However, Shein does some really

However, Shein does some really shady business, in my opinion. Swimwear is also NOT returnable. The return process was shockingly easy AND not only did Shein reimburse me within 24 hours, they told me to KEEP the clothes.

I ordered twice the order never came so I give up with ordering with them!

This one I would buy again!

Which is not biodegradable.)

Are they making their clothing in an eco-friendly manner?

The tank tops are all by the brand Icyzone and the zip-ups are VUTRU.

The tank top Ive been throwing in my dryer, though. ), I did go into this with low expectations, but I was SUPER impressed with my swimwear from Shein.

Ethical companies cant afford to sell their clothing for such dirt cheap prices.

Below, is everything I will cover in my Shein review post. Update: Since Ive written this post, my Shein exercise clothing collection has grown considerably. As with the activewear, I expected them to be of terrible quality but I was, again, pleasantly surprised!

The writing, photos, and examples are all good.

This post is my honest review of Shein. I dont honestly know the answers to these questions.

I wouldnt care so much, except this set was $18 which is double the price of the other sets I ordered and it was worse quality!

It runs a little large, but I prefer my activewear tops to be baggier. This was the only time Ive had an order from Shein that looked absolutely nothing like the website photo, though.

These are dresses that are great to wear every once in a while. Note: I dont dry my exercise leggings, so they last longer.

This company is a complete scam.

Theyre great dresses to be photographed in, but not necessarily great for daily wear if that makes sense?

No matter what country I was in my order took about 2 weeks.

(Seriously, looking through Shein for a pair of shoes is maddening there are SO many pairs and a lot of duplicate listings too.

Ive been wearing the white one quite a bit this last year, and I really love it!

The sleeves almost always seem to be small and short on me, too. (Although, I did use them for swimming and snorkeling, and they were great.)

I do apologize for not publishing this sooner. I had actually forgotten this had happened until I was digging through my Shein emails looking for receipts and trying to figure out how much I had spent on them over the years.

However, there are talks of Shein opening brick-and-mortar stores too. Shein makes me upset, unable to return items.

However, for the purpose of this post, I wanted to try their shoes for myself.

After seeing the quality and warmth of my sweaters and cardigans Ive never been interested in ordering coats or jackets from Shein. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. The material can be stiff, scratchy, etc. While they were sending me free clothes they werent allowing me to earn an affiliate commission through them at all, and even as my site grew, they refused to pay for featuring their products on my site. Shein can be a great way to get trendy clothing at an affordable price.

Shein is NOT ethical.

Verdict:I will definitely order cotton underwear like this again from Shein.

(Below are a few more photos of my Shein skirts taken with my phone. Over the years and recently, Ive ordered from Shein: swimwear, swim coverups, dresses, skirts, shoes, pajamas, exercise clothing, purses, tops, underwear, and outerwear.

I dont have a lot of faith that this purse is going to survive too much heavy use. Verdict: Im a big fan of Sheins swimwear and would order it again.

Pay them fair wages? (It took exactly 1 week to reach me.

Thank you for supporting the brands that make this blog possible! Sheins swimwear coverups vary a bit in quality.

All 4 swimsuits were very comfortable, and they fit well.

), Honestly, Ive never returned anything Ive ordered from Shein. I wore these sandals right out of the box, and there were no blisters or other complaints.

The white crochet coverup above, I was more than pleased with for its $15 price tag.

Meaning, if you click a link and make a purchase, Have Clothes, Will Travel gets a very small commission at no extra cost to you.

And I am perfectly willing to fork over $80 for a good high-impact sports bra. The tank top is really soft and breathes well. Ive worn and washed the black ones more times than I can count, and the bras themselves are holding up great, but some of the cup inserts are falling apart see photo above. They dont have as many items to choose from as they do on their website, but you do get the benefit of Amazon shipping and Amazon returns then! Shein must also have an office/warehouse in Brunswick, NJ, as I do remember some of my orders only taking a couple of days when I was living in New Jersey.

The jacket above is cute, but part of the stitching is coming undone now in a few spots.

