LBD
Was hoping this would be something more than what it was. Great material to hide my belly's love of pasta. I like that there was extra material on top by the arms to cover any armpit-pudge, but the dress had sewn a band around the waist area that truncated my torso and made me look blocky. The lace detail above the hem was delicate and nice, but wasn't the right dress for the wedding I was wanting to wear it to. Might rent again for another occasion.
Combo Lace Flounce Dress

After trying a bunch of dresses for an upcoming wedding, this one was just right
Started RtR so I could find the perfect dress 4 a wedding abroad. After selecting & returning almost 6 dresses, this was it! It's sophisticated but not plain-Jane boring. The slit made me feel sexy w/o being too revealing. The shoulder & hip detail were interesting w/o being flashy. The best was the material-it was stretchy & comfy that hug things in :) this pic was the initial try on & it doesn't do it justice. Perfect length w/ heels. Returned w/o wearing due to travel ban but will rent again!

The cut is what drew me in, the color is what kept me interested
Material/fabric is super soft, nice quality and maintains its structure. quilted lining gives it weight and warmth, but not overly heavy or bulky. The color is really nice, like a rich caramel. I was worried the color would look bad, but really like it. The cut & design of coat is simple & classic; clean lines w/ an oversized casual feel. Fits great in the arms, shoulders, and length is exactly right on me. Least fave are the 4 red-edged buttons, but that's easily overlooked.
Mustard Coat

Cute dress, but straps were not made for slim chest
My dress size is usually 4-6, and this 4R dress fit well around waist and hips. The length was just right and the high low hem accentuated my shoes/heels. The only con was the strap length. It was about an inch too long and made the top bodice fall loosely on my body. The top had pleated texture which was nice but didn't look nice as loose as it was on me. I returned it after trying it on. Didn't wear it for the wedding.
