This April my husband and I have a fancy big dinner for one of his clients to go to and I honestly cannot wait, just exciting to have an actual reason to dress up!! That hasn’t happened in a while! Here’s the problem, I am currently feeling rather “uninspired” (to put it mildly!) by my closet (help!). I mean let’s face it, I am a stay at home mom, a pretty simple lady and honestly.. I don’t go to too many super fancy events, let’s just say my wardrobe looks a little sad and very “mall-esque” , lol. Not complaining, but this mama needs to take her look up a notch up!
Since I will probably only wear the dress once, I am now considering renting a dress a gorgeous designer dress for the occasion! After reading good reviews of Rent the Runway , I think it’s time to give it a try! Have you tried it? Loving the idea and it’s now really growing on me! Did you know they have a ton of dresses for rent that start at just $30??! (And that includes designers like Monique Lhuillier, Milly, Trina Turk, Badgley Mishka and more of course!). Nice!
A few things really stood out to me that I loved as I browsed around the Rent the Runway website:
- Real people upload pictures of themselves in the dresses which I think is amazing and super helpful when trying to select a size
- When you rent a dress, you will receive two sizes to help ensure that the dress will fit. wow.
- You can sort by so many different categories, including the level of formality, desired neckline, color, body type, occasion, etc.
OK, now onto the big question, so what should I choose? Here are a few of my favorites below!
