Vintage school girl // SammyDress Review




The lovely people at SammyDress sent over this chiffon shirt that has such beautiful black lace details, I was excited to put together an outfit with it. I played up on its vintage flair by tucking the shirt into a black midi skirt for that classic 50s silhouette. The fullness of the midi skirt was just appropriate to balance out the prim and proper collared shirt and definitely adds some swinging fun to my look! The white part of the shirt reminded me of my school uniform which gave me the inspiration for this classic vintage inspired school girl look.

As for my shopping experience at SammyDress, first up, I'm amazed by the great number of stuffs they carry. Just the women's clothes section, there is a whooping 18000 plus items! All neatly categorised so that we can find what we need. The next thing that hit me, the stuffs are incredibly cheap. Just take this shirt I'm wearing, it's less than ten bucks. Of course, for such a low price, we cannot expect too much of the quality of the clothes - the button holes aren't cut, the fabric is rather thin, the colour isn't the same as what is shown in their photos. Their photos are probably taken under warm lights and thus it appears beige but the shirt is actually true white. The size of the shirt also runs small, so if you are top heavy, go for a size bigger than usual. My shirt arrived in two weeks, which was a reasonable shipping time. All in all, I think SammyDress is a good site if you are looking for a variety of affordable clothes and don't mind the average quality.
