Washboard Chest
This beautiful dress is a full two sizes small in the chest compared to the waist. DD, skip this one. The colors were beautiful for a jean-jacket topped look.

Thin sweater
This is a nice lightweight sweater, a little short so I had to wear it with high-rise jeans. Otherwise, a cute black and white piece. Nothing special.

Eye catching coat!
This coat is so comfortable. It wears like a bathrobe, I wore it once and my daughter wore it once. Both times we received comments from strangers. If you are an introvert, this is not the coat for you!

Great accent jewelry
These earrings went beautifully with two different sweaters that I rented. They are big enough to stand alone and smell enough to pair with a necklace. Great pieces of jewelry.

Super nice sweater, high quality material runs a little large
Really beautiful sweater. High quality, just runs a little large and baggy. So if you want to wear it fitted as styled, order down.

This was new with the tags still on it, and very soft! Too big for me to wear appropriately.

Beautiful fabric, unflattering top
Fabric is gorgeous, skirt is romantic. It just didn't flatter AT ALL, between the shoulder and chest.

I rented these for a charity party! The dangle is perfect for a long bob.
The size isn't too big but is large enough to notice and really complement any black or blue outfit. I ended up keeping these through Unlimited for two months- wore them a few times out, and always felt confident when I received compliments on them.

Perfect business casual top!
I wore this from a work meeting out to a preview party at someone's house, and looked perfect for either event! It is itchy and NOT stretchy in the arms, which made it a little uncomfortable, but gosh it looked great! I'd wear it again.

Wore this to a business casual museum fundraiser and rocked the party. The color threw me off until I put it on!! Beautiful fabric felt like suede nd was stiff enough to protect my nubra. Received compliments from other well dressed women.

I kept this for 6 weeks!
I loved this dress for parties, for cocktails on the beach, for date night. I'm sad to say goodbye to it! The tie in the back must be undone and retied very loosely to put the dress on by yourself, otherwise you'll never reach the ties to tighten them. The dress is a polyester and feels like silk, therefore does not stretch, and as you slip it on and off you may have to carefully adjust your shoulders. A slight elastic gather at the waist allows you to put it right where you want it, and my 5'9" frame found it just perfect. The high neckline is tasteful, though I still needed a strapless bra with this. Highly recommend!

Beautiful print on both sides. Odd fitting silk.
I am so sad I was unable to wear this! On occasion my arms don't fit into shirts, so I'll go a size up. This one was a size up and the sleeves, being silk, not only did not stretch but only came just past my elbows. The body of the shirt was fine. Was so sad I couldn't use this!

I loved this skirt so much I hope to buy it when the season is over.
I rented this great little number for an event, and found the cotton too casual for evening, but the skirt was fantastic to wear to school events (I was the most fashionable mom at the 1st grade Zoo play in this and a chambray oxford) and a lunch out. I'm not sure if it is from wash or the color on the photo is off, but the skirt background is pale pink, not cream or white as it appears. This would look great with a black tee or tank, as well. The waistband is stretch but not too stretchy, and the fabric is light as air, but still has some volume.

This was a health center charity fundraiser, but I was covering it for a magazine, too.
I wanted to be cute but not expose myself in case I had to lean over during this party. The Culottes did the job. They were brand new, and I got to cut the tags off! I paid attention to the reviews and ordered a size up, and the size 10 fit like a small/medium size 8. The waistband is very high and will cover part of or hit right at your rib cage. The top I wanted from Unlimited was not available, so I went with a simple black tank top. I think it would be very cute with a one-strap or sleeveless top as well!

This was perfect for a friend's Mardi Gras party! Moved with me all night.
The fit is a slightly stretchy and comfortable (for sequins) true-to-size. The length is fine, even for us tall girls, and I could have ordered my usual size, but have been trained by designers at RTR to order up. Beautiful reflection of light from the dress- I felt like a human disco ball!

It was cold enough to finally wear one of these great heavy blanket sweaters. Birthday delight!
The fit feels a lot like those radiology aprons they put on you when your mouth is x-rayed at the dentist. Nice heavy weight keeps things in place. I wore with a long sleeve black tee with leather cuffs, and black skinny jeans, and black booties.

These really added an edge to my dress!
For an art show, I rented a cool, edgy dress, and these were my mystery bling. I loved the way they played up my shaggy haircut and drew attention up.

I received many compliments on this dress, and for being stylish at an art show.
The arms are a little tight (but I have strong arms). The V was deep and wide, so prepare for a necklace or some really great earrings. I was sent some fun cuff earrings as my mystery bling, and they looked very edgy and cool with this dress. The fabric of the skirt holds its shape very well, yet is lightweight! I rented this AGAIN to wear to my birthday party with a cute jacket. Great little dress.

Comfortable dress for church.
This was my backup for an art show, and I ended up wearing it to church. Paired this with black tights and black boots, and was very comfortable all morning!

All of my bling and a perfectly-fitted dress made the night an easy success!
These earrings stayed on well, and were lighter weight than expected- a pleasant surprise.

The event was a birthday party in a very hip part of town.
This size 10 fit like a size 6 in the waist. I couldn't wear it. This makes two shipments of dresses that run entirely too small! :(

These will work with anything.
As a bunch, they are glitter bombs. A single bracelet, however, looks like a $2500 bangle, and was stunning!

This would have been perfect to wear to a baby shower!
It would have fit if the zipper would come up above the thick waistband. We didn't want to risk breaking the zipper! Beautiful skirt material, the top was stretchy and comfortable, but we just could not get it to zip.

The event was lovely, I wore one of my own maxi dresses.
This was tight in the legs and big on top. Also ran shorter than any jumpsuit I've worn, and I wear a lot of them! I was unable to wear the 8 (too tight in the legs) or the 10 (MUCH too big on top). The color and weight were great, I'm sad I couldn't make it work.
