The best kind of blues...
Really liked this top, super comfortable. The color is awesome. The slits on the side of the shirt go up pretty high so couldn't lift my arm up too high without showing skin, just something to note. Unlike other button down styles, i didn't feel like the gaps between the buttons around the bust were gapping open. The boxy oversized style is very forgiving of a curvy midsection. Such an easy top to feel cool in.

Cheers to sheer
This was such a fun top! I wore it to a Friendsgiving dinner. Even in an XXL it was very form fitting so just be aware. The sleeves were also a little long on me. Otherwise, I really liked it.

Great pattern, odd neckline
I forgot to get a pic of the 'fit I styled for this top. I liked it but I did notice (as others have pointed out) the neckline kept flipping the wrong way so I had to keep checking and fixing it all day. I also had to layer a tank under it for work since it's sheer enough to be seen through. Great pattern, pretty material.

I liked these but not on my body shape
I really took a chance that these would fit AND look good on me but… I really just didn’t like them on me. I have a lot of hip so the cargo pockets just added bulk in that area where I don’t need more attention drawn. The fit through the hip and butt was tight for me. The fathered waist also made them look very high waisted. And the material is not very forgiving of undergarments seams and natural body bumpies, lumpies and curves. I feel like these would probably work better for someone taller and slimmer through the hip. Ultimately, I didn’t end up wearing them.

This cardigan instantly elevated and otherwise standard all black outfit. The pearl/gold buttons are such a classy accent. Very warm. I did notice that the buttons didn't like to stay closed so I did have to keep re-buttoning them through the day.

These crystal bows made for a perfect accent and finishing touch on any outfit. The bonus for me was that the diamond stud I have in my second lobe piercing actually fit perfectly inside the bow loop and made the earrings even more unique 🤩

Spring has sprung 🌻
The perfect springtime blazer. Got so many compliments. I probably could’ve sized up for a little more of an oversized look. Only thing I didn’t love was the lining on the inside kind of bunched up around the pockets and made the outside of the blazer look bumpy.

Red delicious
This sweater. Where do I even begin? Ok look. I was super skeptical at first when I was deciding whether or not to rent this because of all the reviews talking about how ridiculously oversized the sleeves. They weren’t wrong. The sleeves are so comically long, there’s not a human arm on this planet that this was designed realistically for. Ok? Ok. BUT the nice thing is, they can be rolled up and will stay put once rolled so let’s move on. The X’s along the sleeves are such a cute accent. The mock neck is perfect, not too much bulk with excess fabric. And color is vibrant! So cozy and warm and brightened up a gloomy day. I probably could’ve sized down for a more snug fit but the oversized was cute and comfy. Got compliments on it and it was easy to style; as you can see, I kept it very basic with jeans and white sneakers - she’s adorable, what more could you ask for?

A sweater that breathes
I loved this sweater vest and wore it on a day when the weather was going to be both cold and warm (a classic Texas spring day). It kept my core warm but the sleeveless style still allowed me to stay cool enough as the day warmed up. The ties at the sides allow for the “one size fits all” and are a unique accent. Super cute piece to layer with and looked fantastic with a neutral trench coat. The turtle neck part was a little itchy so beware.

Your favorite sweaters favorite sweater
This color is everything! I wore this piece several times and was able to dress it up for work and dress down with jeans and even yoga leggings. Can be itchy if you’re sensitive to that sort of thing. I like to wear my sweater sleeves ruched up 3/4 but I noticed there was a little too much give in the sleeve cuffs so they wouldn’t stay put in that position for very long— not a deal breaker, but just something to note. I probably could’ve sized down one but I wanted a more oversized fit. I also liked where the hem hit on my waist, it was easy to cuff under for a more cropped or tucked look. Will definitely be renting again.

Fun and flowy
I loved how much fabric made up the skirt of this dress. It made it feel so much more elegant than I imagined it would. Since I rented it in the winter time, I paired with western style tall boots and a leather jacket. Beware, if you’re conscientious of your mid section (like I am), this dress definitely will hide anything but I noticed in photos it kind of made me look pregnant if I stood a certain way - not necessarily a deal breaker for me but thought I would mention it. Would recommend and rent again.

I threw this on over everything!
Such a fabulous wardrobe staple - I wore it so much over everything. It's a great neutral denim and can be dressed up or dressed down. And it's heavy denim, not thin. So it actually provides some warmth for cooler weather. I will rent again and might even size down next time for a more fitted style.

Stunning color and style
This dress was a show stopper, no doubt. The fit was kind of interesting though. The top was so drapey and loose, I had to safety pin and fashion tape myself in to prevent anything being exposed. But the sleeves were also somehow very constricting, like I couldn’t lift my arms up at all without the sleeves rolling up over my shoulders. And the slit on the skirt was very high, I constantly was having to keep it closed while sitting. I personally wouldn’t rent again for a function but could see it working for a photoshoot or an event where you’ll be standing a lot.

I love it when you can dress up or dress down so easily. Dress was comfy but slightly form fitting so I threw a shirt on over it to make it a little more modest for the office.

Size up if you’re curvy!
I didn’t get a chance to wear this because it was entirely too small in the chest. It was perfect on my waist, hips and butt. I probably needed two sizes bigger to fit my upper half, but then of course it would’ve been very big on my bottom half. Frustrating. Color and print were great though. Loved the silhouette.

Fun colors
I really liked the colors and pattern of this dress. And I knew the silhouette was going to be flowy but I should’ve sized down one because I think it was a little too baggy on me. The straps were too big, even adjusted to the smallest setting. The front kept pulling down too much to where I had to keep adjusting it to show less cleavage. Overall it was fun to wear but would’ve been better in one size smaller.

