Finding the perfect business outfit everyday is tough, but when you add a growing pregnancy belly things can get downright ridiculous. It’s easy to justify spending several hundred dollars on business suits, blouses, and skirts that you can wear for at least a year. But when your body is changing by what seems like the hour, spending that much money does not seem feasible, especially with a new baby on the way.
Mine for Nine (www.minefornine.com) solves this problem by letting customers borrow designer maternity clothes by the week or month. Through browsing online you can find countless outfits, separates and even dresses and evening wear for special occasions. Don’t worry if you don’t know exactly what size you are, they offer a “second size free” special to make sure you’re comfortable and looking great.
Once a mommy-to-be has grown out of a size or is ready for something new, she can return the clothes in her postage-paid packaging and browse for more. Mine for Nine features designs from around the globe, loaned at 75% off the retail price. Mine for Nine also sells its clothes at full retail value for those instances when you fall in love with an outfit.
All Mine for Nine garments are professionally dry-cleaned through two processes, inspected for quality, and shipped to customers in the dry cleaning bag. Mine for Nine asks that customers return products in the condition they came in but, if you do happen to get something on an outfit, simply treat it immediately. Or pay a $5 insurance fee up front just in case.
