Ok handbag whores - how many times do you switch handbags with your homies? I know I have a few out on loan, a few that I won’t allow to leave the house without my presence, and a few that I probably forgot that I lent out.

Anyway - BagBorroworSteal.com - is a handbag “rental” program working ust like netflix - the dvd movie rental gig. You pay a monthly membership to “borrow” any bags within your membership tier, you get the bag in the mail within a couple days with a pre-paid return label… you rock the bag till your tired of it, then you return it and pick another bag. If you don’t wanna be without a bag during the return process, you can upgrade your membership for like 8 bucks more a month which allows you to ‘borrow’ 2 bags at the same time. You also get the option to purchase the bag if you love it, and also purchase insurance for an additional 5 bucks a month or something in case your shit gets folded.

they offer memberships in three tiers:

Trendsetter - $19.95 per month gets you bags from Baby Phat, Betsy Johnson, DKNY, Jlo, Guess, Doony & Bourke, Nine West, Kate Spade, UGG, BCBG Girls, Tommy Hilfiger, Steve Madden and more designers who are in this similar price bracket.

Princess - $49.95 per month gets you bags from: Juicy Coutour, Cole Haan, Coach, Moschino, Michael Kors, Carlos Falchi, Kenneth Cole, Dolce & Gabbana

Diva - $99.95 gets you bags from Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Chloe, Hermes, Pucci, Versace, Prada, Tod’s, Valentino, Marc Jacobs, Luella, Jimmy Choo, Isabella Fiore

Soooo - you can basically rent-your-bourgie ass a new handbag whenever you want for the monthlies depending on what your stee-lo is. After surfing the site for a minute, I realized that there are a gazillion bags in the trendsetters area for all you bagwhores up to age 28, then the princess line seems to be more of the early stages of professional women - bordering almost on the conservative, and then the diva collection is sparse, with bags that seem a bit out of season, maybe on sale, even on clearance or designer outlet designs. I’m not too sure about the cnote a month to rock clearance sale bags, but hey, if you want a marc jacobs every month, it really is a deal to pay that money instead of dishing out the 3k and being broke AND out of season 6 months later.

I will be trying this site out - call it ‘investigative research’ and I will keep you all posted. Too bad they don’t have an affiliate program - I know a gazillion bagwhores who I can refer this to. but alas, I don’t want EVERYONE knowing my shit is rented, feel me?
