Yes!
This is a frosty green color in real life and I absolutely loved it! The fabric has a little bit of sparkle, but not so much that you feel gaudy. It was super lightweight and the pleats in the skirt were so pretty! Great design. Even my teenage daughter loved this dress.

Fantastic quality!
This is a cropped shirt so be prepared to wear high waisted jeans of show a little midriff. I absolutely loved this shirt- the embroidery was so pretty and the eyelet lace detail made this sexy but it also hit at just the right spots so you don't feel too exposed . You can wear a nude bra and not feel exposed at all or have some fun with a pretty bralette.

Easy to turn up or turn down
The feminine, girly print is what drew me to this initially but what I ultimately liked best were the buttons that easily turned up the sexy or made this wearable to the office. I wore it twice and my husband wanted me to wear it on a date - def worth renting!

Worth putting in the rotation
This is another quality Pease in the RTR repository. The light blue color was so feminine and pretty, I ended up pairing it with a patterned silk scarf around my neck. The fabric weight was really light so perfect for warmer weather, but it was also really opaque so no worries about see-through anything. The only thing I wish I could've changed was the tightness of the bodice. It fit fine in my chest so I couldn't have gone down a size, but I wore it in spite of that and got so many compliments.

You’ll like this one!
I hate I didn’t take a pic in this one. I loved this skirt. The fabric is thick and has a nice stretch so it fits well to form and is flattering without being sleazy. The zipper detail and faux belt work so well. I paired with a cream top and camel colored pumps.

Good work dress
Light, comfortable fabric, not see thru but you’ll need some type of slip or shape wear to smooth things over a bit. Well made - I’d recommend!

Loved
Well made, loved the print, fabric is light. There are modesty buttons in the exact right spots so although the dress has functioning buttons all the way down I never felt like I was going to be exposed with a gap.

Simple and met expectations
The print on this one is like a chain - seems a little dated but the dress fit well, material was light and soft, and the color scheme was good. I wore this with leather camel colored boots and it worked.

Great print and we’ll made
This is cropped - but even with really high waisted jeans and a high waisted pencil skirt I kept having to tuck the shirt back in.

This skirt makes moves
A RTR stylist recommended this skirt and I was hesitant, Taylor love ya girl for sticking with me thru that and making me take the chance on it. Loved this skirt! The silk is so light and makes the skirt flowy and the buttons down the middle of this skirt give it a little structure. Tried to capture the way the skirt flows in the pic I posted for this review. The waist is banded but there is NO give in it (remember silk skirt).

Work this one into your shipment!
The details on this shirt are so sweet, from the beads on the upper arm, to the ruffle mid sleeve, and the pearls at the end of the ties. The fabric is the perfect balance of opacity and transparency so the shirt strikes a good balance of the crop with modesty. I wore this top with barrel jeans and leather flats but this could easily be paired with a denim skirt or some high rise wide legs jeans as well. Ended up keeping this one!

Farm Rio for the Win
I don’t wear minis often so figured renting would be the way to go. The dress wasn’t too short, the fabric is great quality, the print has a bit of gold that will pair nicely with gold accessories, the sleeves can be worn long but the dress also looks so cute with them cinched up a bit on the arm. The style looked great with hair down, slick back pony…just so many ways to wear this simple little dress and so many reasons to love it. This particular dress found a forever home.

Flattering and great quality
Great dress, thick fabric, the cut accentuates your waist, and there’s a sweet split detail in the cuff of the sleeve. I wore to work so pulled the fabric towards the back so it draped a little instead of wearing it as an off the shoulder as intended. Have to say tho that the off the shoulder really sets this dress off. Would ge a great fall date night dress!
