I recently received word from Rent the Runway that they wanted me to pick any two dresses off the site to enjoy and take some pictures.. And let me start by saying that it was not an easy task! RTR offers hundreds of gorgeous dresses ranging in formality from poolside hanging to Oscar party. I went with a couple of fancier choices, as I don’t often have the occasion to wear gowns, so why not!
Gown – Nha Khanh c/o Rent the Runway
D’orsay pumps – Sam Edelman
Clutch – vintage sunglass case (I added the crystals)
Crystal link bracelet – J. Crew – similar
Rings – LA finds
I love when my photographer tells me a joke in the middle of shooting 😛
Overall, this dress fit me perfectly, everywhere except the length! I would have been happier if it was maybe 2-3″ longer. I believe they do offer this dress in a longer length, and in that case, it would be extraordinary for a fancy holiday party.
Next up, was this gorgeous and surprisingly comfortable ruby red gown from Badgley Mischka. It flowed so beautifully as I walked and I almost didn’t want to take it off! I actually ended up wearing it out to dinner with the boyfriend after this shoot!

I will of course disclose that Rent the Runway sent these dresses to me to wear at no cost. I have been using their services for over a year now, and am a member of their Unlimited membership program. More on that here. Any time I’ve had any type of issue (from a dress that doesn’t fit to shipping delays), their customer service associates have always been incredible. Their selection is amazing, as I mentioned, and includes day-to-day and date night pieces, along with those drop-dead-gorgeous gowns.
Gorgeous dresses, and they look amazing on you.
Hi Courtney, thank you so much! They felt amazing on, wish I could wear dresses like this more often haha.
I hear you, I’m wishing there were a lot more reasons to dress up!
