Hey, fashion friends! Let’s have a little heart-to-heart about those brands that pop up all over our feeds, promising stylish pieces at prices that seem almost too good to be true. We’ve all been there, right? With TikTok buzzing with recommendations, it’s tempting to dive right in. But can we really trust these trendy labels? Spoiler alert: I’ve been burned before. 🙈 After some serious scrolling, I finally decided to take the plunge into the world of one brand that caught my eye: Cider. 💁♀️
What’s the deal with Cider?
Cider is all about making fashion accessible without breaking the bank. Think chic tops, dresses, shoes, and accessories that keep you on-trend without that hefty price tag. I mean, who doesn’t want to look cute without spending a fortune? 🙌 From wedding guest outfits to casual wear, they’ve got it all. I gathered a crew of fellow editors, each with different body types and styles, and we decided to put this brand to the test. Who else thinks this could go either way? 🤔
As we dove into our Cider haul, I felt a mix of excitement and skepticism. Would the quality hold up? Would the sizing be spot on? We began trying on a variety of styles, and let me tell you, we had a lot to say! Here’s a sneak peek at some of our favorite finds that made the cut:
Chic pieces that caught our eye
First up, let’s talk about this adorable gingham shirt. It’s giving me total summer picnic vibes! 🍉 The slightly puffed shoulders and scalloped collar really amp up the cuteness factor. Meg, one of my fellow editors, couldn’t stop raving about how flattering the fit was for her petite frame, and she was bombarded with compliments! Talk about a wardrobe win.
Next, we stumbled upon a cozy cardigan adorned with 3D flowers—because who doesn’t love a little whimsy? Olivia declared it her favorite from the haul, praising its softness and playful touch. It’s those little details that elevate a basic piece into something special, right? 🌼
And then there was the butter-yellow dress that made us swoon. Jasmine couldn’t believe the quality for the price and mentioned how versatile it is for day-to-night transitions. But heads up—some pieces may look wrinkly in pics even if they’re not in real life. Funny how that works! 📸
The overalls we tried were a hit too, especially with Kim, who found them surprisingly stylish while maintaining that laid-back vibe we all love. The barrel-leg silhouette is trendy yet timeless, making them a staple for years to come. Who else loves a good pair of overalls? 🙋♀️
Hits and misses—let’s keep it real!
Of course, not everything was a perfect fit. We had some ups and downs with sizing and fits, especially in the petite section. One of my editors found the denim to be unexpectedly long, even for a petite style! But hey, sometimes a little roll-up is all you need to make it work. 😉
As we wrapped up our fashion experiment, it was clear that while some items shone bright, others didn’t quite meet our expectations. But that’s the beauty of trying new brands—sometimes you find hidden gems, and sometimes you just learn what doesn’t work for you. So, are we adding Cider to our go-to shopping list? I’d say yes! But always with the mindset of exploring, trying, and sharing our thoughts. 💕
