Chic!
I liked this dress, but didn't love the elastic in the back at the top of the skirt, and the sleeves were a little long. But overall looks very put together.

Small, wore as a long shirt
I knew this was going to run small based on the comments so I ordered a size up. Still too short for me to wear comfortably, so I wore with shorts, as a long shirt. Comfy!

Loved wearing this for all day meetings. I wore it open with a black tank tucked into wide leg jeans. I felt confident and comfortable. Would absolutely rent again.

Versatile for work and play
Loved this for a night out at the art museum and dinner, then again for meetings a few days later. Only downside was that it's slightly short in the crotch (I'm 5'5") so after a full day it was a little uncomfortable. Otherwise loved it.

Short, but cute
Perfect for dinner out for our anniversary. Definitely on the short side, and definitely more revealing cleavage-wise than what I usually wear. But the wrap allowed for some adjustment. Overall I'd say this runs small because a size L barely fit and I usually wear an 8.

Gorgeous and fun
I didn't get a chance to wear this on a beach vacation as planned. So instead I wore it on a cold and rainy night over a black base layer shirt. It looked super cool. Can't wait to rent again when the weather is warm. I think I'll need tape to keep from flashing people, but it fits great overall and easy to adjust.

So teensy
I ordered my usual size, and though I was technically able to put this dress on, it was so ridiculously small that it was unwearable.

Perfect XMas Eve outfit
I rented the set for Xmas eve with the extended family and it was so comfortable and cozy. The pants are a little long in the crotch so it has more of a baggy vs fitted look, and they stretched out pretty quickly. But great for chilling.

Turtleneck is stiff and goes way too high
I really liked this sweater in theory, and it fit pretty well except for the ridiculous turtleneck. It's very stiff and rubbed against my chin all day. I felt like I was wearing a neck brace. Couldn't wait to take it off!

Super cozy and lots of compliments
Loved this coat! Got compliments from my cool 23 year old stepson as well as women at the office. It's very warm and comfortable. The only thing I didn't love was a little decorative "remove before flight" tag on the sleeve, which I did indeed remove!

Beautiful, just a little itchy
Warm long vest, beautifully made. It's not too thick or stiff, and moves a bit when you walk, which is nice. Only downside is it's a little itchy, especially around the collar, but otherwise love it.

Warm and gigantic and wonderful
First off - this is a super puffy coat with a giant collar. If you're expecting to put this on and have a slim fit then this isn't the coat for you. I loved it and thought it was super comfy and trendy. Surprisingly go more compliments from dudes and women didn't seem to understand it. Disclaimer: I wore this 28 weeks pregnant so didn't wear it buttoned, but loved it anyway and will rent again post-baby.

The most comfortable thing ever
I loved these overalls and wore them almost non-stop for two weeks. My office is casual so I was able to wear to work a couple times, and then on the weekends I practically didn't take them off. No downsides here. Love them and would wear every day for the rest of my pregnancy if I could. I'm at the beginning of my third trimester.

Finally a chic maternity dress - but watch the front slit!
I loved this dress so much and got tons of compliments. It's comfortable, looks great on, accommodated my third trimester bump and was stylish. However, the front slit is tricky and if the dress shifted around at all my entire crotch was in peekaboo mode. I ended up wearing tights to prevent any slip ups, which was fine in the winter, but would be too hot in the summer.

Thick and comfortable, but on the large side
Beautifully made blazer and perfect for fall / winter, but definitely runs large. Case in point: I wore this 26 weeks pregnant and was actually able to button it. The sleeves were a bit long as well. Got tons of compliments and felt great wearing it.

Comfy and fit well
Wore this at 26 weeks while on vacay and it was perfect. Comfortable and fit well, though I don't think it would fit at the end of my pregnancy since it wouldn't adjust any larger.

Comfiest travel outfit ever
Wore this twice for a couple long travel days (cross-country flight with a toddler). It was super comfortable and was so easy to wear. It's a little too casual to wear around out and about, but I didn't mind wearing loungewear on a flight. I could live in this!

Just not flattering (22 weeks pregnant)
I was happy this dress fit my bump given that it's not a "maternity" dress, but the cut and style just didn't look great with a belly. It looked like a fancy hospital gown, and the length was a little awkward for me too. Slightly too long to be a midi and too short to be maxi (I'm 5'5"). I wanted to love it, but maybe I'll try again post-baby.

