Rented for the second year, decided to buy!
I love this coat, it's a great addition to a blah work outfit in the Fall. I have a few merlot-colored sweaters and wore this coat with one of those sweaters and black or navy pants for weekends or casual days in the office. Warm enough for when temps start to drop and in any situation you would wear, say, a wool trench.

Should have sized up for pockets
I usually find Tory Burch runs very large, but I should have listened to reviewers and sized up. The pockets definitely stick out right at the hips in an unflattering way. I could have made it work, but didnt want to feel like I had to tug at it to make the pockets lay flat all day.

Runs small!
Cuter than I expected, does not look cheap. However, I'm usually a 2-maybe a 4 if something runs small- and the Small was way too small. As in couldnt even begin to zip over my butt. Might reorder, but would consider going as far as to order a Large based off of how small the Small was.

Unexpectedly perfect vacation dress
I threw this in my cart as an after thought to get a full order, and it ended up being my favourite dress on my vacation! It does fit large, but it has a drawstring waist so the fit can be customized a bit. It was perfect to throw on to run around town etc. The flowiness had a fun vacation feel. My husband actually liked it and suggested I wear it to dinner one night!

Loved the hidden closure!
The hidden closure was amazing and kept me from feeling like I had to constantly check that the top was in place. Beautiful color, great for work or weekend!

It was fine
It was.. fine. I wore it, but it fit large and the color was much less pink than the photo suggested. It definitely felt like the color of a band aid

Fun colors and pattern
Very large for the size. I had to belt it to look somewhat acceptable, and it was also very long! However, the colors and pattern were fun for the weekend!

Great pattern
Great pattern, but MUCH heavier material than I expected for a summer print. The straps were a bit long.

Great colors and adjustable straps!
The fit was great for accommodating my pear-shaped hips without being a very "fit and flare" cut. The length was great as well without being too long to wear flats. Wore it for a weekend in the city with my kids. Tiny straps meant no bra, but I'm small-chested and the fabric is thick enough that it wasn't an issue

Chest is HUGE
The chest of this dress was HUGE! I couldn't find any way to make it work to wear it. It just gaped open all the way down to where the dress tied around my waist. Like other reviewers mentioned, the print is much different in-person than in the photo. I really wanted to like this, but it just didn't work out.

Loved the back detail!
I was scared this would make me look like I had a weird cape on, but decided to give it a go. I really liked it! I thought the pleating in the back added some fun interest to a casual outfit. It didn't stick out or lay oddly.

LOVED this color!
This clutch is definitely very flat, but I could easily fit my phone and cards and lipstick in it. The color was amazing and matched the dress I rented perfectly. I really like the way you twist the hardware to close it.

Definitely runs large
I wore with heels and it was still too long, my heels kept getting caught on the dress! The cut is... fine. It didn't do me any favors. The dress ran large so it made me look larger than I am. However, I am pear-shaped and the dress did fit my hips, even at a 0. I really liked the colors, and I wore it to aconference where I knew the room would be cold and I wanted my legs to be warm, so it served its purpose!

Loved this dress!
I am definitely pear-shaped, so despite my height/weight ratio I really should have gotten a zero. Size this dress based on your "up top" size. Wonderful fit. I loved the length- short enough to be flirty but not so short I felt like I was dressing younger than my age. The colors were great as well.

Ordered in 2 sizes- kept the other pair!!
Love these. I ordered in two sizes and kept a pair! They were soft, stretchy but didn't stretch out throughout the day. I went up a size or two. I'm 5'4" and I'd say they're a bit longer than ankle-length.

Great color!
Rented this to match a top I rented, and it did the trick! I love the black and white striped lining as well.

Great colors!
Loved the colors! Like many rental items, the white is not a pure white so I would not pair with white jeans. I paired with black and it was great! Odd shape, made me feel like I was trying to hide a pregnancy.
