The Coolest Girl in the World
My lord, I adored this dress. It somehow manages to be both sculptural and wearable, appealing to both the male and female gaze - a true unicorn. The asymmetrical hem and unexpected structure made me feel like a walking piece of art, the kind you’d find at a high-concept Chelsea gallery. And yet, despite its avant-garde silhouette, it’s incredibly flattering. I wore it to work with all the skirt buttons fastened so it hit at tea length, but you can also undo a few buttons for a flirtier, mini-skirt reveal. Fits true to size. I’m still recovering from the self-restraint it took not to buy it.

Romantic, Flowy, and Flattering Despite a Few Quirks
This dress really is a showstopper. The autumnal floral print is stunning in person - bold but elegant - and the color is versatile enough for summer or early fall events. I adored the balance of the long sleeves with the plunging neckline and high slit - sexy, but still sophisticated. I’d read reviews about the fit in the shoulders, and while it’s definitely a bit snug, it didn’t bother me (surprisingly, since I have broad shoulders). The bodice fit perfectly on my smaller chest (I’m a 34B/36A), never felt I was going to give anyone a peep show., and the length was perfect with 2.5-inch heels. It flows wonderfully when you walk and feels special to wear. Honestly, I’m tempted to buy it - it made me feel amazing.

Looks Better Than It Feels (But I Might Try Again)
I wanted to love this - I’m a sucker for a basic with a twist (in this case, the twist was literal) - but the fit / drape and feel left me a little ambivalent. The fabric is stiffer than expected (almost like a linen blend), and the twist detail hit in a slightly awkward spot on my body. That said, it looks great in photos, so I might just need to try it in my usual size (medium instead of small). Thinking of renting it again & sizing up.

Elevated & Cozy
This sweater is super soft and cozy - beautiful in person and definitely has that expensive, elevated-basic vibe. The alpaca gives it a unique texture: oddly both super soft and slightly itchy at the same time. The itch isn’t a dealbreaker, just something to note. I sized down to an XS (normally a medium) because I’m not into oversized fits, and it worked perfectly. Just the right weight - warm without being too bulky, and easy to tuck.

Ridiculously Perfect Tee
I absolutely love this ridiculously expensive t-shirt, though I admit to having a Proenza Schouler bias. I already own one of the tie-dye sweatshirts from this same line, and this tee is just as dreamy. The color is described as "brown," but I'd say it's more of an olive/army green shade (accurately depicted in photos), regardless, it's super flattering. The fabric is insanely soft with a perfect drape that’s hard to describe - elevated but effortless. Fit is slightly generous; I usually wear a medium but found the small ideal. Would’ve bought it on the spot, but my discount code didn’t work… so now I wait.

Chill Fit with Style Mood Swings
Loved the fit - true to size with a slight bit of extra room, which worked great for the laid-back carpenter style. Funny enough, these walk a fine line between “cool girl” and “PTA mom,” totally depending on how you style them. The wash is interesting, but I found myself wishing for a more lived-in gray stone wash to give them a bit more edge.

Soft & Flattering
Loved the soft denim and flattering fit - definitely comfy and true to size. The stacked waist detail adds a fun twist, though in person, the execution felt slightly less refined than expected. Also seemed a bit longer than the listed 31.5” inseam. Still a cool, elevated denim option.

These AGOLDE jeans were effortlessly stylish—loved the criss-cross waist detail for that laid-back, edgy vibe. Super comfy and ran true to size, maybe even a touch roomy. Tempted to keep them!

Fun Take, Shorter Than Expected
Loved the stacked waist detail - such a fun update to a classic high-rise cut. These felt trendy without trying too hard. I’m normally a 27 or 28, got the 27 & they were great, the 28 would have likely also worked. So although I found them true to size, the inseam ran short - closer to 30” than the listed 32” (I’m 5’8”). Still, the length worked well for the style. Great rental for experimenting with new denim silhouettes.
