Gives the feel of an old English college professor
I love pieces that are inspired by traditionally masculine pieces but still flattering on a female form- this fits the bill! There are shoulder pads (although I didn't find them to extreme) so if that's not your thing be aware. I belted it the first time I wore it but actually loved it open over a turtle neck or button up. Also wore as a top over tights with thigh high boots for a dinner date. Definitely a piece I wanted to keep.

Great Casual Sweater
Color was gorgeous, style was unique and flattering. I loved the full sleeves. I wore this a few times, it looked great fully tucked into high waisted bell bottoms. Was warm. A little loose at the neckline and it fell further on my shoulders than I would like a few times. I would size down if I rented again.

Cute but very small
Skirt was quality fabric and looked cute but I couldn't zipper over the waistband. I sized up but it was still small- plus the bulk of the waistband made the zipper tricky. The front of the skirt sat oddly because of all the seams but that may have also been due to fit. May try again in a larger size.

Chic fall jacket
This photo does not do this jacket justice, it was absolutely gorgeous on. I didn't want to give it up. Very sophisticated and paired well with both casual and dressy outfits. Good for fall temps but would definitely be chilly for winter. I only with there was a tie on the outside to keep it closed (small ties inside but they don't keep the jacket all the way closed and I didn't like the way they looked). Received endless compliments.

Comfy and Elegant
Tempted to buy these pants. They were a comfortable fit and a thick material that made them suitable for very cold fall temps in NYC. Could also easily fit a pair of leggings underneath without them being noticeable. I received so many compliments. Paired well with a fitted tee, button up blouse, satin cami, and a turtleneck.

Photographs beautifully!
Not my personal style to wear out but I rented this for photos with a friend. It looked amazing on her, fit well (she tends to be a zero though so it may run a bit small) and it photographed so beautifully. It was really a stunning dress and would perfect for a formal event. Lovely and striking yet still conservative.

Beautiful cut and color!
Loved this shirt!!! This is one I wish I could keep. Absolutely gorgeous, deep, rich color. Nice quality fabrics, and the cut was very flattering. I often left the neck untied and it worked great. Wore it out to lunch with friends, to work, and on a few casual days paired with jeans. A++

Very extra but warm
I love light pinks so got this for a weekend away visiting a friend. It is SOOO warm. And while it is pretty, I prefer an understated style and this was a bit much. My boyfriend thought I liked it and bought it for me but I rarely wear it since it always feels like too much. If you have a bold, in your face style though, it would be perfect. Warm, comfy, and functional pockets!

Statement earrings without being in your face
I paired these with a high Lacey neckline and well as a few simple outfits for work. They added a bit of sparkle and complexity to the outfit. They were unique and pretty but accented the outfit rather than overpowering it. They do catch on everything though- the lace dress, a cardigan I wore, even my hair got tangled in them at times.

Cute dainty little necklace
I struggle to find necklaces I like that are dainty and understated but still unique and purposeful but I liked this one. It hung at a nice height and the curved bar (rather than a regular necklace style) paired nicely with the scoop neckline of the little black dress I was wearing (also from RTR)

Perfect for showing off a lot of leg
I wore this out to a burlesque show date it fit beautiful, did not tug anywhere (I'm very straight so often pieces are tight on my waist) and the material was quality. Be aware, this piece is verrrrry short. I like to highlight my legs so I thought the high neck and sleeves were a great balance for that but I know for some it would still be too short. I paired with drop earrings that I also got from RTR and a pop of color in the shoe.

Pretty and comfy
Gorgeous bright color without being overwhelming. Great quality of material, light, breathable, airy. Comfy for all day wear. I didn't have a plan on mind when I rented this dress but I wore it to graduation (I'm a teacher), then out to happy hour at a bar by the beach, and then after undoing a few buttons at the bottom I wore it to the city for impromptu club hopping. While it wouldn't be my first choice for a night out it worked fine. I received plenty of complements.

Better as a cardigan!
I wore this piece both as a dress (which was ok) but I found it to be a bit thin so I tried it as a top layer of jeans and tank tops and crop tops and LOVED it. Had people randomly stop me in the store to ask where I got it. The light fabric means it catches the wind beautifully and looks amazing when you walk (when opened). One of the pieces I wish I could keep forever.
