It just doesn't work on me...
Maybe this just isn't for someone long-waisted? I've tried to figure out how to tie it so it doesn't look weird, but no luck so far.

Top too big...
I got the 12, and the bottom fit great but the top was WAY too big (as some other reviewers mentioned) so I did not wear. If you are a lot larger on top than the bottom this may be the dress for you.

So glad I sized up.
I am typically a 10 in dresses (but an 8 or M on top for shirts) and I had to size up to a 12 on this one. I'm so glad I did because the 12 fits perfectly. Can't wait to wear it on vacation.

The "4" was too small for this size 10.
These are so cute, but the biggest size these come in, "4" , was just too tight for me. I could get them on, but they just were too tight so didn't wear.

Weird fit
I rented this through RTR unlimited but didn't wear. It fits weird when pulled down off the shoulders like in the model pic (too tight across the arms, really baggy below) and if you wear it up like a cowl neck it doesn't look right either. Back it goes.

I loved this skirt!
I thought about sizing down in this one since I usually can in a-line skirts, but the waist was pretty snug with no stretch so the 10 was perfect.

You can see through the skirt in the sunlight...
I just got this for vacation/Easter with my family in Arizona, and I'm not sure I'll be able to wear it during the day. When I tried it on the sun was shining through the window behind me and I could totally see through the skirt! It is so cute otherwise, but I really don't want to have to get some sort of a slip to wear under it or something.

Cut top with unique cut-out
This was a cute top...sexier than the standard blouse. Better for drinks or a night out than dinner, though...I had to keep making sure the hanging ties on the sleeves didn't get into my marinara.

Didn't wear...too small
The medium was just too small enough that I didn't end up wearing it. Cute, so I might try a large next time.

Too short for long-waisted
I almost always wear a medium but this was a little tight and definitely too short at the waist. But the sleeves were really long, and I have pretty long arms. Overall the fit just wasn't good for me.

Cute for someone else, but not for me.
This is a nice shirt with a heavy, lined fabric but I just didn't love it on me. It just felt kind of big and grandma-y. I wore it once and am sending it back.

Not great for the long-waisted...
This sweater is really cropped (I am wearing a t-shirt under it here), which would be OK except for the pockets. You can't see it in this photo, but the front pockets hit at my rib cage and it just looks weird. Loved the sweater otherwise, though. It just isn't right for me.

Cute, but too short and tight in the hips for me.
This would look much better on someone with a less curvy bottom half. It was too tight in the hips (maybe an L would have been better) and also too short for me to wear without tights or leggings. The top half was really cute, though!

Great pants!
I love these pants! I usually wear a 10, and I did think the 10 in these ran snug. I felt like just because I could zip them up didn't mean I should...I was able to get away with wearing them because there is some stretch, but I will size up for my next rental. Other than that they were so much fun and so flattering. I loved the higher waist and the flare at the bottom.

I love this shirt, but fit was a little off on me
I love this shirt, but the 8 was big enough in the shoulders but tight in the rib area. I might try it again but size up, but I'm afraid the shoulders would be too big. I still wore it a couple of times, and would definitely rent again. The only other thing I didn't like (and this is minor) is that the inside of the sleeves, which are white and such a fun part of the shirt visually, aren't lined and you can see the dark seam. I think for a shirt of this price they should have lined the sleeves. Otherwise a fun shirt. I got a lot of compliments.

A nice winter skirt
I'm usually a size 10 in pants and went with the large since I didn't want this skirt to be too tight. I wore it a couple of times with back tights over the holidays. I really didn't think I'd love the elastic waist, but it was SO comfy.

At first I didn't love it, but then I put it on...
When this first arrived my first thought was that it looked like a figure skating costume with the nude background and all and that I most likely wouldn't wear it. Then I put it on and LOVED it. I'm not normally a large in dresses, but I wouldn't have been able to size down in this one. It is a lot more forgiving than I thought it would be. I'll definitely rent again.

Fun top, but I tied it wrong.
I am usually a small or medium in shirts and I got a small based on some other reviews. I thought it fit OK, but had trouble with it shifting around and I had to keep tugging at it. It turned out I tied it wrong. I just tied the two hanging pieces to make a knot...turns out you need to have one go over the sleeve and one under (between the top of your shoulder and the shirt), THEN tie them together. I did that after I got home and it fit much more like it does on the model.

Size up due to small waist
I didn't end up wearing these because the waist is really small (edited to add: the photo is the size large I did wear). It comes up high, just about to my ribs (and I'm long-waisted) and I just couldn't get the zipper up on a medium (I usually wear an 8 or a 10). They fit great everywhere else, just not the waist. I just ordered the large and am hoping they fit better.

Large, cozy sweater.
This was great for everyday...I wore this one a couple times before I returned it. I wore a blouse under it to dress it up a little, and also a long-sleeved t-shirt. This is one I would have kept if I could. I usually wear a medium in sweaters, but the small was plenty big.

A cute top that you can dress up or down.
I wore this for a birthday party and for a more casual event too. You can dress it up or down. This was one of the pieces I was sad to send back.

A great fall coat!
I really liked this coat. Even though it is supposed to be oversized I might try a small if I rent it again just because it felt borderline a little too big. This would be perfect for fall, but for winter you would want to belt it or something if you live somewhere that gets really cold. There is no closure on the front or belt, so it just hangs open a little. Also, the 3/4 sleeves can get a little chilly on cold days. But overall I really liked the quality of the coat. It looks a little more orange-y in photos than it does in person.
