Nadine West Unboxing and Review 2020

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

Have you ever wondered how a clothing subscription box works? Nadine West offers an affordable style subscription service.

Before we dig in, a little housekeeping, I now offer social media coaching as well as social media management.

I have shared my outfits from Nadine West for two years now on my blog (read the posts here). Nadine West sent me this box for my consideration for review but I was not paid to write this post and as always all opinions are my own.

What is Nadine West?

NadineWest.com is a company that sends you an outfit to try on and you keep only what you love. The outfit is a surprise, but you take a style quiz and the stylists get to know your style more each month. The outfits are affordable with pieces costing about $10-$30 each, which is very affordable compared to other similar services.

How Does Nadine West Work? 

On the Nadine West website, you take the style quiz so that the stylist can get to know what you are looking for in an outfit. You will receive a pink package in the mail with your personalized outfit. Try on the outfit and keep what you love and send back what you don’t.

My Thoughts On Nadine West 

The style quiz was super easy to do, which was great because I wanted something that didn’t take too much time but I was still able to make notes to make sure the stylist knew my preferences. I really loved the surprise aspect of this, and it was like opening up a girly gift from a really stylish friend. I cannot stand having to return things, it is such a bummer, but I LOVE the way this company does it because your outfit comes with return shipping.

Nadine West Unboxing

This wasn’t a great box for me, and while I got some beautiful pieces they were patterns, florals, and bright colors which aren’t my style. I did get a pair of super comfortable sweater material joggers that I can’t wait to wear this fall. I also got my favorite necklace I’ve ever got in a box! It is a gold disk with a tiny cubic zirconia stone. I love delicate jewelry and this one looks like nice quality and I know I will wear it often. I also got a pair of gold circle studs with silver druzy raw stones that I actually already have a pair that are nearly identical, but I love them so much that I am excited to have a backup pair. *DRESS SHOWN FROM TARGET SHOP IT HERE.

Nadine West Final Thoughts

I love getting my Nadine West box each month! Most months I get a few things that I love, but I do wish that there was a simple form to update style preferences or check-in each month to see what I’d like to find in my box. I hope that I will continue to get neutral pieces that fit my style and delicate jewelry that works with my sense of style. I would love to see some simple, neutral-colored maxi dresses for spring, too. I would rather receive two or three nicer items than a lot of pieces that aren’t as nice of quality.

Have a wonderful rest of your week! Thank you for reading! xx

NADINE WEST REVIEW | AFFORDABLE CLOTHING SUBSCRIPTION BOX

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

I hope that you are having a wonderful week so far : )  I have shared my outfits from Nadine West before on my blog (read the posts here) I have been wearing some items from my last several boxes a lot lately, so I was so excited to receive a new box in the mail from them. Nadine West sent me this box for my consideration for review but I was not paid to write this post and as always all opinions are my own.

What Did I Get?

This month I received a turquoise tunic length t-shirt, a navy floral shirt, black cropped jeggings, chevron floral shorts, a pair of gold hoop earrings, gold bangle bracelets, and a silver and gold antler necklace.

Did I Keep It?

Unfortunately, overall this box really wasn’t my style. The turquoise shirt is a really pretty color, and I’ll probably like it next spring and summer especially over leggings on comfy days, the navy floral shirt is definitely something I’ll wear, but it’s SUPER fitted and I probably will not reach for it as much because of that. The black jegging crops will look nice with loose fitting tops as the weather cools down, but they aren’t something I would have picked myself. The chevron floral shorts are SO cute, my daughter loves them, and they’re very comfortable but they’re a much busier pattern then I gravitate to. The highlight of this box was absolutely the jewelry! I love the gold earrings and unique hoops are very on trend for fall 2018 style. The gold bangles are heavy, and I have so many similar, but they aren’t bad. I LOVE the antler necklace! It reminds the Disney Nerd in me of Gaston so I love them even more. I kept it and plan to pass on the items I don’t love to friends who I think will look amazing in them!

Final Thoughts

I love getting my Nadine West box each month! Each month I get a few things that I love, but I do wish that there was a simple form to update style preferences or check-in each month to see what I’d like to find in my box. I was on a fantastic streak the past couple of boxes, so I was a bit bummed to not see some great neutral basics for fall, but I still enjoy checking out the box each month.

Hi there! Happy Wednesday! And, if you’re in the U.S.A, Happy 4th of July!

What Did I Get?

This month I received a gold layered bar necklace with raw crystals in white and turquoise, a pair of large diamond-shaped gold earrings, a navy skater dress, a long pink maxi skirt, and a burgundy open faced cardigan.

My Outfits

 

Did I Keep It?

THANK YOU Nadine West! I absolutely loved this box and feel like my opinions on past boxes was heard. I loved this box! The necklace with raw crystals is gorgeous and very much my style! I love how it has the layered necklace look, the bar necklace style, and the raw crystal style all in one gorgeous piece. The earrings look beautiful, but as soon as I put them on I realized they were very heavy and I could hear my mother in my head warning me against wearing heavy dangly earrings, so I will wear these for videos and pictures only. The navy skater dress is super comfortable and flattering on but is very short! I will wear the dress with a pair of bike shorts under it. The pink maxi skirt is really long, but you can wear it high waisted and/or fold the top over so it would suit a variety of heights. The one complaint I have about the maxi skirt is that it is VERY thin material, so I will need to wear a seamless thong with it or no-show undies. The burgundy cardigan is long, soft, stretchy, and comfortable! I love this now when I am chilly in the summer, and I know I will be wearing this all the time in the fall and winter as a perfect third piece.

Final Thoughts

I love getting my Nadine West box each month! Each month I get a few things that I love, but I do wish that there was a simple form to update style preferences or check-in each month to see what I’d like to find in my box. I have been liking my boxes more and more lately, which I am pleased with.

