Summer has (unofficially) officially arrived, and I couldn’t be more excited. As a summer baby, I think this is the time of year when I genuinely flourish. To kick the season off right, I have a couple of trips lined up to Miami and Nantucket, where I’ll get to do all the fun-in-the-sun things like hitting the beach, outdoor brunch, and so much more. As a true shopping writer, I’ve spent a lot of time brainstorming all the looks I want to wear and, more importantly, how to save on them. Because let’s be honest: sometimes the preparation for the trip, from getting hair and nails done to trying to get a whole new vacation wardrobe, can be pretty costly. That’s why I’ll be using Rent the Runway.
If you know Rent the Runway, you know that you can supplement your wardrobe with a handful of the best designer clothes and accessories monthly. But it doesn’t stop there — the subscription service also offers one-time reserves where you can rent pieces for up to four days instead of the entire month. Usually, the reserves are less than a fraction of the retail price, with some options starting as low as just $15. But to make the deal even sweeter, we have a special discount code where you can get 30% off your first-time reserve of a minimum of $50. All you have to do is select the days you want to reserve your item and type in SK30 at checkout to save even more.
So if you have one wedding to attend next month or have a major work event coming up where you need just one or two looks instead of a whole slew of them — or if you’re like me, who’s heading on vacay and wants a couple of really nice dresses to wear to dinner, this is the best option for you. Below, I’ve shared some pieces I’m looking to reserve for my upcoming trips. And remember to use code SK30 to save on your first-time reserve.
Miami, FL
BanJan Scorpio Dress
As someone who grew up in the Sunshine State, Miami is my favorite part of Florida. It’s summer all year round and the best place to wear bold colors and loud prints like this adorable puffy-sleeve mini dress. It’s all in the details with this little number; it’s the perfect statement piece for a night with dinner and drinks afterward.
MISA Los Angeles Elisabetta Dress
For a daytime brunch on Collins Ave, this printed long-sleeve mini dress is a sweet option for a breezy day. The peasant-style top with a flowy empire-waist mini skirt is incredibly chic without doing too much.
Anya Hindmarch Raffia Drawstring Tote
Miami is the place for an adorable mini bag like this raffia drawstring tote. It’s just the right size to hold all the necessities, such as credit cards, room keys, lip gloss, and your phone.
Nantucket, MA
Prabal Gurung Collective Tie Shoulder Midi Dress
This will be my first time in Nantucket, but I imagine clean, classic styles like this Prabal Gurung midi dress would fit just right in. While this dress has a simple blue and white color palette, the chevron stripes, ruffled tiers, and tie-shoulders add just the right amount of oomph for an everyday dress.
Prabal Gurung Collective Sleeveless Embroidered Midi Shirt Dress
Here’s another Prabal Gurung dress that gives total nautical vibes for any vacation to Nantucket or the Hamptons. It’s styled as a chic, midi-length shirt dress and covered with delicately embroidered florals that add the right amount of color to an all-white dress.’
Lauren Ralph Lauren Striped Linen Pants
A pair of breezy linen pants are perfect for any beachy vacation. You can style them as a cute cover-up over your swimsuit or wear it with a t-shirt to lounge around the hotel.
