Fancy Dress – OOTD #53

March 11, 2015 by robincharmagne 14 Comments

Hello Pretties,
In my Weekend recap I mentioned the cotillion I attended at beautiful Berry College, presented by Theta Omicron Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. When I heard about the cotillion, I got a lil nervous as I really don’t have any fancy dresses in my wardrobe. The last fancy dress I wore was my wedding dress, 20 years ago. This was my first cotillion so I wanted a fancy dress that wasn’t over the top but simply elegant. I was lucky enough to find one at Nordstrom and on sale! This dress is black, perfect for a fancy event, has slimming ruching, lace and sequin, off the shoulder and a sexy slit in the front. It was perfect and for $114, I couldn’t pass it up!

Rent The Runway

Now ladies, if I hadn’t found this awesome deal, I had an alternative in my back pocket – Rent the Runway. Have you heard about it? It’s a rental service where you can rent designer dresses for a very reasonable price. Take a peek of some other choices.

A few things I love about Rent the Runway, they have plus sizes- woo-hoo, you can get a backup size, and they have all kinds of accessories to really outfit you for the night. This is a great service and you can get $25 off your first order of $75+.

What do you think about dress rental?

      Thank you so much Neti! Girl, they were so “coupled” up it wasn’t funny. But I had an awesome time!
