White dress with a twist
Size down if you are between sizes. The dress has lots of room and it is easy to get in and out of (no zipper, straps are adjustable). Would be super cute on a beach vacation.

In person the dress is off white, has shoulder pads. Is a true wrap dress - would recommend wearing a slip

Fun dress for summer
Dress is trendy but didn't work well for my body shape (long torso, hourglass figure). Fabric is thicker than I expected. Not see through at all

Cute dress but as pictured
Loved the modern Jane Austen feel of this dress, but there is a hanger strap on the back that isn't pictured. I can't remove the strap and wear it as pictured.

Fancy dress
Loved trying this dress out ...figure hugging and professional. The thicker fabric meant the wrap stayed put (no adjusting during the middle of the day).

Average work dress
This dress just didn't wow me, felt frumpy. It was a little too short on my 5'7 frame.

Amazing and attention grabbing pants. They are very high waisted and slim fitting. I got all the compliments today. I wore these with denim heels, a plain white shirt and a red Kate Spade bucket bag.

Feel like Hugh Hefner
Fantastically fancy dress for the first warm day in awhile. I feel like a female Hugh Hefner (that's a good thing). I had trouble finding a bra that works - recommend pasties or wearing one that you won't mind showing off. Also recommend wearing a slip - the dress is clingy.

Classic with a twist
While other renters brought this dress to black tie events, I brought mine to work. I got a surprising amount of compliments given that navy is super classic. I wore this dress with navy heels and dangly earrings.

Channel your inner ballerina in this burgundy wrap top. I wore this over a slip dress and tights for a coffee date. This top is cropped so I think it would pair best with a dress rather than jeans.

Birthday lunch
Sassy skirt with high slits. You'd definitely need to wear tights for work. I felt very elegant and flirtatious attending a friend's birthday party then going on a date. I wore a black crew neck sweater, tall flat boots and red lipstick.

Valentines Day
Romantic dress for Valentine's Day. It is lower cut than I expected so I put a white shirt underneath for work. Think this dress would be better for warmer months with strappy sandals and delicate earrings.

Romantic blouse
Romantic blouse for work- I needed a camisole to keep it a professional. Wear it without a tank for a sexy date look. I paired it with a black pencil skirt and tall heeled boots. Think this would work well with ivory or dusty pink as well.

Weekend birthday celebration
Beautiful silk dress - I thought about wearing it to work, but found that it was too low cut in the front and there is a high slit at the front. You may need tights and a camisole to make it work in the workplace. My friend said it reminded her of Mardi Gras :-)

Romantic brunch dress
I felt like a flamenco dancer in this dress. It is elegantly romantic and the print remind me a bit of the '90s. I rented this dress after seeing all the Reformation dresses on instagram. The dress has a cut out in the back to keep it interesting. Bring the drama with long earrings, an updo and dark res lipstick.

Picture day at work
Wore this to get my office ID photo taken. Gorgeous dress that got lots of compliments - I usually dress conservatively for my job but it doesn't have to be boring. I spiced it up with red lipstick and strappy black patent shoes. Runs true to size with a little give, I might have been able to size down.

Subtly Scandalous Dress
I loved snuggling in this sweater dress over the holidays. It was fuzzy, warm but still fitted. Due to the laces on the bottom the dress shoes some thigh - not safe for work.

Beautiful print
Tanya Taylor knocks it out of the park with this beautiful, silk printed dress. It looks like a wrap but has a zipper and the front is fastened ... no need to wear a cami. With something so special you don't need to accessorize much... I wore black knee high boots and simple jewelry.

baby blue work bag
High quality work bag ... loved the pebbled leather and it still had the new bag smell. It fit my 11 inch laptop. The bag has a small pocket on the inside for a phone/keys but otherwise is very open. One thing that I didn't like is that I had to adjust the front flap... it wouldn't always snap on its own.

fun dress for night out
beautiful, strappy dress in spring's hottest color ... stand out in a sea of black. You need seamless underwear for this dress. the dress has hanger straps which get caught up in the slip and are frustrating- wish RTR would cut them off. Styling: I wore with nude strappy shoes and a plain gold bracelet. There is a lot going on with the dress, so keep accessories streamlined. Compliments: 1 Would I rent again?: maybe if I have a big event coming up.

Patterned work dress
Dresses like these are the reason I use RTR - it is so fun to borrow designer pieces with fun prints. The dress ran small, was missing the belt, and the zipper got stuck. Compliments received: 1 - kinda surprised it was so low, I liked the print. How to style it: I wore nude shoes and a pastel bag. I also think it would look cute under a blazer. Would I rent again: No

highlighter yellow work dress
Finally the weather is warm enough to wear this highlighter yellow dress. Conservative enough for work, but in a fun color and subtle ruffles - this is perfect for spring. I think this color is hard to pull off (I'm too pale) but couldn't resist. Compliments: 2 Styling: I paired this with a long pearl necklace, nude pumps and a white clutch. I think this dress would look great with pastel or light tan accessories as well. Would I rent again: No - the color is a bit off

Cute spring backpack
Fun bag for spring with beautiful floral details, but doesn't fit my laptop. Due to how the straps are set up, this is best worn as a backpack rather than as a handheld or shoulder bag. How to style: pastels and neutrals all the way! Compliments: 0 Would I rent again: Probably not, too many other pretty bags at RTR

Classic moto jacket - I'm 5'7 and this was small in the sleeves for me. There is a fun skull lining on the inside for some extra edge. I wasn't a huge fan of the non functional snaps. Compliments: 1 Would I rent again: No Styling: This is really versatile, I don't think you can go wrong here.

California beach dress
I rented this dress to wear in California on the beach. The material feels amazing on and I like the attention to detail. This dress is flowy I could have gone down another size if I needed to. If you button all of the buttons, the fit of the dress looks strange so I left a few undone. Compliments: 1 Would I rent again?: No How to style it: with a dress this long, I think some type of heel would look best

California Vacation
This dress looked a lot different on than in the pictures. The top secures with a snap which kept on popping open so I wore a bandeau. The front of the dress is also a wrap style so I would be careful wearing it on windy days. The back is quite low as well. Think this may work better with someone with a smaller bust. Compliments: 1 Would I rent again? No Styling suggestions: this dress is more revealing than it seems- choose your foundation garments carefully, think it would look great with a necklace.

floaty top for California
The top was cute, but didn't feel as special as other RTR pieces that I've tried. It was a little short on me. Compliments: 0 Would I rent again: No Styling suggestions: I wore it with dark jeans and Stan Smiths for a casual Cali vibe. Since it is so floaty on top, would recommend fitted jeans or a pencil skirt on bottom.

Colorful dress I tried out as part of RTR unlimited - the cutout at the front is lower than I expected and I had to layer with a cami. Would I rent again: No Compliments:0 Styling: I wore it with hair down and a neutral lip, but think this would look good with a bold lip as well.
