      If you want to wear the Terra cotta dress you can put a belt on and pull up the material. It will shorten the dress and give you a cute look. That's what I would do. Also, they sell straps on Amazon for your purse. You can change it up!

    I looked at the Wantable FAQ and it says if you want to return your items after payment has been charged you have 30 days as long as they are unworn and still have the tags. All you have to do is contact customer service so don't cry, you can get your money back.

    -the single earbud I wear around and never directly and immediately put back in it's case

      Agree. Or not subscribe. There are some who truly need a stylist's assistance in dressing. It doesn't seem that is case here but maybe to save time shopping - convenience or being in remote location with few stores. There are so many options to shop on line. I prefer go look try on purchase if its met my liking option. We seem to be veering away from that more and more. Same with parfum... I want to try it and walk with it deciding if its one I might buy. I saw comment about mstbe its their fall items arriving early. Maybe. But all are dated style not being all that classic. Frankly...the items didn't appear well made or made to last. $350 is insulting. The TJ Max probably has comps at $100 total - or less.on last season sale... And more attractive better quality items. Ranting away. Sorry. I gave a friend OR FEW who ONLY wear highest end and the brand is everything - not for quality but ego and show. Most people enjoy flattering well crafted clothing - this box was not a good example for any budget... But there is someone out there who wants to utter the words "My Stylist chose this"... As of it will make it worth the unsightly cost or not appear ill fitting or in some cases- ugly attire. Very thankful Alexandria is not one of these types and shares opinions with visuals to viewers in a straight up manner on merchandise - with trying on and fair reasoning- good bad inbetween. I am fond of the truth in the saying You Get What You Pay For. Unfortunately- that is not the case in this box and many other opportunistic vendors so common now days.
      Value can be relative by personal choices and desires- and I also respect that. Not seeing that here either. 3 days to try and return... 👎 no. At very least 2 weeks - is better. I prefer the onlines when I can see what is being sent before a purchase. Make up with spoilers and the OH so FUN advent calenders maybe somw exception and room for a few curator surprises. Usually- all are no refund as is purchases and if one or two items makes purchase worthwhile its snoopy happy dance- I wonder if being that in this box subscribers have a personal stylist, Is it possible to have a direct discussion with stylist? Also, curious now about having local stylists and the fees for that service. Some career centers offer this by appointment only as a part of their employment services. Its not for casual or daily wear though. They worked in teams when I heard of it years back. Another consideration is price caps and Is it possible to be allowed a range choice with a no greater than amount - and acceptable brands. A good stylist can realistically tell client up front if they are not able to meet client expectations in budget as well as an expected price range based on the client's preferences. Maybe getting to deep in topic. Inflation is happening fast on every thing. Maybe a $6.00 tee is now going for $30. ?

    Surely the fact they’re sending you clothes that fall outside the profile you gave them AND that they’re sending Fall and Winter clothes in June instead of season appropriate stuff is some kind of breach of contract on their behalf that you could use to get a refund? Unless that box is for the coming season i.e their fall box?

    • @Loki-and-Thor
      @Loki-and-Thor 2 года назад +56

      The invoice thing said “this splash of summery pieces will keep you cool as the weather gets warmer” so I doubt that it’s an autumn/fall box.
      The black top looked like it was a factory second/reject as the sleeves were different sizes and should definitely not have been included, even at a discount.
      I presume that the terms and conditions have something to cover them sending you out of season and out of profile stuff. I do wonder if there is an actual stylist or it’s the name of the person who picked the items a computer program suggested and packed the box that is added on the invoice and called a stylist.

Padding out a box with items the customer has clearly stated they are not interested in is such bad business, lazy and inept.

    All of those clothes are cut incorrectly-the seams aren’t centered, the sides aren’t cut evenly, every shape is wrong. Shame on them for sending out horribly made clothes. They had to have bought this stuff as part of a clearance lot of cheap fast fashion stuff that didn’t sell. (The jacket was the only thing that looked okay, although it would be cuter cropped in length a little more.)

