Cozy Winter Vibes
Wore during my second trimester. Styled during the fall with boots and barn jacket. Got a lot of compliments. The ivory color is really lovely. Probably best for tall folks, not petites, since the arms are a bit long and it might hit the leg at a strange place if shorter.

Beachy Vibe
Nothing wrong with this bag, just didn't love it. Took it on vacation to the beach, so it worked out. Buckling and unbuckling takes a little attention. Overall it's functional just didn't feel super luxe or special.

Very Lady Di
Loved the 80s vibe of this bag. Strap is long enough to wear crossbody comfortably, magnetic closure is easy to open, plenty of space, though no real interior compartments other than a card holder. Considered keeping it but it's more of a once in a while bag statement purse.

Great maternity dress
This is a great staple dress for maternity. The fabric elevates the dress a bit and I felt put together with it on. Wore it so much and would consider buying except I don't plan to be pregnant again!

Color is a bit muddy
Love the concept and the lenses were crystal clear and high quality but the brown color was unflattering with my dark blonde hair and fair complexion.

Cute Wash
These jeans fit nicely up to about 24 weeks. I love the wash, and the crop seemed cute to me but then I saw some photos of myself in them and they didn't really work with boots (even though I thought they did).

Classy Casual Bag
The clasp is a bit fussy, magnetic and hook over, but overall a nice size and adds a bit of style to a casual outfit.

Nice for earlier pregnancy
Nice maternity jeans. Bunched a bit in the crotch and a bit too small now that I'm 20 weeks, but measuring big.

Fun Option
Liked the material and color a lot. Very versatile. Kind of boxy and not flattering cut, but that's on purpose. Might have been better sized down. I've been thinking of getting a quilted jacket and this was a good opportunity to try one out. Got a lot of use out of it, but it's more of a "wear it because YOU like it jacket" rather than a "wear it because it magically makes you look super" jacket.

Nice Maternity Option for Long Legs/Heels
Beware short ladies! I'm tall and have long legs and the fabric still dragged on the floor unless I tucked it up under the belt. It worked okay with heels and jewelry to dress it up as a summer night out option. I liked the fabric. It was an okay maternity option at 5 months pregnant.

Cute but Not a Keeper
Got lots of compliments. It's a nice everyday purse with just enough room for a smaller iPhone and wallet. Was just a little too small to be really practical for me. It's very structured and I found the magnetic clasp a bit finicky to open and close. A nice purse but I didn't fall in love.

Amazing Lightweight Summer Dress
Such a comfortable minimalist dress, that effortlessly looks fashionable. I joked with my husband that it vibes "gallery owner." The cut makes it a bit special, while the fabric is so quick drying and lightweight, it's perfect for travel. I learned about this brand via RTR and now I want this dress and everything else they make!

Close to Perfect
Would be a perfect bag with a longer strap - a version APC sells - but this one sits sort of in your armpit. Still I used it a lot and really liked the magnetic clasp. Good size, fits a lot for its size. Wore it with some new all black platform Birkenstocks and felt it pulled together the casual outfit.

Sleeper Hit
I wore these shorts so much. Yes, they're just shorts, but they're a nice longish length, quality feeling fabric, with cute detailing in the tie. One thing to callout is the tie is quite hefty, so if you don't tuck in your tshirt it will be noticeable under your shirt. Not a huge deal to me but maybe to others?

Amazing Fabric and Unique Shape
These pants are fun. They are oversized but don't feel slouchy or too casual due to the cotton fabric, pleats, and cut. For me these pants are the best part of Rent the Runway, when you discover a brand you like, that you wouldn't be exposed to otherwise.

Adorable but Short Strap
This bag is adorable and looks luxe. Just enough space for a phone, small wallet, and a few other items. The only drawback is the shoulder strap is a bit short to be worn as a crossbody bag. If the strap was longer I'd consider buying. Good over one shoulder.

Gorgeous dress but a lot of volume
I love the dress but it overwhelmed my smaller frame with too much fabric. Would be perfect on a curvier/bustier woman. Would be especially flattering on a mama to be! I'd size down if you're an athletic build.

I took the jacket on a trip, it made me feel tough and classy, even at fancy restaurants and hotels.
I love this jacket. The leather is soft and the pockets have fleece inside which feels great on a cold night. I rented a Medium but would probably size up to a large so I could wear a bulkier sweater underneath. The one drawback is that when zipped up the waist was tight on me, it's sort of a triangle silhouette, which is flattering but impractical depending on your weight and outfit. Wearing the jacket out I honestly felt I got better service than I normally would - either this jacket says treat me well or I was acting more confident in it. I was trying it out to see if I'd actually wear a black leather jacket and the answer is YES!

Gorgeous dress, not so great for dancing.
I was excited about wearing this dress as a guest at an afternoon wedding. I used to do ballet and I like that it has some of that ballerina styling. You can see in the photo that I didn't smooth out the tulle under layer. Unfortunately while the dress looked great, and the sizing was right in the bodice, I couldn't raise my arms in the cap sleeves, which is a requirement, since I love to dance!
