Too Big Overall
I'm usually a 27 or even a 28 in jeans, but the size 27 was too big around my waist/butt and baggy on my things. Most "ankle-length" jeans are full length on me–I'm 5'2", but these were too long and needed to be rolled up. On the plus size, the fabric was substantial and soft, and the color was a nice medium blue. I'm sorry they didn't fit.

Perfect dress
I absolutely loved this dress. The material was stretchy and followed the shape of my body without being clingy, and the result was slimming and flattering. The neckline is not revealing but not obviously modest. It's conservative without being dowdy. On me, 5'2," it was midi length, which I find preferable to knee length. It was a perfect choice for a Christmas Eve dinner at a fine dining restaurant.

Elegant but understated blouse
This is truly one of these pieces that can easily go from day to night. On one hand, it's just a simple black top. On the other, the ties on the ¾ length sleeves and the boatneck elevate its look out of the everyday. It fit me perfectly.

Cozy, easy to wear cardigan
Oversized and cozy, this is a fun cardi to wear for an everyday look. Kind of big and shapeless but that's the point. Loved the red pattern on the bottom.

Great sleeves but it runs big
I rented my usual size and I was swimming in it. The fit was loose and the statement sleeves (which I loved) were huge, and all in all, there was just too much fabric for my frame. The fabric has nice drape, and the color is a beautiful dark green, so I'm sorry this blouse didn't work for me

Love it!
Adorable everyday sweatshirt/sweater that's comfortable, wearable, and low-key trendy. I rented a size larger than usual and it was a good fit for me so I think it must run small. I wore this for errands, out to lunch and dinner and just around the house. I may end up keeping it.

Fun faux fur
Super-cute coat. Fun to wear it. It doesn't have any real buttons, just hooks, so I imagine it's not warm enough for real winter weather, but it was fine for Southern California evenings. It wasn't too big or long for me as a petite.

Beautiful sweater but not right for me
I really wanted to love this sweater. It's really well made, and the colors are vibrant. The fabric is soft, and I loved the styling, especially the touch of the gold buttons up the side. However, I prefer wearing sweaters with a looser, more casual fit. If I rent this again, I'll try sizing up.

Traditional wool coat with a twist
Unfortunately, I accidentally ordered a size too big and was unable to wear it. The M was so big on me that if I ordered it again I would size down to XS. As for the style, it's a really nice-looking traditional wool coat. The contrasting collar detail gives it a modern twist. The material is thin and unlined, and I don't think it would be warm enough for very cold weather.

Cute, Trendy Jacket
I loved the jacket's tweed/faux fur combo, however it ran small. I'm usually either 4 or 6; I ordered 6 and it was almost too tight to zip up. Other than that, the jacket is cute and very fun to wear.

Liked, did not love.
These pants were OK, but not perfect. The fabric is nice and drapey, and the high waist was flattering. They were little too long and a little too baggy on me, but were overall not that bad. Because of the high waist and bagginess, they looked better with a shorter, more form-fitting top.

Didn't work on me
I really wanted to like this blouse, but but it didn't look right on me. It was form fitting (and not too tight) around the chest, but the flounce on the bottom was too much fabric on me. It would probably work on someone taller.

Too low cut
On the model this looks like a conservative dress, and I was really surprised to discover how low cut this actually is, because it's not so on the model. Besides being low cut, the top gaped open, and revealed too much bra and cleavage, and could only be worn with a camisole which, for me, ruined the look of the dress. Otherwise, the dress fit well in length (although longer than on the model) and around the waist. The sleeves were too long but not an issue. The fabric, although polyester, was silky and attractive.

I love these comfy pants!
These pants are extremely comfortable and would be great for travel. The fabric is pretty light but still substantial. But probably not warm enough for people who live where it gets cold. The small fit me well, (although the butt was a bit baggy) and they're still above-the-ankle length on me. They're versatile and can be dressed up or down. I wore them to a nice restaurant and also out running errands. I would have kept them except they're $$$.

Ran Big on Me. Disappointed.
I really wanted to like this, but it fit me oddly. Size 4 usually is the smallest I go, but I could have sized down to a 2 and felt better in it. The dress felt billowy all over, with the puffy sleeves, the puffy top and the flowy wrap. (Although the wrap felt secure, I would have worn it with tights and a camisole just in case.) It was a little too long for me too. Beautiful dress but sadly not for me.

A winner!
This top was a little out of my comfort zone, but I ended up really liking it. I usually don't wear ruffles or high collars but I decided to take a chance, because that's one of the advantages of RTR. It fit me well, and was not tight on the chest as I had feared. The ruffle effect was subtle, and helped to disguise my tummy trouble spot. I dressed it down with jeans and sneakers, but it could easily be dressed up. The print is sophisticated and the fabric has a nice, heavy feel. A winner!

Size down
It's a very pretty top, but I wish I had paid attention to the other reviews which said to size down. I got the 38/6 because I was concerned about French sizing, and I was swimming in it. Even if I'd gotten the 36/4 it would have run large, and probably would have looked a lot better on.

Comfortable, everyday jeans
I'm usually anywhere between 27-29, depending on the brand and cut. The 28 fit me. They were comfortable, but not that flattering. Maybe because of the button fly, they didn't hold me in around the tummy, even though they're high waisted. Also, the cut and color give them a casual look. I decided to send them back after a couple of wears.

Pretty dress but too small
This is a very pretty, feminine dress. It flows beautifully, and the fabric is soft, with subtle metallic thread running through it. Even though I'm petite, it didn't turn into a maxi dress. It's fully lined so it's not sheer. However, it runs small. The waist/rib area was somewhat tight, but it fit. The big problem for me was the chest. It was low cut and super tight, and I was overflowing. Not the look I was going for! I think this dress would work for someone very slender with a B cup or less.
