Comfortable Fall Dress
This dress ran somewhat on the large side, so if between sizes, sizing down is recommended. This dress was very comfortable and perfectly suited for the outside auction we attended. I love Trina Turk, and this dress did not disappoint.

Beautiful Gold Detail on classic Lilly
This dress was somewhat short, and if I had to lean one way or another, I would say it ran somewhat small. I got tons of compliments throughout the night though, and the dress was comfortable.

In My Top 5 RTR to date
This dress runs narrow in the hips, but that was great for me, because I have narrow hips. The neckline was incredibly flattering-not too low, but still somewhat flirty. The 2 fit really well too, but this girl was planning on eating, and the size 2 that came in had deodorant marks or something near the hem. I would rent this dress again, using the 4 because it was overall a great fit, comfortable, and the color is fantastic. I wouldn't really use the pockets, but only because I wouldn't want them to stick out and mess up the line of the dress.

Easter Brunch
This was one of my favorite RTR dresses. I wore it for brunch on Easter, and it was a perfect fit. Very comfortable and loose in the waist, but still structured enough to look pulled together. The sleeves were really cute and the length was perfect. I would actually rent this one again!

Classic Easter/Spring Dress
I rented two dresses and wound up going with the other one, so didn't wear this one. The dress was comfortable, and would be a cute spring dress for showers, weddings, or any other spring event. The only thing I noticed is that it was a tad tight at the halter top around the arms-may just be me though! Overall true to size and a cute conservative dress

Sparkly and Fun!
There wasn't too much difference between the small and medium in this dress-the neckline was a little loose, even with the small, but everywhere else fit true to size. Ended up with the small because it was just tight enough to show off some curve! Loved this dress!

Loved the cape!
This was a cute, classy dress with the cape as an added twist! Great color, leaning more toward the green side of peacock. I wore it with pewter heels, and got several compliments on it. Best part was the back. If possible, an updo would really probably be best with it, but I wore my hair down.

Big and Glitzy
These earrings were heavier than I had expected, and I thought they may be too blingy, but they went well with the sequined dress I wore.

Gorgeous color and cut!
This dress was very fitted in the waist, and bunched just a tad in the back. The zipper also sticks a little where the seam is at the waist, but once on, it was very comfortable and flattering! Got lots of compliments on this one, and would even wear this one again!

Runs large, but very pretty -didn't get to wear
This dress was really classy and the neckline was gorgeous, but it ran way too big to wear. Unfortunately, I ordered a size up from what I normally wear, and had to pull one from my own closet for this event. Gorgeous dress, just runs big!

Backup Earrings
Great dangly earrings to dress up your outfit. These weren't the ones I rented, but were sent as a backup, and I loved them-another RTR win!

Backup sent by RTR
This dress was very form-fitting and somewhat low-cut, but I loved the way it looked so much that I almost wore it instead of the dress I rented. The metallic fabric was thick, and the leather piping was an awesome detail! It was sent by RTR because they didn't have the backup size in the dress I ordered, and I just may find a reason to rent this one for something else!

Got TONS of compliments on this dress!!
I got this dress to wear to a plantation wedding, and it was perfect! Fit was a little loose in the waist, but with all the eating we did, this wasn't a bad thing!! I got so many compliments on this dress. Gone high-low hem was great-the first time I've worn one, and what a great detail! Perfect dress for wedding!

First RTR Rental
This dress fit pretty true to size. The 6 fit like a glove, but I went with the 8, because there really wasn't too much difference except for in the bust area, and I felt more comfortable with the extra room. The blue is a very pretty, shiny color and looks much prettier in person than online. Got tons of compliments, and dress was very comfortable, which is important to me! I'm not usually big on halter necklines, but this one was just enough to not make me feel like a sausage-loved this dress!

Perfect bling for my dress!
These earrings were larger than I thought they would be, but were perfect for the blue dress I wore to an awards dinner. I usually wouldn't go for something this flashy, but they were noticeable enough to add to my dress instead of taking away from it. Perfect!!
