Not as short as pictured
I think these pants would be cropped, based on the model in the photo, but they were INCREDIBLY long. I used a little fashion tape and and iron to "hem" them and all was good, but it didn't give me the look I was going for. The buttons on the hips were cute and the color blue was vibrant.

Effortless
The slouchy sleeves of the sweater made it stand out. I also liked that you could tuck it in a bit, as it was a thin wool material. Very cozy. My only complaint would be that because the facric was on the stretchy/ thin side that the shoulders easily developed hanger marks. Beautiful color gray.

Cozy without the bulk
This was a fun Saturday sweater. It had the sherpa lining in the hood and pockets, but the entire item wasn't lined, so it didn't create unnecessary bulk.

Perfect black sweater
I wore a few times while I had it at home. Dressed both up or down, it worked well for all occasions. Material was very comfortable and the balloon sleeves gave it a bit of flair.

Amazing with a little effort
I was onsessed with these pants and waited a bit before they became available. I was worried that they would be long, and they were, but with a little fashion tape and an iron, I temporarily hemmed them- the side ribbon, as well. I received SO many compliments that night. Even though it took a bit of effort, my look appeared effortlessly stylish. LOVED!

Details, details!
I love everything about this shirt- the pattern, material, and most importantly, the sleeve! My only comments would be that the back seems to be a bit tight, so if this is an issue for you, you might want to size up. Also, its not the best shirt for dinner, as its hard not to dip the wrist ties in your meal.

Tons of compliments!
These pants were stylist, the fit was fabulous, and I received a ton of compliments- not just in person, but in a photo I posted on social media. I wore these many times. A camo pant that is really well done!

Muppet chic?
Not sure if it was over-cleaned, it was the color, or the fabric of the coat, but I felt like a muppet wearing it. I wore it for a few days on a trip, but didn't receive any compliments. Won't rent this one again.

Wanted to love this
I loved the contrast of colors used, but when I put it on the proportions seemed a bit off. The sleeves were way too long compared to the waist. I tried rolling the sleeves up to show the red pattern on the inside, but again, just way too long. I also had a hard time pairing it with pants in an unique way.

Color was everything
This ia beautiful sweater with interesting details, but the show stopper is definitely the color! I loved the sleeves, but it did make it tricky to wear a coat over it. And finding that everything seems to be cropped these days (which doesn't work for my 40 yr old self) I thought this length was perfect. I felt like it allowed me to rock the trend, but in an age-appropriate way. I wore this one many times before sending back!

Fun pattern on an otherwise meh sweater
I really liked the pattern on this sweater, but like another review mentioned, it appreared that the starbursts were being warped from drycleaning. The snaps at the neckline definitely added a little casual fun, but something about the material and the cream color made the sweater feel a bit matronly.

Cozy weekend wear
I wore this once and liked it, but returned it before a second wear. I'd suggest sizing down, but even when I did the hood and neck line was a bit oversized. Fun with stretch pants and sneakers, it was a fun pattern and comfortable material. You couldn't fit it under a jacket though, so make sure you won't need one.

Great print & length
I loved this skirt. can be dressed down for a Saturday BBQ or up for work and a date night. The print was great. I did find that it ran a little small in the waist. I'm usually a medium and would order a large next time. I could tell other women had the same issues, as the buttons at the waist were worn and popping. Order up a size!

I didn't understand the cut outs
I loved the print and the length, both in the front and the back, but I didn't wear it because I couldn't figure out the cut out placements under the arms- right where my bra was. The only solution would have been to go braless.

Fun print and cool mesh detail
I really liked this dress for the bright print and modern black mesh cut out. The straps are adjustable, so I made sure I wasn't showing too much of the girls. It was very conservative, almost too much so, as my husband felt it was shapeless. I definitely would have rocked a skinny black belt like other renters, had I had one. I still loved this dress and embraced its moo moo qualities.

Sophisticated party dress
I loved this dress. The fabric and print was beautiful and I loved that it was lined. I was expecting a 4R to be a bit small, but it fit perfectly. Wore it to a pool side evening party and received many rave reviews. I can see why some commented on the odd length, but I loved it. The chest and arm peek-a-boo cut outs were just enough to add some allure, without feeling too sexy.

Great black dress that can be dressed up or down.
I rented this to wear everyday and did wear it a few times before returning it. The drawstring, over sized pockets, and cap sleeve were very flattering. I do felt it was a tiny bit big, so would suggest sizing down. Without a black bra/ tank, the arm holes would show a bit too much for my liking.

A step up from every day casual
Loved this easy to wear cotton dress! True to size, this comfortable draw string dress received a lot of compliments at an afternoon BBQ. It was slightly short, but the coverage on the arm made it work. Fun, but understated print. I highly recommend.

