- I love dressing up and formal events. I'd like to think that I have a good eye for fashion, and whenever I gain another follower on my fashion Pinterest board, I'd like to think that's someone saying "I like your taste!" Is that weird? I don't know. I just really like clothes and shopping. Really. Really like clothes and shopping. I have since... forever?! At least since my mom stopped buying my clothes for me. I remember picking out a cute Tommy Hilfiger red jacket with ribbon on it in 2nd grade as a Christmas present from my cousins; I think I wore it everyday after I got it...
- My budget doesn't allow me to buy lots of dresses, especially expensive formal dresses. One day... one day...
- I hate re-wearing dresses. I got the cutest dress from BCBG at T.J Maxx for a formal I attended 2 years ago... I loved it. However, my mom said I could only buy it if I wore it to my cousin's wedding as well. (The dress was $80 at T.J Maxx, original price around $250... all my friends' dress were around $50, whoops!) I agreed, because the dress is gorgeous! I have worn it since to the formal, the wedding and to a fancy dinner with my best friend. It is such a gorgeous dress that I don't mind wearing it a couple times, and I'd still wear it again if I had a time... But I hate having to Insta the same dress over and over again. ;) And you have to Insta special events! Thank goodness that my mom and I are the same size, and she has this gorgeous Calvin Klein blue dress I've worn to some formal school events.
The wedding!

So what's the solution to all these problems? Rent the Runway! The dresses from Rent the Runway are gorgeous, designer and you can pay a great price to wear them once. Aka different dresses for different occasions! You can literally rent the runway... so cool!
I haven't used it yet, but the reviews are great. The best part is there's a retail store in NYC, so you can actually try on the dress in person before buying! If you don't live in the city, RTR lets you rent two different sizes in the dress, for free! Just in case your normal size doesn't fit. How perfect is that?! Love it.
