Great suit set
I rented this blazer with the shorts and loved the look. The blazer is a bit big and I rolled the sleeves up, but altogether it was a cute look, relaxed but polished.

Attractive sweater dress
I wore this to a work event, and got a lot of compliments from my colleagues. Fit it TTS, and it’s body conscious and flattering without being too tight. My only complaint is that it was a little big in the shoulders so I was often adjusting the sleeves to keep them from falling down.

Not my favorite
I didn’t love this sweater. I didn’t realize that there was silver metallic thread, and I thought that made it a little silly. The fit is intended to be oversized, which I usually like, but I thought it was a little big and didn’t really do anything for my figure.

Best wedding guest dress
I rented this for a semi formal wedding. The dress was gorgeous and super comfortable, and I got so many compliments. This is my favorite dress I've rented for a wedding wedding! Fit seemed TTS or maybe ran a tiny bit big- I could have worn the XS. I'm 5'3'' and it was a maxi vs. a midi on me.

Late 90s throwback
These jeans reminded me of what I used to wear in middle school, in a good way! They fit TTS, and accommodated my hips and thighs - it's rare that I can fit in a high-waisted jean without stretch. They were a little longer than I wanted, so I rolled the cuffs to get an ankle/cropped length.

This dress is pretty, but I felt like it was both loose and long. I needed to wear with a heel or platform to ensure it wasn't dragging on the ground.

Great western shirt
I loved this shirt - it's a cute take on a western-style shirt. I found it fit true to size, sleeves were the right length, and no gapping in the front.

Enormous jeans. Size down.
These jeans were enormous, and so high-waisted that they were up past my ribs. I usually wear a 28 in Hudson jeans and these were huge. They were unwearable, and I'm not sure that sizing down would have helped me; just not the right jeans for my body.

A lesson in why you should always read the reviews
The shoulder pads in this shirt are... shocking if you don't expect them. And I didn't expect them.

Great summer to fall dress
This dress is great for end of summer/early fall weather, and could be worn into winter with a turtleneck. I liked the oversize fit for a casual, everyday look.

Great WFH option
This was a fun, oversize top. I believe the fit is supposed to be baggy, so I think it's true to size. I wore it for a business casual, work from home look.

Loved it and bought it
This is a great, easy dress. If you are looking for a slightly looser fit, it fits true to size. It's a very simple dress, but I got so many compliments every time I wore it. I ended up buying this one.

Runs small
I found this dress unfortunately ran small in the bust, so I couldn't wear it. It's cute and sexy, and hopefully I'll be able to snag it in a size up before the cold weather comes.

Runs small
The bust runs really small on this. I couldn't wear a bra with it because it was so tight. I recommend sizing up, and don't recommend it for anyone with a large chest.

Solid denim basic
I have varying luck with denim miniskirts, so sized up on this one. I think this one runs true to size, because the 6 was too big. Otherwise a cute skirt, good for summer going into fall.

Great WFH option
When I was in sixth grade, I remember really wanting a short sleeve satin like green button down shirt... so I decided to give this a try in honor of my sixth grade self! This was nice and silky and fit really nicely in the shoulders and waist. I think it translates really well over videoconference. If it wasn't so expensive, I probably would have bought it.

Perfect COVID house dress
This house felt very 40s housewife and very appropriate for the shelter in place moment. It's super breezy and comfortable, and nice for working from home and strolling around the neighborhood. It runs large, but I'm not really trying to wear anything fitted at the moment, so I thought it was perfect. I find LoveShackFancy midi dresses to be more like maxis on me - this one was also pretty long on me and probably hit an inch or so above the ankle.

Great overall for shorter women
These overalls were the perfect length for me and hit right at the angle. They were a little tight through this hips and butt on first wear, but loosened up after a couple more wears. They are very bright white and make for a fun, casual outfit.

Translates well over Zoom
I ended up wearing this around the house and for hosting a few work Zoom calls. I got a ton of compliments and the dress was referred to as my "movie star look." It has an open back and would make a nice dress for a spring or summer wedding. Fit is a little big on top and you can't wear a regular bra with this (but who's wearing regular bars these days anyway?).

Pretty pattern, runs small
The colors on this dress are pretty and it makes for a fun weekend dress. It's pretty tight in the waist and bust, so recommend sizing up. It's probably best for a more petite chest.

Didn't love
This top runs super small in the bust; I am petite on top and the top couple of buttons were still pulling. It's also very low cut, which I didn't expect from the photos.

Lots of compliments, but not my favorite
The dress had a lot of stretch and was easy to get on and comfortable to wear all day. The pattern is unique and I received a lot of compliments. I found the waist to be too big, and thought the slit in back went up a little high.

Suprisingly flattering
Since I'm a kind of curvy 5'3'', I have to be careful with a cropped flared pant. These actually ended up being super flattering - they hugged my hips nicely and fell a little above my ankle. They have a little stretch and I found they stretched a bit more thoughout the day, so were comfortable by the end of a long day. I wore with the matching blazer, and while the full suit is a bit loud, I loved the look - I got compliments from strangers throughout the day!

Great office attire
I rented this dress as an altnerative to a suit for an interview - I didn't end up wearing it to the interview because it felt a little too fun. I wore it to the office for a random day to be fancy, and really loved it. The fit and design is flattering, though I found the waist to be a little too big. The neoprene material is a bit itchy as others mentioned, but I forgot about it after awhile.

Sad to return this jacket!
I loved this jacket - it was warm and went well with jeans and with dresses. It came down to mid-shin for me, but that's the look I wanted. The sleeves and shoulders fit really well. I would have kept it all season, but it's been an unseasonably warm winter and I didn't want it to go to waste. Enjoy!

Great winter sweater, but short sleeves
This sweater is warm, comfortable and versatile. The slit neck makes it a little more special than your average sweater. Be warned that the sleeves are short - I have shorter arms, and they were well above my wrist.

Lovely and easy
I rented this skirt for a couple weeks, and wore it to work, a family event, outdoor brunch, and nice dinner. It is super versatile, very comfortable, and a cool pattern. I received a lot of compliments on it. Fits true to size, lots of stretch. The only negative was that it seems like the material will wear out and pill pretty quickly. I don't think these skirts will be in great shape for very long.

Nice maxi skirt
I found this too fit a little too big in the waist, so it ended up being even longer than I thought it would be - came down to almost my ankles. The fabric is nice and high quality, and the detailing is very cute. The slit does make sitting down a little risque, but otherwise nice fit and comfortable.

Nice dress for the office
I thought this dress fit nicely and was comfortable for the day at the office. There is a little detail at the shoulders so that the dress doesn't lie flat across the shoulders, which I don't think comes across in the photos.

Fun plaid
I rented these pants ina 4 and a 6, and ended up sizing up to the 6. They fit a little too loose in the waist, but the hips and booty fit a lot better in the larger size. They came down to just about my ankle.
