Outfit of the Day: It's a Rental

Marianne recently signed up for Rent the Runway and she was having so much fun wearing fun designer rental dresses that I was influenced and signed up too (using the Bad on Paper code BOP for 40% off 2 months.) I'm still working remotely I don't really need much in the way of nice clothing but I thought it would be a fun way to challenge myself and try some new styles. This is definitely not going to backfire with me falling in love with things I can't afford. Nope, no way. Here's what I rented for my first go-round:

This is the Manzanilla top from Apiece Apart and when I first tried it on I was like, I don't know about this. It's smocked and ruffled which isn't usually my thing but it fit so nicely that I ended up wearing it three times. You can purchase items from RTR at a discount but this must be newer because they're only offering 10% off, which makes it still too expensive and fuck you, RTR. I am taking this personally. It's nearly sold out in the world (a few sizes here) but this other Apiece Apart top is lovely and has a similar vibe. For something similar, I love this Loft top and this one is cute too, with the smocked neck. For a cheap-and-cheerful option I love this deeply discounted little top from Ann Taylor.

The jeans are AG Jodi Crop in a light wash and they were fun (I wore them a couple of times) but I sized up and definitely shouldn't have. These jeans have a lot of stretch and I easily could've worn my usual size. These are still available here and also come in some other good washes. Super comfy and I am very into the cropped bootcut thing right now! I also love a lighter wash for summer. 

Oh yeah, this is my favorite rental and I haven't sent it back yet. I just LOVE a red bag and this one is so good! It's Rebecca Minkoff and I might just end up buying it down the road. It's a good size - big enough for the stuff I carry daily but not so big that it's hard to carry. I love the different leather textures and the turnlock! Also, it's just a really good red. It's sold out and only available via Poshmark and the like but for something similar, this red Minkoff bag is so good and it's on sale! I also love this one. For something similar under $60, check out this red bag at Yoox. I now have, like, ten red bags that I want. This rental thing is totally saving me money, right? Ha.

Sorry about the creepy giant pic but I wanted to show you the details of this cute-ass top that I'm still bitter about. Ugh, I love it. I'm also wearing my favorite jewelry from Three Flames Silverworks and My Precious Studio.

For my next round of rentals I'm getting a truly insane Ulla Johnson dress (eeee!), a Nanette Lepore top and a Sea New York dress. Do y'all want to see them when they arrive?
