Warm, cotton sweater in a great pattern.
This was perfect for my vacation as well as at home. I loved the brown and blue combination and the design.

Love these barrel pants
I was looking for a pair that wouldn't be too long for me and these were perfect. They were so cute and comfortable. Next time I would size down, I should have gone with waist size and not dress size. Also, the belt loops were too small for my belt in the front. Despite this, I can't wait to rent them again.

I read the reviews and thought it would work for a wedding. I was pretty dissappointed with the fit.

Adorable skirt, but short
I loved this skirt, but it was short, even on my 5'2 frame. I sized up to get more length and ended up wearing leggings to compensate. I'd definately rent again because it's fun.

Perfect for the cold weather
This is my second time renting these fun overalls and I went down a size because the medium had a lot of room. Small was a better fit and I wore a long sleeve t with it. I always get compliments on the style--in a fun, youthful way, not a sophisticated look.

I would have worn it more if the weather was warmer, but it is a great basic tee with a bit of polish.

Didn't work for me
I read the reviews and thought I'd be able to make the top work but it was too revealing so I went with another dress. It's a pretty pattern and lightweight material, but not for my body.

Really cute casual look.
Definitely my vibe. Cute and easy to wear. The other reviews helped me understand how it wears (one piece, partially tucked). I teach middle school and it’s perfect for the fall or spring. Considering buying.

Pretty, effortless gown for black tie wedding
Beautiful, elegant dress that worked at an outdoor wedding on a hot August day. I studied the reviews because at 5"1 I am concerned about length. Reviews were spot on, although this was on the long side, I was able to wear low heels and the dress just barely grazed the floor. The neckline was a bit lower than I anticipated.

Elegant formal dress
This is a pretty column dress. I didn't wear it because it is velvet and I was looking for a dress for an outdoor black tie summer wedding--this would be great for a winter wedding and I think I will rent it again in the winter. Updating because I stalked RTR to rent this dress for a February wedding. It looked great on, I got several compliments and it made me feel elegant.

Classic with a twist, but runs small in the chest
This was an adorable dress. I wore it with a black turtleneck underneath because it was in the teens in New England. It runs tight across the chest--I read all the reviews and didn't think I'd have a problem, but...I wore it anyway.

Nice formal dress
I wore this to a wedding and I got several compliments. It was a bit low neckline (I am not one for cleavage) and I used tape to keep it secure. Being 5"2, the length was perfect, the "jacket" effect was unique and it was easily accessorized with jewelry.

This was short, like the reviews said, but I thought I could get away with it since I am also short, but it is really small--this did not seem like an 8 at all.
