My $10 Month with Gwynnie Bee: Bonus Week Five

Gwynnie Bee is a monthly subscription clothing rental service for sizes 10-32. Pay a flat monthly subscription fee and get an endless, rotating wardrobe with unlimited exchanges and free shipping both ways.

Somehow I was able to fit a total of SIX dresses in my final week… so much luck!

I received the following three on Monday:

SPRUCE & SAGE Sunset Charmer Fit & Flare Dress SIZE 2X I tried this dress before in Week Two but the 1X was slightly too small. I ended up buying this one at $30 but regret it now as I think it is slightly too big now. I still haven’t worn it. PURCHASED	LUCIE LU Shift Dress In Pink Chevron SIZE 2X At $17.50, this dress is perfect! It’s very cute and comfy. No complaints here. It looks great paired with a black belt. PURCHASED	TRISTE Etched Printed Shift Dress SIZE 1X At $41, this dress was wayyyy too expensive, but it was too pretty to pass up and I ended up buying it. The material is great and the shape is nice. I got a few compliments when I wore it. PURCHASED

I was sweating it for awhile, thinking that the dresses wouldn’t arrive in time for my subscription to be cancelled. I was already trying to decide if I would buy them sight unseen or return them if I had to cancel before they arrived. Luckily, I didn’t have to make that decision because they arrived just in the nick of time!

LONDON TIMES Tie Waist Printed Blouson Dress SIZE 14W Oh god, this dress was a hot mess. The material wasn’t so great and the shape was horrendous. It didn’t look anything like the picture! RETURNED UNWORN	YOURS CLOTHING Coral And Black Daisy Flocked Peter Pan Collar Skater Dress SIZE 16 I almost didn’t try this dress… and it was my absolute favorite. Out of every item I received from Gwynnie Bee, this one was a real winner and made the whole experience worth it. The shape, design, fabric – everything is wonderful about this dress. It is a true staple item. And on sale for $29, it was perfect! PURCHASED	TAYLOR DRESSES Black & Cream Animal Print Dress SIZE 14W This dress was huge and heavy! The fabric was worn out and pilled. Returned it immediately! RETURNED UNWORN

My trial subscription was set to expire the following day, so I went ahead and cancelled. I really loved the service, but the price is a little high for me considering I like to buy the dresses I loved. Additionally, it is a very hands-on subscription, and in times became a little overwhelming. If/When I can afford the 10+ garment plans, I might consider the subscription again so that I don’t have to keep shipping back clothes so often.

I am working on a final post to review Gwynnie Bee… check back soon!
