So cute!
This clutch is so cute for the summer! It's low-key and unassuming but it definitely draws the compliments! Perfect for any summer event and matches all of my summer outfits. Best part is that it fits all of my essentials without being too big. If only it had a strap, it would be perfect!

Incredibly Small
This dress is incredibly small. I have rented dresses from this brand before and generally go down a size and they fit. I went with my regular size with this one and it's at least 2 sizes too small.

Cute dress if it had fit
I usually love Ciao Lucia dresses. However this one was very large compared to previous ones that I have rented. It ballooned out at points and overall made me look bigger than I am. The straps were also a bit problematic as there are two sets of them. Because of both, couldn't wear. However, if it did fit, the pattern and fabric of the dress were really nice.

Strange fit
This dress had a strange fit. It is a wrap dress so it's more forgiving on the bottom. However, the shape of the top part made it so that I had trouble getting it over my chest and it was gaping on my back. Didn't wear.

Incredibly small
This was incredibly small. It was also very short and see-through, so even if it had fit, I'm not sure that I would have felt comfortable wearing it.

I wanted to love it, but
It was a bit too big and shapeless. I loved the pattern and lightness of the fabric though!

Wicked Inspired Dress
This is a really cute dress and gets a lot of compliments. However, even with the adjustable shoulder straps, I couldn't get it to fit correctly. Either the straps kept falling down or the ruffles on the top would get messed up under my arms. It also is very light so a bit see-through; be careful on a windy day (or walking too fast ;) ). It does not have pockets, which was a bit disappointing after wearing past dresses by this brand.

Completely See-Through
This dress is completely see-through. The pattern isn't as pretty as it looks in the photos either. The tie for the skirt is also a bit awkward. It was disappointing because I usually love dresses from this brand, but I couldn't even wear it out of the house.

I got this NWT and just unbuttoning it off the hanger made one of the buttons come off, making it unwearable.

I wish this was shorter
This is not for those on the shorter size. It was massively long on me and even 2 inch heels didn't keep it from dragging. It is also not for those with larger busts as it's pretty tight across the top, squeezes everything together, and makes it harder to breathe, though it fit everywhere else. The colors are gorgeous and it has pockets!

Proportions are off
I was really disappointed with this. Based on the photos, I thought that the colors would be more vibrant, but they were actually pretty muted. The proportions were also off. It fit fine through the chest and waist and everything but then the arms were comically puffy and long so it made it look very strange, especially when buttoned.

Too small in the bust
I agree with the other reviews on the quality of the fabric and the overall look of the dress. However, I also found that it was very small in the chest. I couldn't get the buttons in that area to close.

Too large in chest; ruffles are a problem
I love the color of the dress and the fit of the dress from the waist down. However, the chest section of the dress was problematic. The cut was large and the ruffles look strange under your arms making for an awkward fit. The straps are also elastic but not adjustable so the combined result was that it sat down pretty low and ended up being more revealing than I would like. I'm not sure it will last over time as the straps get stretched out either. The fabric was light but it was lined.

Incredibly Small
This shirt was incredibly small; there was no way it was going to fit. It wouldn't even come close to buttoning. The sizing for this was way off. I wish I had known it was an Australian brand because they are always multiple sizes smaller than the tag would suggest because then I wouldn't have bothered renting.

Nonbreathable Fabric & Really Boxy
This dress was nothing like I expected. The pattern was a little out there for me, and the sizing was way off. As others mentioned, it was cut very low, would have had to wear something under it if wearing for an occasion, and the arm holes are strange because they clearly show your bra. On the other hand, the neck and sleeves were kind of tight with the elastic. It was a really boxy, shapeless dress and very short so have to be careful moving around in it. But the worst part was that the fabric was really heavy, itchy, not breathable at all. It wasn't even that hot and I was dying in it. Definitely not a summer dress. I wouldn't waste a spot on it.

Really Small on Top
This dress is really cute, and I would have loved to wear it. But it was way too small on top and I had no hope of getting it zipped. This is the second item from this brand and both were way too small on top to zip in my regular size, so I think the brand must run small.

