SHOP FOR LESS

Wouldn't it be awesome if there was a Groupon site solely for fashion retail sales only? And wouldn't it be even more awesome if it were just for broke college students, like you and me?! Kembrel is just that site!

Kembrel is an exclusive shopping community only available for college students. Kembrel partners up with the latest brands and designers to give college students 40-75 % off women and men's apparel, shoes, accessories, home decor, etc. Sales include brands from Cheap Monday, Insight, SuperDry, Ben Sherman, Priviledged NYC, American Apparel, and many more. Kembrel makes sure to choose only the hottest brands that pertain to the hip and trendy college student.

So how does it work? The limited sale for the various brands starts at 5pm and lasts for 5 days. It's as simple as that.

But that's not even the best part. Since almost everyone has a Facebook, especially college students, Kembrel has partnered up with them and has made it even more convenient to shop, making them the first ever Facebook retail store! Instead of refreshing your Facebook home page every five seconds because you're bored, why not check out Kembrel through the Facebook Store and buy some cute outfits?

Kembrel is tailormade for the college student, so check out their site at kembrel.com or go to Kembrel through the Facebook Store, and start hopping on those deals while it lasts

RENT THE RUNWAY: LOVE. WEAR. RETURN.

Ever seen a designer gown or accessory that you're just dying to buy that was just way too expensive? Or ever seen dress on a celebrity that you know you will look great in, but couldn't afford? Well dream no more, now you can rent it!

Rent The Runway is a website where fashionistas such as yourself have the opportunity to try high fashion designer dresses and accessories by just renting! Founded by two Harvard Business graduates, after noticing that high designer dresses were just too costly and unaffordable for the average Jane, they sought to establish a company for "women who know and love high fashion, who want to look glamorous for all their nights out."

Rent The Runway has top high fashion designers such as Herve Leger, Badgley Mischka, Proenza, Alberta Ferretti, and more. All the rental prices are 90% off the regular retail price, with most dresses ranging from $25-$300 --that's a great deal! RTR gives you one free dress of a different size as well when you rent, just in case the dress size you picked doesn't fit. There's even professional stylist who can assist you on your fitting if you are unsure. For an additional $25, you can also get a second rental for a different dress as well! They also provide you with a free goodies bag that includes double sided tape, deodorant stain removal, and bra strap adjusters so your new dress will fit with ease and comfort! Although there is a mandatory $5 insurance fee along with the rental price, that covers everything, from an accidental mishap like a button falling off or a wine spill on the dress, RTR will cover it!

Rent The Runway is an absolute must for those special occasions where you need to look absolutely fabulous, but can't afford the ridiculous price tag. RTR is affordable, fun, and most importantly, reliable! Just sign up for free as a member here and in the name of Rent The Runway, "love, wear, return!"