Pretty on the model, unrealistic on me.
This was a beautiful romper with a fun pattern made of high quality material. It was sexy without giving away too much, but the black band across the stomach was placed just high enough to make me look pregnant. Sadly, I returned it without wearing.

Hard to wear.
I loved the print and quality of this piece, but found it too hard to wear. The v neck is deep, so I needed a tank under to cover my chest, but the peep hole at the lower back looked silly with a tank. If you weren't concerned about much moving or bending over and had fashion tape, this might work for you, but it didn't work for this moving mom on vacation with kids.

Takes your everyday up a notch.
This shirt was fun & funky, without being over the top for everyday. Weather was still a bit cool, so I wore it over a long sleeved white cotton shirt, put up my hair, and popped the collar- perfection! Material was beautiful, too. I'll rent this again.

Fun fit and pretty pattern make this a winner
This was so easy to wear. The pattern was memorable and vibrant and fit was amazing. The arms were flared without showing any bra. Snaps kept the front shut without any peeking. Everyone loved it from the front, then freaked out when they saw it from the back. The layered flare at the bottom was beyond flattering. Would love to keep this one in my collection!

Effortlessly chic
This was a great blazer. I rented it for an afternoon holiday luncheon- perfect! The pattern was fun, but not too wild. It fit like a glove and the longer length made it feel chic. It did fall on the edge of matronly. but maybe it was the way I styled it (I'm 36.) Lot of compliments. I'll rent again!

OBSESSED!
I'm considering buying this piece. I wore it traveling (heads up, it does wrinkle) and my husband said all eyes were on my shirt in the airports (not me, the shirt!) The silk is gorgeous and the pastel purple is beautiful. It is so comfortable and easy to wear. The tie in the back can be adjusted to compliment any type of body. I don't love my mid section, so I tied it a bit loose for some flow. OBSESSED!

Got a lot of everyday wear out of this sweater
I definitely got my money's worth with this one! As other state, it is more of a sweatshirt (upscale sweatshirt if you will) than a sweater. That's probably the reason I wore it so much- it was so comfortable, but I still felt put together. Next time I rent it, I'll size down, as it was a bit boxy and the shorter arms made me look like I was a TRex. You'll like this for a casual everyday piece.

A step up from the everyday cable knit turtleneck.
I loved this look and couldn't wait to wear it. It was heavy, but not overwhelmingly so and it looked expensive. I love anything with pockets and this was so exception, although I couldn't wear it for more than 10 minutes, as the neck seemed to be tighter than expected. I'll probably give it a try next winter if its still available.

Unusual sweater to give a kick to everyday
This was a fun sweater to wear! The front was very flattering and hung nice around my mid section. The length and weight were perfect and the color really popped. The quality was nice and the item was not pilled. I got a lot of compliments from the front, but when friends saw the back, the compliments kept coming. I'll rent again for sure.

Great FALL sweater
This was a well-made and comfortable sweater, but I rented it for everyday wear in New England and unfortunately it was so bulky I couldn't wear it under my winter jacket. This would be great if you could wear it AS a jacket throughout the day or instead of a jacket. Cool design and SO comfortable.

High quality with fun pattern
I loved wearing this dress. It was so easy! The print was faded, but I think that was the intention. It flowed beautifully and was light weight even though the fabric was on the thicker side. I was worried that it would be short because of the model photo, but it hit just above my knee at 5'6". I paired with a black blazer (to hide the gaping arm hole with showed my bra) and got compliments all night. I will definitely rent again!

Strange seams created unattractive look
I rarely say it, but this dress was a miss. I rented it for a warm night in FL and the fabric definitely didn't breathe. There was also a strange seam running right horizontal several inches below the bellybutton which cut me in half- no at all flattering. The print was pretty, but I couldn't get over how unflattering it was. Might be great for a petite woman with a very flat stomach, but not me.

Beautifully draped dress with fun pattern
I had fun wearing this dress. I wore it to a beach party and loved how the skirt blew in the wind all evening. The pattern was a lot of fun without being too wild. There were extra panels of fabric along the hips, but I don't think it added any unwanted volume. The straps on the dress are adjustable and they needed to be adjusted to the maximum, which brought the seam up the cup (which was hard to notice) up past the bottom of my bust. If it was left as suggested, my bra would have been totally exposed. Will rent again!

Finally, an age appropriate romper
I rented this romper for an event in South Beach. Not only did I receive a lot of compliments, I felt great in it! The leather panels gave it an edgy vibe and the long sleeves balanced the short short length. My mom of two mid section was well hid without having to suck in all night. I could have worn it for days! Will definitely be renting this again soon.
