A sophisticated and flattering surprise!
I rented this dress not expecting much, but it ended up being super flattering and comfortable. The color was lovely and didn't feel drab at all. It was a little big up top, mostly when I sat down. Would definitely rent again!

Beware: NOT 100% cotton
I ordered this for hot summer days thinking the cotton would be nice and cool, except the whole dress is lined with a polyester lining! Also the lining was so long that it extended past the outer layer of the dress when I took it out of the bag. Maybe with some steaming or pressing it would have been covered, but I was nervous that it would start showing again as I wore it. I never ended up wearing it out of the house.

Loved the set together and separately
So cute that I considered buying them! I also wore the top with black pants.

Matching set
This was a super cute set, and I also wore the pants on their own. They did need a good steam, and they definitely wrinkled while I had them on too. Loved that they were only partially lined at the top so that they weren't see through, but also good for hot weather

Cute and lightweight
Normally I'd be worried about this thin a fabric on such a drapey cut being too clingy, but I actually found the cut quite flattering. Nice and comfy for summer days

Should have listened about the belt
I didn't read the reviews about the weird thin belt until after I rented. It's weird! If I had purchased these, I definitely would have cut it off. They ran a bit big especially in the waist.

HEAVY (but not that warm)
I didn't end up taking this on the NYC trip I had planned to because the coat would have been heavy to carry. It's definitely cool though!

If you're looking for a bright pop...
This was a VERY bright orange. But it was a fun accent for a spring day and I got a ton of compliments, especially on the color. I paired it with a floral maxi. I think paired with the wrong thing, it could read more like a high-visibility safety orange.

Painters smock and no bralette
After reading so many reviews talking about the fit of the attached bralette for this shirt, I was shocked when mine arrived without one! I wanted to make the shirt work, but regardless of what I tried it with, it just looked like an oversized painter's smock.

Fun for vacation!
I wore this for vacation in Guatemala and it was super comfy and cute. The sleeves are a bit extreme for my taste but I got used to having wings LOL!

Comfy and cute
This is super loose and flowy, so very comfortable even on hotter days. I thought it was a little frumpy/traditional looking but I did get a few compliments.

Hoping for something warmer
It feels heavy when you pick it up, but I didn't find it as warm as some other coats I own. I wore it on cold days in New England and it didn't keep me as warm as I would have liked.

Quirky and flirty
This was such a fun piece. A little sexy because of the sheerness, but combined with the fun pasta print. Wore it with a black tank underneath.

It's amazing. Just rent it!
I rented this on a whim for date night and it exceeded my expectations. The zipper is a little tricky but I mastered it with some practice. It's soft and comfortable and flattering. And pockets!

So cute and comfortable!
Wore this to a casual brunch with a friend on a hot day. The elastic waist and loose cotton made it super comfy. I could see dressing it up for a date night too. As others have mentioned, there are a lot of buttons to undo, and that along with having to retie the belt means bathroom visits can take a while. It was worth it!

Runs large in the waist
Even after sizing down to the 26, the waist was still way too large (but it was starting to get snug in the hips). I didn't end up wearing it.

Fun and versatile statement piece for spring
These pants are a fun piece that made me feel like spring had arrived even if it was running a bit behind. They are easy to dress up or down. I wore them with a simple tee, sweater, and oxfords but also dressed them up for work with a tucked in, form-fitting black blouse, tights and boots. I didn't find the width as overwhelming as shown in the model photo.

Comfortable and elegant
Great look for a date night with my husband. As other reviewers have stated though, it is short! Not short enough to really look cropped, just short. I am 5'8" and had to wear flats. Also the cut on the arm holes is high. Even the straps on a racerback tended to peek out at times.

A work of art!
This dress has a ton of subtle detail that is stunning. Someone complimented it as looking like a work of art. I wore it to dinner with heels on a warmer night and then to work with tights, boots, and a blazer. The opening in the back and the high cut of the armholes made bra choice a little trickier than I expected. I would definitely rent it again!

Cute and versatile!
I wore this three or four times and probably would have worn it again if it wasn't at the point where it needed to be cleaned! I wore it out to dinner, to work, and for a more casual day in the park. I got compliments on it every time. The fit is flattering and the details at the bust are really unique and interesting.

Not for a smaller chest!
I found the chest to be huge! (And I am a C cup, so not super flat chested.) Even with a cami underneath it looked baggy and kind of awkward. I didn't end up wearing it but I can see how it would be cute on someone who could fill out the top more. I said true to size because the arms, waist and skirt seemed to fit right.

More special than a plain blazer
The embroidery and details really made this stand out. It worked well as a rental because I can see not wanting to wear it too often because of the pattern being memorable. I wore it with pants and a simple white top for work, but I can also see dressing it down with jeans or pairing it with a skirt. It is definitely cropped short!
