I wish I could keep this
I wore this when I speaking at a client offsite and I just felt so polished yet comfortable. I got compliments everywehre I went even though it's just a black dress. It's so flattering on my postpartum belly. I felt gorgeous! I will be eyeing a sale fo this one!

Felt gorgeous
I loved tbis skirt and felt gorgeous and flowy in it. I got lots of compliments. One thing to keep in mind is that it’s tough to tuck stuff in because the lines show quite prominently so I did a little faux tuck into the bra and once wore it with a little crop. At 5’4 and 170, I do find the XL to be a bit big but not sure if the L would have been too tight and unflattering.

I liked it
I wore this for a date with my husband. Looked great standing up but was tight in the ribs when I sat. I do usually like a puffy sleeve but felt myself wanting less puff on these. Short but not too short.

Easy, comfortable style
I wore this skirt a bunch and got complients every time. I loved how easy it was to style with lots of different tops and how comfortable it was. I felt so stylish and it hid my postpartum belly well. It was a pinch tight in the waist (I have 33" waist) - not so tight that it was uncomfortable but caused a little bulging. I just wore it a little bit unzipped with a bloused out shirt so you couldn't tell. If it goes on sale, I'll be buying it.

Unique print
I enjoyed the top but definitely had to wear a cami underneath. I also thought it came up a little short in the front but perhaps I could have fixed that by ordering a size up.

Way too small in the bust
This would have been too small in the bust pre-pregnancy but was laughable during pregnancy. This really didn't look to accommodate the growing breasts of someone who is pregnant.

Compliments but not super flattering
Even though I got a lot of compliments on this, I wouldn't say it was the most flattering for my growing bump. I overall felt large as opposed to pregnant. It does have a gorgeous color and unique cut so I still ended up wearing it a few times. Warning: super see through.

Not great for pregnancy
The color and print were nice but I didn't end up wearing this. It was advertised as bump friendly but I found it incredibly unflattering given where it was cut. It did fit the bump but looked quite strange.

I so wanted to keep it
I felt casually chic in this and some super high-waisted jeans. I feel like it looked expensive and fell well on me. Keep in mind that it is very cropped so you need to either feel comfy with showing midsection or go super high-waisted on the bottom. I didn't try it but I bet it would look cute over a black dress too.

So feminine and fun
I loved this dress - compliments at every corner. I felt like dynamite in it. I was worried about the no bra situation but it was fine since it was tight enough through the chest. Also, POCKETS! It was a little tight for me around the rib cage so I didn't wear it for times I'd be sitting a lot (like a meal).

Usually a Medium, wore a L
I rented this so I could have a little breezy skirt to wear in our trip to DisneyWorld. I didn't end up bringing it because it wasn't a cotton-y fabric like I had expected. It was still cute but just not for hot Disney days. Also, I usually wear an 8 but I rented the XL and it fit fine. It was a pinch big but I think a size down would have dug In.

Tight shoulders and arms
Like others have said, the shoulders and arms are so tight thay you can't really lift your arms. I wore this for a virtual presentation but definitely wouldn't have been able to use it for a real life presentation due the restriction of movement.

A little Bulky
I wore this a few times and always got compliments but I found it bulky in the way that it made me loom a bit larger. Also, I found the sleeves to be hard to fit into my jacket. I will say, the fabric was super soft and warm.

Favorite
This was easy to throw in and look chic but also comfy. I almost kept it but sweaters can't be worn for very long here in Texas so I figured I could Always rent again next year if I wanted.

Runs small
I saw that it runs small so I sized up but I still didn't end up wearing it. It technically fit but wasn't flattering because it was just super tight.

Not flattering on me
I did not end up wearing this as it gave me a weird camel toe situation. It felt a little short along the torso - thus the unfortunate bunching.

Colors are superb
I loved this top with a high waisted skirt/jeans/pants. The color was awesome and the fit was flattering. I found the space in front a little too revealing so I simply looped one of the ties through it and it did the trick.

This physically fit but was not flattering at all on my body. Emphasized the pooch and the fabric was not forgiving.
