RTR Unlimited Review

I joined RTR Unlimited to amp up my work style. This is a gorgeous bracelet. The size and weight are perfect, and the colors coordinate with any outfit. The magnetic clasp is super secure and makes it so easy to put the bracelet on yourself! It's dainty but still eye-catching and I received several compliments on it. I wish I owned it! Definitely recommend renting this for any occasion.

RTR Unlimited Review

I joined RTR Unlimited to amp up my work style. These beautiful statement earrings were so much fun to wear. They stand out, especially if you wear your hair back, but aren't too formal for everyday wear. I got a lot of compliments on them. And they're much lighter than they look. I easily wore them all day.

RTR Unlimited Review

I joined RTR Unlimited to amp up my work style. This necklace is the perfect wear-anywhere accessory. It looks great at work, with jeans for the weekend, or with a nice dress to a more formal event. It makes any outfit a little more edgy without overpowering your look. And it's so lightweight that you might forget you're wearing it! Highly recommend this necklace for any event - rent it a few days early and wear it anywhere! I was sad to send it back.

RTR Unlimited Review

I joined RTR Unlimited to amp up my work style. This bangle was definitely large for me, but I have tiny wrists. I could side my hand right out without opening the hinge. The bracket is also somewhat heavy, but the weight didn't bother me. The bigger problem, as noted by previous reviewers, was that the pavé crystals are only on one half of the bangle - the other half is completely plain. Because the bracelet was so large on me, it would spin around so the non-embellished side faced out. All that said, I still really enjoyed wearing this piece. It's definitely eye-catching and provides a nice pop to an otherwise boring outfit.

RTR Unlimited Review

I joined RTR Unlimited to amp up my work style. These earrings were part of my first order. They are amazingly bright, sparkly, and beautiful! Unfortunately, as other ladies already noted, they are pretty heavy & the clip on fasteners become painful after just a few hours. I eventually took them off when sitting at my desk and put them on again before getting up. I can't recommend these for all-day wear, but definitely rent them for an award ceremony, fancy dinner, or other formal event with a shorter duration.

Adorable daytime dress

This dress is definitely not my usual style, but I kept coming back to it when browsing for something to wear to a wedding, so I rented it as a backup. The dress arrived brand new, with tags still on. At first, I wasn't sure about wearing it. The skirt is definitely very full and poofy, much more so than it appears on the RTR model. But the length was perfect and the style was adorable, so I ended up wearing it to the ceremony and having a great time. I definitely recommend it, even if it's not what you might "normally" wear.

Gorgeous for a wedding!

I was nervous about renting this dress because of the length; most of the previous reviewers have been shorter. I'm so glad I went for it, because the dress was perfect! Great color, super flattering cut, and perfect length. I rented the 2 & 4, and both fit, but the 4 was much looser in the bust. If you are larger on top, definitely size up; smaller girls like me can probably size down. I wore Spanx to smooth everything out, but they aren't necessary - I'm not wearing them in the picture. Sorry for the terrible end-of-the-night, bathroom mirror shot; I was too busy dancing to stop for a photo!

Unflattering Waistline

I ordered this dress as a back up. My primary dress was too small in both sizes, but this dress (in a size 2) was much too large! The waist was huge, droopy, and lumpy - really unflattering. Other review this dress positively, so maybe the elastic in my particular dress was overly stretched? Either way, it was much too big on me. That said, so impressed with the RTR stylists for overnighting me another dress in time for my event.

So beautiful, but impossibly tight in hips

I'm a long-time RTR member, and I've never worn larger than a sz 2 in any rental. However, I couldn't get the inner lining of this dress over my hips in either the sz 0 or 2! I'm not at all curvy or hippy, either. However, a larger size would have definitely been too big up top. The dress is GORGEOUS - my boyfriend and I both loved it - but it was completely unwearable for me. That said, so impressed with the RTR stylists for overnighting me another dress in time for my event.

"Surprise" Value Keeps Decreasing

I've rented the $15 "Stylist Surprise" 3 times. The first time I received a beautiful necklace (regularly $40 rental) that complimented my dress beautifully. The second time I recieved a pair of earrings (regularly $25 rental) that weren't really my style - but that's the risk you take. This last time, I recieved another pair of earrings ($15 to rent - the same cost as the "surprise") that are, again, underwhelming. As I scroll down the reviews on this page, it seems most girls get rather inexpensive earrings as their "surprise"; very few necklaces or bags are reviewed. The photo advertises savings of "up to $200," but it seems the value of the selected accessory continues to go down. Next time, I'll just pick my own $15 rental - at least I'll be able to select something I actually like.

Not My Favorite

I received these earrings as my 'Stylist Surprise.' Statement earrings aren't really my style to begin with, and these were extra big and heavy. The stones seemed pretty dull/discolored, and several were loose. I don't blame RTR - that's just what happens when so many people rent the same item. Ultimately, I wouldn't discourage others from renting these; they just weren't for me.

An awesome 'Stylist Surprise'!

I received this necklace as my $15 "Mystery Bling" for an October wedding. It paired so perfectly with the kate spade Darcie dress that I rented for the ceremony. I didn't want to send it back, and my boyfriend wanted to buy it for me (until we looked up the retail price!) Love, love, love this necklace and strongly encourage anyone to rent it!

Wedding Reception Stand-Out!

This dress was my back-up rental for a wedding. I loved both rentals, but my boyfriend liked the other dress better, so I wore my main rental to the wedding. I changed into this for the evening reception - and we BOTH loved it! It is more flattering on than it looks on the hanger. (Wish I had pictures, but didn't take any - sorry!) The fit was perfect, the fabric feels great, and the bow detail is attention getting without being overwhelming. It might have been too much for the church ceremony, but it was perfect for the evening. I hated to return it!

Vibrant color & a perfect fit!

I rented this dress for an early October wedding. It was perfect! The color is true to the website image and absolutely gorgeous in person. I paired it with nude wedges and a bolero for the church ceremony. RTR also sent me kate spade's Putting on the Ritz necklace for my $15 "Stylist's Surprise," which paired perfectly. I rented sizes 0 and 2, end ended up wearing the 2 (the 0 was just a little too snug around my ribcage).