(There are only 3 pictured in this post, as the 4th set of photos is on a memory card that is currently MIA!) (A lot of Sitejabber reviews seem to reflect this too.).

Verdict: Same as dresses. The one above is the first dress I ever ordered from Shein. I had ordered some workout clothes that ended up just not being my style.

In full disclosure, Shein did send me free clothing when I first started blogging (Ill touch more on that in this post too), but I will mention if a piece of clothing in this post was gifted years ago, or if I paid for it.

If you are returning something beyond that 1st free return order, then $7.99 in shipping will be deducted from your refund (which is more than some of the items on Sheins website!)

I wore them all last summer and recently on a trip through Kenya, and they have been holding up really well.

(Im wearing bright pink underwear in these pics, and you cant see them.) You must use the shipping label they provide.

However, sizing and quality can vary but I mean, were paying $9 for PJ sets and tops we cant expect top-notch quality.

Below are my absolute favorites.

), Shein skirts are similar to Shein dresses, though, in my opinion.

Such asdo they treat their workers fairly? It also wrinkles the moment you touch it (and I am not about to start ironing the clothing Im going to sleep in).

The jacket above was gifted to me from Shein.

I like a lot of the clothing I have from Shein and do wear it frequently.

Right?!

So, it is worth noting, that yes, you can get designer dupes on Shein for a fraction of the price.

That cape above is still one of my favorite dress purchases from Shein!

They also expected me to sign over FULL PHOTO RIGHTS (which a brand should pay handsomely for).

Also, this email was several years old. I live in Wisconsin now, and would rather buy higher-quality winter clothing that is soft and will keep me warm. I would gladly order it in more colors. Note: absolutely none of the swimsuits that I ordered have any sort of support, though.

Theyre holding up very well!

So, there is almost no information on the internet (besides speculations and a splashy tabloid article) about whether or not Shein is ethical.

Theyre great to wear once in a while, for a night out but arent the greatest for daily wear. I have to say the dog in the work-out clothes section is darling!

I ordered 3 different pajama sets from Shein for this post.

This was after just a few months of wear.

It runs large, though, I am typically a medium and ordered it in a small.

For the most part, I will be focusing on clothing that I bought and paid for. I had avoided ordering shoes from Shein after my friend, Shannon, had ordered a pair of heels from Shein and one of the heels broke off while she was at work. Although, I dont love how the bottoms of that black and white bikini, below, fit. Verdict:Im a bit indifferent to Sheins shoes.

(Except the biodegradable question most of Sheins clothing is polyester.

This is what Sheins return policy is, though, per their website: You must send back and postmark your return packages within 45 days after the purchase date. Shein is a site I have been familiar with since well before I started my blog over 7 years ago.

For $9, though, you get what you pay for.

These are not suits youre going to want to play beach volleyball in. This post is my honest Shein review, and it will break down whether or not Shein is legit and lives up to the Instagram hype. Im typically a medium but ordered a small in this bra.

It is a fun dress, and I had been drawn to it because I loved some Laurence Xu designs I had seen at The Met earlier that year (which I cant afford to buy). They are getting a little faded and starting to pill a little, though, after washing and drying them about a dozen times now.

However, they arent Better Business Bureau accredited (they have a score of an F). Obviously, by the fake Amazon reviews they tried to get me to do I would say heck no!

They have a ton of cute options too.

For one free piece of clothing (that they were usually charging less than $15 for), they expected 1 full blog post and 1 full Instagram post dedicated to them and photo rights. These are just as good of quality as a pair I had ordered from Nordstrom last year, and these Shein leggings are less than half the price.

(The eye mask it comes with, though, is total garbage.).

Shipping is free on your 1st return for any order.

The white eyelet continues to be my favorite and my most-used item from Shein over the years, though. Wondering if Shein is legit? In comparison to my Shein skirts and dress, I do wear the majority of my Shein tops fairly regularly, though.

Quality also isnt going to be the greatest with each order, and you may very well be stuck with some pieces that dont fit.

