There are definitely a few there—I am a few hours south of you now but lived in Tempe for a while! there used to be an outlet-type one at Arizona mills but I don’t know if it is still there.</p> <p>I have things kind of like this:<br /> <a href="https://www.loft.com/floral-mixed-media-flutter-top/461036?skuId=24486873&#038;defaultColor=2222&#038;catid=catl000011" rel="nofollow">https://www.loft.com/floral-mixed-media-flutter-top/461036?skuId=24486873&#038;defaultColor=2222&#038;catid=catl000011</a><br /> That are cute and comfortable. I would never actually spend $45 on this but 50% off is more reasonable.</p> <p>I used to stress about the cost of clothes like this but as I got older I realized I tended to wear the same favorite things in rotation and it was worth spending a little more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810444 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 13:23:22 +0000 Littlebit7 2810444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: i will! I selected the lowest price points (I still have some baby weight to lose so don't want anything super expensive)..I should get an email tomorrow with my stylists pulls. I like that i can veto stuff before the box ships. Also, free alterations for anything you purchase. fingers crossed! My "style" is super casual; I'm interested to see what she pulls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810439 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 12:46:51 +0000 MamaBear87 2810439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Iced Tea: i love to buy used but have been disappointed by the shops in my area and I've tried threadup. It just always overwhelms me </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810436 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 12:15:32 +0000 Iced Tea 2810436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lately I’ve had good luck with resale shops. There are a couple of new ones in my city that turned out to be really good. They are picky about the items they take to sell and organize the store in a really convenient way (by type, then size, then color, etc.). It made it really easy for me to find the specific pieces I wanted to fill out a capsule wardrobe. It was really helpful to have so many brands and styles in one place, without it looking like a mountain of junk. This year the popular neckline isn’t the most flattering on me, but at the resale shop I was able to find what I wanted since they carry styles from more than one season. I’m going to start shopping resale more often. I just got my first shipment from thredUP as well; got some nice silk items for less than I’d pay for a bargain piece at old navy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810435 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 12:08:04 +0000 MamaBear87 2810435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaCate: I'm sure I do. I live in Phoenix metro area so we thankfully have most everything. I'll for sure check it out. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810431 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 11:22:27 +0000 MamaCate 2810431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: I would say that 80-90% of my “cute tops” are from Loft. They are comfortable enough to wear on the weekends but the patterns and fabric are nice enough to wear to work (we have a pretty casual office). The sticker prices look expensive but they regularly have sales of 40-50% off everything. So I can get a cute shirt for $20-30 and they hold up better than old navy in my opinion. Maybe worth a trip if there is one near you? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810429 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 10:42:35 +0000 MamaBear87 2810429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbubbletea: I've tried on their stuff and it's just not made for my body type. Everything is either too tight in the chest or super baggy everywhere unfortunately </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810428 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 10:41:21 +0000 MamaBear87 2810428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: thanks for the brand suggestion! I know they do. Hubby just thinks I'm crazy 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810427 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 10:41:06 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2810427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>you might want to check out old navy? they have some nice tops, I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810426 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 10:36:47 +0000 looch 2810426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: If you look at the Gibson and Calson lines in Nordstrom, you'll see they offer a range of casual options too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810425 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 10:01:15 +0000 MamaBear87 2810425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I'm not against going in I just would love to find someone that I actually like the clothes that isn't crazy expensive.<br /> I don't like jcp, kohl's, or sears because I feel they have juniors clothes and then older women clothes and nothing in between. I like the discount stores but I just don't have the child free time to go digging there. Buying clothes is such a chore now </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810424 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 09:57:57 +0000 MamaBear87 2810424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit7: let me know how it is!<br /> Hubby just shot down nordstrom. Said that I don't need professional clothes and that's all they have 😂 he wants to go shopping without me and that always ends in a bunch of impractical shirts </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810422 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 09:22:34 +0000 looch 2810422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: If you are not sure about sizes, I do think you have to either go to a store and figure out what brands fit you, or order a whole bunch of stuff and do a return.</p> <p>I buy almost all my clothes online these days, but when I am buying pants from a new place, if they have a store, I go in and try them on. Then I buy online in the styles and colors that I want. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810383 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 20:08:15 +0000 Littlebit7 2810383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: so I’m an interesting turn of events I just signed up for trunk club. I’m so impressionable. Ugh. I’ll let you know how it goes! (I have a Nordstrom card so the waived fee was a perk, also they only send you a box when you request one and you get to preapprove the items they are going to send you). