Some of the dresses look really nice. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has bought from them how the sizing comes up and what the quality is like.

I buy from them all of the time for my teenage daughter. We do not live in the UK and her school dress code is fairly smart so the casual dresses work really well. The Too Much Fun dress is fabulous. Very thick cotton and good quality and not too short!

She has had one dress that I thought was a bit cheap looking for prom, but she loved it.

I have also bought a couple of the sweaters for myself. As long as you read the details and avoid the stuff that is 100% polyester I really recommend them.

Shipping is really fast and customer service is excellent.

How does the sizing come up meriam? is it true to size or big/small?

meriambeetle · 10/09/2013 23:22

I think it is fairly true to size. My DD is about 5'5" and slim built and she has the xxs in the Too Much... dress or the xs in other stuff. I am a UK 12 and take the medium in the sweaters. All of the stuff comes from different designers so I think it varies between items. The reviews are really good.

I love the slightly 50's aesthetic of some of the stuff.

Ooh lovely stuff, but have never bought from a US website before - don't you get clobbered by customs & excise and have to pay extra tax?

Deathbyladybirds · 11/09/2013 06:42

Are you in the US meriam?

I've bought from them three times. Really easy and fast shipping. Sizing and quality is completely dependant on the brand you buy - they sell lots of different brands. Whether you get stung by customs is just down to luck really. I've bought stuff from the US quite a lot in the past, and have had to pay extra maybe 1 out of 3 times.

I've bought from them. They're a bit like asos in that they stock different brands, so sizing changes. Wasn't blown away by quality, including shipping it made my purchases quite expensive for what they were but I'd still order from them again.

The best thing is in the reviews, people often post their measurements and pics of them in the clothes which is really helpful for figuring out sizing.

I love the things they have. What I really need to find is a UK website selling those sorts of styles.

NoComet · 11/09/2013 11:06

DD wants a jumper of that site for Christmas. I've never done clothes from abroad. DH does electrical bits, but small and relatively low value, so customs aren't a problem.

Some of it is vile but there are some lovely bits.
