Great for sporting events!

Rent this for when you're going to a game but don't know who's playing and won't be buying any merch!

Cool girl cardy

Such a great cardigan and surprisingly more versatile than expected. My favorite little patch was the Swan on the back. A joy to wear for the spring!

Oh yes

She has gotten so many compliments! I loved her way more than i thought. Perfect for work or going out, and very cute for spring. It is a chunky cardigan so it is quite warm.

Bought it!

I got this baby home new with tags and became more obsessed with each wear. Couldn’t bear to part with it so took advantage of the 50% off sale and am keeping it forever! Definitely rent it if you get the chance. It’s definitely oversized but it’s a vibe.

TEAM RTR REVIEW

In love with this cardigan!!!! It is so cozy & fun. Went with size 1 and it was roomy/cozy/oversized. For a more fitted feel, I’d recommend sizing down. Sleeve is a slight puff sleeve- the patches are such a statement and so cute. Got tons of compliments on this!!!

Great Sweater

This sweater is very well made, it is thick, comfortable and beautiful. I love the patchwork. I usually wear a 14/16 and for a size 2, which I am very happy with based on the oversized fit of the garment.

Randomly so cute

Loved this and it wasn't something I'd expect to like? I paired with a red knit free people handkerchief scarf and it matched the pop of red from the heart patch. Really cute to dress up or down

Wearing It Nonstop—Still Debating the Buy

I’ve dressed this piece up and down and love how versatile it is. I’m seriously tempted to buy it, but I’d consider purchasing only if the price were a bit lower. Until then, I’ll keep renting—I can’t get enough of it!

Has weight to it but still feels like a light sweater that is a good layer for summer nights. Perfection. Bought it.
