colors and butter print but tight
These ran smaller than I would have liked and definitely would size up. The print is butter which is cute.

These were fun to wear a couple times but also fit a bit funky on the waist. Still, glad I got them to wear a couple times.

Loved this, cute and comfy
I felt very stylish in this comfy and warm sweater. The sleeves are a statement and I loved the compliments I got wearing it. It does run pretty warm, but that was nice for the cold weather we were having.

Cute but small
I wish it had two buttons or more to be able to really close it up in the wind. It was cute and I got compliments. A little too tight across the waist and chest. I’d size up next time.

Wore this almost every day for two months
The comfiest, most adorable, warmest puffer! It adjusted to the temp well and I could wear it during cold morning walks in San Diego and in the snow. I got loads of compliments and it was so cozy. I’d keep it but we don’t need jackets much of the year here and it was expensive to keep. But definitely will rent again next winter!

I love big earrings but these were very heavy and sat weird
They’re big, which is great, but they’re also really heavy. Mostly I ended up not wearing them because they laid weird on my ear, with the flower pointing up and the boxy part wonky.

Loved this warm sweater
This kept me warm on a rainy winter day and it was super cute too. Love the details on the shoulder. Is almost crop style short, but I wore a shirt under it for warmth so that was fine.

Way too small and buttons pop open
I thought Marina Ronaldi was a plus size clothing company so I could get my usual size 16, but it came way too small to fit. I’d need at least a size up. The buttons pop open easily too, even on the cuffs. It wasn’t as cute as I’d like it to be in person either.

Loved this so much! Bright and fun
Got loads of compliments on this and wish I could have afforded to keep it. It’s a big blouse style so I was a bit worried it would look like a tarp on, but it was well tailored and fit great. Loved the brightness.

Loved them but didn’t get to wear them
These were super cute on and fit perfectly on my size 16, 5’4” frame, but I didn’t get to wear them because there was a rip in the coeditor by the pocket. Still wanted to come here and say they’re great and I’ll rent them again once they’re fixed so I can wear them (and probably buy them to keep).

Super fun jacket that catches people’s eye
I loved this jacket. The fit was great, the style was fun, and I got loads of compliments. It’s lighter weight than I thought but the sequins don’t breathe much, so could be good for spring or fall, not too hot or cold. I wore it inside and it was great.

Perfect for the bougie witch vibes I wanted for my 40th birthday
This dress has a lot of fabric and folds and I see why people worry about that being frumpy, but it was fabulous still showed off my curves. I got tons of compliments and felt like a queen in it. I wore it multiple times and it was comfy yet chic. Felt very high end designer.

Runs very small and won’t fit larger bodies
It makes me so sad that they called this a size 16 when my size 12 friend couldn’t fit in them. And I definitely couldn’t. I see this happen on RTR and it bothers me the way they have the sizing off for plus size. The pants are so cute, I wish they’d have made them in my actual size, or been honest so I didn’t waste a rental spot.

Didn’t end up wearing, too tight and a million buttons to get in and out
This was tight and see through but mostly didn’t wear it because of the hard to get off button, then snaps then zipper. Too much to go through to pee.

Stunning and giving sparkly mermaid vibes
Wore this to a wedding and it was a show stopper. Gave me fabulous mermaid vibes. Rather short but wore with sparkly tights and it was great. Low cut but was able to wear a light nude bra and it hid in the light brown mesh over the cleavage. Right but loved how it hugged my curves.

I thought an XL would fit me and the app said it was my size but this was far from it. More like a medium or for people size 10-12. Couldn't get it on. Bummed because it's cute.

Absolutely stunning on, sexy without being too sexy, so many compliments
This really is the best Little Black Dress. It fit like a glove, and I could go up or down a size and it would still fit. The material didn't wrinkle, which was great since I was traveling with it. It was low cut but not too revealing and hugged my curves in a way that felt sensual without being too sexy. I felt glamorous and like a curvy goddess. I loved it!

Big and cape-like, great for a cozy day and lots of pockets but could be too big for some people
I work events where the temperature is very cold inside, and this was perfect for that. I loved being able to throw this over my blazer at work when it got cold. There were four pockets and that helped a lot to carry my phone, pens, etc. Comfy and big without looking unprofessional. I'm a size 14/16 and it is one size fits all, so if you are smaller it might engulf you.

I had to wear it with really high skirt because it was so short but it looks cute in the end. A bit small so maybe go up a size.

Great work shirt -- it's a bit short on the torso like a crop but great with higher pants
Even cuter in person. I got a lot of compliments. It runs a bit like a crop top, so wear with higher pants. I have a short torso so probably even more of a crop with taller people. But it worked with my high waisted pants.

Comfortable, fancy with a bit of flare
Super comfortable dress but also felt dressed up, not too fancy, not too casual, perfect in between for a night out at a fancy restaurant with friends. Loved the ruffles on it and how they add a little pop. I'm 5'4" and it was almost too long for me in flats, so if you are shorter you might need heels.
