Perfect Bachelorette Wear
Tight fit, keeps you snug and sucked in all night long. I took a bit of a risk with the XS but the thickness and stretch of the fabric made this dress pretty forgiving... but it was tight. Overall very happy with the dress and would recommend it. I particularly liked the length, sexy dress without worrying about things creeping up too far.

Fun & Flirty
Couldn't wear a traditional bra with this, but it was a fun dress to wear for a simple night out. The open back made the size forgiving. Nice thick fabric.

Perfect for transitioning out of winter wardrobe
The sweater is enough to keep warm, but the sleeveless and open sided detail made it feel appropriate to wear as snow was melting and the days are getting a bit warmer. The sweater is definitely large, I read reviews and wanted to do an XS but it wasn't available, so with my unlimited I took the gamble on the S. While it was large, the style was supposed to be oversized, so I didn't feel like the sizing mattered too much. Very cool and fun piece to spice up the work week.

Comfy, Warm, Rock Star
I got this vest with unlimited, not sure if I could pull it off but knowing I just had to try. After putting it on for the first time I was still hesitant, you stand out when you where this piece. However, I fell in love with it. It was so warm, and I felt like a rockstar wearing it. I couldn't stop wearing it, and really wanted to keep it. It's super chunky, so I tried to style it with sleeker items to balance it. One of my favorite pieces I've rented so far.

Perfectly cool.
I thought this fit great, and for a zero, I was surprised I didn't have any issues with the shoulders being slightly tight. The gathered cloth waist caused the bottom of the jacket to ride up and sit on my natural waist, which I kind of loved because it gave the jacket the baggy feel while emphasizing my shape. The leather has a bit of a strong smell to it, but that died down once I had it out of the bag for a couple days. I wanted to keep this forever.

Classic and comfy
It is supposed to fit a little large, which is what makes it look so chic when paired with skinnys and a heel. I got compliments on this all day long, and would rent again in a heart beat. The sleeves are pretty long, but I think that is also part of the look.

Comfortable and professional
I wore this for work, and loved the fit and look. It was hard to notice in the photo that there is actually gray in this as well, which I loved. The sleeves have the option to roll up and secure with a tie, that hangs a bit long and can peak out of the sleeves if you are choosing to wear the sleeves down. Overall I really liked the shirt, until it came to taking it off. I'm a bit bigger in the chest and have broad shoulders for my size, so it was a bit of a struggle to take off, which was surprising because it went on easily. A size up would have been to baggy on me, and this size was a bit too tight in the shoulders to justify renting again.

Sexy, classy, fit like a glove.
The neckline is very low cut. I used what I refer to as 'Sticky Boobs' the self adhering backless, strapless bra. I placed them then had to replace them lower (to an awkward degree) to not show, in hindsight the dress is tight enough with just enough thickness I probably could have gone without anything. While it fit just about perfectly, any tighter and it wouldn't have worked. There isn't much give to the strap across the back and the zipper in back doesn't have a hook and eye at the top, which caused it to creep down ever so slightly once or twice in the night. Overall, it was gorgeous, I wore it for valentines day, which also happened to be to celebrate getting engaged the night before. I'd rent again, it was just stunning. Very sexy, but the length and cut made it feel classy as well.

Surprisingly versatile!
First wore this for work. The arms were a little too slim to wear with a long sleeve button up underneath, but worked perfectly and comfortable with a cap sleeve shirt. I paired with a long wide leg dark jean, which was an easy and stylish way to dress down a metallic jacket for work. I got a lot of compliments on the outfit. Later in the week I wore it with a sexy red dress for valentines day to a jazz club. It has no clasp to close, so you have to be comfortable with it hanging open. I found it to be perfectly versatile and fun. I would definitely rent this again.

Great for cold.
I wore this on a very cold winter night, but stayed relatively comfortable. The fit was good, aside from it being a little tight in the arms and bust. The biggest downside to the dress, for me, was the fabric. I have some issues with polyester and acrylic type fabrics, and this dress did not agree with my skin. For that reason, and that reason only, I wouldn't rent it again.

Professional with a twist.
The color of this jacket is amazing. It is dark enough that you aren't screaming your presence, but unique enough to stand out. The cut and detailing give it a bit of edge. I opted to wear with a pair of black skinny jeans with a bit of flair of their own to keep it casual, but play into the edginess. The size was perfect, if a had done a size down I think it would have been tight in the shoulders and been too tight in the chest when hooked close. I received lots of compliments, highly recommend.

Comfortable and edgy piece to spice up the day.
Loved wearing this vest. I wore it with a white long sleeve shirt and skinny jeans with a high heeled boot. If I rented again I would probably opt for the XS. The bagginess in the vest causes the belt to sag when buckled, and I think a smaller size that had less bag around the hips would keep the belt from sagging or pulling in the ends of the vest. That is probably just me being picky though, because I would rent this again in a heartbeat. It was cool and relaxed, but sexy when paired with a great heel.