What Did I Get?

This month I received a long rose gold leaf necklace, gold bangles that are all connected, a dark red tee with a choker cut, black lace shorts, an olive green open cardigan, a peach floral colored shirt with cutout sleeves, and floral athletic shorts.

My Outfits

 

 

Did I Keep It?

Yes, everything! I instantly put on the bracelet because I love it so much and goes with everything! It is so pretty and I’ve received compliments on it already. The leaf necklace is very delicate and the leaf seems like it could break easily, but I really did like the way it looks on. The dark red tea is a great basic that looks really cute tucked in or knotted. I love neutral colors, and lace is so in style for 2018, so the black lace shorts are going to get a lot of wear! I really like that the lace shorts are pretty short, but the lace part goes longer than the lining, so they don’t seem too revealing. The olive cardigan is very similar to one I received from Nadine West before, but it’s actually one of my favorite ever Nadine West items so I don’t mind. The peach floral colored shirt is really pretty, but it is probably my least favorite item in this box only because I’ve been gravitating to neutrals lately. The floral athletic shorts are super soft and perfect for doing yard work, bumming around the house, or wearing with a white or black tank on casual days.

Final Thoughts

I love getting my Nadine West box each month! Each month I get a few things that I love, but I do wish that there was a simple form to update style preferences or check-in each month to see what I’d like to find in my box. I have been liking my boxes more and more lately, which I am pleased with.

My Outfit

This month I received a lot of clothing pieces and jewelry. For clothing, I opened up a  beautiful peach colored open-faced cotton cardigan, a blue 1/3 button blouse, a pair of floral leggings, and a green sweater dress. For jewelry, I got gold stretchy bracelets, a gorgeous pair of antler gold earrings, and a gold necklace.

Did I Keep It?

I LOVE the peach cardigan and think it is perfect for spring! I like the way the blue blouse looks on, it looks almost like a chambray or denim. The leggings are super comfortable and the print is so vibrant and fun! I love the leggings for lounging around the house or yoga class. The green dress, while I LOVED the olive green color, didn’t fit me well, and also wasn’t my style, but Nadine West makes returns easy. I have worn the earrings already several times, and the bracelets will be cute for stacking bracelets–if my six-year-old gives them back ; ) She LOVES them! I didn’t care for the gold necklace, but have a friend in mind who I think will love it. I appreciate how Nadine West pays attention to your feedback and tries hard to currate a great box of clothing and style pieces for you based off your preferences.

My Outfit

This month I received a beautiful floral top that has a lace-up front, a gray and white cardigan sweater, a blue and black check belted tunic, a pair of olive leggings, a cuff bracelet, a delicate necklace, and a pair of beautiful dangle earrings.

Did I Keep It?

Yes! I was immediately draw to the floral lace-up top and wore it the next day! I absolutely love that shirt, and think it will become a go-to this season. I also love the earrings, they’re different than anything else I have, and I love the delicate details. The tunic is different than anything else I have, but I love wearing plaids and I also love tops that make leggings as pants acceptable, so that one is also a win for me. The gray and white open cardigan isn’t something that seems super exciting, but it’s really flattering on and a perfect basic for when I want something comfortable that still looks cute. I wore the necklace and really love it, I have been very into delicate pieces and love the bit of blue in the necklace to bring out my blue eyes. I don’t wear bracelets or watches as often in the winter because my arms are almost always covered in layers (brrr, Michigan is cold!), but I think the bracelet will be *perfect* for dressing up tanks and tees in the summer.

This month I received an infinity scarf, a top, a necklace, and a pair of earrings with a total value of $70.

 

Did I Keep It?

YES! I was so excited when I opened up my package this month and saw the infinity scarf that I put it on immediately and have worn it nearly every day (zero exaggeration) since then. The shirt is so beautiful on, and I don’t have very much red in my closest, but this shade is perfect for the Christmas season! The shirt has a mock turtle neck and a nice stretchy fabric that looks a bit dressy, but is easy and comfortable to wear. The jeans I styled with this shirt are a mid-rise jean and works well with the v slit styling of the top. The earrings are not earrings I would typically wear, but I styled them with a side braid (think Elsa from Frozen) and loved the way they completed the look. The necklace is right up my alley, but I prefer it with a shirt that isn’t that turtle neck or high neck style.

NADINE WEST REVIEW AND STYLING | CLOTHING SUBSCRIPTION

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I hope that you are having a great week! A few months ago I did my first review of Nadine West, a clothing subscription box. A few weeks ago Nadine West reached out to me again and sent me this box for my consideration for review but I was not paid to write this post and as always all opinions are my own.

Did I Keep It?

YES! I absolutely LOVE the sweater, that is right up my alley and one of my favorite colors to wear. I also really love the stud earrings, they’re stunning on and didn’t seem to irritate my ears when I wore them most of Thanksgiving day. I also really love the bracelet, it is so unique and looks gorgeous stacked with my favorite watch of the moment. The necklace isn’t something I would have picked, and I probably won’t wear it often, but I did think it looked pretty with the long sweater. Funny enough, the necklace is my daughters favorite thing out of the whole outfit and has already borrowed it : ) The white shirt I considered returning, it is VERY small and fitted, so while it looked nice on I felt like I was having to tug it down/hold it in at first until I got used to the fit.

Did I keep it?

YES! I absolutely love that sherbert orange color, and the pearl studs are very much my style. I would not have picked the floral skirt out for myself, but I ended up really liking the way it looked on, but now I will have to remind myself to wear it! The bracelet works really well with a lot of the bracelets I like to wear stacked together like my Alex & Ani, so it will likely get a lot of wear.
