YesStyle haul+mini review

Before I went to Scandinavia (which is quite a long time ago already.. =() I also purchased some (err.. a lot) of clothes at Yesstyle. The reason: BIG SALE!

I absolutely love the clothes. It's a pity I had to pay a lot of tax because it's from outside Europe but I guess it's worth it. (BTW, anyone knows away to avoid tax?)

This one was actually from the order before this one, which was a few weeks earlier >_<" Yes I know BAD but... the sale had super cute clothes this time which I couldn't just leave. Anyway, this is a cute hoodie/sweater with short sleeves. It has a cute image of a girl holding a teddy bear. The brand is Click. I must say the fabric is quite thick for Asian quality, and it would definitely keep you warm (even though the sleeves are short, but think about that later) It doesn't have a fleece lining though, but this way you can still wear it in spring.

It was in sale for $34.20. At first I was a bit hesitant about buying this but it was worth it since the quality is quite awesome.

First of all I must say this is so soft! The quality quite amazed me... I didn't expect this to be this soft~ I don't exactly know the material since everything on the label is written in Chinese, but they do mention it on the website so for the exact material I advise you to go to the website.

I think this would look great with a jumper in the winter and it would definitely keep me warm =). I am a bit hesitant about wearing it in Spring/Autumn because it may be a bit too warm? (or only when I'm cycling.. keke) I hope the pompoms stay on for a while because on another sweater with pompoms one came off =(

This was $21.00 and it was also on sale ^^ (I think everything I bought was on sale, kekeke) this cardigan is from the brand YUMI.

On the model this looked super cute, I just had to get it. But when I saw it in real life it did disappoint me... It was shorter than I thought (even though I'm only 155cm!) and it doesn't look that good with my legs... I did receive compliments from friends the day I wore this but I still felt it looked weird... also because it was so short =( Maybe you could pull it off if you had long skinny legs like the model... but not with my body shape... though I will try and combine it as good as possible, 'cause I feel like my money got wasted if I don't wear it... (an excuse to get into shape??!!)

But there are still plus sides to it! It has an elastic band (on the back side) so it does fit me well at the waist and the material isn't too thin.

These bloomers were $24.00 from the brand YUMI.

When I saw these shorts on YesStyle I immediately knew I had to get these. They were 50% off (I think and I Love 50% off). They looked super cute on the model and the lace hem gives the shorts a little bit of extra. Plus, I never saw anything like this in stores.

The fabric is quite thick and the shorts are lined with some kind of soft material. It has an elastic band which can stretch widely and it also has a drawstring so you can pull it even tighter if needed, at least I thought it was but it doesn't work that well...

In real life they also look super cute... However, me and my legs issues. They don't look super good (argh, maybe no shorts look good on me... stupid legs ... Lose weight!!). OK that was a bit too subjective but lets get down to the facts.

The crotch is quite high (meaning I can't pull the pants up very high). I wear it very low-waisted and it's still quite short on me (and hello I'm only 155 cm) If you don't mind the shortness (e.g. you have long, skinny legs) I'd recommend it, but otherwise, just leave it.

These were $15.00 from the brand YUMI

Doesn't the rabbit look too cute?! I already own a lot of print tees, so I have to stop buying now. But I just couldn't resist this cute face and the cute pocket bow detailing. And of course the pink colour makes everything even better. 

The fabric is thick enough to not be see-through, but I have tees that are thicker than this. But the fabric not being too thick can actually be seen as something positive for in summer: it will feel a lot more breezy when it's hot.

This top was $16.00 and from the brand Catworld. I must say though, YesStyle also has this t-shirt in other colours, from other brands like MayMaylu Dreams.

The bows are really cute right? I just hope they will stay on this top because they're just glued on so... Let's hope for the best!

The top is cropped as you can see and is really cute! I haven't worn this yet... since summer is worst than over.. But I suddenly have an urge to wear this as I'm typing this, with maybe a denim blouse or so? Should try it out...

Not really something bad to say about this (except for the fact it would've been better if the bows were sewn on the top) Of course this is see-through because it's crochet. Just wear a white tank top underneath and you're good to go!

This cost $28.00 which was a bit painful for my money, but I do like this very much and I haven't seen this in any stores near my home. It's from the brand YUMI.

I originally wanted this heart patterend knit top from Zoo but it was a bit too expensive for me, or this one was just way cheaper and Just as cute!




Looks pretty much the same right? But anyways, I chose this one. You can see the hearts more on the one I bought right?

It is quite wide as you can see on the picture, but it's not in an unflattering way. I like the way it looks. The only thing that bothers me when I wear it that the bottom of the top (ok, let's see if I can describe this properly) always goes up for some reason when I want it to stay down. Because if it goes up it looks super baggy and round and wide (which is something I don't like,, wouldn't want to look even wider than I already am) but further on I really like this top. Super cute right! And good quality!

This knit top was $18.00 and from the brand Catworld.

I have ordered from YesStyle before and I must say the shipping is quite fast (probably because it's express shipping). Usually it takes about 2-3 days to come to my doorway. There are unfortunately some times I have to pay tax, and usually that tax is pretty high! =( It makes me sad, because I absolutely love these clothes... (Maybe I should plan a trip to Asia >_<" and buy lotsa cute clothes) 

My sister did say that you should order around Christmas because so many people buy things and the Duane has so many packages they have to check, they usually skip out, or the chance "your package" will be selected is a lot smaller... So maybe a tip if you also have the tax problem!

Their packages arrive nicely in a box, if the Duane didn't open the box and took everything out, like they did this time. And the clothes are in nicely folded and packaged in a plastic bag. 

I'm quite content with the quality this time. I guess it's because of the brands. Some brands are really cheap Asian quality, but some are awesome! Like these.

Even though I love YesStyle and their clothes so much, probably because I love the Asian brands, I must say it can be quite expensive, compared to what you would normally pay if you were in Asia. However, I'm not in Asia so this is my last option... Or I'd have to order from the factory itself (like Taobao, they sell many clothes) but then I'd have the problem with shipping as well... and I'd even have to order through another person... So much hassle... I just have to move to Asia lah!!

Well, this is it for my "review" quite a long post but yeah.. Eat your heart out! Hope it was helpful in someway. Should study this afternoon =( boo, tests Y U so boring...?
