Our trunk show was a success! It was a beautiful day in Los Angeles and the set up was perfect! We are so sad to be leaving Rent the Runway but look forward to what's to come for the company! This has truly been a special year full of great experiences. We will all be graduating this Saturday May 5th! 4 years flew by. We can't wait to introduce you all to the new Loyola Marymount RTR representatives!

COACHELLA 2012 Fashion Trends! Featured blogger: Alexandra Nunnally

As most of us know, Coachella is a music festival that happens once a year in Indio, CA. This isn't just any music festival, its a three day long one. People fly in from all parts of the United States just to be a part of this experience. Since this has been a sold out show for years, this year for the first time, they are having two weekends of greatness. This festival has been a fashion trademark known for  the hipster, edgy, and hippie style of clothing. Being so well known,  girls are well aware that this coachella vibe clothing is a must. How much clothes can one wear in 100 degree weather, while still looking cute and edgy?? 


I know for the most part that many girls plan accordingly to make their three days of hipster clothing the best of the best. This requires months of previous planning to find that perfect outfit, because we know that what your wearing will be all over Instagram and Facebook. So put your shopping pants on and get ready to spot the Coachella look at any store in preparation for Coachella 2012! What's been big in the past is anything that is frayed, floral, crochet, tie-dye,  jean, Navajo-inspired  and bright. 

                                                  

                           

                                         
Some great starting points for potential finds of insane festival fashion can be at stores such as: Brandy Melville, Planet Blue, Urban Outfitters, Free People, American Apparel and any vintage shops. Look for bold patterns which draw the eye. Crop tops are definitely a must, especially if wearing high waisted shorts.
                                                                      
                          

Celebs and non-celebs alike can't stay away from Coachella because if the desert had a fashion week, it would be at Coachella.

So if your one of the lucky 200,000 that get to attend Coachella 2012, get ready for the styles of the desert and a unforgettable weekend. Find your inner hipster style and hit the stores in looks for anything bright, frayed, studded or crocheted.    

                                                 Peace.Love.Coachella

LMU's spring break falls a lot earlier than most schools (February 27th-March 2nd). Easily over 100 LMU students went to Cabo for the break this year. We were so pleased to see so many people sporting the RTR accessories. The pink truly stands out. Have a great spring break everyone and please be safe! Send us your pictures in RTR wear at RENTTHERUNWAYLMU@GMAIL.COM or to our facebook page -- we look forward to seeing all the pictures!

LIMITED EDITION: RTR TWISTBANDS

It's almost impossible to go anywhere these days without noticing a twist band around a girls wrist. Twist band hair ties are made of elastic trim so they are extremely comfortable. The twist band supports most any hairstyle and can be worn in your hair or around your wrist like a bracelet. On top of that you can add your own personalized message.
