RentYourRocks.com was called in recently by Emma Wall, Personal Finance journalist for the Telegraph, writing a piece called “How I lived the Prada lifestyle at Primark prices”. The brief from Emma was that she wanted our high-end pieces to sparkle glamorously!

I took a trip down to London and it was fantastic to be shown around the Telegraph offices, meet the team and see the photography studio. With a hired pink ruffle dress and black couture dress from www.girlmeetsdress.com our pieces finished her look completely. Emma was wowed by our stunning pieces such as the sparkling Red Carpet Diamond Earrings, the dazzling Circus Tourmaline Ring and the statement Beautiful Rose Pendant. Her colleagues were also amazed and took a moment to try on some of our diamonds and take pictures to send to their boyfriends!

I was really excited to read the article at the weekend as it shows that the Telegraph does “get it”. When renting the lifestyle is so accessible why shouldn’t we have a different look for every party, occasion or invitation, or even just when we feel like it? After all the Celebs have been doing it for years!

Sky News Intervew

December 16th, 2009

DSC00806The Rocks Team had a great day being interviewed by Sky News.  They wanted a fun Christmas story about people that Rent Their Rocks for Christmas Parties and Christmas Weddings.  We had a great time and had one of our members who had previously rented some rocks for her wedding and enjoyed the experience so much that she wanted to discuss options for her 3 upcoming Christmas Parties.  She tried on some Rocks and decided that she could really glam up her favourite Little Black Dress with some Rocks and sparkle at each party.  Luckily each party is with a different set of people so maximum value for her Rental – working 3 times within the same week’s rental!

The Times – Part 2

September 29th, 2009

6Some of you may remember reading a few months ago about us in The Times 2?

RYR was chosen, from over 1,000 applicaitons, to be given the opportunity to work with a great mentor, Jamie Murray-Wells who is CEO & Founder of Glassesdirect.co.uk. Jamie believed our business to be “consumer dynamite” and saw lots of parallels between what we are doing and what he has clearly succeeded in doing. Times 2 have been tracking us and this week has seen our second stage interview plus a few pics by their team.

Alexandra Blair interviewed me last Thursday, she’s a cracking journalist and has been incredibly supportive of our business. Last time she interviewed Jamie and I together, this time it was done seperately so who knows what will be said – let’s hope it’s good. In fact I know it will be good because we have come so far.

This morning Jack Hill arrived at 10am sharp to ‘take a few shots’ – 2 hours later having shot both myself and Tanya and I together, hopefully he will find that best resembles what and who we are.

Part 2 on us is due to be published within the next 7 days in Times 2 – so watch this space.
