Clothing Rental Programs: Save Time and Money

I shared this post on Kimberly West Styling Facebook page.  But, it’s such a game-changing piece of advice that I want to post it here on the blog!

Did you know that instead of purchasing new clothing you can rent high-quality pieces?

Some of your favorite brands allow renting options with a reasonable monthly fee and the process is simple:

1. Signup

2. Browse and select styles.

3. Return the items with a pre-paid envelope.

If you love those items, you have the option to keep them with a discounted price!

Below are clothing rental companies:

Infinite Style – Ann Taylor

NY&C Closet – New York & Company

American Eagle Style Drop – Americaneagle.com

Trunk Club – Nordstrom

Rent The Runway

Additional plus-size rental programs:

Stitch Fix

Gwynnie Bee

Stylogic

Plvsh Style

Wantable

I strongly encourage clothing rental services for busy women, last-minute social events, or even to save money!  How often do we wear a dress on multiple occasions?  Also, do we really want an unorganized closet filled with miscellaneous pieces?

Eliminate the hassle of never having anything to wear by subscribing to one of the programs on this list.

Let us know what you think about clothing rental programs in the comment box.  Give us your opinion!

Style Tips to Boost Your Confidence: Grooming, Colors, and The Right Fit

Have you ever noticed how confident people seem to just glide through life effortlessly and with ease? Nothing seems to faze them, an opportunity seems to constantly knock at their door. Confidence is one of the most powerful personality traits. For a few lucky people, it comes naturally. But for many of us, it’s something we need to actively work on to build. One way to boost your confidence is through your style. Here’s how:

Great Grooming

Tom Ford said that dressing well is a form of good manners. Making an effort to groom and present yourself well shows that you value and respect the people you are going to meet. Good grooming can also boost your confidence because when you know you look great, you feel great as well. One of the most important things to groom when you want to appear confident and put together is your hair.

For important events and special occasions such as a big meeting or a wedding, put some extra effort into styling it. If you don’t have naturally thick, long hair that is easy to style, you can get by with the help of hair extensions. The Brazilian deep wave bundles from True Glory Hair are a great option.

They are made from premium quality virgin hair and feature a beautiful bounce and lots of volume. Because they are well-made and durable, you can easily style them in a variety of ways, straightening or curling them as you please. If you prefer a more sleek, effortless style, the Brazilian straight bundles are another good option and are just as durable and easy to style. Whatever your hairstyle, whether you have long or short hair, take care to keep it neat and well-groomed, and this will help you feel more confident.

Know Your Best Colors

Everyone’s skin and coloring are unique. Skin color isn’t as simple as light, medium or dark. Besides the lightness or darkness of your skin, you also have to consider your skin’s undertone, which can either be warm, cool or neutral. Your natural hair color is also unique and contributes to your overall coloring. Why is any of this important?

Certain colors suit different skin undertones best, while the wrong colors can wash you out, or make your skin look dull, sickly or sallow. Figure out your skin’s undertone and find out what makeup colors suit you best. These are the most flattering for your complexion and should look great against your hair and even complement the color of your eyes. You’ll look your best when you’re wearing your best colors; they can brighten or enhance your complexion, emphasize your eyes, and even make your hair look better. All this can definitely help boost your confidence.

 Find Your Best Fit

When it comes to clothes, fit is everything. Ill-fitting clothes will make you look sloppy and untidy, or they can emphasize your flaws and look downright unflattering. By contrast, wearing clothes that fit you perfectly will emphasize your best assets, and can make you look leaner, sleeker and even taller. When shopping for clothes, don’t settle for ill-fitting garments. Get yourself measured to figure out the right size for you, and consider having some of your clothes altered if they are too loose or baggy in some areas.

True confidence takes time to develop. It requires a lot of practice, and you might have to work on it for some time before you can say you are a genuinely confident person. But in the meantime, you can try out these style tips for a quick confidence booster.
