Ethereal and gorgeous
Felt like a goddess in this lacy number and got tons of compliments. The color is beautiful, the cut is not too long or short, and the fabric is breathable. Comfy!

Cute everyday dress
Love the color and pattern on this, and the fit is forgiving. There is, however, no stretch in the fabric, so it can be tough to get a full range of motion in the arms.

Flattering
The fit on this top was perfect and the colors were even more gorgeous in person. Would suggest to size down if between sizes, for sure.

Pretty color and forgiving fit
I wore a 6 in this dress, but could have gotten away with the 4 for sure. Both looked flattering, but ultimately I figured the 6 would give me more room to eat and drink and dance- a must for a wedding! Loved the color on this dress and the gold accents, the bow in the back is super cute too. Didn't get as many compliments on this one as I usually do with a RTR, so my feeling is that it was a good dress but not a total show stopper. It's ok, they can't all be! I was comfortable and felt glittery all night :)

A dainty statement
I did not want to send this dainty stunner back! It's easy to wear but makes a powerful statement. Would wear this baby again and again!

Showstopper
I loooved the back of this dress, it's super low ;) the pattern, color and fabric are all amazing, not to mention the details. This dress looks great from all angles and is comfortable! That is, so long as you remember the fashion tape to avoid a wardrobe malfunction up top. The spaghetti strap did slip on me a few times, but I had it all taped up in the front so it was no big deal. Great with a long lariat necklace!! (Also RTR, pictured here.)

Awkward fit for me
I love a belt and high neck, but the fit on this one didn't work for me. The high neck is higher than it looks on the model and the belt didn't hit the right spot on my waist, and there wasn't a ton of leeway to adjust it. Also, the fabric is VERY heavy, so do not recommend for a warm day.

Perfect for a country music fest
I LOVED wearing this dress. Fashion tape on the chest was key to avoiding a wardrobe malfunction, since it works best without a bra but is very loose and flowy. I was a little self conscious about showing that much cleavage but with everything taped in there, quickly forgot to worry about it :) received tons of compliments in person and on social media- plus, overheard people whispering to each other about how amazing the dress was (which is even better!)

Gorgeous but SMALL
My backup size wasn't available the weekend I needed it so I risked it with a 4 and IT WAS VERY TIGHT! Made it work but definitely recommend sizing up for this one. Super cute pattern and stretchy fabric.

Lightweight statement earrings
These were a tad shorter and less sturdy than I had imagined them, but the good news is that they're super lightweight and they get the job done just fine.

So fun and glam!
I loooooved this dress for a red carpet in Vegas. Perfect mix of awards show classy with an edgy side. The fabric is heavy but not too much and there's a great shimmer to this dress. Stayed in place all night through tons of moving around and was pretty comfortable. One of my faves!

Too stiff and heavy
I usually adore any and all Kate Spade, but the fabric on this one is VERY stiff and heavy. Didn't love it. Made it hard to move around, plus the skirt was a little fuller than I was expecting and not the most flattering.

Classy with a side of sassy
One of my favorite "everyday" looks off RTR! Sad I didn't get a better picture in it. This dress can take you from day to night in a snap. Hemline hit a little above the knee and the neckline was a little bit plunge-y, depending on your chest size, so you could wear a black cami underneath. Speaking of which, the front is full coverage but the back is very sheer (from the waist up). I just let my bra show through the back, but a cami could also cover that up for you. Love the fit and flare silhouette and lightweight fabric, too. Super flattering and fun!

Super tight up top
I love this dress but sadly couldn't wear it. There is absolutely no give to the fabric and unfortunately with my chest size, I couldn't button up the top without serious gapping. Even though it fit fine through the waist and hips. Definitely would only recommend this to girls with a smaller chest OR size up to account for that.

Fun color and flirty silhouette
Very fun dress! Be aware that the bodice underneath doesn't have much give, so it can be a little tight. The neckline was also a little low on me so I had to pin up the strap on one side for more coverage. Also recommend posing in front of a mirror to figure out angles if you're going to be taking photos later. If you pose with the flowy side to camera, it can look a little mumu-like- definitely want to make sure you can see both sides of the dress in any photo ops!

Kind of a dud IRL
It's hard to tell what color this is from the photos but it is almost a lavender hue in person. Pretty but not really a show-stopper. Good for a wedding, but I opted for something a little flashier for my event. Note that the fit around the tummy can be tight and not the most flattering, so spanx are key or go a size up.

Can't tell it's a jumpsuit!
Once this is on, it looks just like a dress. Even standing with my legs totally wide, still couldn't tell it was a jumpsuit! That said, this is good for any gown/formal affair and maybe not casual/just a night out wear. But it's really comfortable and fun! I had a blast in this at the Grammys with just plain black heels and everyone was shocked every time I would say, "it's a jumpsuit!" Would absolutely recommend/rent again.

