DON'T USE
September 11, 2023

This site is entirely a scam. They will take your money for nothing and lie about it, when you provide proof they ignore the proof and keep your money. If you do manage to get anything from them I promise you it will be garbage

Purchased 2 plus size blouses. IMO the sizing chart is very wrong. Too bad. The material and style was great. Just didn't fit properly. They MUST get prepaid returns. Very expensive however, they did give a couple options.
Would I order from them again? Probably not, because of the return policy.

I received my order and the sizes were TOO BIG, GOOD "luck" in trying to be able to return for a credit.Then, I was able to request a credit and have yet to hear from them within the 7 DAYS...and
They just sent me another package with the EXACT items that were in the FIRST order and the "missing" watch! NOT worth the price paid for my items and the shipping is EXPEN$IVE! Beware, just shop with another site. HEADACHE and a pain! Money wasted!

Unfortunately, as I am very tall, old and fussy, everything was very neat and prompt…
Two pairs pants were too small at the waist, sweaters too short and too tight in the waist... The bracelet was perfect. Unfortunatly, by now, too many things should be exchanged and returned.I can't afford to lose my money like this…

Pleasantly surprised
September 8, 2023

The sale prices of the shirts I bought was leaving me the question of what kind of quality I would be receiving but I was pleasantly surprised by the look and feel of the products I received. They fit great and people have commented on how nice they look on me. The colors are true and they have washed well. Good bang for the buck in my opinion.

I ordered a t-shirt with a front pocket, received one with a line simulating a pocket. Very obvious on the pictures.
They responded quickly for a return, however, the choices are:
-keep it and we will give you a coupon worth 80% of the value of the t-shirt,
-keep it and we will give you 60% of the value of the t-shirt - picked this option and received 60% of the price, no refund on taxes... no way to know if they will pay the taxes to the government or keep it for themselves (in my case, this meant an extra 15 %),
-send it back for full refund.
They did refund within 48 hrs.
OTHERWISE: good quality material, and good looking product.

To my surprise the two items I ordered were custom made and therefore non-refundable. If you are looking for something you might return, make sure your item is not "Made to Order". Customer service worked with me to find an adequate solution, but I wish I knew this information before ordering.

LightInTheBox attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond

Zero quality control
September 5, 2023

2 orders, 7 items. First order: Both items wrong. Second order 2 items were the wrong size, 2 other items color was way off from picture. Company does not care. And they make returns almost impossible.

Contacted by Megha. Very accommodating. She offered a solution. I accepted. Customer service is responsive and very fair. I have since made another purchase.

Customer service gets 5 stars.
