Dressed it up, dressed it down, wore it all around!!
I didn't wear it everyday of my month rental, but just about! It was the perfect jacket to usher in the Fall weather. The color is great to go from day to night, and the fit is comfortable enough to wear it and still have full arm movement. And of course the fringe gives a little extra drama to your step, was stopped on the streets for complements.

I feel pretty, oh so pretty!!
Beautiful and feminine but with out feeling too young. Sometimes pink and ruffly can read juvenile, but the design and fit of this dress made me feel elegant and flirty!! My only regret is wearing this to an event that was only an hour long, will rent again for a longer wear.

Beautiful color and fabric, weird fit at armscye
Wore this to the symphony, loved the fit in the bust and the overall design. Did not like the armscye as it cut in at an awkward spot and the ruffles only did so much to hide it. Might have needed to go up a size? But it fit great everywhere else so I'm not sure that would fix it.

Flattering and comfortable
I wore this to a formal dinner for my husbands work and it was perfect! Lots of complements and very comfortable to sit in for a long time. With the dress being a little loose in the mid section and of course being black, I didn't even have to wear my spanx! The high collar did turn up in the back a little wierd, but it might be because there was one button missing at the bottom.

Beautiful blue, soft fabric and unique neckline.
Loved this shirt! I have a hard time with button downs because of my chest size but with this being a placket front it worked pretty well. I still got a little gaping, but then opened the top two buttons and it was fine. Color was beautiful, would rent again!

Cute pants, not really my style.
I took a chance on something out of my comfort zone, and it worked fine but I just didn't feel myself in them. They are great pants, and if statement pants are your thing then I think you would love them. Glad I tried something new, but I'll stick to my basic pants and print it up on my tops and dresses.

Color and print are amazing! Fabric tends to grow as you wear it.
Wore this dress to my cousins wedding which a booze cruise in SF bay. Loved the length because I could get away with wearing flats on the boat. Lots of compliments and overall very comfortable, but the fabric grows over the coarse of wearing it so I had to pin the shoulder seams to my bra straps.

Comfy, travels well and cute!
Very faltering, sits well off the shoulders, slit is a little higher then I expected but didn't feel uncomfortable. I wore this for my Anniversary date with my husband! I packed it up in my work bag that morning because I wanted him to think I was just going to come in my work cloths. When I pulled it out to hang up not a wrinkle! I love a dress that isn't too fussy.

Perfect fashion top, comfort and classy
I loved it and got so many good uses out of it. With a larger bust it is important to have a good strapless because the square cut shows normal strapped bras.

So cute, and fun pocket detail, did have to go up 3 sizes
First time renting pants, which I knew would be taking a chance. First I ordered 2 sizes bigger like other comments suggested, but ended up have to return it for yet another size up. Hurt ego aside, they were really cute and faltering. Love the pocket detail so much I went with either a crop top or tucked in so it was on full display!

Cute style, not great for larger bust sizes
When I tried it on first thing at its arrival I was blinded to the fit because the color and style are definitely me. Then, when I put it on for my event I found that with this dress, as with most Free People clothing, it doesn't size up well for larger bust sizes. Even with an un padded bra it swooshed them a bit, I don't think a size larger would have helped much, it was the shape of the bust seams that are the problem. I also noticed, to late, that there was old hand alteration in it that might have caused some fit problems, I took it out and will double check my items from now on.

Simple dark pants, with a little extra flair. Paired well with lots of items in my own closet.
I wore these for work and a handful of nice diners, worked well with items I already owned. Defiantly the item I used most in my last shipment. The pocket detail gave it a nice flair just beyond the norm, but still basic enough to work for a few different events. I felt the length was a little odd for me, it could have been and 1" higher or shorter to work better with different style of shoes, but a little extra time trying on different pairs and I found the ones that worked.

Loved this dress!!! Color, Cut, Fabric, and the way the flair moved as I walked.
I wore this to a diner/show fundraiser event, and I may have been a little over dressed, but looked good doing it. The lace is nice and structured so it hid well the lumps and bumps I sometime over fixate on. At the same time the lining has a little give so it isn't too restricting. I have pretty flat hips, and this dress gave me a curved look I really get out of my clothing, so the only thing I would suggest is if your looking to minimize your hips, this isn't the dress for you.

The colors of this dress are some of my favorite combinations, got a lot of complements!
The design and fabric design are great on this dress, very flattering. The fabric is pretty light and I did need a solid foundation underneath to get the look I desired. Also had to tack back the hanger loops with safety pins, they kept poking out!
