A-List Style On A Z-List Budget

Let’s be honest now, who hasn’t looked at the latest picture of Kate Moss or the Olsen twins and wished for a slice of their life? Maybe not the incessant hounding by the paparazzi, but what about those clothes? These women want for nothing, and while head-to-toe designer garb might be out of your league there is a glimmer of hope on the horizon: designer handbag hire.

For a monthly subscription it’s now possible to deck yourself out in the latest must-have bag from the likes of Gucci, Chloe, Louis Vuitton and Fendi. What’s more, as soon as you’re sick of your latest arm-accessory, you can just send it back and update to a newer model. Websites like www.fashionhire.co.uk and www.handbaghirehq.co.uk have a staggering array of bags, all broken down into handy categories such as colour, design, style or price. You can chose to rent these super-sleek accessories weekly or monthly – depending on your budget or your attention span – and get a little piece of the A-list life without breaking the bank.
