I placed my first order on SKIMS: my honest review
(All the links of this post are affiliated)
Hi everyone! I wanted to save the monthly review post for today because I'm so excited! This month, I placed my first order on the SKIMS website, and I wanted to share my honest review with you. I didn't post anything on my Instagram because I thought to give you exclusive access to my impressions.
I was on the market for good underwear for so long that I can't remember. I tried different brands and fits, but I always felt uncomfortable with my body and the fabrics. So, this month I decided to take the chance a place an order on the SKIMS website because I was so curious to try some of their underwear. I read so many great reviews, and the fits are incredible.
Shopping experience with SKIMS
The first thing that makes me the happiest is that I managed to convert my measurements into SKIMS size easily! Once I got my size, I went straight to the shop section. I was looking for basic underwear, black, nude and white. I know, but I need to build my underwear edit from scratch! I was so curious to try the Fits everybody line and the Cotton Jersey line. Speaking of bralettes, I love the triangle shape. I think it's the most flattering on my chest. I love a medium coverage of panties, so I went for the Cheeky brief.
The order I made on SKIMS
After browsing on the SKIMS website, which is impressive, I filled my cart and made my personal wishlist in my mind. Next, I shopped one triangle bralette in onyx and one in the nude (Clay tone) from the Fits everybody line, a triangle bralette in bone shade from the Cotton Jersey line. Then I took 2 cheeky briefs in onyx and 2 in clay tone to match the bralettes and 2 cheeky tanga in the bone shade for the third bralette. As you can see, I doubled the panties because this let me change easily during the week.
I made this order on January 15th, and it arrived on January 24th. I was so impressed by the speed because I shop from Italy, and I never thought that the order could come so quickly from the US!
First impressions
I'm so happy with SKIMS underwear. The bralettes are so comfortable that I never feel I'm wearing them. This is so important because I used to feel the bra torture during the day! Even if the bralettes don't have underwires or cups, these bralettes give me all the support I need. Also, the triangle is pretty deep, so it's easy to wear even if you have a low-cut neckline.
The matching panties are so comfortable that I can't find the right words for you! I was looking for high-waisted panties, but that makes me feel sexy at the same time. SKIMS panties are so soft and stretchy that you can adjust the waist as you prefer constantly feeling sexy!
The fabrics are perfect: soft, stretchy, easy to wash, supportive. I wear everything, and I can tell you that not only this underwear fits everybody, but it works with every clothes you have. Also, the clay tone is perfect for my skin tone since I'm so pale! I love the bone tone because it is almost a warm white, and the cotton jersey is perfect with this color.
Last but not least, the packaging made me feel so excited! I felt like I was unboxing a PR package even if I paid for everything. But, this is such a plus because I felt extra special!
