Cost: $60, Premium Subscription
My Elizabeth & Clarke Spring 2014 Collection arrived. I was so excited to see these shirts in person. I couldn't really remember what I was getting, because I had ordered a few months ago. I chose The Premium subscription, which is 3 shirts per season and works out to be $20/shirt. I'm looking to build up my work wardrobe with some closet staples, so I couldn't pass up this deal.
Elizabeth & Clarke designs 3 new shirts each season (every 3 months) and you can purchase 1-3 shirts from the collection each season with their different subscription options. They also allow you to choose from 2 additional shirts featured in past collections as your selections. From what I've seen of past collections, there is always at least 1 shirt that I HAVE to have!!!
My shipment arrived in an Elizabeth & Clark box with an information card with details of all the shirts in the Spring 2014 collection. The shirts were folded nicely with cardboard inserts and packaged inside large Ziploc clothing bags. The presentation upon opening the box was pleasant. Here's a couple of pictures to show the packaging and what I received.
The first shirt in the collection is The Hutton. It is a grey, modal tee shirt with a boat neck. This is a very soft shirt that fits well (not really tight, which I prefer) It is machine washable and dryer safe. I love this because you can dress it up and wear it as a work staple or dress it down for the weekend. (I took pictures of the shirts upon arrival, so this is what they will look like when you receive them, right out of the packaging. They are a little wrinkled, sorry.)
The next shirt in the collection is The White. It is a soft, silky, durable Crepe de Chine classic button down shirt with a covered placket. This shirt fits comfortably and will be great as a classic work staple. I need a few shirts like this in my wardrobe! It is also machine washable and dryer safe, which is perfect. I think this will look great tucked into a jacquard pencil skirt!
The final shirt from the collection is The Arden. It is a Crepe de Chine black sleeveless shirt with a covered placket. I'm usually not too crazy about sleeveless shirts, but I wanted to try this out for something different. I know I can make it work with a cardigan or blazer, but I'm also going to try to move outside my comfort zone and style it other ways. Any suggestions??? This shirt is also machine washable and dryer safe. I think that's why I was so excited to try this subscription. I love clothing with easy care!
I love the shirts I received in the Spring collection and can't wait to wear them all. They feel like great quality shirts, and are also very comfortable! I already selected the shirts for my Summer 2014 collection too, which will ship June 1st.
Have you tried Elizabeth & Clarke? What do you love about it?
