Gwynnie Bee December 2015 Review + Free Month Coupon

So excited to get this Gwynnie Bee box.  It arrived just in time for my holiday trip home. I am excited to have some fun things to bring with me so I don’t spend the whole week in my high school drama club sweatshirt (this has happened before).

Gwynnie Bee is a clothing rental subscription service. My body shape makes me a perfect candidate, as they specialize in sizes 10-32, and I am a solid 16.  When I started I added about 25 items to my closet (it’s a lot like creating a Netflix queue back when DVD subscriptions were their main business model, except there is no specific order) and they sent me the first three that were available. They recently added a feature that lets you prioritize items, so I marked a bunch of winter-ish tops as priorities. Then, when I return items they send more!

I really like that I have a lot of control – I pick the specific items that are in my closet.  I can go outside my comfort zone if I feel like it, or I can stay well within it. Overall, I put several items that would be a stretch for me in my closet, but also put plenty of items I think I will like so that any given shipment is likely to have something in it that I will wear.  

Karen Kane Etched Floral Peasant Top

I love orange, I love black and white, I try to be open-minded about floral.  This one was shown on the model with a black pencil skirt and looked cute.  I am not a fan of it on its own…

But I do like it better when toned-down under a cardigan.

Three Dots Slub Cowl Sweater Tunic

This one feels like the least risky of the bunch.  It’s a light to medium weight slub knit, so it should be good for when I am at home, given the unseasonably warm temperatures we are experiencing. Also, the boy said he liked it, so that’s a nice endorsement.

Spruce and Sage Black and White Draped Front Top

The shape of this is one of my go-to’s for comfort and tummy flattering! The pattern is a smidge busy, but not so much that I won’t wear this a few times. The boy remarked he felt like he was played Space Invaders. Can you blame him?

Mynt 1792 Boat Neck Blouse in Green Python

Yeah, the pattern has a lot going on, but I sort of somehow still like it.  Definitely more busy than anything I normally pick up, but I love a soft green blue, and this has a lot of that in it.

But, it felt a little wild, so I tried toning it down with a cardigan.  This one is a bit short, but I like the colors together. Maybe if I tuck in the top with a skirt…

This batch of Gwynnie Bee was a great one for mixing and matching with my current wardrobe.  The prioritizing feature is a great addition – two of these were marked as priorities, and here they are!
