CHICWISH REVIEW 2023

It’s not the first and it won’t be the last time. Sharing Chicwish is a treat because I love their fashions. This brand offers a wide variety of whimsical and trendy clothing that falls into all different style categories—there’s something for everyone. Today, I'll talk about why I Love Chicwish, lots of Q&A about the brand and I'll show you my latest, gorgeous pieces form them!



This Lemon Two Piece Set is Phenomenal!

I just LOVE the back.


Who Is Chicwish for?

Chicwish is designed for anyone who is looking to add some affordable, classic options to their outfit rotation.

On the website, the brand boasts over 5,000 “blogger approved” styles that cater to a wide range of preferences and tastes. You’ll find long and flowy skirts, mommy and me sets, and sophisticated pieces perfect for the workplace.

Several of you bought this Tweed Blazer after you saw me wear it in Paris.
It's so good!

On top of that, clothing is always an ideal option when it comes to gift giving. If you’re not exactly sure where to start, the brand offers clear subsections that make it easy to filter your search. You can also opt for a gift card.

Why do I LOVE Chicwish?

I love Chicwish for several reasons. The biggest reason being the vast selection. You can find so many cute pieces including event pieces like a dress to wear to a wedding or showers. They even have some formal type dresses. Yet they also have fun everyday pieces and I love the feminine touches. Things are affordable and well made. Textures and fabrics are fun especially their knits and fun tulle skirts. The selection of outerwear is fabulous too and things I keep in my closet forever.  

This Faux Fur Jacket was icing on the cake to wear for my Birthday lunch in Paris! I'll own it for years to come.

What to Know When Shopping at Chicwish

Something I wanted to tackle in my 2023 Chicwish review is the most important and the most fun – shopping! After shopping at Chicwish for years, I have learned a few tips that make the process easy for me. That means minimal to no “fails” with items as can often happen when shopping online.

 

MOST IMPORTANT -Measure yourself. Make a note on your phone and store the measurements. Order pieces only by those measurements, not your typical size. Sizing can vary, and you don’t want to end up in the wrong one.

-Carefully review the item photos. I always look at all photos and use the magnifier to look at the material, quality, and detailing.

-Read the description thoroughly. Is the item lined? Are you okay paying for it if it isn’t? Look for details like that which would matter to you.

-Check reviews and photos posted of people wearing the item. They aren’t always there, but when available, they are helpful.

-Buy items seen on bloggers and influencers that you can read a review on before purchasing.

Head over heels for the 3D Mesh Heart Tulle Skirt.  

Lots of compliments on this one!

 

What is the Chicwish Return Policy?

I know return policies vary and are changing amoungst many brands. You can read the full return policy HERE. Essentially you can return your items within 30 days from the date the item was shipped to you. Returns are free for US and UK customers. A fee of $8 will be deducted from your return credit for customers in other countries. This is similar to how many other retailers conduct returns.

TRUTH:NOT a Fan of the below Dress so it would be a return.

Chicwish Shopping Experience
To sum my 2023 Chicwish review up, I have had an overall positive shopping experience in the 8+ years I have been using the website. I hope you found these tips helpful! Be sure to check out The Chicwish website for so much more!

The are my some of my favorite pieces below: 
This Exquisite Tiered Skirt that I wore to High Tea in London.

and the Fabulous black Hi Lo Mesh Skirt with the 

Happy fresh May week, make it a GREAT ONE!!

That's why I LOVE Chicwish...so many options!!






cabi FRONT ROW Fashion Experience

I love seeing, touching, and trying on cabi clothes in person. However, it’s not always feasible to attend an in-person show. That’s why I’m happy to have cabi come to me in the comfort of my own home. 

  

The cabi Front Row Experience felt a lot like sitting in the front row at a fashion show with some favorite girlfriends! It reminded me of our time in San Diego, but I didn’t travel near as far…just up the stairs to my home office, lol. It’s everything I love about the cabi Fashion experience but all online and in about an hour. During the virtual styling experience, everyone joins via cabi’s exclusive video conferencing platform. You can see one another, just like you would on a Zoom call, and you can chat with each other about your favorite cabi clothing pieces. 

