Happy fall dress
WFH home in this happy orange dress is great. Comfy and cozy and flattering. Size down.

The ultimate work bag
I'm obsessed with this bag. As much as I want to be a small bag person, I haul so much stuff with me to/from the office everyday - my laptop, lunch, snacks, wallet/keys/phone, sometimes workout gear or a package I need to send out. This bag is fun and fashionable and SO FUNCTIONAL. I wish it wasn't $600, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Runs a little small in hips
This dress shows basically everything, so be ready to have it be clingy to your body. I love that and think the vertical lines are flattering. It is a little dough on someone who has wide hips and a big butt though - the slit on the side is really short because of the way I'm built. Probably won't wear to work but will throw on a jean jacket and wear it to brunch.

Flashy night out
I rented this for a fun night out. It runs true to size, if not a little generous. It's not quite as form fitting as I was hoping, but I really like it. I'm pairing it with some high waist jeans for a fun glitzy look.

Sherbet dreams!
I love this skirt! It's long enough to be work appropriate, and so playful with the silk fabric and pastel colors. I dressed it up with soft pink heels for the office and will be wearing it with bright white sneakers this weekend. If you don't take yourself too seriously and want to try out one of the designers of the moment - this skirt is for you! I have a small waist and wider hips/thighs, so I'm glad I opted for the medium. The small might've worked, but the medium isn't tight anywhere.

Wow! It fits!
I'm usually a size 6 (small waist but wide hips) so I was amazed this fit since most slip dresses are cut pretty straight. It's definitely short and sexy, but the lines of the cut (the asymmetrical hem) are so flattering. I don't even know when or where I'll where this, but I'm keeping it!

nightmare to go to the bathroom in
I wore this to work (we have a casual dress vibe) and wow, I regret it. The fabric is bunching in the crotch area and I didn't realize how high/dramatic the side slits are - it's basically like I'm wearing shorts. The worst part is that the top piece of the romper is connected in the back by fabric, so in order to go to the restroom, you have to pull the top over your head (particularly unfortunate if you're wearing makeup) in order to take it off so you can pull the bottoms down.

I'm obsessed with this dress shape - I would buy it in every color. The bust is tight (I'm a 34B and had little room in the top of the 6). The 6 grazed my hips/butt pretty nicely, so the shape ended up being really flattering. The only thing was the shoulders kept falling down, which was a little annoying. I might try a 4 the next time I rent - but there's no stretch to the fabric so it might not work.

Stunning vacay moment
WOW this is an incredible dress. I've really falled for AMUR. The fabric itself is like a silk satin with a nice light shine. The piece drapes over your body and you cinch it at the waist and just above the hips. No zipper or wiring or anything uncomfy - just a perfect dream of a vacation dress. Runs true to size - I probbaly could've done a 4 and the 6 isn't too long to wear with sandals.

Bizarre fit
This is truly an odd item. The most striking thing is that the pockets on the back sit below your butt - I checked the model and apparently that's intentional (??!) but looks insane in real life. The denim is quite thick, and the top runs large. There isn't much stretch either. I love a sexy mechanic moment, but I am not sure anyone could look good in this. Ladies with booties especially steer clear of this one.

Enormous and bulky
I'm not kidding when I say this probably runs 2-3 sizes large. The small fit like a L/XL. There's so much fabric that the finding effect at the waist is hidden by the overlay of fabric. It's also very heavy fabric, so it's not ideal for summer. It also has a thick neon pink lining around the edges which I don't love. Super disappointed in this one.

I'm in love with this tangerine dream
This dress is delightfully billowy, and frankly swallowed my 5'6" frame whole. And I love it. It's hippie meets the Hamptons. It's luxurious and playful. A real show stopper. Pro tip: it runs long, so I'll probably need to wear heels in order to avoid tripping tomorrow. Amazing dress. Rent it!!

Low-ish rise!
Didn't realize these were going to be low-ish rise jeans. I guess they're more of a true mid rise, which I haven't worn in ages, so it felt odd. Also, not a lot of stretch in the denim. I'm usually a 28 in Madewell jeans but tend to be a more true size 8 (29) in other denim due to my thic thighs/butt, but these definitely ran small. The 29 barely fit, and I'll probably only wear them once because I don't love the fit. The look is good and relaxed, with the fray bottom perfect for a chill denim look. Looks best with a slight heel!