This is the first return I had ever done with Shein, so it was also free.

They feature trendy clothing for incredibly low prices. Shein is an inexpensive online retailer that is based in China. They do some shady, shady business.

Sizing can vary too, so always check their sizing chart and know what your measurements are!

Actually, I like the Shein pair better, because they have usable pockets, and theyre more flattering!

(And funny enough, it was something they had sent me for a sponsored post.). Let me know in the comments!

), So, after this last year, I had become aware that I needed to update my collection of PJs and loungewear.

It looked absolutely nothing like the website photo (which I had called out in my blog post, but Shein didnt care).

I had ordered a purse as well for this trip. (I mean, theyre proudly advertising themselves as a fast fashion company.). However, on the flipside, Shein is ripping off some talented designers creations. Floral Dresses | Fashion Floral Dresses | SHEIN USA, Allover Floral Print Self Tie Swing Maxi Dress, SHEIN 3D Appliques Mesh Lantern Sleeve Dress, SBetro Off Shoulder Floral Frill Trim Split Thigh Dress, Simplee Floral Print Backless Wrap Split Slip Dress, SHEIN Floral Off Shoulder Split Thigh Shirred Dress, SHEIN Embroidered Mesh Bodice High Split Bardot Dress, SHEIN Solid Puff Sleeve Bodice Jacquard Flared Dress, SHEIN Tie Open Back Self Belted Floral Print Dress, SHEIN Exaggerate Ruffle Trim Jacquard Combo Dress, Zip Back Split Thigh Sheer Lace Dress Without Bra, SHEIN Sweetheart Neck Gigot Sleeve Floral Print Bodycon Dress, SHEIN Floral Print Mock Neck Bodycon Dress, SHEIN Floral Print Wrap Hem Belted Halter Dress, Shirred Waist Button Through Floral Maxi Dress, SHEIN Floral Print Keyhole Back Trapeze Dress, Ditsy Floral Print Fit & Flare Mini Dress, SHEIN Mock Neck Floral Print Pencil Dress, SHEIN Mock-neck Sheer Flocked Mesh Bodycon Dress Without Lingerie, LOVE&LEMONADE Sweetheart Ruched Floral Mesh Bodycon Dress, SHEIN Floral Self-Tie Braided Cami Mini Dress, SHEIN Floral Print Raglan Sleeve Patch Pocket Tee Dress, Floral Print Ruffle Trim Tie Neck Pleated Dress.

Im breaking down their clothing quality, how they tried to buy fake Amazon reviews from me, what their shipping is like, their return policy, and more.

Its very cute and matched all of my vacation attire. Update: Shein contacted me about one month ago (February 2022) to write about their new lingerie line. Oh my god, though, this floral PJ set is terrible!

I tried to email them, my email was returned indicating it was deliverable.

I felt like Chris Farley doing fat man in a little coat..

So, as I mentioned when I first started my blog, Shein sponsored me. Now, that amount isnt all at once. In my experience, this isnt a company that is necessarily going to take your money and run. I am also REALLY picky about sports bras. (Otherwise, its $7 for shipping.) But alas, when something seems too good to be trueis it?

The quality is OK.

I sent them my rates, and they did offer to pay me, but it was 10% of my typical sponsored post rate they wanted to build a long-term cooperation, and maybe could pay more if the first post goes well. Needless to say, I didnt take them up on the offer and just bought some of the gosh darn underwear myself!

Shein is not an ethical company. I should have tried this sooner! These underwear fit great and are SUPER comfortable. I am the most impressed with the quality of these pieces out of anything I had ever ordered from Shein.

Curiosity got the better of me, though, and I ordered 4 swimsuits from Shein for my recent trip to Turks and Caicos.

Ive ordered more than $600 worth of clothing from them over the years.

The white eyelet skirt, above, Shein had gifted me (and also the metallic skirt), however, the rest I purchased. Verdict: I like the cardigans and sweaters I have, and I wear them frequently but I dont think I will go to Shein for winter wear again.