I wore my Romance Scarf as a headband, my Matchmaker Topper 
and Perky Pullover sweater

During the experience, you watch short videos showing the pieces from the current season styled on a diverse group of women of different sizes and shapes! This ultra modern runway show collection of videos gets your fashion creative juices flowing even more when you see all the styling possibilities and versatilities shown. As styles you love appear via video on the runway, you can favorite the pieces you covent with a heart. 

Your cabi stylist guides you through the entire show, calling out various features of pieces and sharing personalized styling tips. My stylist, Liz, even had a majority of the pieces hung up with her so she could show us closer views of the items and fabrics. 

 

Once the Front Row Show was over and I was ready to shop, I had access to all the pieces I’d favorited during the show in one convenient spot. I also had access to my personal cabi closet, which contains images of the cabi pieces I already own. This was so helpful as I tried to think through what I considered buying. It gave me an opportunity to visualize how potential new purchases would work back with what I already own. I also had an opportunity to see some new Spring releases. Your stylist can also get you a cabi collection look book with all the season’s pieces. Loved having this during the show. 

 

I loved that everyone goes at their own pace, and my stylist, Liz, was right there we could ask questions. The checkout process was simple, and you’ll receive an email with order details and then another when it’s shipped. Here is what I ordered! So Cute! or I should say cabi CUTE!!

Easy Pullover HERE // Beaming Sweater HERE // Paperback Short HERE // Heartbeat Pullover HERE

Isn't this outfit adorable!

 

You can shop the entire cabi 2023 Spring collection HERE. If you have any questions about the cabi Front Row experience, click HERE or leave me a comment! So much fun! 


Happy New Week..Marvelous May!

How is Chicwish Sizing?

Everything I got from Chicwish fit TTS. Most items range XS-XL. Some items come S/M or L/XL. Each garment has the sizing details listed which helps determine which size you should order. My number one tip is to have your measurements on hand, and you’ll know your exact fit. Out of about 4 dozen pieces I have gotten from only one item was too small and one too big.

Fur Baby Sweatshirts 

Stella is a sweatshirt girl! She absolutely loves them and if they are within her reach, she will grab them and take them to the door because she knows if she puts on a sweatshirt she’s going somewhere, lol! All her Fufu clothes but the sweatshirts are the favorite. I too have a favorite brand for our fur babies and that is a seller on Etsy. I just ordered a third for her, the embroidered Name sweatshirt below, but isn’t the Santa Baby Sweatshirt terrific. A few of you have asked me for the link already so I thought I would share it here!




Victoria Emerson

I have a loved Victoria Emerson Cuffs for years! Their sales have been killing it lately for the holidays! At these prices, definitely pick up some for you too. Here are the ones I just got and are my favorites of the season.

My Favorite Household Tool

(AND the only one I'd be ok with getting 

for Christmas, lol)

This is the only household tool that I would be overjoyed with getting under the tree: The cordless DYSON V8 Original Vacuum!! Now, to be honest, I did not get this as a gift, Mr. Nine went out and got it when we first moved into our house but I have pretty much used it almost every day since then and I love it love it love it! Plus it is a major sale right now!


 Teddy Blake Bags

It’s no Secret that I love handbags by Teddy Blake! I own 8! Italian handcrafted luxury handbags without Price tags over $1000. Heck, Chanel is now even over 10,000.

Favorite Perfumes

I love it when someone ask what perfume I’m wearing because I can never smell it on my self, lol! But I definitely have my top five favorites that have been my favorites for years! The top one being Chanel.


Favorite Coffee

If you are local, you do not want to miss one of my favorite holiday open houses at the Refinery Coffee. My friend Regina is the owner, and she is the best coffee roaster in all the land! At this open house (Dec 2 from 9am-2pm), she not only allows you to use your punch card but offers two dollars off every pound of coffee. I’ve already put my order in. Loved taking Stella in the other day, of course in her red sweatshirt! I am also a big fan of Peet's Coffee and their medium roast.


What is Your Favorite Gift to 
Give or Get??

I should do part two to this one because I have lots more, but I don’t want to make the post too long and I need to get prepping all my sides for tomorrow.

 

See you soon and Have a 

Happy Thanksgiving my loves!!
