Great little black jacket

Loved it so much I bought it
Adored this dress for hot and humid days. Rented it for a business trip to Texas at the end of June and needed something that would be chic in the heat. This dress delivered! Wore it to the office with nude heels and the switch to sandals in the evening. Very flattering silhouette. Decided to keep it forever.

Nice, but not amazing
Nice dress, nice finish. It fit a little large and didn't Wow... but good for work.

So tiny! Size way up.
Could not possibly button around my rib cage. I'm a size 10 and the L fit like a S.

Almost a drop waist
This dress just was not flattering and I ended up sending it back unworn.

Loved it enough to buy it!
This clutch is so cute! It's large enough to carry a phone + my necessary party stuff (lipstick, keys etc). I loved it so much I had to buy it.

Loved them so much I bought them!
Perfect casual pant for travel! These are super stretchy and flattering. They hold their shape well, so you can wear them while traveling or for multiple days and they still look great. They run a little large, so you can probably size down. I loved them so much I found them on a price match sale at Nordstrom and purchased them for keeps.

Casual
More casual than I expected and too small to hold my every day needs. I swapped it out for another bag that was perfect. Really nice color though.

Nude Pink Vincent Crossbody
AllSaints
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"

Bust: 34DD
Didn't work out
It looked so beautiful in pictures... but in reality felt cheap. The waist was lower than my natural waist, making the proportions off. Additionally it's thin scuba material. I sent it back with the tags still on it.

Blue Flare Suit Dress
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"

Great wrap dress! Loved the flair at the hem.
Very thick fabric, hides and undergarment seams. The arms are a bit narrow.

Navy Wrap Dress
Nicole Miller

Great LBD
Wanted something to wear to evening industry events at a trade show in Vegas. This was great because it was fun, but not revealing. Might rent again.

Black Flutter Dress
Rachel Zoe
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"

Super flattering!
This skirt was so much more flattering than I expected. It camouflaged my tummy and the length was great on my 5'3" frame. I wore it with heeled boots and a turtleneck and will definitely be renting again.

Utility Belted Skirt

Super cute!
Super cute and great quality! No risk of errant glitter with this bag! I wish it had been a little bit bigger so I could fit my zippy wallet inside comfortably.

Might have been able to size down. Beautiful dress with thick material. Needs a cami underneath.

Liked it but didn't love it
Runs large- might have been better on a taller person.

Sonia Long Sleeve Blouse

Vibrant coat- great collar
Loved the collar on this coat- it could be worn more open or popped up for a different look. Not the warmest, but great for mid-30s.

Red Jenna Coat

Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 8

Perfect for travel
I rented this dress in two colors for a business trip overseas. Very chic and comfortable and did not wrinkle in my suitcase. Will likely rent again.

Beautiful colors; fun top
Beautiful shirt! I agree with other reviews... the tie at the waist can be a bit tricky. It kept shift around so I needed to adjust the shirt several times throughout the day. I'll probably rent again.

Klara Wrap Top

Awesome coat. Super cute. Liked the cropped fit and long arms. Very flattering and warm.
Flattering and warm

Faux Fur Cropped Leather Jacket

Nice work dress
Very nice work dress, great color. There is a seam that runs straight down the middle of the chest, but I did not see in the model's photos. I don't know that I would rent this again but it was very nice to wear to work a few times. The dress is not terribly long, so it fit well on my 5 foot 3 frame.

Ruffle Faux Wrap Dress
Amanda Uprichard
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"

Great easy dress
Great dress, easy to wear. The tighter sleeves and V-neck make it flattering despite being very voluminous. There is a metallic running through the pattern.

So chic!
I wore this hosting thanksgiving dinner. So chic! I belted it to make it shorter/more flattering on me. I tied the neck in the back and let it drape a little in front. I will rent this again in the future.

Mod Splotch Dress
Nina Ricci
Size Worn: 44
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"

So much better than expected!
The fitted shoulders and cropped sleeves make this dress so much more flattering than anticipated. It is short- so I've been wearing it with super opaque tights or leggings. High heeled boots also help to balance out the volume of the dress. I'm conflicted if I want to keep it for a while longer or swap out for the similar red dress by ba&sh. If it was just a little less expensive I would buy it.

Robe Cocea Dress

Beautiful
Love the style and pockets. Perfect for my 40th birthday. The dress fit well, but the density of the sequins made me look bigger. I probably could have sized down to avoid it, but instead added a sash which made it more flattering. The sequins are really yellow gold ombré to black, not as brown as it looks in the model photos.

Ombre Natasha Dress
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"

Runs big
The dress is very stretchy and runs big. The thick sequin material adds bulk if you don't size down. That combined with the high crew neck made it unflattering on me. I decided to wear another dress.

Confetti Holly Dress

Size Worn: NONE

Love the skirt, made the top work.
Upper fabric is thin and arms are very fitted. I loved the skirt and wish the dress was made entirely of that material. I wore a cami underneath to keep it work appropriate.

Lovely fabric, tight arms.
Beautiful fabric but tight in the arms. If I had more movement in the arms I might have purchased.

Beautiful dress.... hit of the party
I wore this to a Halloween party as Frida Kahlo. Beautiful dress, and I wish I had another event to wear it to, out of costume. The 10 fit nicely, I may have been able to squeeze into an 8.

So much fun!
This dress was so much fun! The first dress I had planned to wear for the wedding looked frumpy so I rented this one hoping for a better fit and look. This dress delivered! The ruffled sleeves are flattering and the skirt made my curves look great. Dress was perhaps a little on the small side, but the design of it made it work. I would rent this again.

Wore it to the office when my planned wedding outfit didn't work out.
Beautiful necklace. I had planned to wear it to a wedding with an understated dress, but when the dress looked more frumpy than classy I had to go to Plan B. Ended up wearing this necklace with tweed trousers and a simple navy blue long sleeve T-shirt. Got tons of compliments. Nice piece that you can get a lot of wear out of.

Looks great on some reviewers but I found it only okay on my curvy figure.

So soft and warm!
Great jacket- the collar and interior faux fur is so warm and comfy! The leather is beautiful and soft. I'll definitely be looking into other jackets by the same designer.

Needed to size up!
I sized up to a 10 (I normally wear an 8) but really would need a 12 for it to be wearable. Despite the thick fabric, the seams at the bustline showed through. I tried it one with a pair of tights and you could see the seams there as well. Too bad because it's a lovely dress.

I wanted to love this vest, but it left me underwhelmed.
I have had my eye on this vest since I first signed up for RTR Unlimited and was so excited for it to arrive. But when it did, I was let down. The fit is tight around the hips, so zipping it up makes for weird gaps and bulges. Wearing it open is okay, but it does make you look larger than you might in something more flattering. I really thought this would be a hit, but I'm just meh about it. I might keep it through the weekend, but am already looking for another vest/jacket to swap for.

Might not send it back!
Wow. This necklace is definitely the standout of my latest Unlimited shipment. I love the oversized proportions, and think it's so flattering on. The clasp does catch some hair, but I can overlook that. I suspect that this necklace maybe my first purchase from RTR as I don't know that I can send it back.

Perfect size, comfortable chain.
Just big enough for what I needed- I had two phones (work & personal phone as I was on a business trip) a few tampons, lipstick and mascara, and a money clip tucked in there. It would not have held much more. The chain was comfortable and could be worn cross body or doubled up and worn on the shoulder. The bag was showing some wear, but the leather was beautiful. If the purchase price had been a little bit lower I would have been very tempted to purchase it. I'll keep my eye out for AllSaints bags in the future.
