How I get New Clothes Every Month! The Affordable Way.
July 3, 2023
I love having fun with new clothing pieces, but I am the first to admit that constantly purchasing new trendy clothing items quickly drains your hard-earned money and you often won’t get great “cost per wear” if you own too much clothing! So I found the perfect way to get new clothes every month without finding myself in a bad situation!
Maybe it was just my for you page, but the clothing rental services have been all over my TikTok. And because I cannot pass up trying a viral product so that the FCW Community does not waste their money, I happily allowed myself to be the guinea pig.
Services like Rent-the-Runway have been around for several years, maybe it was the title, but I never thought that service was going to be the right fit for my mostly casual sense of style. I needed a service that was going to offer a wide range of every day and workpieces but also had the option to grab a dress for an upcoming event. I also didn’t want a service that was too expensive where purchasing the pieces would have made more “cost per wear” sense. Through my TikTok friends, I found the perfect clothing-borrowing service for me.
Affordable
First, the service is around $100 per month to rent 6 pieces of your choice ($106.95 to be exact). The first month you can get $20 off so it is only $80 to try it! Even on Amazon, it is challenging to find and purchase 2 great quality pieces for less than $100.
Variety
Next, the selection of brands. If you always find yourself eyeing designer brands like Free People or Anthropologie but find those price tags hard to swallow, you will love this service. There are so many pieces from great designer brands to choose from.
Variety of Pieces. From formal dresses to fun work pants to parkas to hot shot onesies and everything in between; they have it all! I have mainly used it to supplement my work wardrobe and one-time event attire, but if you are looking for casual wear, they have it too.
Ease of Use
Finally, the convenience factor. The service is fully online. They ship the freshly laundered, great condition clothes to you in, what I would refer to as, a reusable packing cube with the return label printed ready to go for your return. Once you have finished wearing the clothes for the month, slap on the return label (no need to wash the clothes—they do that) and drop the cube off at UPS. And Wallah! Next month will be unlocked and you can choose 6 new pieces! What a great concept!
I recommend this to all my family, friends, and FCW Community members who are teachers or must dress up for work most days! Don’t pay full price to try it, here’s $20 off your first rental of 6 pieces just for you!
