Sheinside Sweatshirt Review

Hey everyone!

So I ordered this sweatshirt a while ago offline. I personally enjoy shopping online, but I know it can be a bit scary or frustrating because you haven't tried it on! Does it fit? Will it look as good in the picture as it does when it comes in the mail? Is the website even reliable?

Well from my experience with http://www.sheinside.com, they take a long time to deliver, and everything is one size fits all (what the heck?!). I actually emailed the company about my purchase because it took so long, I was mortified and positive that the site was a scam. The reason it takes so long to deliver is because it is shipped from another country. The site is reliable as far as I'm concerned, it just takes a couple weeks. But I can also say that the sweatshirts I got from offline fit perfectly, and the one that I'm reviewing today is literally the most comfortable sweatshirt I have EVER worn.
But enough talking right? Here's the review I'm doing on one of the sweatshirts that I adore.

The first picture has a filter on it, but please believe me when I tell you that the picture on this sweater is literally soooo clear. They're are even flecks of purple in the eyes, it is such a high quality print it amazes me. I'm seriously not exaggerating. I have washed it plenty of times and the dye on it doesn't wear off. The quality photo remains the same. 5 star for real on the picture! This sweatshirt is my favorite because the inside of it is incredibly soft. I can not express to you how soft it is. And again, I have washed it and the soft white fur on the inside doesn't matt up or shed. Really soft.
But the worst thing about this sweatshirt, is that after time the black material gets cotton balls. Mainly on the heavy traffic areas. And by that I mean the back of it, and the arms. It's black, so it doesn't look dingy or ratchet, it's just the fabric it's made with isn't so high quality. There aren't any cotton balls on the front where the lion is, but elsewhere, cotton balls may appear.
That is the only negative I found in the sweatshirt, when I bought it was $32. Judging by the quality of the fabric, by no means it should have been that much. Now the price is $25, I'm sure it will go down again, for what it is worth, I would recommend this sweatshirt.

New Trend: Overalls ??

Hey you guys! Hope you're all having a lovely day!
    Lately, I've been noticing the overalls trend being pushed. What do you all think about the trend? I personally can't see many people being able to pull that style off, I think overalls are hard to style! And frankly, the remind me of my childhood which I try to forget! Maybe I'm the only one whose been noticing this trend that's being hyped… ?

If I were to get into this overall craze, I like the shorts better than the pants, they look more spring like! It's kind of vintage and that style is still kinda going strong this season. Florals and the whole Frida Kahlo inspiration is hyped all over social media. I think it can be cute, but it is certainly not my cup of tea, I'll leave that up to women like Lana del Ray!


Flower child looks go well with overalls, but they can also be a chill dress down look for the spring and traveling! Not to mention an outfit like this is very cheap and I'm all about saving!

If you're not a flower child, there are grunge approaches to wearing overalls. The look below is so cool and edgy. It's a nice play on the overall style that I wouldn't have consider to look so cool! Wearing high tops or ankle boots like in the photo below would be a good look with overalls. Another shoe that I think would go great with this trend are sneaker wedges. If street and urban style is your type of hype, I say you should try it!

Another interesting play I saw on the overalls were this scarf! A cute infinity scarf looks simple chic and pretty comfortable. If you don't want to wear heels wearing vintage red shoes would also pair well with the striped shirt and scarf.

                 Ultimately, there are a lot of different ways to style this trend, and the fact that you could go to your local Goodwill to buy a high fashion outfit being sported in magazines like VOGUE sounds like a deal breaker to me! I guess I would have never guessed for overalls to become a trend, but fashion can definitely surprise you! I think it's a pretty innovative idea that could be styled with a lot of creativity, or even simplicity if just paired with a plain ol' t shirt. I kind of hope the trend picks up, it would be interesting to see more styles for this look!

Hope I helped, xo

    Leave me comments about what you think of the upcoming overall trend!
