When I travel I refuse to overbook myself or make too many specific plans, preferring to be flexible because it’s vacation and having a rigid schedule sort of contradicts that concept for me.

With one little hiccup aside, more a shipping issue than any fault of RtR, I’ve loved the experience. I’ve had 10 … Continue reading Revisiting Rent the Runway →
