Good morning, lovelies!

I hope you are enjoying your week so far! Life has been incredibly hectic since I returned so I apologize for my posting schedule being all over the place. I’ll save all of that for another day 😉 But today, I wanted to share with you my experience with Rent the Runway unlimited.

My Experience with Rent the Runway Unlimited

 

Prior to this, I had never used Rent the Runway as I just dubbed it a place to rent special occasion dresses. I was thrilled to see that they also had ready-to-wear items that were perfect for work and play! I signed up for the unlimited membership where I was allowed four items at a time and had the ability to change them out throughout the month. Choosing my items was a bit overwhelming at first since there are so many amazing brands to choose from, but I eventually narrowed it down and the checkout process was a breeze. I received my items within a couple of days, which was much faster than I anticipated.

Upon inspection of my items, I had found a defect in one of them. I notified customer service immediately and they were quick to respond offering me a replacement of the same dress or any other item of my choice had it been out of stock in my size. They shipped it within a few hours and even included an additional item for the inconvenience.

Originally, I had just planned to order the items to shoot content, but I ended up actually wearing them in the process! I wore the Draper James dress (seen in this post) to my aunt’s surprise birthday party and got so many compliments! She and my uncle live in Greece and came out to visit for a few days so it was definitely photographed a lot 😉 I also wore a gorgeous pink shift Kate Spade dress (seen in this post) to my guitar student’s high school musical and to work a couple of times (it was my favorite of the bunch). I also picked two more gorgeous dresses for shooting purposes. All of the items fit great and were in excellent condition!

I sent them back and chose four more for my vacation. The only issue I had was that you have to wait until the items arrive back at the warehouse for your second order to be shipped out. It makes sense, but just keep this in mind if you have events coming up. I think it took around 4 or 5 days for me to receive my second order after I shipped back my first one and it arrived the day before I left for Hawaii.

For the second shipment from Rent the Runway Unlimited, I chose four more dresses. While my first order was more dressy and work appropriate, I decided to go more casual for this one. While all of the items were in perfect condition, two of the dresses were unfortunately too short (and I’m only 4’11”). I took them with me anyway to use as swimsuit cover ups but ended up not wearing them as I just didn’t feel comfortable with the length. The third dress was my absolute favorite and I almost don’t want to send it back haha! I wore it twice on vacation (once for a day of shopping and once for dinner – you can see a sneak peek of it here). This Kate Spade  number was another favorite and I used it for shooting and work as it was a bit too constricting for the humidity 😉

Overall, I had a great experience with Rent The Runway Unlimited! Other than the defective dress, items were in excellent condition and shipping was very quick. Customer service was super responsive and helpful in answering my questions and requests. I think that this membership would be great for anyone that wants to change up their look without sacrificing room in their closet or spending crazy amounts of money. They have a lot of things that would be great for work, weekend, parties and vacation. Personally, I would use this service for work or special occasions like brands events or fashion week rather than everyday clothing since the items are higher end, but it really is specific to each person’s life.

Have you used Rent the Runway Unlimited before?

    Fun! I have been doing Stitch Fix for a couple years now, but I am always curious how RTR and other similar services work. Love that dress!

    Lizzie, this dress is absolutely PERFECT!! I’m so used to seeing you in pastels (pink, purple, etc.) but this color scheme looks soooo good on you!! 🙂 I’ve never used RTR (in any capacity) but I may have to give them a shot!!

    I love Rent the Runways premise. I have so many items I’d only need for an occasion and have never worn again – it’s the perfect solution!

    I used RTR unlimited before and I LOVED it! Especially being a fashion blogger with access to hundreds of brands.

  11. May 24, 2018 / 6:33 pm

    RTR unlimited is so much fun! I love having so many different options, and being able to swap out for other items. Their special occasion dresses are the best!

  12. May 24, 2018 / 7:51 pm

    Love your uber feminine style! I wouldn’t want to send anything back either!

    The concept behind Rent the Runway is a great one. I love the idea of being able to get a dress for an event and then return it. And it sounds like they have excellent customer service, which is a huge plus.

    I had an Unlimited Rent the Runway subscription for awhile and loved it as well! I canceled it a few months ago because my fiancee and I bought a house and I’m trying to cut unnecessary expenses, but I definitely want to sign back up in the future! I always loved the items I received and it was so fun having new clothes all the time that I wouldn’t necessarily want to purchase to keep.

    • May 31, 2018 / 3:43 pm

      Agreed! It’s a great way to keep items in rotation!

    • May 31, 2018 / 3:43 pm

      Thank you so much Nancy!

  22. May 25, 2018 / 6:18 pm

    This dress is darling! I think the subscription would be great just for blog photo days!

    • May 31, 2018 / 3:43 pm

      Thank you so much Chez-Rama!

  23. May 25, 2018 / 7:23 pm

    Your dress is adorable and as always your outfit is on point. Loving the whole look.

    • May 31, 2018 / 3:42 pm

      You should! It would be perfect for shooting!

  25. May 27, 2018 / 2:32 am

    My roommate just used RTR for the first time last week and she loved the dress she got! I had no idea that they did casual dresses. I’ve been drooling over all of the Draper James dresses at Nordstrom, so maybe I’ll rent one soon!

      I didn’t either! Draper James is the best!

  27. May 28, 2018 / 9:14 am

    I actually didn’t know that they had ready to wear for rent! Glad you wrote this review, seems completely worth trying! I have also been considering Rocksbox so I’m glad to see you include the ring in this look. Thanks for sharing x

    I’ve always been curious about Rent The Runway, but I’ve never tried it. I love the dress you picked out!
