How do I dress cute on a college budget?
With six home games, socials, formals, and everything in between, it can be intimidating trying to find a cute outfit for everything, especially at a good price. One of the best ways to get cute gameday outfits without breaking the bank is renting your clothes. Rental companies have grown a lot, especially in college towns.
Nuuly and Rent the Runway are larger corporations with good options, but you can also support local pages like RentEssies, ShopQuad, E-Closet, and other student-run social media accounts. These local pages are great for last-minute shopping because pickup is in Auburn!
Nuuly and Rent the Runway are nationwide companies that rent various brands on a monthly subscription.
Nuuly: $98/month for six items
They also offer a 10% student discount with verification of a student email.
Urban Outfitters owns Nuuly, so you'll find options from Urban Outfitters, Free People, FP Movement, Anthropologie, and many other great brands for any occasion.
Rent the Runway:
$129/month for one shipment with five items
$164/month for two shipments with five items
$275/month for four shipments with five items.
They have multiple subscription options to fit your budget and needs. RTR also offers accessories for rent, such as handbags, jewelry, and sunglasses. They have more upscale options like gowns, whereas Nuuly has more everyday options.
RTR also has a one-off rental program where you can rent a single item for four days, which could be good if you want to rent one outfit instead of splurging on an item.
Stuck on what to pick?
At the end of the day, it's about what you feel your best in! This is your outfit! So pick your favorite game-day buttons, a cute purse and jewelry, and hit the road! It's time to cheer on the Tigers! War Eagle!
