Much lighter than the picture
These jeans are good everyday medium blue jeans, but they are not navy (or at least the pair I received was not or had faded). They are considerably longer than the other 2 J brand maternity jeans I rented from RTR - I'm 5'7" and they bunch at the bottoms so I'll have to roll them 2". The fit was good and they didn't seem to stretch out at all. I did size down 1 size. I was just a little disappointed they were not as dark navy as the picture and description said.

Good casual maternity jeans
Good everyday jeans. They stretched out quickly so size down 1 or 2 sizes. I am a size 28 pregnant (my hips and thighs expand from my usual 27), but I ordered a 27. When I first put them on they were very tight in the thighs but quickly stretched. The waist is very comfortable for my 24 week belly. The length was perfect for me at 5'7". I like that the ankles were fitted and didn't stretch out.

Hybrid jean/pants - great maternity go-to
These pants are stitched like jeans but the material is a mix between jean and cotton pants. Great dark black material (not faded at all). Good for business casual or out. I'm 5'7" and the length was perfect. They sit pretty low and definitely size down 1 size. I'm usually a 27/4, but 28/6 when pregnant thanks to my thighs and hips, and the 27s fit great at 24wks.

Navy & Tan sweater - perfect piece for winter/spring
I ordered this for everyday wear as winter transitions to spring. Great piece and I may just have to keep it. Sweater is thicker but not too winter thanks to the cotton blend. Definitely runs a little larger so size down. I'm 24 wks pregnant and wore a small (my usual size but I usually wear a Medium when pregnant). The jeans in the pic are also RTR (J brand maternity size 27).

Cute design on the hanger, looked like a tent on
I wanted to love this top: the color is a nice deep burgundy, and the lace pleating detail is cute. However, the fit was tough. The neck was really tight and it seemed to flow straight out from there, no darts or fitting at the chest, just a big tent. It was also an odd length - not short or long. I'm 20 weeks pregnant but it would have looked like a tent even if I didn't have a baby bump. The lace details are all see-through which is good to know if you are wearing it for something more conservative.

Memorable top - versatile
I wore this to a work conference with a red statement necklace, black pats and heels at 20 weeks pregnant. It's super comfortable and doesn't wrinkle, big pluses for a long day. I received lots of compliments and felt real good in it. It could easily be worn with tight jeans or leggings too for a more casual look. Definitely a great shirt for both non maternity and maternity wear. Please note: the bottom of this top is voluminous and fairly long - it's supposed to be! When I stood still, I felt a little like I was wearing a tent but the shirt moves really well and looks good in a dramatic way when you are moving. Important for sizing : it's on the small side through the shoulders and chest - I am usually a size small (34B/C) when not pregnant and I think I would have still need a medium if I order post-pregnancy. Also, I'm 5'7", if you are considerably shorter than that, it might feel too long.

Just enough glitz
This was the perfect holiday party dress! I loved the silver-blue shimmer in the fabric, the full skirt, the small bow detail and the open back. I received tons of compliments. I will strongly agree with other reviews that the neckline is much more plunging than it looks on the RTR model. Anyone wearing this dress will want to have a NuBra, fashion tape and safety pins on hand. I still loved wearing it, but had to be careful to keep pulling the dress up and standing up straight even with a safety pin and tape. The dress seems fairly true to size or slightly larger; however it has an odd slanted waistline with no stretch that went right over my larger than average rib cage, so I could not have gone any smaller than a Size S.

Beautiful lace and beading
I loved this romper because it's so unique and elegant. The navy lace overlay and beading are beautiful - perfect for the holidays. I thought that it fit very true to size overall. Unfortunately, you must have a longer torso than I do to wear it. My legs are long and I have a shorter torso, so the crotch was about 1.5-2 inches too long. Because of the lace and beading, there was no way to pin it up at the shoulders to fix the issue, so ultimately I did not wear it. Everything else was nearly perfect: length hit at my ankles; waist fit like a glove and I am slim but not narrow waisted; hips fit snug but well but I don't have a lot of curve; chest was slightly loose so I would not recommend for A or small B cup.