    LOL. Tried Wantable. I have a style I knew they couldn't accommodate, but I was looking for some cute basics. Legit asked for tight crop tops, and short skirts, short dresses. I don't think they have clothes that are form fitting or short. If they do, I never saw it. In the 2 boxes I received everything was baggy and unflattering, and knee length or longer. They also sent me seasonally inappropriate clothes despite my specifying I wanted summer clothes. I don't think they read the profile, or maybe they just don't have a very wide variety of clothes to pick from. I would email them and tell them how much you hated it, and you made a mistake and see if they'll take them back. Worth a try...

    I had a similar issue with the petite box Short Story. Everything was hideous and against type for what I requested and my listed preferences. It was all clearly from last fall (got the box in May). The worst offender was a shirt that was my least favorite print/color/style/sleeve length all in one shirt (animal print/orange/box/3/4 sleeve). To make it worse, I googled the items and found out they were all Macy's clearance; so what the box claimed was worth $388 was actually $71!

    OK I adore those brown trousers!! I am disabled. When I wear a Button and zipper it causes pain in my abdomen because I have nerve pain. When they don't look like elastic trousers and look more average and dressy, it can be really nice and different from a lot of most of the stuff you find that is elastic. I.e leggings, joggers, loose trousers that don't make you feel very dressy. I'm glad you caught yourself and remembered if it seems odd to you, it probs just is made for ease of someone else. 🙂

      LEAST 2 weeks to see if you can even make the clothes work with your wardrobe, including time to open and go through the clothes - and you can select your clothes there. They’re giving you the time equivalent to you going to the mall and trying on clothes, with the “convenience” of having it delivered and someone picking out the clothes. That’s even more of a reason to give additional time!

Sometimes they just don't get around to sorting it, or if you have a PO box, you don't always get a parcel notification even though they might have it on hand. I've picked up a parcel by just going to the post office and asking because the company told me it'd been delivered, then I received the parcel note for that same parcel 2 wks later.

    Hi Alex, are you into self torture? So far each of these and the home goods subscriptions have made you quite upset at the over priced crap they send you. While there are definitely some keepers in every box, it is not worth the pain, frustration, and tears, especially with a ridiculously short deadline! I honestly would be right there with you forgetting the box even existed for who knows how long before I remembered it, and then it would take me awhile to find where I put it to keep from cluttering my small house.
    Now onto the goods received, the blazer looks fantastic on you and it is very Miami Vice, only in a great way because it is black, any other color would make it too dated and not wearable, in black ,it's new and fashionable with a t-shirt and jeans, or a dress, either way a keeper and a fair price. The green t-shirt is as you said, just a t-shirt, if it's made of modal I would keep it just for the softness modal is, I love soft clothes and will buy clothes I normally wouldn't just because they are modal. That said, it is way overpriced for that type of fabric, if it is Pima cotton, it is just as soft, but super expensive no matter what style it is. If I were to receive that top and had to keep it, say it was a gift, or I forgot as I would have also, I would immediately take scissors to the neckline and cut a v in it, plus take off the sleeves. I cannot wear a traditional crew neck without feeling choked or just uncomfortable, and hey it's hot who needs tight sleeves? The jeans while fitting great almost everywhere on you, give you, how can I say this politely, I can't, turkey toes. The rest of the stuff is overpriced trash.
    In the little intro card they provide they mentioned summer, cool, and comfortable, that alone is a lie, and they had better refund you every dime you paid for that box, accept your return, and your cancellation without argument or I would take them to small claims court! I would demand full cooperation and an apology for the winter clothes they sent you in summer, in Georgia!
    One more thing, smuggling potatoes in these pants had me roaring with laughter, I replayed that part a few times, thank you. Laughter has been a rare commodity as of late and it was so needed, you made my entire day!