Very cute but small
The craftsmanship of this bag was undeniable and I got lots of compliments on it. I figured this would be a tiny bag that I wouldn’t be able to fit much in but I underestimated how small. My phone wouldn’t even fit it which was annoying if I wasn’t also wearing pockets. Understand that this bag wears more like a clutch and don’t expect to be able to fit a lot of stuff in it and you’ll be fine! It’s a beautiful handbag, just wish I could’ve utilized it better.

Gorgeous color
I absolutely loved this skirt. I ended up wearing it several times. The silhouette was super flattering for my mommy tummy, hips and butt. I loved the flowiness. The color was perfect for the summer season. It’s a wrap skirt so it lent room for those with more curves in their bottom half, like me. Only thing I didn’t like about the material was that it wrinkles VERY easily. It was super easy to steam out but if you’re in a rush and don’t want to hassle with ironing or steaming, that might be a little inconvenient.

Make a statement
This blazer was absolutely gorgeous!! I normally don’t wear patterns this bold but I’m so glad I chose to this time because it made such a beautiful statement and made me feel so confident. It runs small in my opinion so I’d size up if you want it to close in front. It was lightweight enough for warmer weather.

The half cape is to die for
I absolutely loved this dress and wished it would’ve been available in a bigger size. I got a 16 but it fit more like a big 12/small 14 in my opinion; I was really having to suck it in all night and I couldn’t bend down or raise my arms past a certain point. The leg slit is cut very high too so be aware of that. The cape is gorgeous and the statement of the entire look. Despite the small sizing, it really is a beautiful garment. If it’s ever available in bigger sizes, I’d surely rent again.

More lilac than pink
I needed a pink blazer for a work function and while this piece was certainly professional, I wouldn’t necessarily call it pink; it was more of a lilac shade in my opinion. The ruched sleeves were a great detail although in order to hold them up, I did have to use a clever hair tie hack. The buttons are faux wood and the material looks like linen which made this garment great for Spring or Summer wear. I could’ve used slightly more give in the arms but it wasn’t a deal breaker; maybe size up if you’d like a roomier fit.

Was just ok
I needed a yellow dress for a networking event and this was one of the few that was available for the dates I needed. It wasn’t my first or second choice but I went with it. It has a boxy shape but was comfy and very forgiving of a curvy tummy; I probably could’ve sized down one. I like the lacey detail on the neckline and the bell sleeves made this dress a little unique. Although I wouldn’t necessarily rent it again, it got the job done for me.

Vegas circus night
I really liked this dress and it was fun to wear. I wore it for a night out at a Vegas circus and it was perfect for the occasion. I don’t usually wear off-the-shoulder styles so I wasn’t sure if the sleeves were supposed to feel as tight as they did but I noticed that I had to keep adjusting them throughout the night because they kept digging into my armpits. The dress also doesn’t give you much of a shape but the abstract pattern makes it pretty forgiving for midsection bumps. It was also pretty lightweight for the warm weather.

Perfect for spring/summer!
I loved this dress so much! It’s a true wrap dress so the skirt part did tend to fly up in a breeze (be aware when sitting or walking). There was plenty of tie available at the waist which I appreciated. But I have a fuller bust so I did wish I would’ve had a little more fabric for room to breathe on top— it was snug and pulled open so I had to use a safety pin to keep the cleavage part closed up for modesty. Loved the vertical stipe pattern, it made me look taller and slimmer 🤩 paired it with a cute sandal wedge and gold jewelry. If there was one more size larger, would definitely rent again but probably won’t with the current size selection as is. It was a great fit on bottom, just not on top IMO.

Gorgeous yellow color
I had mixed feelings about this top. On one hand, the color is stunning and perfect for Spring/Summer. I love the oversized flowy style. But it’s cut very low on the bust (I had to safety pin it to make it more modest). And the tie at the waist is also cut very high. If you don’t want to show stomach while wearing it, I’d suggest wearing high waisted pants or a cami underneath. The sleeves were a little long on me but I pulled them up onto my forearm for a peasant sleeve look.

Hourglass figures rejoice!
This dress was absolutely stunning and hugged all my curves in the just the places. I loved the wrap style. The bust gave enough coverage that I didn’t feel like I was constantly having to double check myself for too much exposure but I could’ve easily folded the fabric back if I did want a little more cleavage showing. If the option was available, I probably could’ve stood to go up a size but the fit was fine as is for a hugged style. Loved the dashes of blue in it. It’s a stretchy material so shape wear was a must for me.

These earrings are even more beautiful in person. I don’t usually gravitate towards turquoise colored jewelry but this jewelry is far from your garden variety “turquoise”. I loved the dash of orangey yellow color in there. They’re good quality but no overly heavy so I was able to wear them for a long time without feeling any pain or discomfort. 100% recommend if you want something a little different but beautiful!

Cute but…
It has a waistband that has no stretch at all. I couldn’t even get the zipper on the side to go up all the way. It runs very small IMO. And the skirt is short, but I have short legs so it would’ve worked for me otherwise. There is also a snap closure on the chest but I couldn’t get that to close up either. This piece just runs smaller so size up if you’re curvier. Didn’t end up wearing.

Absolutely LOVED this jacket and how versatile you can make it. I wore it with a cocktail dress one night and then with skinny black jeans and boots another night. Total rockstar / “bad Sandy” from Grease vibes. Felt so sophisticated yet gave me an edge to my look that I really enjoyed. Sleeves were a little long for me but that’s not unusual for my proportions. I just tucked them inside. Also was not able to zip it up in front but I wouldn’t have anyway. Just noteworthy if you have a curvy midsection that this style isn’t forgiving of that if you want to zip it up.
