Style and comfort!
Fit true to size, form fitting through the thighs/hips/booty. Excellent pattern with stretch. They do stretch in the knees by the end of the day if you're doing a lot of sitting. Higher rise which is fantastic. Compliments throughout the day and considered buying.

So Versatile
So comfortable, nice secure thicker fabric. Gorgeous colors and so many compliments. I even wore this biking all over Block Island on a very hot day with no problem. Super quality piece and would definitely buy if I could. You may need a safety pin at the bust if you want it to be more work appropriate.

Insanely Comfortable
I wore this dress multiple times because it's so great. The side ties with the tassels make the waist adjustable and are so fun to play with. Soft and packable for vacation and also work appropriate in a casual environment. Would definitely buy if I could.

Super Quality Silk Top
Gorgeous flowy silk top with texture. True to size and not too low cut for work. The ties at the neck are a little silly but didn't detract from the piece. Good hot weather shirt. I opted to French-tuck to provide some shape because it is cut forgivingly.

Great colors, quality item
Boxy and somewhat shorter fit but very comfortable. Looked great with a light wash high rise pair of jeans. It's sheer, so a layer underneath is a necessity. The colors are beautiful and it was perfect for a hot summer day.

Nope nope nope
Absolutely terrible around the bust. Lots of gapping between the buttons made it unwearable.

Optical illusion pattern
A thin scuba-like material so it's stiffer than you expect. A bit of a boxy cut but I actually really liked it. Kind of an optical illusion of a pattern though so it's slightly trippy.

Mehhhhh
I thought this was going to be a little sexier and form fitting. Instead I just felt bulky as the material is ribbed and is cut very straight, so it clung to my hips and bagged at my waist. Didn't feel great. Also this is not a sweater-- more of a medium weight long sleeved shirt.

Love! Material! Color! Warmth!
Soft with great color blocks and love the little detail of the cut wrist cuff. Fit well and was warm. Would definitely rent again.

Basic black knit sweater
A good basic black sweater with a nice stitched pattern, but I was a little disappointed in the material as it was synthetic and not super warm for my frigid climate. Overall fit nicely though.

Nice basic grey sweater
I liked the drop shoulders but there was a little puff at the seam between knit styles that ends up falling mid- upper arm which I didn't love. Wore a medium and it felt good. Soft and warm!

Boxy sweater with a little flair
Wore this for a pre-holiday dinner. It's a little boxy but didn't feel stuffy because of the fun animal print. It wasn't itchy and was definitely warm. I wore a medium and could have gone to a small for a more fitted look.

Decent jeans- no stretch
If you're looking for a comfy pair of high rise jeans, these are not it. No elastic in the material, so they fit very snug, but they did stretch just a bit by the end of the day. Just ok. Probably wouldn't rent again. 80s vibe. Also, the zipper was rather sticky and annoying going up and down.

LOVE
Love the subtle leopard print, rise, and button fly. Fit was almost perfect but because there's stretch in these jeans they ended up being big around the booty and waist. I'll definitely rent again, but go down a size.

LOVE!
Love the bodycon fit (bring your Spanx!), and length, the material is thick but stretchy so you feel held in nicely. Excellent colors and pattern, AND you can wear a regular bra with it! I am definitely considering buying this gem. Wore this with a jean jacket over for a wedding rehearsal and dinner. The only downside is that it does ride up just a little if you're doing a lot of sitting/bending/leaning then standing. Just an FYI, there is a slit at the back hem that shows a little thigh.

Great fit, rise, and wash.
Love the high waist and good stretch to these jeans without getting stretched out after a long day. I also love the wash-- more of a distressed dark grey than a black. Gave them a little edge. The only thing I didn't like about the fit was the cuffs (wide at the bottom)-- I just wish they were a true skinny jean instead of a straight cigarette. I ended up wearing them cuffed at the bottom to mediate the issue.

Cute, but wide shoulders
This top was super comfortable and silky. Loved the subtle pattern and v-neck. I am busty and it didn't reveal the girls! I wore it tucked in the front of a pair of high waisted dark jeans. My only qualm is the shoulders-- I already have wider shoulders and the puff at the shoulders made me feel even wider. There are cute buttons at the cuff of the 3/4 sleeve. Nice enough to transition from work to night.

A mix of badass and sweetness.
Worn over a bodycon black dress for a concert. Love the lace and leather combo with the moto cut and got several compliments. I wore it unzipped and glad I did because the zipper is super sticky and annoying and it is made worse by the fact that it catches in the lace-- so be careful! I'm usually a 4-6, wore an 8, which was fine, but I could have easily worn a 6. Beyond the zipper issue, the lapels are a little annoying because they don't lay well when unzipped, but I still liked the jacket and would rent again!

Love the pattern, jacquard material, and colors.
Definitely fits small as other reviewers have noted-- I'm usually between a 4 and 6; wore a 6 and could have worn an 8 easily. There were some loose threads in the sleeves on arrival, but nothing terrible. It's a bulkier jacket, so not exactly slimming, but I still really enjoyed the piece. I wore it over a navy jumpsuit and it worked well for an early fall wedding.

Sexy without revealing!
This is a true bodycon dress and it was perfect under a jacket for a concert night. Snug fit with a little stretch, I was even able to wear a regular bra even with the cutout at the shoulder. Compliments, comfort, and great length-- I would definitely rent again!

Great length, cut, and print
As previous reviewers noted the buttons down the dress are a frequent problem, but I came prepared with safety pins and had three down the top buttons. It is a slightly deeper v-neck than I'm usually used to but it never felt truly revealing. I didn't find the metallic thread through the fabric all that itchy as previous wearers had noted, even wearing it through the final day of a very hot and humid vacation and then through the airport and onto 2 planes. Overall great dress and I would have considered buying, just wish the buttons weren't such a pain. Lots of compliments, breezy, light, and comfortable!
