You guys asked and you shall receive. I literally get more questions and reviews on Shein thank any other thing for STG, and sorry this took a second to do, but as you can tell it is a lot of work to compile a good chunk of the pieces I have and give a true review.
So I will say that as a general review of Shein, I recommend it everyone. It is a great site for anyone that is looking for items that are trendy and affordable, but I have some things you need to know about before you hit purchase.
THINGS TO KNOW:
- Review all the sizes and model references prior to purchasing. I have heard so many people complain about sizing once they receive the items, so make sure you do this before adding to your cart. My biggest issue is lengths of dresses, but that has been something I have dealt with my whole life, so its nothing new.
- Can take a few weeks to a month or more to receive your package, so make sure you take that into account because since it is coming from China it takes A LOT longer.
- The quality reminds me of something from Forever 21. It’s not bad, but it’s not great. I would say that maybe 60-70% off the items are pieces you would wear a few times, but not keep in your closet for ever. I will also say that the sweaters and some dresses that are dupes for designer pieces have completely been amazing and no one would no the difference/love the quality.
- I have bought some dresses that are also in stores like Zara for 3x the amount. So crazy!!
- Returns are free and they send you a label to ship it back.
- Be prepared to be addicted. The site has thousands upon thousands of items to choose from and I always end up going into a black hole; so I max myself out at 10-15 pages.
Alright, I hope that was helpful and please let me know if you have any questions!!! Have a great weekend and thank you so much for stopping by.