Runs large - boot cut
Love 3x1 denim! They make great pieces. This is a fun little retro piece, and is probably more flattering on taller people. I am pairing these jeans with wedges to give me some more length. I usually am a 29, but the 30 for fine with no major gapping. I would prefer to size down next time on these but they aren't noticeably too big, so you might want to size up. I have athletic thighs and a bubble butt paire with a small waist, so I was surprised I didn't get the dreaded waist gap in these jeans.

Cute little bag that is actually functional - I can fit my keys wallet and phone in it which is a miracle. The color isn't as bright of a pink as the photo, and it has definitely been very worn/loved. I had to reshape it so it would be round rather than squished.

Runs large
I love Mara Hoffman - this piece (like all her others) is so expertly made and feels luxurious. Unfortunately, this top runs big so it gapped out at the neckline and I couldn't pull the sash any tighter. Could flash my coworkers, so won't get to wear this one but love the concept! Note that it is very heavy - it's lined with lots of fabric in the sleeves, so probably not ideal for 90 degree days anyway.

Magical Hamptons cover up
This is one of my favorite rentals to-date! Wow! I lived in this cover up this weekend in the Hamptons. I actually got stopped twice by strangers to tell me how much they loved this dress. As other reviewers have noted, it has skits up the sides and the lattice in the front is entirely see through so if I hadn't been wearing a swim suit top my nipples would've shown right through. I wouldn't recommend this as a dress, but it is the PERFECT cover up!

It zips up!
Great piece with a little edge - like all All Saints pieces. The leather is great and the hardware is luxe. The best part about this bag is that it fits a laptop and it zips closed! That is such a major benefit for me since I rented this for a work trip. I'm swapping this bag in for this work trip and look forward to trying out other bags from this line.

Good travel dress
Rented this for a work trip, so I needed something I could wear on a plane, in transit, to some meetings, and then out to dinner. This definitely did the trick! As other reviewers mentioned there are buttons all up/down the sides and back which is a little stressful. Def double check your buttons lol. I found the shoulders to be a little tight - I have muscular arms but I still usually wear a Small top but definitely needed the Medium.

They're clip-ons
Pretty statement earrings that pack a punch. They're pretty heavy, but not unbearable. I won't be able to wear them at work but could do it for a couple hours at a dinner or party. Returning because I didn't realize they're clip ons, which I find pinch my pierced ears.

I'm obsessed with this!
First of all, I'm amazed this fits my pear shape so well. I'm usually a 6/8 in Madewell jeans, and a Small/XS in shirts, so ordering the 6 was a risk. The leg portion fits really well - the 8 would've been too big and the top would've been way way too big. There's some room at the top so I'll have to wear a slightly padded bra to compensate. The fabric is on the thicker side which feels luxurious. The straps are also somewhat adjustable. Totally in love with this!

Gigantic outfit for when you don't care
I ordered a petite size 6 but I think I could've gotten a 2 pétit. I'm 5'6" and the pants graze the ground. This is a super casual look for when you want to be comfy and don't need to look super put together. I'm wearing this tomorrow because it'll be 90 degrees.

Too short for work!
I'm usually between a 4-6 and opted for the 6 - so glad I did! It fits well except for the length. It is super short. I'm 5'6" and it hits high on my thigh in the front and just below my bum in the back. I work in a relaxed office, but this is definitely not appropriate for work. Might need to wear it with bike shorts on the weekend. Also note that the front is a thin fold over, so there's nothing really keeping it from flapping open in the breeze to flash everyone.

Luxe vacay dress
Rented this to throw on over a swimsuit for our upcoming vacation but liked it so much I actually wore it yesterday! Perfect dress in the hot city. The details are luxe - love the embroidery and fabrics. Runs larger than expected - glad I got the small. I'm usually a 6 in dresses because I have wider hips, but was easily able to wear the size small. If you're busty you might have some trouble since it's got a low cut but I have a small chest so could rock this braless because #vacation

Perfect summer dress!
Absolutely loved this dress! I played it safe with the 6 but could've done the 4 since I'm smaller in the waist and fuller in the hips. You can't really see the fabric detail in the RTR image - it's a black and white gingham print with embroidered daisies. The fabric so soft and textured - definitely an upgrade from my usual sundresses. Dress is lined and feels luxurious for a sundress. Will rent again in the smaller size!

