Rent a Handbag

I just checked out the website listed as a rental "rentmeahandbag.com" and wanted to add a few notes. First of all, in order to get the 15% discount to use in their outlet, you have to pay up for a PAYING membership, not the Free Guest membership. Memberships range from $69 - $119/month.

Use the "Netflix of purses" by renting chic new bags

Keep the armslung equity in the wallet and my favorite -- eliminate clutter -- by renting handbags. Sign up to join the handbag rental clubs at levels ranging from basic to couture. New purses are fresh! Here are your options. Anyone whose ever used the rent a bag option, tell us how it works. Use Easy Edit and Share!

Bag Borrow or Steal costs around ten dollars a month to join, but then you pay from $15 to $275 a month to rent a handbag. Add in a little insurance and shipping ($10) and there it is! They have the big names here: Chloe, Balenciaga, Coach, Fendi, Ferragamo and much, much more. The really hot styles have wait list instead of a borrow option.

From Bags to Riches has lots to choose as well but slightly more complicated rental lengths and pricing structure; on the other hand, each bag comes with $100 insurance. First-timers have a limited bag rental but there is also a free trial with some pretty darling little bags to choose among. And there is a Club Diva incentive program (think frequent flyer miles for handbag rentals) that's enticing.

HandBag Borrowers provides reviews on handbag rental services as well as information on current promotions and detailed information about designer brands that are available for rent.

RENTMEAHANDBAG have you heard of this new upcoming site called www.rentmeahandbag.com. They are going to have one monthly flat fee for each level of handbags, with free usa shipping! and they said they are going to rent designer shoes and clothing as well as handbags. you can have 2 items out and keep them for however long you want on each level.

Be a Design Diva
The day had to come. Just as you can monogram a tank top and paint your own Thanksgiving serving platter, so, too, can you design your own handbag. It’s a budding industry, appealing to those who want something unique and particular, right down to a customized strap length.

Interested in becoming a real handbag designer? Look for some insight here at Career Style.
Or get that real one-of-a-kind photo bag. Now showing designs that are chic rather than campy. See photo bags for details.

The Wall Street Journal recently rated five of the top online do-it-yourself purse sites (“The New Bag Designer: You” by Catalog Critic Elizabeth Blackwell, May 12, W9C). The article is a handy guide, as the design-your-own bag sites are somewhat tough to find. Be warned, there are no returns on these purses and a majority of the styles lean quite preppy. More to the point, perhaps, one is not really doing a lot of designing, but picking out a handbag style from the selection of available models and then selecting the fabric (in most cases). Some designers also let you select the handles/straps, lining, and other optional features (e.g. pockets, zippers) you want. And, presto, some three weeks later, your new best friend arrives in the mail.

Here's the amazing Capri Sun Purse by Avalon of Annapolis. She makes her own bags that sometimes show up at the charming boutiques of this super charming little town:

This felted bag was made from a pattern on MagKnits that I modified. I knitted the bag from Cascade 220 yarn and felted it in the coin-operated washing machine in my apartment building. The yarn cost $6 and four trips through the washer were $4 -- can't beat a $10 purse! I have vague plans to line it and possibly add a fastener, but it looks good and works just fine as-is.
