If you are like me, you don’t really like to go shopping for new clothes. It’s not that i don’t enjoy buying a new outfit or finding a new fit or style I like. I simply don’t enjoy the process of clothes shopping.
Ok, maybe when I was a size 0 – 4 I did, but my body isn’t the size it used to be! I’m ok with how I look. In fact, I think I look pretty darn good for my age. But trying to find clothes that fit all of my curves and height without being too tight in some areas or baggy in another is quite a hassle.
Not to mention the fitting rooms! I go in excited to try on my picks. First outfit goes on with no problems. I keep trying on a few more combinations of clothing, even the one item I know isn’t going to fit but I just have to try. (You know what I’m talking about.) Usually about halfway through my self-modeling session, I’m frustrated, flushed red, my hair is completely disheveled and I’m ready to burst from the dressing room like a 2 year old about to throw a serious tantrum!
Other times I’ll try something on, and whether it is the strange retail lighting or the magical mirrors in those dressing rooms, for some reason the piece just doesn’t look the same when I go to wear it a few days later.
Now though, I’ve found a service that takes the pain out of clothes shopping and actually helps me to self-educate on what fits and styles look best on ME, all in the privacy of my home. And the best part is, I get to wear new clothes almost every week and I don’t have to buy them if I don’t want to!
I’m talking about LeTote. An innovative clothing “rental” service that allows you to try on the clothes they send you, for as long or as little as you want, then send them back (or keep them) in order to get the next tote sent. I’ve been using the service for 2 months now. I usually keep each tote about 5 days, long enough to actually wear all of the pieces sent. Then I schedule a pick up from USPS, place the clothes and accessories into the included return bag, and as soon as the postal worker picks up the bag, my next tote is on the way!
I’ll admit, the 1st tote didn’t work for me, so I sent it back the very next day. However, I went into my account, rated the picks and evaluated the fit of the garments. A few days later, my 2nd tote arrived and I LOVED it! I only kept one item, but I did go into my account and selected each of the other items to be sent again. Yes! You can have items resent so you can wear them again without buying them!