Chic blanket
When I put this on this morning my toddler said "mama blanket," and I think that sums it up accurately. But it's a really well made, beautiful blanket! It is pretty enormous though and super long as shown on the model. It reached below my knees (I'm 5'5"). The material is warm and comfortable and I thought it was fun to wear. I might rent again.

Comfy and good for pregnancy
I wore this twice at around 20 weeks pregnant. It's stretchy and kind of baggy enough to accommodate the tummy, though I can see where other reviewers are coming from in terms of it not being super flattering. It was for me, but I think if I wasn't pregnant I wouldn't have liked it as much. Either way, got tons of compliments on the little details and the dress overall from both men and women!

Beautiful skirt!
Loved this. Very light and flowy, and the elastic waist allowed me to wear 20 weeks pregnant (I sized up as well). It's very slightly sheer so I wore a slip underneath just in case, but would probably be fine without thanks to all the pleats.

Holy slit!
As other reviewers have mentioned, the slit on this dress is crazy high. It reached all the way to my butt, and I'm not even tall! (5'5") It was however very comfortable and stretchy and worked well for 2nd trimester, but I had to wear leggings underneath for it to be even somewhat appropriate for daily life.

Well made and fun
Loved the feel of this blazer. It's really well made and felt nice on. It's a little boxy and the arms were long on me, but that's probably because I sized up since I'm in my second trimester. Got many comments (compliments?) on the chicken, which isn't surprising! Get ready to talk about it a lot if you rent this.

Nice jumpsuit, fits well!
Loved the fabric. It's lightweight, but still looks classy and professional enough for the office. Kind of a pain to take off with the zipper in the back, but that's just the nature of jumpsuits. Overall fit really nicely and I'd rent again!

I've never received so many compliments on a dress! It is beautiful and fits really well. The tie makes it easy to adjust around the waist too. I dressed it down with high-top Vans.

Felt like a chic grandma!
I loved these shorts. They are really high quality, so even though they were a little bit short for work, they were constructed so well that they looked professional and nice. Between the color and the fabric these shorts felt like something my grandma would have worn at the retirement community in Florida, but in a really great way. I truly loved these and will rent again!

Not super flattering, yet still fab
Agree with other reviewers about the waistline. Definitely made me feel like I had a little pooch, but at the same time the dress is comfortable and chic. I wore with a long cardigan to downplay the shape a little and I loved it. Probably wouldn't rent a second time, but glad I got to try it out.

A little OTT, but it works
Gotta admit, I was on the fence about wearing this. The sleeves are pretty poofy, it's not exactly figure flattering, and it's a bold color. But I'm glad I did because I got a ton of compliments and felt pretty chic. I also felt like a Westworld extra, but I guess that's kind of chic too. Fit wise it's a little loose and puffy, but you can adjust the waist by tying the side tassel thingies tighter. I was trying to hide my tummy, so it was great for that.

This is a beautiful dress! I wore it to work and to a family dinner. It's very flowy (be careful in the wind because it will fly up), and feels great on. Got lots of compliments. I'd rent again for sure.

Never thought I'd describe shorts as beautiful, but here we are! Very nice fabric and embroidery. They fit true to size and even though they're on the shorter side they felt dressy enough to wear to work (casual office).

Very flattering and forgiving, but a little short
I loved this jumpsuit! It was very comfortable around the waist, and also figure-flattering. It was a little short however, and I'm only 5'4". The neck and crotch were a little bit tight when sitting, but on the plus side it was the perfect length for wearing flats. I'd definitely rent again.

Very trendy, lots of compliments!
I wore these to work and then all weekend around town, running errands and playing with my daughter. I felt very on trend when I walked into the office and a young hip designer was wearing a similar pair of jeans, so that made me feel great. These fit pretty well, however I'm a little thicker around my waist and the jeans were pretty snug in that regard without stretch. They also did a kind of weird crotch thing, but I think as I wore them more that went away.

Very pretty, also see through!
I sized up based on other reviews and thank goodness. One size up fit perfectly, and was even slightly snug around my ribs at first. This dress is almost completely sheer, so I wore with a pink slip underneath which worked perfectly. Got lots of compliments and I felt very pretty wearing it :)

Beautiful flowery dress! A little low cut
Love love love this! Got so many compliments. I wore out to dinner, around town and to work. It's very pretty and flattering, and flows beautifully when you walk. When I wore to work I put a bandeau on because it showed too much cleavage, but otherwise easy to wear.

A little scratchy, not super flattering
Not my fave. The fabric was very thin and a little scratchy, and the collar easily flapped around. Because it's thin it shows all your curves, which I didn't think was very flattering for my body type.
