I filmed this box a few weeks ago but had to work on audio issues, as it was prior to receiving my new microphone. As such, this box has already been returned to Dia. Also, on a personal note: BOTH OF OUR AIR CONDITIONERS ARE WORKING BEAUTIFULLY!!! Until last week, I do not think that we had had a full week of comfort! I’ll be answering all comments from my sweet, sweet 72 degree house!!
I am sorry for the negative/message tone in this video, but I did want to draw attention to the price discrepancies that I have found with Dia. Please note: I do enjoy getting Dia boxes and will continue to do so, I will just always be certain to price shop!

The yellow shirt, yellow skirt, and butterscotch jacket was an amazing combo on you!

I love the yellow cold shoulder dress on you it's beautiful. and i love the Golden rod top with the skirt.

@BigonStyle Год назад

I never used to like yellow on me, but I think all of those are beautiful! I think that it must have something to do with the tone. Thank you, Ann!

@pamelaatkinsonscats2873 Год назад

The little skirt is adorable. If you can buy it for $10, I think you definitely should. Regarding jeans and trousers, I don’t wash them every time. I use panty liners so I wash them after every 6th or 7th wear. With skirts, it’d be even less often. I wash t-shirts and anything that touches my armpits directly after every wear. I use a short, cool cycle. Hope that’s not TMI.

@BigonStyle Год назад

No, that is perfect info! I need to start trying it, less laundry and water used!

@pamelaatkinsonscats2873 Год назад

@@BigonStyle And also use much less laundry detergent than the makers recommend or it won’t rinse out properly. They’re in it to make money.

@lindamaturesass Год назад

Hi Meredith. Sorry about your power. I'm at the age where I would be like 😱🥵. Lol. I am with you about the prices. I would have done the same thing. Heck, I have even asked stores for a price adjustment when something I just bought gets marked down 40% the next day. I feel they definitely could have told me. I love the City Chic pieces. FYI- " always check theirs and Macy's prices first." 😉 There's usually a sale going on. *** Also, many stores are carrying well- known brands. I am seeing both City Chic & Eloquii on Macy's, Walmart and Jessica London's sites.🤷🏽‍♀️ Go figure!"

@BigonStyle Год назад

I really love City Chic, you better believe I’m going to be shopping around from here on out! The price disparity is just so random and high. Our house is so nice and cool! This summer, we have had the A/C go out twice, then this long power outage…I’m Ready for just a nice cool, boring remainder of summer! I have no idea how early settlers lived out here with no A/C!

@nancywhite5629 9 месяцев назад

I LOVE the blue top! The yellow floral dress was fabulous on you, and I love the skirt/shirt/jacket combo you put together. Personally, I look awful in yellow, so it wouldn't be for me, but on you it looks great. I'm so glad you spent the time to explain the pricing and the disconnect between Dia & Co and City Chic, it made it so much more understandable, but I'm right with you sending the things back and then buying the same things from City Chic--after all, we all need to save money! I'm really enjoying your channel, and I'm so glad I discovered you! Have a great day!

@mammajamma4397 2 дня назад

I learned years ago not to wash jeans after every wear. I haven't counted how long I go between laundry sessions, but I definitely get multiple wears out of each washing. Fashion nova jeans work best for my body, and I've been able to wear the same 2 pairs for years now.

@kathibarnard5223 Год назад

I absolutely love the skirt outfit on you!

@BigonStyle Год назад

Thank you, Kathi!! I was surprised by the colors, not normally my shades, but I loved the look!

@AA-ji8gq Год назад

This was a very cute box. I totally agree with you on the price variations being a little absurd. I understand Dia and co must generate a profit and take into account the styling service. It, however, gives customers a feeling of almost feeling cheated when sent highly discounted items, while still charging near retail price. I wonder if these companies partner together with these brands to get their clearance items for a discounted rate. I loved the skirt and dress on you. My favorite item, however, was definitely the blue top.

@BigonStyle Год назад

The blue too was the winner!! I kind of wonder the same thing regarding clearance items. In all honesty, it would not bother me to purchase a $60 top from last season if I loved it (I would never know that it was not current!). But when I can go elsewhere and find the same top for $25 is when I get a little upset. Price per item, they are fairly close to Wantable and Stitch Fix, but I do not regularly find items from those companies cheaper elsewhere. I am always long winded, I’m sorry!

@ankaretwells7618 11 месяцев назад

I love your videos! I'm also really impressed that you keep saying 'City Chic' over and over - if it was me by the third time I said it my brain would turn it into 'spitty creek' or worse!

