Tis the season of Weddings and Formal Affairs! I started realizing a couple of years ago how expensive it is to attend these types of events. It seemed like every month I had another wedding to attend and yet another expensive dress I had to buy – a dress I would never wear again. You don’t want to repeat an outfit like that. Then I discovered renting formal wear!
Can you believe I rented this Marchesa Notte gown for only $145! (Retail $1095)
A friend of mine introduced me to Rent The Runway. This site is amazing. It has all types of high-end fashion. You can even rent accessories to go with your outfit! You have the option to rent the dress for either 4 or 8 days and it is delivered right to your door! You can even order a second size in the same dress for free. And at the end of the rental, you just place the gown back into the garment back it came in and return it back via UPS. The return label is given to you so you don’t need to pay any return shipping. I felt gorgeous and elegant in this dress and received so many compliments. And it felt great to know I didn’t burn a hole in my pocket.
Outfit Details:
Marchesa Notte – Gilded Gate Sweetheart Gown $145
Gold Cuff – Forever 21 $5 (It is old and I don’t believe in stock anymore)
Ankle Strap Heels – Forever 21 $17
