Rent the Runway Loves Chicago (We Love You Too.)

We had no fun at Chicago Blogger Network's RTR Party.







No fun at all.

Actually, we had a total blast. Earlier this month, the beauties and brains over at Chicago Blogger Network teamed up with Rent the Runway to showcase a sampling of winter dresses just in time for cocktail party season! The W CityCenter was totally packed with fashionistas, bloggers, and loyal customers to the brand. It was our first official blogger's event so we were a little nervous, but we grabbed a few glasses of wine, made some new friends, and drooled over dresses for a few hours. In other words, our dream night.

If you're not familiar, Rent the Runway is a service that allows you to rent designer dresses for a fraction of what they would cost to buy them retail. They'll ship you two sizes so there's no worry about fit, and you can also chat online with a stylist if you're worried about making the right choice. You can check out photos of real girls in the dresses (sort by your height and body type!), read reviews, and you won't be fined for those life-happens spills, burns, etc.

We know, it's genius, right?

We couldn't snap any decent photos of the dresses because it was pretty dark in there (and fine, our hands were full of wine glasses, thanks again CBN!), so instead we hopped online to pick out New Years Eve outfits from RTR -- we're still working to finalize our plans for the holiday, but if they even REMOTELY qualify as dressy, we've got a plan.
