When Louise on the “Sex and the City 2” movie informed Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) that there was such a thing as renting designer handbags, Carrie was in shock! But did you know you can rent original Louis Vuitton, Coach and Chanel handbags? And, it won’t break the bank either!
There is a site called Bag Borrow or Steal, that describes itself as the place online where you can “Borrow, Collect & Share Luxury.” Prices aren’t too bad either and right now you can get 15% off when you purchase a bag off the site with coupon code HANDSONAPR at checkout.
Take this Tory Burch bag (pictured), the Elise Dome Satchel typically retails for about $595, but you could rent the bag for a month for $95! You can have this fabulous look for a month and then change it up with another designer handbag! What a fabulous idea!
If you want to sell your designer bags stored in your closet, Bag Borrow or Steal will buy them or consign them. The site explains, “We offer two easy ways to sell your gently-used designer accessories. We buy outright or we consign. Each method has its advantages, it’s just a matter of choosing which is right for you!”
Another site called Rent The Runway offers a large selection of jewelry, dresses accessories, bags and clutchs for rent from top designers, along with many luxury items for sale. The site explains that, “Once you’ve selected your items, book for a 4-day or 8-day rental period. We also offer all the essential extras like Spanx and Fashion Tape.” After you have worn the dress or used the clutch, let’s say just, “send back your items in the easy pre-paid envelope provided” and they will take care of the rest! That’s just amazing!
Rent items for cocktail parties or galas. The options are so endless that you couldn’t afford to do otherwise!
These sites are wildly popular and a great way to look fabulous. Even if you can’t straight up afford a $600 purse or designer dress, you need to check them out!
