Loved!
I rented this for a night at the ballet and it was perfect. Comfortable for sitting for 3 hours, and the arm length kept me from over heating in the always too hot theater. I wanted to wear it again at some point, but the shimmer was too much for me for a daytime look. Will definitely rent again.

Cute top
I rented this to wear under a jacket. The material is really light, so I could feel the slightest chill. That probably makes it ideal for summer, but it was a little chilly on a brisk fall day. Also, I didn't love the design of the lace. It was more cutesy (with big flowers etc) for my taste.

Loved this coat!
I got tons of compliments each time I wore this. It is not particularly warm so it's best for fall days or with heavier layers underneath.

pretty and feminine
I rented this for a friend to wear to her baby shower. She is well into her 3rd tri and this dress made her feel pretty and feminine. She got loads of compliments. Note that the neckline is more of a loose wrap style and comes lower than pictured.

super comfy
Got lots of compliments on this sweater. It is oversized and super comfy. If there is one thing to point out it is that the color contrast is much more noticeable in person, its very slight in the photo, but inside and fold over are much more vibrant and bright then the duller outside.

style true to photos
Not for the busty. I had to wear a tank top underneath and leave the top few buttons open due to pulling.

recommend sizing up, 1 or 2 sizes
This is a form fitting dress, possibly not designed for the curvy. It buttons from top to bottom, so there were some pulling buttons that made it impossible to wear in public. The fabric does had a little stretch.

awkward proportions. Love the color!
I have an hourglass shape and have always been plagued by larger upper arms. This fit nicely over my DD bust, but the arms were narrow and that made the slits particularly prominent. The color is even better than pictured, it doesn't have any bright yellow to it, but is a perfect mustard.

comfortable
I usually wear a 10/12 and got this in the XL thinking it would be comfortable and spacious for a dinner with my in laws. I ended up swimming in it. I would try it again in the L.

Go up at least 2 sizes
I wish there had been a customer review before I rented this dress. It is gorgeous and has a nice heavy material that makes it perfect for cooler weather events. I was so looking forward to wearing it, but that proved impossible. I rented the 10 (the tag actually said 12) and I could not even get the dress up on my shoulders to attempt zipping. I would strongly recommend going up at least 2 sizes (especially if you have large breasts or athletic arms) as this dress runs extremely small.

Completed my bridal look
These earrings are larger than I expected, but that wasn't a bad thing. The length and size really creates a long neck line, especially with hair pulled back. I wore them for my wedding and they were perfect to finish off my modern vintage look. Highly recommended!

Unique style, tons of compliments.
Pros: Unique, versatile, comfortable fit for long wear, good length, pockets! Cons: 1. Make sure you have something handy for static. It is shipped in plastic, and when you get it off the hanger it is very clingy. 2. As others mentioned the material is similar to that of a raincoat, it does not breath. I was borderline comfortable for my indoor/outdoor engagement party in LA. 3. I know I am not the first to mention this, but the bust on this is quite tight. I usually wear an 8 or 10 in dresses and my fiance could not get the 10 zipped once it hit my bust. If you wear anything larger than a 36D this is likely not the dress for you. The 12 fit around the chest but the seams create a moc-bust line that is not flattering on women who overfill it (I barely got away with it).

These were fantastic.
You don't know until you are wearing them, but the bottom half isn't stiff, it twists, giving the earring great movement. Be warned, they are a touch heavy, but not enough to reconsider renting them, my ears were just a little sore after 7 hours of wear.
