Rent The Runway

Dying to sport the new Hervé Léger to your birthday party? Tired of spending $400+ on gowns for the endless wedding circuit, but having trouble un-gluing yourself from the Catherine Malandrino in the dressing room? Problem solved. Rent The Runway is the affordable new way to look great without draining your savings account. Dress rentals from your favorite designers range from $50-$200, dry cleaning included, and are shipped right to your doorstep within a day or two. After you wear it, slip it into the prepaid envelope and send it back.



You can stop promising yourself that you'll eat out less or pack your lunches so you can splurge on the dress you've been eyeing (takes one to know one). And while you're stalking your fashion saavy friends, and friends of friends, on facebook, you'll finally stop wondering how she can afford that DVF on a pr salary. I think even I can put aside my "it's an investment" motto and get into this new trend. Rumor has it they are launching accessories and shoes soon too! Sign up at Renttherunway.com and say so long to the days of special occasions styled by Forever 21 and H&M.
