Awesome Ski Jacket, perfect level of warmth
Jacket was great for skiing- external and internal zippered pockets, warm with ventilation options, and stands out in a crowd. 2 things to keep in mind- the 4 fit me but I wish I'd sized up, it was tight but the only jacket available at the time. None of the zippers fit my ski pass (at 2 different mountains), which I thought was really strange.

Easy vacation top. Pack high waisted bottoms!
So easy to wear, loose and a little on the large side, but looks fine that way. Travels well and great for beach town day and evening. Just a tiny bit too cropped in the front for me- had to adjust the shirt forward a few times to feel comfortable.

Liked a lot but didn't love- great skirt but long shoulder straps
Nice material and metallic/shimmer effect. Straps were way too long (wear something over it!) Really pleased with how the dress hung and the feel of the fabric. The shoulder straps were so long- I pinned them over and the chest still fell so low. The top part of my bra cups kept showing by the armpits. I layered with a leather jacket and then with a sweater- both worked well, pretty versatile piece.

Funky and flattering- tough for the bathroom, though!
Amazing piece! Almost wore it by itself, which also fit well and looked nice, but it also looks cool layered. Buttons aren’t that difficult. Was super flattering for the waist but definitely less fitted in the butt and chest- didn’t have much issue with the top falling down though.

This dress fit like a glove!
Wore this to a very dressy wedding and fit right in, even though it looked less dressy online. The length of the lining is definitely short, but I felt comfortable and could dance the whole night. The fit was perfect- the straps stayed on, the bust stayed in place with no bra, and it is pretty structured dress. I ate 2 full meals (and dessert) without feeling like my stomach was showing too much through the material.

Second time renting, brought it on vacation
I wore this on vacation in 3 hot-climate countries. The fabric is so light weight (and not sheer, despite how it looks on the hanger). I worse this multiple times and felt comfortable to move around even with the leg slits and wrapped top. This is definitely a favorite piece of mine and I would recommend to rent for a weekend, vacation, brunch, or winery setting. I wouldn't wear to work.

Took this on vacation and wore it 3-4 times!
I wore this on multiple occasions during vacation- on a day of exploring, for a beach party, and to a dinner out. Pros: It's a super versatile piece and packs easily. Felt comfortable and casual but not out of place at the party. Pretty easy to get off and on to pee! Washed and ironed easily. The buttons were my favorite part. Cons: leg length was very long on me, I had to pin the length up for every wear except with ~3" heels. It is linen, so don't expect a perfectly crisp piece, it's best for casual events. The chest was large and low, I was super conscious when dancing that it gaped open a good amount.

Fit everything I needed for a wedding
Fit my phone, wallet, eye drops, a couple tampons... probably something else I'm forgetting... really well. Got the purse because it matched my outfit perfectly, really happy with it overall.

Beautiful but not practical for wear
These were great for photos, they went with my outfit (also RTR) and looked stunning. However, I had to take them off part way through the evening as the length hit right at my shoulders and would get "stuck" in my neck and shoulder crease. Not to mention they were (as I imagined) super heavy.

Perfect fit, wore day into night.
Wore this for a 2 part wedding, it was great for both day and night time, sitting and dancing. Fit: true to size, incredibly comfortable for sitting, standing, dancing. Didn't have to pull up the strap-less side very much. I was able to eat 3 full meals and still feel good in the dress, the stomach isn't snug enough that you could tell.

Great skirt, flattering and lightweight
This is a perfect piece for summer- light and flowy, easy to pair (I wore with a simple white tee), and the high waist is flattering. Some reviews say the skirt runs small and to size up, but if you want it to sit high on the waist (which it should, because of the skirt length), this was true to size on me. Received many compliments at work, and would wear this to other events as well.

Cute but tough to wear
Dress looks cute on, great sleeves and color. I could've used an extra 1-2 buttons at the bottom , though, as the dress was open to a pretty high point in the front. If I didn't keep pulling the front down, you could see wayyy to much leg (and by leg i mean my underwear). Not worth the wear for how uncomfortable I felt in this!

Rented twice- piece is worn out
Loved this the first time i rented! Definitely size up (I wear a 6, I wore a 14 in this), but super flattering and easy to wear. I rented a second time and both of the gold buttons at the front were missing... they're a huge part of the design/style and the dress didn't look that great without them.

Not a bad silhouette, didn't work for me
Fit was a little off for me. Had to tie tight enough that the waist fabric was drawn up on one side. That coupled with the material and tight elastic arm bands made me return instead of wearing

Great fit and material
Loved this for work, would've work on a weekend or vacation if it had been just a little cooler out. Cool twist on a basic shirt dress, the material felt great and the fit was perfect (sized up per other reviews).
Blue Striped Jay Dress

Easy, breezy, beautiful, colorful.
Ordered a size down, fit well. Meant to be loose, so obviously not the most figure flattering but a great color and pattern. Also incredibly comfortable and pretty lightweight. Doesn't wrinkle much- packed it in a suitcase and wore it twice without any issues.

Perfect warm weather shirt.
Rented for a sunny vacation, wore to work too. Perfect for a casual weekend- shows sweat but dries super quickly so overall not a big issue. Fit really well and comfortably. Definitely shows a little wrinkling and the flowy pieces lose some shape after wear (and packing in a suitcase). Will rent again for sure.

Perfect the whole weekend, lots of compliments.
Used this for a weekend trip, fit everything I needed for walking around all day and then going out at night. Great size and shape, versatile wears (backpack, crossbody/shoulder, handle).

Easy to wear, versatile.
Loved this and glad I sized down to a small (normally a medium). The armholes were a bit tight on me, but everything else fit well/was a little roomy. Belted with a thick black belt and it was great for work.

Stand out dress with great details
Fit me true to size except for length- this dress is pretty short and that is more noticeable because of the ruffled bottom piece. I loved the sleeves and backless detail. I am bigger busted and there is not quite enough support to comfortably go braless/just pasties- the seams of the bust are higher than my boobs sat naturally in the dress. Loved this dress for Easter with friends (wouldn't wear for family formal event!) but won't rent again.

Cute snowy day sweatshirt
Wore to work, found it to be super warm (almost too warm but not quite). Not the most flattering fit on my body but still a cute top and the side details took away from the boxy cut of the sweatshirt a bit.

Great dress with unique sleeves
Fit loosely through the body, purposefully. Sleeves were perfect. Grest color and material. Rented for work amd would rent again even for other occasions.
