i tried RENTING clothes for the first time...is it worth it? (nuuly)
i've never tried a clothing rental service before, but after seeing your requests as well as some youtube videos, i had to test it out! i've never rented clothes before, but as someone who tends to cycle through clothing items pretty quickly, i thought this might be a cool sustainable option! you rent the clothes, wear them for a month, and send them back. i was also curious to see what kinds of options would be available for plus size people - as a size 16, sometimes it can be difficult. make sure you stay til the end to hear my thoughts and if i'll keep doing it! hope you enjoy xoxoxo

I've been using nuuly for when I have a lot of work events or holiday parties & it's so nice because I can plan all my outfits for those events at the beginning of the month & then I don't have to stress about it the day before or morning of. I also would normally probably buy something special for those events & then maybe only wear those pieces a few times but with this I can just send it back & not have to feel guilty for not wearing a really unique piece a ton. Other than that, just for renting for everyday kinda stuff (when I don't have special occasions) it doesn't really feel worth it to me.

I LOVE the blue romper!!!!! It looks so cozy. With the first outfit you could even just throw a white bandeau or tank underneath so it doesn’t matter that the top is loose. I’m happy to see you try this service, would love a mini update after a month to check in with final thoughts, what did you end up loving the most etc.

i love nuuly! one tip is to keep double sided fashion tape on hand to "alter" the clothes you rent if they're too big! for example, I would fold the extra bit of the straps and tape it secure on that first jumpsuit you tried on! it's a game changer for small alterations 😊 (and then just remember to take the tape off before you send back)

I use this service, and it's been a great way to otherwise rarely buy clothes. I have so many times where I like something in theory but when I actually try it on and wear it around, I lose interest. This ends up being a perfect trial run for me, I only buy what I've worn before and know I feel good in. Plus it's great for getting a fun dress to wear once for an event and then sending back.

I feel like renting clothes for special events is what makes sense. A hot pink sequin dress that you’ll only ever wear once? Perfect. But everyday clothes don’t make a lot of sense to me. You looked ADORABLE in these outfits 🧡

Absolutely love the concept of renting clothes, but the price point makes it unaccessible or impractical for a lot of folks imo. It would be more cost efficient to choose items from a thrift store and re-donate them at the end of the month and you’d still spend less. You wouldn’t have the same access to higher end clothes, but if you didn’t care too much about it, thrifting could be a better option. The cons in thrifting are about the same, you don’t get to try stuff on or return it. Or honestly like buying clothes and keeping the tags on, wearing it, then returning it before the receipt expires could even be a better option. Not my particular cup of tea, but same vibe, you don’t clutter your closet and someone else will enjoy it. Thank you for making this video because I’ve been curious, and I hope you have fun wearing your pieces! :)

You’ve talked about having problems in the past with family, and you seem to have a good relationship with your mom now. Just curious because I’ve been struggling with forgiving and forgetting.

I used nuuly this month for a wedding I was going to and it ended up being PERFECT! It’s too expensive for me to justify doing it monthly but it was great for a nice formal dress that I would otherwise only wear once and never again, and for me to get some nice everyday pieces for the month in addition!

This looks fun and I’d love to see updates! Also, I just want to say I 100000% relate to your issue of having clothes fit way too large on the top and just right/too small on the bottom. Like you, I wear clothes on the lower end of plus size and higher end of standard size. In both sizing worlds, I only tend to buy dresses with adjustable straps these days because if I don’t, the top of the dress is always enormous and falling off my shoulders, and I can’t size down because I have to accommodate my hip measurement. It’s so irritating and I don’t want to tailor everything I buy 😭😭😭

i agree with others who have said an end of the month recap would be nice! also, it would be helpful if you mentioned the purchase prices for each of the items as they’re not listed on the website for non-subscribers. i think nuuly is cool because a lot of their inventory is super pricey items so it’s a way to have access to pieces that i wouldn’t necessarily otherwise be able to wear. the monthly charge does require a decent amount of disposable income but it might be worth it to take advantage of renting the pricier brands/pieces 🤷🏽‍♀️

Tiffany Ferguson does nuuly reviews every month on her second channel. She does them at the end of the month and talks about what she actually wore and liked and tries everything on and shows how they fit and stuff. She also sometimes does shop with me videos showing kind of the process of how she decides what to add and what she looks for depending on the season and what events she might have coming up and stuff. I would totally check her videos out to see how she gets the most use out of her stuff every month since she’s been doing it for quite a while!
