My teenager has asked for clothes as part of a Christmas present. I told her to have a look online wherever and let me know, 15 minutes later she sent me a list for Shein. Having looked at them, and reviews they don’t seem good quality but she very much would like them. Unfortunately, I’m not in a position to fork out new clothes in weeks/month to come should these not be up to quality for example after one wash🙄I explained this to her but she pretty much sounded annoyed when I suggested we actually went shopping in person. I feel bad now, should I just chance £200 on clothes that may or may not be worth the money? Or would you still suggest on shopping in person?

@Yung93 instead of blowing your whole budget, why don't you just order a select few items to gauge the quality?

I was going to suggest the same, order some of the items and then take it from there. Less money wasted and DD will be happy