Not for the faint of heart
The medium grazes the ground on me (I'm 5'6") and the fabric is much lighter/thinner than I thought it would be. It actually works well for a summer evening out. That said, the sizing ran a little big so I wish I'd have gotten a smaller one. The thin fabric doesn't leave anything to the imagination, so be warned that any wrinkles/dimples etc will show through. Love the color. Don't love the fit. Still love Mara Hoffman!

I wear a 28 at Madewell but sized up and I'm glad I did! These fit perfectly, even with my athletic thighs. I wish they were a little shorter (they just graze my shoes and I'm 5'6") but I'm impressed these aren't see through.

Weird pockets
I was SO excited for this look and it was *so close* to being great. However, the pockets are so weird - they poke out and call attention to the widest part of my hips so not the most flattering. Also, there is no stretch. I sized up (usually a 6, went with a Medium which is supposedly an 8-10) so the top was quite big and then the pockets were sad.

Unexpected rock & roll chic
I'll admit this was a pick outside of my comfort zone, but I'm so glad I rented! Just a flattering and easy to wear dress since it's a baby doll cut. The fabric is on the heavier side, so maybe save this for a slightly cooler day. Fun rock and roll aesthetic that I'm looking forward to styling!

These are more fitted than I thought from the picture - I thought they'd be a more relaxed fit/feel but they were pretty tight on me. Size up otherwise the lines get squiggly from the pulling.

Pretty print - mermaid style
I didn't realize this dress was more of a mermaid style - it's tight around the hips/butt and flares out. Definitely don't size down like I did if you have hips. The smaller size still had straps that were way too long, so unfortunately won't be able to wear the size up either. Beautiful print though!

Little bundle of summer happiness
This bag just makes you smile. Such a cute, happy, fun bag with well-made details and a strap to wear it as a cross body. Doesn't fit more than my iPhone, credit card, and keys, but this bag isn't really about practicality. Pairing it with a long white dress for a summer outing.

Worked on a pear shape!
I'm actually amazed that this worked on my shape - I'm usually a Small (2-4) top and Large (6-8) bottom, but this denim does stretch out. It was a really fun look. My only size issue was that it could've been a little slimmer in the waist to make me less boxy.

Purple sack that ends up kinda cute?
I sized down in this dress and I probably could've gone two sizes down but it would've gotten too tight on the chest. My biggest surprise was how wide it is - there is just so so much fabric which feels luxurious but isn't super flattering. I really liked the modesty of it (refreshing tbh) and loved the color. Oh also IT HAS POCKETS.

I love this dress! This is my second Mara Hoffman dress and I'm in love. It's long and flowy and cool to beat the NYC heat. I'm usually between a 4/6 but only the 6 was available and is definitely big. I can cinch it at the waist so it's still fitting, but next time I'll get a 4. RTR - buy more Mara Hoffman things please!

Arrived damage
Sad that mine didn't arrive with the belt, because I really needed it to cinch the waist since the rest of the pants were pretty baggy. It was an unusual fit, as the pants were quite big except for a small section at the things where the fabric pulled. It's a pretty pink but these had been worn a lot. Opt for another high waisted pant - they have cute ones in lavender.

Pretty loose top
I rented this for a Pride party and was planning to wear it with some high waisted pants I rented but they arrived damaged. This top is very big and loose, and has basically no coverage - even less than what's shown on the model. I'm afraid my boobs are going to pop out, and I don't even have a big chest. I'm not sure if I'll wear it or not, but I would recommend this for vacays only.

Lovely summer boho dress
I'm obsessed with this dress! I wore it three times. It's long (tea length on me, I'm 5'6" and wore a small) and the bust area is almost too tight (I'm a 34B). I definitely couldn't have fit a bra under this, so plan accordingly. It's a luxurious summer dress because it's constructed so well and has lots of layers of linen in the skirt. The embroidery is beautiful. One of my fave rentals!
