Short and boxy
Usually I like short and boxy sweaters, but something about the stiffness of the fabric on this one just didn't work for me. The sleeves were semi baggy which made it look sloppy - overall not the best.
Follow Me Now Sweater
RED Valentino
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Festive but strange fit
I rented this for a virtual work holiday party. While I loved how festive it was, I found the hips and waist to be very large (I am typically a 4-6 and the 4 was baggy in the hips which are my widest part!), but the sleeves to be tight. Not my fave but worked for the occasion!

I wish I could have bought it!
If this wasn't so expensive, I would have bought it! I am a sucker for baggy, cozy garments and this fit the bill without looking frumpy. Even my bf complimented how cute it was! I wore it about 8,000,000 times and am so sad to send it back.

Work from home holiday party fun!
I wore this for our virtual holiday party and got so many compliments! I found the fabric to be a bit clingy even though I would say the dress ran large, so if I rocked it IRL I would probably wear Spanx!
Vertical Stripe Knit Dress
RACHEL ROY COLLECTION
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Fun day to night dress!
I wore this to a work conference then out to drinks. While my feet did not fare well in the day to night transition, the dress was perfect (and even looked cute with my BF's oxfords!).
Short Sleeve Tie Dye Dress
Proenza Schouler

So nice it's now permanently part of my closet!
As soon as this arrived and I put it on, I thought "oh crap...I have to buy this." I have been saving my money and searching for months for the perfect leather jacket, and this is it in all its buttery soft glory. It fits like a dream, is perfectly cropped, and I decided it just had to live its life with me. My first ever RTR purchase, and I think it's the perfect one!
Black Balfern Biker Jacket
AllSaints
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Obsessed is not a strong enough word!
If I could change my permanent address to this jumpsuit, I would live in it! I rented it on a week when it was boiling hot and I wound up being on a jury-meaning I would be required to look professional and sit fir hours while enduring outside temperatures of 90+. This jumpsuit ticked all those boxes and looked darn cute doing it! Bonus points for the pockets!
Navy Elani Jumpsuit
L.K. Bennett
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Versatile jacket for work and play!
I initially rented this jacket for a job interview, but found myself reaching for it again and again while it was in my closet! The sleeve length and color are perfect for a summer outing, and make it easy for your friends to spot you in a crowd!
Kelly Jacket
Robert Rodriguez
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Cute but short!
I didn't expect this necklace to be quite as much of a close fitting collar as it was, so beware what necklines you wear it with (it kept getting caught under my sweater). Otherwise cute and good quality!
Reflection Collar Necklace
Lizzie Fortunato
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Cozy and stylish!
Loved this sweater for a chilly, rainy day to add a little bit of flare to an otherwise basic outfit. It's cozy and not itchy and the perfect shape for a comfy outfit with jeans without looking frumpy. I almost bought it!
Mona Sweater
Cinq à Sept
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Cute crossbody for every day!
I loved the color and size of this bag and the crossbody strap made it perfect for running around on the weekend. I considered buying it and may cave when I rent it again in the future!
Croc Petit Alistair Bag
Clare V.
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4

Big, cozy winter sweater
This sweater was fun and stylish and perfect for rainy winter days in Los Angeles. I'm usually between a small/medium and the medium was definitely VERY oversized, so I would recommend sizing down.
Larissa Cardigan
A.L.C.
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Perfect for a night out!
This top was the perfect fun piece for a friend's engagement dinner. Like other reviews said, it can be short on the front/side, so I styled it with high waisted jeans and a lace bodysuit to stay covered.
Red Ruffle Layer Blouse
3.1 Phillip Lim
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Cool, funky piece for work!
I wore this to a panel on Augmented Reality (read: had to look polished enough for a work event but cool enough to "hang" with the tech bros) and it was a huge hit! I ended up hanging onto it for brunch later in the week. The fit is super fashion forward and unique, and the print is neutral enough that I paired it with leopard print booties and it didn't feel too "crazy." Would definitely buy if it wasn't nearly $1000, but hey, that's what makes renting great!

Size Worn: 42
Usual Size: 4

Super cute (and just a little sassy)!
The translation of this sweater gave me a giggle, but it's the perfect casual piece for every day. I found myself reaching for it multiple times during my rental period, for chilly days, running errands, and lounging around the house. I'm usually between a 4/6 and rented a medium because I like my sweaters big and cozy, and it was the perfect size. Bonus: there are thumb holes for MAX coziness!

Zadig & Voltaire

Amazing piece!
I initially rented this for an over the top drag brunch I was attending, but found myself reaching for it again and again all month. The care would be a little too complicated for me to own it, but that's why renting is so awesome!
Faux Leopard Sleeve Sweatshirt
Harvey Faircloth
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Perfect for a desert road trip!
Athletic shouldered ladies beware: this jacket does run a little small, but with a t-shirt under it was the perfect piece for a weekend road trip to Joshua Tree/Palm Springs. I got a ton of compliments and it was the perfect weight for the 55-70 degree weather!
Aztec Kahlo Coat
Rebecca Minkoff
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Not for short stacks!
I am 5'4" and the dress was way too long to even wear with heels. I tried hem tape but because of the drape of the fabric, it was complicated to get it right. It's a gorgeous dress but just not right for those who err on the shorter side!
Semi Couture Tieback Maxi
byTiMo
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Fun jacket for a casual night out!
I paired this with an LBD for a casual art show about '90s video games. The pixelated look and bomber shape were perfect, I got a ton of compliments all night!
Checkered Bomber Jacket
Tory Sport
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Cute sweater for holiday!
The perfect red for a holiday event, and very cozy. Shorter than the picture made it seem, but sizing up to the medium still gave me a little room for a half tuck.

NYE gorgeousness!
The perfect dress for a Casablanca themed NYE event! I got so many compliments from friends and strangers on the way the dress nipped I'm at the waist and accentuated my curves. The only caution would be the slit-it is VERY high, so I likely wouldn't recommend it for a work event.
Crossover Midi Dress
Christian Siriano
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 4

Office holiday party fun!
Rented this to pair with a RTR Milly sweater dress for a casual outdoor holiday party in LA. I go between a 4/6 and opted for the 6 since the dress was more body conscious, and it was the perfect topper. I got a ton of complements (the coat seemed to attract men like moths to a flame...they kept petting the collar) and I loved how the colors paired with my dress!
Light Denim Bomber
Harvey Faircloth
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Unexpected holiday party look!
I paired this dress with a RTR Harvey Faircloth jacket and flats for my office party (outdoors in LA). It's very body conscious so the addition of the coat made it feel more appropriate for the office setting. I got tons of compliments and felt amazing!

Cruella de Fab!
Used this coat to top an old LBD for a friend's birthday party, and it was just the right touch of over the top chic. It made me feel like the most fabulous Disney villain in the best possible way :)
Urban Jungle Coat
Unreal Fur
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Perfect for LA winter!
I was worried when I moved to LA that I would have to sacrifice my beloved cozy knits, but paired with a short sleeve tee this sweater was the perfect weight for a "brisk" 68 degree December day. I sized up for a more oversized look (later in the day I French tucked it into high waisted jeans) and got so many compliments!