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810376 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 17:49:37 +0000 MamaBear87 2810376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit7: i don't have a nordstrom cc so I'd have to eat the 25 dollar fee if I didn't buy something.<br /> I think I'll try a stylist. I totally agree a few of my favorite dresses my friend bought me as birthday presents </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810374 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 17:33:19 +0000 Littlebit7 2810374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: I’ve heard good things. Apparently there is no fee if you are a Nordstrom member.<br /> Good idea about using a stylist. Such a great free service. Some of my favorite clothing items are things I wouldn’t have normally chosen for myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810373 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 17:29:14 +0000 MamaBear87 2810373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit7: interesting. I'd not heard that nordstrom had a subscription service. They also have personal stylists so I might just make an appointment and go. I feel like that might work better than trying to decide on sizes online </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810372 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 17:05:47 +0000 Littlebit7 2810372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe try Nordstrom trunk club? Tell your stylist what you want and price points. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810352 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 15:06:29 +0000 MamaBear87 2810352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kiddosc: I've tried all the brick and mortar stores and I'm never really over the moon about anything. I also hate how most of them are set up, makes it difficult to find like things if you find a piece you like but want a different pattern or something </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810350 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 15:05:03 +0000 MamaBear87 2810350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: cool suggestion. I'll check it out </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810345 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 14:45:08 +0000 kiddosc 2810345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you haven't gone shopping for yourself in awhile, I would go to a brick and mortar store. Kohl's, JCP, Old Navy all have decent sales on a regular basis and you can try on different styles to see what appeals to you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810337 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 14:17:31 +0000 snowjewelz 2810337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: Check out Puttingmetogether.com She helps people out together basic/cute wardrobe and teachers how to mix &amp; match stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810335 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 14:13:01 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2810335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: nope, they have many different things. Its like a marketplace. Different sellers, different items, with deals that last a day to a few days at a time. There are womens, mens, and kids/baby clothes, but also home décor, bedding, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810334 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 14:12:49 +0000 MamaG 2810334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd hit up Macy's, Kohl's or Belk because they all constantly have decent sales. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810330 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 14:05:05 +0000 MamaBear87 2810330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for the input ladies. I hate shopping for myself, I feel like anything I try and put together just doesn't look good so I just have a closet full of basic ts and jeans, and skirts and shorts for summer.</p> <p>@JennyLayneAZ: sounds like jane.com is mostly just basic ts? I don't need more of those. Looking for comfy but cute tops </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810328 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 13:57:30 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2810328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Their sizes for me are hit and miss. I'd recommend Jane.com for new shirts :) They have an app too, I love it. Most of my shirts are from there. I've bought basic fitted t's - scoop neck, v neck, and crew cut, in a bunch of different colors, for $4.99 each (plus shipping). They have new deals every day.</p> <p>Good luck!! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810325 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 13:54:02 +0000 snowjewelz 2810325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with others. I think if something is loose-ish fitting then maybe you can go for it. Shipping is also expensive IMO. If you are determined, I'd google up the actual brand and double check the sizing on the brand's actual website too. I've ordered shoes for DD where their size chart say 1 thing but the official brand's size chart say another. So in that way I was able to return &amp; get a refund... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810324 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 13:51:57 +0000 raspberries 2810324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Zulily doesn't have its own line of clothing - it aggregates various different brands, so the quality, fit, etc. are all different and completely brand dependent.</p> <p>That being said, I wouldn't shop there if you haven't bought anything for yourself in a long time. You can't return anything, and I wouldn't risk spending the money on it if you don't know what brand/size/style is most flattering on you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810321 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 13:48:00 +0000 Boopers 2810321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’d look somewhere else to shop for clothes. Zulilly’s shipping can take forever and you can’t return anything! I’ve been stuck with clothes that don’t fit well after ordering from them, so I stopped ordering clothes and only order other things I don’t think I’d ever need to return. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zulily-clothing#post-2810316 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 13:37:17 +0000 MamaBear87 2810316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone buy clothes for themselves from zulily? My husband keeps trying to get me to buy myself some new shirts because most of mine are worn out/stained/not that flattering 😂 yay mommy hood!<br /> Zulily is appealing because I can get a few shirts for 100 bucks but not sure one fit etc </p>
