After ditching this brand for a bit, I recently made a purchase and figured I would share an Honest Review of Victoria’s Secret! I was interested to see if the quality lived up to what I remembered. I even had some of those coupon cards they used to give out.

It definitely was nostalgic purchasing from them and I really was impressed with what they offered. I liked the gender neutral Pink line. The website stuff looked great but I was excited to get the stuff in and try it on. The links below are affiliate links so I do make a small commission if you purchase!

Cotton Oversized Sleep Shirt

Shop Here

I have a few of these older tees and I was excited to get this new one. It might even exceed the softness of the original I have and I really love this lilac color. I sized up to XL because I love an oversized shirt and it’s still a little short. I would say this is more of a boxy tee but I still love it.

Modal Short Pajama Set

Shop Here

I’m a sucker for a pajama set and this one is pretty iconic. I love that it’s short sleeve because it’ll be great as the weather gets warmer. The quality of this is great too. It’s buttery soft and I got a S. Definitely fits exactly how I would want it to! These sets are pricy but I feel like you have pajamas for years so with a coupon it makes these worth it.

Cotton Foldover Flare Leggings

Shop Here

This is where the quality went south. I loved my yoga pants from Pink. These, I do not love. They material is a cotton blend and they’re definitely see through. The old ones I had were like a buttery soft material and these are a bit scratchy. The cut is still the same but the quality and material is definitely not what I remember.

Victoria’s Secret is definitely a hit or miss for me now. I can see why I slowly stopped shopping there because not all their pieces lived up to the price and brand. With their coupons it makes the pieces affordable but I can’t say I would shop their full price again.

I did end up keeping the yoga pants and have worn them, but they just aren’t like the originals. I hope you liked this honest review of Victoria’s Secret and let me know any other brands I should review!

This post has been a long time coming. I have wanted to get my hands on Skims by Kim Kardashian for the longest time but just never got around to it. I love her style and recently the Skims advertising has been doing the most and really sold me.

Whenever you think about the Kardashian/Jenner clan, sometimes we don’t always think of affordable products. I was pleasantly surprised that the items I purchased on Skims were actually fairly priced. I was definitely a Victoria’s Secret/Aerie girl for intimates but as you’ll see after this honest review of Skims, I might be a changed gal.

Soft Lounge Boxer- Size S in Onyx ($36)

I actually haven’t warn these boxers as often as I thought I would only because it’s been cold. I purchased these to wear to bed in the summer and I still think these are going to be game changing. Overall the material is so soft and breathable. Like I said, I think this will truly be amazing on hot summer nights!

Cotton Rib Tank- Size S in Soot ($34)

What I love about Skims is truly how versatile the basics are. This tank is amazing for lounging or you can go out in it. The material reminds me of the boxers where it’s super soft and breathable. I do need a bra with this if I’m going out out but for lounge it holds everything in how I’d want it.

Fits Everybody Super Cropped T-Shirt- Size S in Onyx ($42)

This cropped top was truly the reason I even purchased from Skims. I have heard nothing but great things about this basic crop top. I heard people use it to lounge in, go out for errands in or actually dress is up so I knew I need to have it.

This truly has become my go to top. I love it with sweatpants and sneakers for a comfy street style look. I know the price is a bit steep for a crop top, but I love this and will absolutely be investing in more.

3 for $36 Underwear

I ordered the Cotton Jersey Dipped Thong Size S in Soot, Cotton Jersey T Shirt String Thong Size S in Soot, and Fits Everybody T String Thong Size S in Onyx. When ordering, I wasn’t planning on purchasing underwear but I felt like I should for this review.

I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and fit of everything. They are truly so comfortable and I especially love the cotton jersey dipped thong. It fits so well and the cotton material is seriously buttery. I found that their quality was definitely better than VS so the 3 for $36 was definitely worth it for me.

I hope you enjoyed this honest review of Skims! Let me know if you have any items and what you think of them. I’m planning on purchasing some shape wear and more lounge pieces so let me know if you want a part two to this post!
