A little short for work
Got it to wear to a conference but it was too short and 5'4". Mainly the sides scoop up a bit and show more skin than I want for work. It's still too hot in austin to wear long sleeves so I had to send back without wearing.

Spring has Sprung
Very comfortable top that hits right at waist, wore with high rise jeans and booties. Showed a little sliver of stomach, thought it gave what would be a preppy top a little sexiness. Will rent again, loved the colors!

Cute, comfy conference wear
Wore to a conference in Chicago with tan suede knee high boots and a brown, wide belt. It was fitted without being bodycon. Definitely enjoyed wearing it all day.

Great elevated jacket
Got this for a conference because i know it's always cold in those rooms. I ended up taking more tops and dresses with patterns that this didn't go with, but fits well, hits right at hips which is flattering for those of us with short torsos. Will rent again when I plan to wear with all black or a more neutral outfit.

Great colors
Fit well, TTS, and was very comfortable wearing with wedges to a birthday party. Did have to keep pulling the material down to cover my strapless bra, but i think a smaller profile bra or leaning in with a fun bralette would have been the way to go.

Perfect Baby Shower Outfit
This fit perfectly and looked so cute with raffia wedges for a friend's baby shower brunch at an Italian restaurant. Nice gauzy, flowy fabric that didn't look cheap or wasn't too thin, it had a lining so no worries about being see through. Got lots of compliments. The high-low hem kept it from feeling too overwhelming on my 5'4" frame like most maxi length dresses. Definitely renting this one again.

I sized up like usual for Reformation and this dress was still so short and small. It zipped up but i def couldn't have worn it. I'm 5'4" on a good day, for reference

Cute summer top
This looked adorable and fit true to size. It's great if you want to wear it off the shoulders, I wanted to wear it on the shoulders just to run around and grab lunch. They def kept falling off. You do have to have a cute bra because it's mostly open in the back.

Absolutely LOVED this dress. I rented it for a Derby watching party at the horse race track in Dallas. It fit perfectly and the thick cotton material moved nicely and looked very well made.

Cozy Teddy Coat
If you like the real big, slouchy look, then go with your size. It was way too big for me and my husband actually was able to put the Small on and button it and it was still a little big around the waist for him (5'9", 165 lbs). I'm going to try the XS next time and hope it is better. I'm sad it didn't work out because it's really soft and cozy. Did not end up wearing.

Fun party crop top
I sized up to a 6 hoping that it would be a little longer, but then it was really big around the ribs. So, then when I lifted my arms, most of my bra/under boob area would show. It is really cute, but I couldn't wear it.

Loved so much, I kept it!
This is such a sweet little sweater. It has nice details like the puffy sleeve and an interesting collar. It's very soft and a nice olive green color. I get compliments every time I wear it. The only thing to be aware of is that the puffy sleeve and 3/4 sleeve length make it a little uncomfortable when putting a coat on over. I just pull the sleeve down and hold it in my hand while getting the coat sleeve over then let it ride up with the coat. If you put the coat on with it at 3/4, then it pushes the sleeve way up and makes it really bulky around your elbow, bicep area. Not a big enough issue to not rent or buy, in my case.

Didn't get to wear on vacation
I think it might work if it fit. I sized up to a M based on some other reviews, but it found it really big in the hips and a little big in the waist so there was just a ton of material which made me look bigger than I am. I was hoping to take it on vacation, but didn't have time to switch out to a Small before I left.

Fun Vacay top
Got this to wear to Cabo. Wore with a white denim high waisted skirt and it didn't show too much skin. Like other reviewers said, it runs small, so I sized up to a Medium. The arms are still unreasonably tight. The rest of the top fit well up one size. It's a really nice cut and the color is so fun. I wore it, but I wouldn't rent again or buy because the arms were too uncomfortable to wear again.

Fun everyday sweater
Wanted a pop of color to add to my boring, daily 2020 WFH wardrobe. I really wanted to like this. It's a great color and was soft. I was just a weird length for me, not too flattering, it hit right at the widest point of my hips. A little longer would have been cuter with the boxy crop cut, or a little more cropped to show the waist of my pants going in. It fit TTS so i wouldn't have sized down. Maybe up a little.

Love, Love, Love this sweater. I sized down based on reviews and it's still baggy and cropped at the perfect length. Doesn't show skin. Nice slouchy look and it's so soft and cozy! I ended up buying it since I didn't want to part with it.

Needed some shine in 2020
Had my eye on this skirt for a while, wanted to pair it with a concert tee for a party. It was just too snug around my hips then got really fitted around the legs. If it was just snug and fell straight, i could like it. But it made my hips look even bigger (38" for reference) because it got really narrow. Some may like this look, guess it's kind of Kardashian fit.

Fun color and style
I really wanted these to work. I normally don't wear wide leg pants so i stepped out of my comfort zone. They looked a little too 70s for me to pull off with my style. They are very cute and fit really well. Like others say, the tie is a little strange to work with, but it seems to go well with cropped tees. I am too short waisted to try to tuck something in.

Love white jeans year round
These had a strange fit. They were true to size but snug in the hips and there was a big gap in the waist. I have this thing where if i have to think about it or try to make it work, it's a no. I didn't wear them out, I kept trying to find a top that would hit the right length to cover the pull in the hips. It did make my butt look good, but not flattering around my stomach.

Not for me
Wanted some good boyfriend jeans since it's hard to find any on RTR, the reviews were mixed but generally good from people my height and size. They weren't that flattering on me, i looked short and stumpy. They were pretty tight in the waist.

WFM Stables Wanted
Really wanted to like this shirt, great design, but the tee is so long that it's hard to half tuck without a lot of bulk. I rolled the sleeves because they were so long, then you could see my bra because the arm holes are so wide. I could size down, but then i feel like it will be too fitted around my hips to look relaxed since it is so long.

Love this dress. Had already rented it for work, then got grounded and couldn't fly to my client because of COVID, so i still wore it on the video call with the client that day, hence he Uggs with it. Will def rent again when I start flying to clients again.

Didn't end up wearing - thanks Quarantine
Thought i might be able to wear this as a daytime dress for zoom meetings, etc. But it was a little dressier than I thought and decided to just order again when I have somewhere to wear it. So cute. I'm glad i sized up to a 6 based on other reviews. Size 4 wouldn't have fit me at all.

This was absolutely perfect for a wedding on the beach in Key West. It was long in the back with 3.25" heels, but since it was short in the front, it worked fine. Was so comfortable in it. Very flattering and got lots of compliments.

Rented for my work holiday party but it was too long on my 5'4" frame (I'm being generous calling myself 5'4"). It wasn't that flattering, i looked really squatty. I need to stick to knee length and above. This hit mid-shins.