@jadefire2817 10 месяцев назад

I loved the little faux suede "shacket"? Shirt? It drives me nutty that they refuse to put closures on the fronts of things anymore! I love ruffly tops but feel like I wish they 'd put button or tie closures on them! I think I'd definitely get that skirt if you can get it for $10. It looked so cute with that yellow top, for an office look, even!

@kmosh8333 Год назад

It is to the point where Target, Walmart, Wayfair, Kohls, and Amazon are all selling the same third-party items. It is frustrating. I think less of Target for doing this.

@BigonStyle Год назад

I was kind of shocked! After looking further, Target and Walmart only had the size 18, so whatever third party seller is just purchasing the dress from City Chic for $20. I do not like it!

I read somewhere where it was recommended to keep your jeans in the freezer and do not wash after every wear, haven't tried it but if the temps keep going up it may become the norm for me, lol. The black dress is very cute, a cami would be great under it. Oh my the yellow dress is lovely and very flattering on. The skirt and goldenrod with the jacket is very styling.. one amazing pieces in that box.

@whoooami2090 Год назад

You’ve got to realize all these subscriptions box companies are marking up the prices because they are supposed to be providing a styling service to their customers and paying the additional help to do so. However, I prefer to search for things on my own. I have to gibe it to the sub box co. Because I wouldn’t have known how certain brands fit because most local stores don’t Cary them in store, only online. To me these boxes sell stuff that is going on clearance or no longer being carried in the store. That’s why you can’t always exchange for another size.

@BigonStyle Год назад

I agree with you on these companies needing to mark up items to pay for the service. I do see a very big difference in Stitch Fix/Wantable vs. Dia and Co/DAILYLOOK. They all have comparable high prices, however, I can very rarely find the exact same options from SF and Wantable online. With Dia and DL, it is typically about half of the items that I can find significantly cheaper. In several cases, the less expensive price has actually been on the Dia and Co website. I for sure agree that all of these boxes have opened my eyes to other brands! I love having items selected for me and discovering styles that I never would have tried!

@Frankie-Woody Год назад

I have noticed that Walmart is saling 3rd party items online. Thanks for giving us other places that have the items cheaper. I do try to look up items to see if I can find them cheaper. Loved the blue top on you. The yellow print dresses was very cute on you. I would get the little $10 print skirt. Our AC is working hard here. Three days no power is no fun. I may wear something 3 to 5 times. If it gets dirty or sweating where wearing. I toss it in the washer.

@BigonStyle Год назад

We very thankfully have my parents house 8 doors down, their power came on a day before ours, which was crazy given the proximity! I have not ordered the skirt yet, but it is in my cart at City Chic!

@karlenebond1992 Год назад

Totally agree with the Dia pricing. I got a jacket in one of my boxes that I totally loved priced at $69, but found it on final sale at Nordstrom Rack online for 17.98… I didn’t want to insult Dia by price matching that low. I’m sure they would price match something reasonable. So I definitely look it up before purchasing. I also agree that it is bad for the wholesaler to undercut the pricing of their retailer. If it is happening that consistently then Dia should be informed and maybe drop them as a brand they carry. You should try the Kut from the Kloth Natalie or Quincy high rise bootcut jean that is a 33” rise… it was too long for my 5’7” height but would probably work for you. The fit was amazing but alas you can’t really hem a bootcut more than an inch or so.

@BigonStyle Год назад

That is too large of a price discrepancy to just keep. I hope that you ordered the jacket/ $17.98 is a steal for outerwear that you love! I just looked up the Natalie jeans and they are on sale on the Kit from the Kloth website! Thank you, Karlene. You are right about hemming bootcut, the same with rolling them, they are really meant to be the length that they are cut due to the flare. I really appreciate your awesome recommendation!

The jeans instructions are correct, you aren't supposed to wash denim as much as other clothing. A great tip is to stick your worn jeans in the freezer for a few hours to refresh between wash dates.

If city chic is clearance pricing items it’s previously sold to others, can you still get the size you want? I ask, because whenever I try to purchase something for the kind of markdown like that it’s only in a size 0 or extra small.

@BigonStyle 5 месяцев назад

Alta, City Chic carries sizes sizes 12-24, so they may not have what you are looking for at all- but if you want to look, you can click on the dropdown menu, choose outlet, then you can choose ‘shop by size’ and choose the size that you are looking for. rstyle.me/+GAqvqWhAZNWqSEW8twAGig That is my link to an item in the outlet- if you click the red words ‘winter outlet -everything $40 and under’ it will take you there!
