Rent Designer Handbags Online

Bag Borrow or Steal is the Netflix of Accessories!

Lisa Brown
We all know the three steps when putting a stunning formal outfit together.

1. Find a fabulous dress that looks as if it were created just for you.
2. Get the gorgeous shoes that match.
3. Don't forget the handbag!

Step one and two can definitely break the bank. Especially when you are shopping for a one time event like a wedding or prom. By the time you get to step three, you may be reaching the limits of your self appointed budget. What about the handbag? Sure a designer handbag is classy and stylish. But who can afford to spend money on a designer handbag, after everything else? Now one could either head over to Payless...and hope no one notices the 'p-leather' handbag that is just screaming tacky... If you go this route, trust me ( I am shamefully guilty of this) you will be feeling ravishingly self conscious!

You could (and I don't recommend it) buy a designer handbag that you can't afford, and keep the tags on it all night. Then pray that your lip gloss won't melt into the lining of the $1000.00 designer handbag that was gracefully 'borrowed'.

If you are one with unlimited cash to spend on a designer handbag for a prom or wedding, then stop reading right here. As for the rest of us thrifty shoppers, we too can afford to use a designer handbag once, then when we are tired of it, or just, (dramatic yawn) bored with it get a new one. How? By using the 'rent a designer handbag' service offered through Bag Borrow Or Steal!

Bag Borrow Or Steal is like the NetFlix of accessories.
Here are a few quick details:

"Low monthly membership and no late fees.
New bags added every day!
Create a Wish List-don't lose track of your favorite bags.
If you fall in love with a bag, you can Steal It.
Fabulous deals on gently used bags in our Outlet Store"

"There is no time limit-keep your item for six months or keep it for a year! As long as your account is in good standing, borrowing frequency is completely up to you.
Borrow any item, whether it's Trendsetter, Princess, Diva or Couture Collections. You'll be charged an additional fee either by-the-week or by-the-month for each item you borrow.
For the first three months of membership, you can borrow up to three items at a time. Only one of those items can be from our Couture Collection. After three months, you can borrow as many as five items!"

Bag Borrow Or Steal offers designer handbags from the following designers; Gucci and Rosiblu; Louis Vuitton and Charriol; Betsey Johnson and Pianegonda; Dooney & Bourke and Lori Bonn. For comparison purposes, if you rented three Betsey Johnson handbags bags for a month it would only cost you $40.00. Each collection of designer handbags has different pricing, but it is no where near the cost of buying a new designer handbag just to be used for one special occasion!

I have heard of celebrities 'borrowing' accessories from designers for red carpet events. I always wished "we" could do that too. With services like Bag Borrow Or Steal, even a middle class diva like myself can afford to use a designer handbag just once.
