Cost: $60 + shipping for 4 pieces of clothing (no longer available)
Relish Clothing had a sale on Closet Clean-out bags for Labor Day. You received 4 pieces of clothing for $60 (I think, the sale sold out and is not available anymore). It was only a weekend sale, but then it was extended a couple days. And one day I received an e-mail that the Closet Clean-out bags were marked down to $20 for 4 pieces. Well, of course I jumped at the chance and bought two bags. At that price I figured even if I only liked 2 pieces out of 8 it would be worth it. And I could try to trade everything I didn't like or give to friends.
The box arrived last week and everything was packaged in a green bag. I couldn't wait to see what was inside.
Here is everything I received. Eight pieces of clothing for $40 + shipping. Can you believe that deal?!? If Relish Clothing ever offers this deal again, even at $60 per bag, it is totally worth it! I loved the color immediately!
The next item was a Banana Poppy Skirt. This is a fancy skirt, because of the satin material. I'll need to find an excuse to wear this. It fits perfect and I love the full shape!
I also received a Peppermint Chambray Drawstring Dress. This is cute and I think it will transition nicely to Fall with a cardigan and boots. This is a thick and comfy material. The only thing I'm unsure of is the collar, but I think if I style it right, I can make that work. It also fits a bit large, but I think it's supposed to and I'll wear it as is.
Here is a close up of the fabric and print.
The next item was an Ellison Plaid Open Cardigan. I was happy I received this. I had seen it in other reveals and was hoping I'd get it too. The sleeves can be worn long or rolled up. It's very light and I love the mint color I received. I have to work on styling this one, because it's not something I would normally wear, but I really like it.
My favorite color to wear is cobalt blue, so I was so happy to get a Pomelo Cobalt Blue Tank with Crochet Detail. This is so cute! It fits a bit large, but will be great with a blazer or cardigan for work. This is something I would have purchased in the store and would have paid at least $20 for. I already knew at this point I had received a great value from these Closet Clean-out bags.
The next item was a Potter's Pot Striped Slouchy Tee with Pocket. This item I didn't think I'd like right out of the bag. When I tried it on, it was comfy and slouchy and I think this will work great with leggings for Fall. I know this will be one of my go to shirts. I love receiving items I would never pick up in a store that just end up working so well.
This Miley and Molly Navy/Tan Blouse is amazing! I would have purchased this in a second if I found it in a store. Navy is my neutral color that I wear most! This is exactly the type of shirts I wear to work. I love how it can be dressed up or worn casually on weekends. I was so excited I received this!
The final item I received was LeShop Striped Dress. I normally do not like anything bodycon. I prefer styles with fabrics that are loose and flowy, or a fit and flare, or shift styles. I was ready to put this up for trade, but then I tried it on. And this dress is definitely staying with me and will be a welcome addition to my wardrobe. The stripes made it so flattering! This looked great and would make the best date night dress!!!
I absolutely loved everything I received and didn't have to trade anything. After trying everything on, I loved it all and know I will wear everything. It really made me think that I've been going about these surprise clothing boxes all wrong. I always try to put tons of comments to ensure I get items I like and for the most part, I'm not happy with what I'm sent. This was an un-curated bag, everything was picked for me without any idea of my likes/dislikes and it was the most successful surprise clothing package yet. So, from now on, I think I should not say anything about what I like and don't like and just see what is chosen for me. I won't be shopping for awhile, because my closet is over flowing right now, but Relish Clothing really delivers when the need for new clothes arises.
