Might have to buy this
This skirt was a much better piece than I expected and I loved it. I wore it to a more casual gala and received a lot of compliments. The slit is quite high when seated, so caution there, but great otherwise. It does run a tad big but not terribly. I sized down one size and it was perfect.

Cute, casual and après ski chic
Fits true to size and is not scratchy at all. I wore it with and without a tank underneath and was fine both ways. It's thick but not too thick to be too hot in the winter.

Very firm fitting and curve enhancing
This was a great top to wear with a leather pencil skirt or tailored pants. It's quite firm fitting but still comfortable. I found it true to size.

Awkwardly cropped
This sweater is a nice, thick cotton with a great feel, but it’s a tad awkwardly cropped for me. The bottom band should tuck under high waist pants, which it will, but the sweater portion above is a bit poofy and doesn’t stay tucked. When untucked, it just looks a little off on me. I’m short but I have a longer torso, so that makes some crops tricky.

Cute but wide
This top is great for a hot and humid day. It’s breezy and loose in a cute unstructured way, but it does tent out wide at the bottom which made me look super wide with it untucked. It looks tucked in, but the length makes it a little hard to do that without really high rise jeans. I found it true to size for me.

Thick and warm
This cardigan is gorgeous! However, it is a thicker fabric which is far too warm for coastal Georgia in the early fall, so I didn’t end up really wearing it, but definitely plan to rent it when it’s colder. It hits right at the top of my hips and his form fitted without being too tight. It layers well over jeans or dress pants and looks cute with a variety of different neck lines under the sweater.

Black Tinley Cardigan

Gorgeous
I love this skirt! It’s a good length for petites, easy to customize the fit on the waist, beautiful and fun colors and a nice weight to the cotton that draped well without being too thick or too flimsy. The tie was a bit long, but that gave me options on how to tie it. I paired it with a crepe top and also with a chunky cardigan for a chilly evening and thought it worked well with both. I feel like it would dress up or go casual very easily. I found it to be true to size.

Good for petites
These jeans are so comfy, I’m tempted to buy them and alter them just a bit to fit me better. I’m not a true curvy fit by most denim standards, but I’ve found in a 28 in my thighs but a 26/27 in the bun and waist. These looked great from the butt down, but the waist was a bit large on me. Not so bad that a belt lock led bad, but I probably should’ve sized down one. Im a 27 waist and 38 hip, wore the size 28. I do think these would stretch with more wear too.

Bought it
This top is super cute both tucked in or out. It’s a little bit boxy, so requires a bit of styling, but I love it! I wore it both with a strapless bra and once with pasties and it worked well both ways. The neck is a little bit loose, but not awkwardly so. I found it true to size.

Super comfortable and breezy
I wore this top a few times during my rental and loved it! It is comfortable and breezy and easy to wear tucked in or out of clothing. The cotton is very soft and drapes well.

Cute but looser neck
This halter is really cute and made a fun wardrobe edition. It was a little bit hard to get the neck tied so that it was not loose looking. Otherwise, super cute and tucked into high rise bottoms well.

Super cute and unique texture
I wore this top a couple of times and found it very easy to style. It is slightly cropped, but not unprofessionally so. It is also slightly sheer, but not terribly. The only downside to the shirt was that it had a lot of tags on the inside side that I wish I could have cut. They did show through and made the side lay a little bit weird.

Too puffy in the front
These fit my waist well but the pleats on the front just made me look odd and frumpy. These weren’t my favorite.

Fits beautifully and super comfortable
This dress fit like a dream, ties in the right spot to flatter your midsection and it’s not too short to sit comfortably. The linen is nice and breathable and the bodice is lined so it’s not sheer. I may end up buying this dress. I wore a small and it was a perfect fit.

Wrinkly and transparent
These pants are really cute and comfortable. The fabric is very lightweight and feels nice on your skin. However, it is incredibly wrinkly and required significant steaming before I felt comfortable leaving the house. Also, I had to make sure I was wearing nude underwear otherwise you could see The color of my undergarments. Also, you can see the color of anything you try and tuck in with these pants. Definitely not something I would buy but ok to rent. Also, I appreciated the length since I am short. They hit just above my ankles and didn’t make me look super short like some cropped pants do. The size 6 fit well on my athletic figure.

Super cute but hard to tie
I really loved this shirt and thought it was such a fun look! It definitely required ironing on the bottom because the edges were so creased, but once it was smoothed out, it was super adorable! The ties were a bit hard to fix so that I did not have any wardrobe malfunctions, but it made for a fun look. I styled it with some Veronica Beard shorts as well as some other high waisted pants. I’m not sure I would buy this, but enjoyed it for a rental.

Slightly large fit
These shorts are fantastic and work very well with a number of different tops. They were a little wrinkly on the bottom so they required some steaming and ironing, and the rent the runway tag was awkwardly sewn to the pocket, so I needed to safety, pin it up to keep it from hanging out from outside the short. But otherwise, these were very flattering on my hips and made my legs look nice and slender based on the cut. The waist is high and nips in a bit, giving a nice hourglass look. I probably could have sized down to a four and they would have fit well. Will definitely rent again!

Wear with bloomers
This dress is really cute and gives a 1920s summer vibe. I loved the look but ended up not wearing it because the event I had planned required sitting and standing and I quickly realized that any sitting in this would place my uncovered tush completely on the seat with no dress to hide it. That wasn’t going to work. For a standing/walking event, it would be great. Just not ideal for what I needed. I found the dress true to size. I took a medium and typically wear a 4/6.

Comfy and breezy
I might have to buy this dress. I just loved it so much! And I thought it was really fun when I saw it featured on the Hunting Wives on Netflix. I wore a 6 but could have probably sized down and been ok too. The dress just flows well, is breathable, and the top is thick and structured enough that I could go without a bra. The straps are elastic, so they do have some give but didn’t slide or need adjusting for me. This hit mid calf on my 5’4 frame.

Right arm holes but loved this
This dress was gorgeous! A lot better than I assumed it would be from the photos. It was a crisp and breathable cotton skirt that worked very well in the swampy heat of coastal Georgia. The top was very fitted, but didn’t make me feel sticky or anything gross in the weather. The cut was incredibly flattering, except for the tightness of the arm holes, which I think made my arms look a little bit chunky at the opening. My husband said it wasn’t noticeable, so maybe it’s me being picky. I do have stronger arms though so might not be an issue for others. I’m 5’4, 137, 32C with an athletic figure and the dress was ankle length. The size 6 was perfect other than the arm holes.

Gorgeous but long
This dress is gorgeous but maybe a bit long for short ladies. I’m 5’4 so it hit me just above my ankles, which wasn’t bad but probably looks better on taller people. Also, beware the top. The little hook that’s meant to keep the neck from showing your entire cleavage kept popping open so I had to safety pin it mid event. It does wrinkle and required some very careful ironing (dry clean only so steaming doesn’t work and you can’t use a hot iron or it’ll melt) but wouldn’t quite unwrinkle like I hoped. Still a gorgeous dress and worked well for my event. I wore a size 6 and it fit beautifully.