So fun and edgy
Loved these super fun and edgy earrings! The cuff part up top wasn't the most comfortable or secure, BUT they mostly stayed in place all night and I only had to reclip them a few times. Bc of their weight, it's really easy to tell when they're coming off, so quick and easy to fix. Got loads of compliments on them at the Grammys!

So cute and classy!
I LOVED this dress! I wasn't sure if it would make me look frumpy or boring, but I felt super lady-like and fab all day long. The material is stretchy but snug underneath the overlay. I usually run somewhere between a 4 and a 6, and I felt totally comfortable in the 6. Perfect for daytime chic! Would rent again.

Sexy and glitzy
The photos make this dress look metallic, but it's actually covered in sequins! I was surprised when I opened it up, but it was a pleasant surprise. This dress is TIGHT, so may want to break out those spanks. It is very flattering on the behind, if I do say so. I loved that it was sexy and eye catching without showing too much skin. (The long sleeves balance out the short skirt.) Very fun dress that people could not stop raving about! I've been told it was one of my best red carpet looks. :)

Gorgeous color and fabric
This dress is stunning in person. I got SO many compliments and felt completely comfortable all night. The sleeves are a little snug, but in a good way. (And I have big arms!) You don't want to have loose-fitting lace sleeves on something like this. (Girls with large busts or arms might want to go up a size on your backup. I also tried on a 6 and could have worn that one, too.) I love the sheer high neck - never felt like my cleavage was too much, or the skirt was too short, but the fit was still super flattering, classy and sexy. (My husband couldn't get enough of this one.) HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Wish I could keep it!

Lightweight with SO MUCH SPARKLE
OMG, I can't begin to say how much I LOVE these earrings. Super lightweight, comfortable, and sooooo sparkly! Plus, they go with everything. I wore these on a red carpet, but I would wear them to everything if I could. (FYI: They're not super gold looking. Much of the gold metal is hidden, so you see way more of the crystal than anything else.)

Fun and so easy!!!
I LOVED this romper. Had to rent in a 6, but could have gone with a 4. (The shorts part of it was a little long on me, but not bad. Definitely comfortable!) Rented this for my bachelorette weekend and wore it out on our first night. I loved the way it fit and I felt comfortable and confident all night. Light fabric, but not sheer. No worries about flashing anyone, or sucking anything in. And it looked cute all night!! I SO wanted to keep this one, and may have gone on to buy other rompers from Kate spade after renting this. I usually hate rompers because they can be tight on my hips, but not Kate's! Wish I had gotten a full body shot of this one, but I do love the ruffles on the shoulders :)

Perfect bridal dress
I rented this for my bridal shower/bachelorette weekend and can't begin to count how many compliments I received! I love a fit and flare style on my body type and this one was perfect. Only downside: couldn't lift my arms up too high, there was very little give to the fabric. But that's ok!! I could lift my drink to my lips and that's all that matters :) The lace is so beautiful and detailed, with eyelashes along the trim. The pink underlay doesn't show much in photos, but is a little bit brighter in person. I'm 5'4 and the dress hit just above my knee. Flattering, without showing too much skin. PERFECT color and style for any bridal occasion.

Gorgeous, but a little heavy.
These earrings are stunners, but a little on the heavy side. Definitely best worn for relatively short periods of time.

Looks better in photos than it does in person.
Rented this for engagement photos, since our wedding colors are blush and gold. The coloring on the dress looks WAY different in photos than it does in person.(I personally think it photographs better than it looks in person.) Given that the point of renting it was specifically for photos, I'm not mad about that. The pink is very bright, while the gold bounces a lot of light. I loved the fit of the dress. It was snug to my figure without being too tight - just had to be mindful of whether people could see up it when I was sitting down!

Beautiful, dreamy dress. Tight if you're curvy!
Rented this for our engagement photos on the beach. Our photographer thought the white tulle would look gorgeous in the late-day lighting (she was right!). I read a TON of reviews and decided to go up a size, since I tend to be curvier in the boobs and hips - was glad I did. Definitely not a bra dress, and it's tight all the way through the mid-thighs. No give to the fabric at all, which is OK as long as you have the right size! The tulle is a bit see-through, you can definitely see my legs in a lot of the pictures. Not mad about it, I think it actually looks beautiful, just something to be aware of ahead of time. Also, the dress I received definitely had some tears/holes towards the bottom of the tulle, but you couldn't tell at all in photos. It's hard to avoid snagging tulle on things, so I totally get it. Again, just something to be conscious of ahead of time.
