Very boxy- a little too box?
I think that this pattern is very unique and eclectic. I loved pairing the pants and jacket together. I did feel like the denim was super stiff- which I love because it gives me a sense of quality. However, stiffness also requires breaking in… It is a really fun fit, and I definitely recommend, just know that there isn’t any stretch and the denim is very stiff. Additionally, with the jacket, it has a very boxy and masculine fit. I feel like going down a size would make it feel too small, but your true size feels like there is just too much fabric

Mixed feelings
Love and dislike these pants at the same time. The blue in the pant makes it hard to pair with other items, but I love that it makes the pants different. I love the style and cut of the pants- I think it is super flattering. I did go up a size for the pants to fit over my butt- which it did, but it made the button pull while having a decent sized waist gap in the back. I do really like these pants, they are very comfortable and make me appear super tall.

Loved the pattern, not the fit
Ok, so my butt is not that large, but it’s not flat. I went up a size to take into consideration that some designers to no account for any curves- at all. These are not the pants for you if you have any curves, unless you would like to attempt going up two sizes. I love velvet, I liked this pattern and style of pant, but the fit was stiff over all.

They aren’t lying about the clasp
Love this dress! It has such a 60’s charm, but the neck clasp won’t stay shut. I had multiple people try at work, while going out- nothing. The clasp doesn’t stay closed. This is definitely a flaw in the dress design. Would totally purchase if it wasn’t for the clasp.

Everyone loved it on me but me
The dress is cute, but definitely not my go to style. I will say the seams did not lay in the correct position, indicating that I probably should have sized down, but I loved the way the current size fell on my body. I received compliments the entire day from literally everyone. So I would definitely recommend it, but stick with your normal size instead of sizing up. And if you like this style, you’ll love this dress and receive so many compliments

Go up a size if you’re planning on wearing sleeves
I love this jacket, I bought it. However, I should have sized up. It is the perfect jacket in short sleeves and tanks, but as soon as I put on a sweater, it is tight in my armpits. I will say, this is the warmest jacket ever, and I am so obsessed

This skirt is everything. One, it’s so warm and comfortable. Two, I get compliments every time I wear it. Three, it just feels like a perfect staple piece. Would definitely recommend you renting

Just no.
Oh my gosh. I was so excited for this dress! It looked like a 60’s Twiggy dress gone modern. Unfortunately, it was so unflattering and not very comfortable. The turtle neck was tight, the dress was simultaneously tight and loose, and it was just unflattering

Amazing dress and highlights your curves
I love this dress. Contemplated even purchasing the dress. It hugs your curves despite the dress not being stretchy. I want to reiterate, it is not stretchy. It’s like a 90’s slip dress goes modern.

Obsessed
I definitely held onto these while exchanging other items… I am obsessed. These pants look so good with boots and heels. It’s definitely a vibe and I’m here for it. The pants are not stretchy, they are more along the lines of 100% cotton jeans. They are high waisted, which I love, with a singular button and zipper fly. (:

Fits perfectly over gals with more hip/butt
I have wider hips and a butt that have been making skirts a real pain as of late. This skirt was amazing. It has a slight stretch to it so the fabric does not bunch over your hips and butt. I’ve ran into issues with my waist being a size 2, but fabric does not want to lay over my hips without bunching. I loved this skirt and wore it multiple times. The only thing I didn’t like was the pocket. One is for show- just a flap, no pocket. The other is a pocket and it is a decent size but cannot hold an iPhone. I feel like the pocket definitely took away from the skirt. I felt like it would have been cuter without. It wasn’t an item that received any compliments and I feel like it was due to a cargo look on leather. Very comfortable though!

I’m obsessed
This sweater is amazing. I absolutely love everything about it. It is definitely oversized- extremely oversized. Downside, it is itchy. The amount of compliments I’ve gotten on this sweater is insane- near a dozen a day. Love that it is funky and two toned.

Cute but not doesn’t fit right
I sized up to a small just because I’ve been doing so after being pregnant and wanting my stomach to not feel so exposed. To start the dress was incredibly long, I’m 5’4 and this dress was hitting the floor and would definitely need heels. The most upsetting part was that the top was too small and it’s as stitched not to expand. It was tight but not strangling around the neck. The bust was the worst part- it was like trying to fit into a sports bra a size or two too small. The girls were smooshed, the fabric did NOT stretch and it just looked horrible.

Does not fit if you have a butt/hipsters
This skirt fit perfect around my waist, but synched up around my hips and especially over my butt. My fiancé compared by to Austin Powers where he wears a metallic silver cloak and it Jets out from behind. Never wore it, had to return.

Not what I was expecting
This shirt was an immediate return and not wear. It had glitter on it- I was not expecting that. The shoulders didn’t stay up, they were too large and draped down. The armpit area was tight. Then it ended up being a belly shirt and not at all something that I could wear to work.

Definitely a rental that I’ve contemplated keeping. It is cute. It’s a combination of modest yet sexy. I love the open back while it being a long sleeve turtle neck. You can pair it with nearly everything

Love it but sheer
I loved this and so did my fiancé. My cons were that it is see through where the créame is. So your bra and underwear will be seen. It is more form fitting, where I wanted it to be slightly more boxy, but that could also just be my body type. It does so all aspect of your panty lines- from waist to butt. The pros were the two-tone and overall style

Loved but the hooks don’t stay closed and sheds like crazy!
I loved this sweater, a lot… however the clasps never stayed hooked. Thankfully I was wearing a bra or else I would have flashed people multiple times a day every day that I wore it… It is so, so cozy, but also sheds. You will find fuzz on your bra/shirt and pant/skirt/dress.

Large and doesn’t lay flat over boobs
This top was something I wanted to love, especially paired with the skirt, but it ran a bit large. Like a cropped Cosby sweater. The odd part is that it did not lay flat over my boobs. So once it went over my boobs, it stayed that distance away from my torso at all times. Just made me look a bit frumpy

Weird seem and pooching over the butt
I have mixed feeling about this skirt. The color, feel and warmth were everything. My fiancé loved the color and how it fit. I, however, am getting over pregnancy weight and this shows a lot of curves- especially over the tummy and hips, which I did not like at all. Additionally, I felt like I had my skirt on wrong because a there is a noticeable seam down the front? Tried turning it but there were seams on the sides and back. Lastly, the fabric pooched up between my waist and butt. There was just a lot of excess fabric and it wouldn’t lay flat.

Bright and cute
I absolutely love this, and plan to rent it again! I do think next time I may size down. There was a lot of extra fabric along the outside of my breasts. It was loose fitting and I really liked that, but may have been a bit too loose. There also wasn’t any compression around the chest areas so if you are going brakes, there isn’t any support. It is super cute though! I just paired it with shorts to wear to a baseball game, but I have a few ideas for the next time I rent this.

It’s funky but cute
It’s cute, it’s funky, it’s different, but it works! The color is a bit more yellow and electric than in the photo and it is definitely form fitting… I have some post pregnancy weight so I didn’t feel entirely confident in this dress due to how well it hugs every inch of your body. For how loose it looks, I wasn’t expecting that. However, I plan to pair a slouchy black sweater with this just to feel more confident. This dress does come with a slip underneath, something I was worried about. It looked sheer in the photo and I wanted to rent it first prior to wearing it back to work and it end up being see through. I am getting some wear out if it around the house. (: I am going to rent this again! I’ll re-review it then. It’s the edgy vibe that I was looking for and really met my expectations.
