Unique and fun for vacation!

I wore this in Tuscany for a day of wine tastings and it was perfect! Fun, unique, and comfy for all day. I paired it with another RTR top underneath and I was warm without a jacket. The shoulders are a little bulky as others mentioned, so it needs layering underneath to balance it out.

Very cozy. Fit perfectly. I got so many compliments. I could've done a small or medium but I liked it a little baggier.

Cute! Looks $$$

I wore this every day that I rented it no joke - it’s such a statement piece and got lots of compliments by fellow well dressed strangers. It’s not the most flattering piece I’ve ever worn, it’s thick and boxy, but who cares it’s so cute

LOVED IT

The quality of this sweater is so good. Really thick, but not too warm with it being a vest. Definitely a unique look. Paired it with a pinstripe button up collared shirt and Tecova boots. The shoulders are wide so if you’re self conscious about a piece of clothing adding bulk in that area you may not like this sweater.

Julie the American Girl

It’s giving Julie the American Girl doll in the best way possible. It is very THICK. I wore it with a white turtle neck or a white collared blouse. Very cute. Fun pop of color for the winter.

Modern, 70s vibe perfection

Love the 70s vibe of this sweater vest! It does a boxy fit, so if you like a form fitting vest, you could belt it. I wore it alone and layered over a button down shirt, and loved it both ways

Colors and Pattern are Fall Perfection

Really wanted to love this piece the pattern and colors are great for fall but the fit is definitely on the larger side and the thick yarn while high quality makes the vest hold its shape and stick out from the body especially in the shoulders.

So fun!

This sweater vest is amazing. It has such vibrant colors and a fun pattern. I love how unique it is. The only thing I didn’t love were the proportions of the shoulders, I though it was a little awkward looking but still enjoyed wearing it. Maybe with a blazer over would work well to cover up the shoulder part. I’d still recommend- it’s fun to wear a few times and I got many compliments.

Accountant Vibes

This sweater vest was very boxy and bulky. It was not cute in the way I had hoped for. It might have been better for a stay at home cozy fall vibe if the weather was chilly instead of a sunny, be outside kind of week (I rented it back in October). Regardless, it didn't really work for me.

I liked it, but it made my boyfriend giggle. Not for everyone!

The colors were bright and it was a fun fall fit! It's a very very thick knit, and definitely an interesting boxy shape to the sleeves that pushed me out of my comfort zone.
