Disco Nap: 2/3. This year I have worked through a Disco Nap: 2/3. This year I have worked through a lot of emotional baggage on what being beautiful is. That most of our focus of being beautiful is intertwined with the desire to be thin. Angling our bodies in pictures to the thinnest look, looking for clothes that are “flattering” and shaming our self when our body doesn’t look like we want it to in an outfit. So many things about body positivity are nuanced and deep and layered. Ive accepted and grown to love so many things about my ever changing frame but I even knew there was this deep seeded hatred of my belly knowing it’s not aesthetically appealing to society. Even as I write this I won’t lie and say this last year I’ve learned to love every part of my body and I never feel shame about it. What I have learned is that I’m not going to hide it anymore. That I’m not going to try to make myself appear smaller than I am. Because trying to hide is leaning into the shame.

This year when @rachelmadelynphoto and I were talk This year when @rachelmadelynphoto and I were talking about shooting for my birthday I sent her two concepts. The first was my newspaper shoot, posted yesterday, and second was this series I named Disco Nap 🪩 💤. Both of us were torn between the two and she was like, let’s shoot them both. 

For me as a blogger and a creative I get to take lots of pictures but they are usually for a brand or a campaign. Styled shoots like this are so much fun to put together and give me such a spark creatively.

Clothing Rental Subscription Services to Refresh Your Wardrobe

Clothing rental isn’t a new concept. We have all seen the success of Rent The Runway. The new concept is existing retailers allowing you to rent their current collections for a monthly fee. Places like Eloquii, Banana Republic and New York and Company just to name a few.

If you asked me what I was shocked to see available in the fall of 2020 it would be how many retailers are offering their current clothing for rent. These business models were in the works pre pandemic but now with many of us working from home, not attending a lot of events and cutting back on outings in general we all need less clothes. Which means less sales for clothing retailers.

The concept of renting clothes isn’t just one to boost their sales. This opens up your wallet and your closet for so much more. For a minimal monthly fee you can have access to their expansive cloests without adding to yours. Have you always wanted to cretea casule wardrobe? This may be your chance.

I decided I was going to try as many of them as I could over the last few months. I haven’t been able to try them all but here are the ones I have…

Gwynnie Bee

Cost: $49 to $199 a month

Details: 1/2/3/5/7/10 items out at a time / unlimited exchanges

Items: Shirts & blouses, dresses, denim & pants, cardigans & sweaters, jackets & outwear, skirts

Sizing: Regular and Plus

My thoughts: This was probably my favorite box. Everything came fast and all in one box. As soon as I received it they sent me an email outlining how much it would be to purchase items in the box. Cancelling the box was also simple and I was able to do it in their system online. I cancelled before returning my items and just put the outstanding items I had in the mail.

Eloquii Unlimited

Cost: $85 a month

Details: 4 items out at a time / unlimited returns

Items: Dresses, tops, bottoms, jackets

Sizing: Plus

My thoughts: I love Eloquii clothes but don’t usually spend the money on them because I don’t have a job in an office and especially now I don’t have a lot of fancy events to go to. I love that this gave me the option to get things I wanted and may only wear once and then I could return and try something new.

One thing I didn’t like was the fact that I had to call the company to cancel the subscription.

NY&Co Closet – Unlimited Access

Cost: $50 a month

Details: 3 items at a time / unlimited exchanges

Items: Workwear, athletic wear, tops, bottoms, dresses

Sizing: regular

My thoughts: I was the most disappointed with this subscription. They advertised that plus size clothes were available in the box and when I created an account I realized that there were extremely limited items in plus. To be totally honest with you there were three things I could have chosen from. Not at all worth it in my book.

The bigger issue was the fact that I could not just cancel online. I had to call the company to cancel.

Rent the Runway

Cost: $69 to $159 a month

Details: 4 items – 1 swap / 8 items – 2 swaps / unlimited items – unlimited swaps

Items: Everything! Literally active wear to gowns. Accessories and more.

Sizing: regular and plus

My thoughts: I have not used their membership service but I have rented dressed from them in the past. They are very quick to ship and to receive returns. If anything is not correct with your order they are going to make it right quickly.

Banana Republic Style Passport

Cost: $85 a month

Details: 3 pieces / unlimited returns

Items: Tops, bottoms, dresses and jackets

Sizing: 0-14 and XS-XL

My Thoughts: They are offering a wide variety of items and have pages and pages of stock. It looks like it would be easy to stock their closet minimum of 20 items at a time.

NUULY

Cost: $88 a month

Details: 6 items at a time / Unlimited returns

Items: Tops, bottoms, jumpsuits, coats, jackets, dresses, jeans, shorts, etc…

Sizing: Regular and Plus

My Thoughts: If I was to sign up for another box this would be it. There are lots of items and a variety of brands. Just like Gwynnie Bee you aren’t just getting one brands clothing. You can shop from Free People to Cynthia Rowley and hundreds of other brands.

Express

Cost: $59 a month

Details: 3 items at a time / unlimited returns

Items: Dresses, tops, bottoms

Sizing: Regular

There will be new subscriptions becoming available soon. Like with any trend once brands get wind of this they are all going to jump on board. It is a great way to maximize your wardrobe without maximizing your budget.

XO,

Tiffany

About Me
I'm Tiffany. Although some of my favorite people call me Tippy. My favorite color is pattern. Seriously, I've never met a pattern I didn't like. My style is as bold as my personality and you should never trust my hair color. I am all about size inclusive style on a Nordstrom Sale budget.
