Yesterday I gave you the skinny on the perfect LBD, but today I am going to tell how to get designer brand dresses for next to nothing when you’ve got a big occasion. RentTheRunway.com is an amazing site whose name says it all. You can rent dresses right off the runway of your favorite designers without shelling out the big bucks. All it takes is 5 minutes to sign up. 

Herve Leger for $150 dollars — need I say more? I don’t think I do but how about Nicole Miller, See by Chloe for $50, or Missoni for $150? You can find endless other designers on this amazing website and there are dresses for every shape and size with unlimited designs.  

You can complete your outfit from this site by renting jewelry or a hand bag, including amazing Judith Leiber clutches. They even sell Spanx which as I said yesterday is a must to smooth everything out under dresses. 

We think this will appeal to all types that want to save a few bucks, but we’re not sure which types would be squeemish about wearing clothes that others have worn before them…Funs? Classics? You tell us, what do you think?
