First of all, every single item is true to size. The size number may be a bit off-- as Topshop is a UK brand-- but once you've tried one Topshop item on, you're good to go!
Earlier this January, I ordered a Topshop blazer for approx. $70. Though the delivery process did take awhile (it only arrived yesterday), I was in no hurry to receive it, so I did not mind.
But why the love, you ask? Czech out their packaging.
I know, I know-- it doesn't seem too crazy, but I really do appreciate the care Topshop puts into their online orders. Although cardboard boxes give additional protection and are, for the most part, more aesthetically pleasing, I really do prefer the plastic bag. It's less bulky, less hassle, and less difficult to rip through and get at your new clothes!(NOTE: The random blocks are just hiding my name, mailing address, and whatnot.)
There was an additional layer of clear plastic wrap encasing the product, but I didn't bother to take a picture of it.
And here's the blazer! It's the grey PONTE JET POCKET BLAZER (here it is in white).
I already own one other Topshop blazer (STRUCTURED BLAZER in PALE ORANGE). I had bought it on sale in the Topshop in Soho and fell in love with the fit and quality. When I heard about the Free Shipping promotion (Sorry, it's already over =__=) I knew I had to get another one!
As I had mentioned earlier, the sizes are constant, so this fit me as well as the other one! Plus, this blazer is soft and, to a degree, warm-- definitely perfect for fall weather!
What really impressed me, though, is the fact that the blazer came in a plastic hanger. A hanger-- this takes online shopping to a whole new level of class. Am I over-excited? Could I be feeling this way only because my closet is currently undergoing a serious hanger drought? Maybe-- but so what? I have a new hanger, and it came in the mail for free.
This was definitely a good day.
