Hey there! Kenia here! Rent the Runway (RTW) is helping me to live my best life right now! I am not getting paid by the company to say this! I honestly credit part of how I feel about myself right now – confident, creative, inspired, willing to explore – to my access to the unlimited closet that RTW provides. Rent the Runway is a clothes rental service. I won’t get into the specifics of how it works, but click here if you want to learn more.

Below are my top 10 rentals for September 2019.

10. Navy Oasis Maxi by Elizabeth and James

Elizabeth and James Retail: $695

I wore this around town, making Saturday errands. This dress is extraordinary! It’s perfect for a hot summer day. It’s very flowy and airy. Some reviews on the RTW site say that it runs big or has too much fabric. It doesn’t and isn’t. You just have to understand the designer’s vision for the dress and own it! LOVE!

9. No. 21 Two Town Side Stripe Pants

No. 21 Retail $590

So cute and trendy – athleisure is so in right now! I ran lots of everyday errands, but totally felt like a fashionista all day. I received quite a few compliments too! Very light weight fabric, so I wouldn’t recommend for winter. BUT, it is perfect for spring or summer. I would definitely rent again if there weren’t so many other choices.



8. Marni Olive Taffeta Midi Skirt

Marni Retail $1,090

All eyes were on me! I wore this to an urban festival. It was so comfortable to walk around in and I received sooo many compliments. The skirt is quite sophisticated in its simplicity.

7. Dodo Bar Or Carmen Caftan

Dodo Bar Or Retail: $618

I wore this on a recent trip to TANZANIA! While I think the design is Mexican rather than African, it worked very well for the occasion. I wore to the African themed restaurant at a resort in Zanzibar. The material is a little heavy for summer, but I does have vent holes to allow the air to flow. Perfect for a nighttime event in Tanzania!



6. Kaufmanfranco Red Layered Halter Dress

Kaufmanfranco Retail: $1,195

Lady in red! Wow! I felt so sophisticated in this dress! It’s a simple piece, but that’s what makes it so unique and sexy. The color is so vibrant and it went very nicely with my skin tone. It runs a little small, so I followed other recommendations on the RTW site and sized up. The dress fit me perfectly. I was very comfortable – had fun at an anniversary celebration.

5. Giambattista Valli Regal Garden Shift

Giambattistia Valli Retail $2,670

Summer perfection! I loved this dress for a weekend at the beach. It took me from an afternoon of wine tasting to a upscale dinner in the evening. It’s a bit short, but I wasn’t uncomfortable wearing it. love, Love, LOVE!

4. Tibi Vivian Striped Halter Dress

Tibi Retail $695

Date night with Kevin! We hit a few of the best hotel bars in Philadelphia, my hometown! For damn sure, I looked good in this halter maxi. I had to be careful that my breasts didn’t pop out — the dress is hard to tighten at the top, so I didn’t always feel secure. But, overall, the look is very strong. LOVE

3. Missoni Zig Zag Trousers

Missoni Retail: $1,295



Fall fun! This was the perfect outfit for a Fall day in the park tasting different ciders. This pants are an upscale version of sweats. I could live in them forever! They are wide legged and meant to be worn loose. If I could afford to purchase them, I would!

2. Kaufmanfranco Purple Print Halter Maxi

Kaufmanfranco Retail: $1,995

I felt like a purple princess in this flowery maxi from Kaufmanfranco! Wow! I wore this out to dinner with Kevin and received SO MANY compliments! The dress is airy and flowy and meant to be worn loosely. That’s just how I wore it!

1. Cedric Charlier Striped Ruched Dress

Cedric Charlier Retail $1,950

What a show stopper! I literally had people stopping their cars to tell me how nice I looked in this dress that I wore during a weekend at the beach. Made me feel like a million bucks! The dress is flowy, not clingy, perfect for a warm breezy day.

And there you have it from me! What’s your favorite outfit from this month? How would you have worn it???