It was way too small on top but the bottom fit well, so I turned the top into a tie around my waist and wore it as a skirt! The pattern is beautiful, but definitely only a one-time rent.

Very low cut & rides up; pretty pattern
The top as a whole is really pretty, with the pattern especially with the beaded tie. The problem is the execution of the design. It is definitely more of a vest than a top. It is so low cut that you definitely have to wear something underneath to make it appropriate. However, with the elastic in the top that then causes the top and the cami underneath to ride up and constantly have to be pulled down. There is a clasp to pull it together, but its placement is not very effective. I got a lot of compliments, but it drove me nuts throughout the day. Nice to rent and try out, but I won't be renting again.

Really cute skirt & pockets!
This skirt is really cute and comfortable! The elastic is only in the back, so it looks more classy in the front, but doesn't sacrifice the comfort factor. It is lined but is breathable and not too poofy. It has pockets, which is nice, and the length worked well for me. Because of the elastic, you can potentially size down for a bit more fitted look.

Not what I expected
I was really excited about this dress and liked the pattern. The fit was strange- tight in the arms, neck, and waist, but then extra big in the chest to where it poofed out as you walked around. It is also extremely low-cut, so might not be appropriate for work without something underneath. The dress kept getting pushed up as well, so a length that was okay would become too short. The unexpected thing though was that for a fabric that felt so light when you put it on, when you stepped outside in the heat, there's no breathability and it was extremely hot to be in. I ended up extremely sweaty just walking from the parking lot, and it's not even that hot yet!

Love this bag!
I had seen this bag in the store and had concerns about its functionality. When I saw it here, I knew I had to rent it. It is such a functional handbag and I have used it everyday since! I can fit all of my essentials and it can be dressed up or down. The different chains work out really well and I love the creamy beige-ish color, which seems to match with everything. I have gotten lots of compliments on it. I couldn't bear to send it back, so I bought it!

Proportions & colors are off
The background of this dress's pattern is actually orange. It is big and it makes you look larger than you actually are with the sleeves and the poofiness of the bottom. Maybe sizing down would help.

This dress is so beautiful in person. The corseting at the top makes everything look slimmer and the bottom is just enough to make it look really classy. I love the pattern and it has pockets! Definitely rent!

It was a cute pattern and I really liked the texture of the material. However, it was really large and shapeless. Strangely, the arms were small. Only saving grace was that it had pockets.

Really Cute Dress
I don't usually like shirt dresses as they always seem to gap across my chest. I didn't have that problem with this dress. It's more of a red-ish, bright pink, and the only issue I had with it is that it wrinkles easily. It is a really versatile dress, can be dressed up for the office or going to brunch, or dressed down for a regular day out shopping.

Really Small!
Even though I got my regular size, I could barely get it over my knees, much less my thighs. Had to check the tag to make sure I got the right size. Would have needed to size up several sizes to even have a chance of it fitting.

Awkward Bag, Pretty Color
Unfortunately, I really didn't like this handbag. Since this was the first bag I had from this brand, unfortunately, I don't think I'll be getting another. The material had a strange consistency, & it seemed like it was already coming apart, even though it still had the plastic on the clasp. The color is really pretty, but it was hard to access anything in the handbag. It was awkward taking things in & out as the pockets were really stiff & the magnets got in the way from getting anything out of the front pocket. I would have to take the bag off of my shoulder to access anything. For all of this, I only used it once. Very disappointed!

Fun Handbag for the Summer
It is such a great handbag! It fits my daily essentials, with most things fitting in the main section, & my smaller phone, cash, & cards fitting in the smaller slots in the front and back pockets. It seems pretty sturdy, the magnet is strong, & the strap can be lengthened to fit as a short crossbody (19"). The measurements on the description here seem off though; based on my (probably slightly-off) measurements, the main compartment is 7.5" long by 3" deep by 5" tall. Enjoy it so much that I bought it the second I got a deal! :)
