How often did I stand in front of my wardrobe and thought to myself: What should I put on?How many times did I have the feeling that I have no clothes - even though my closet almost exploded, it is so full!How many times have I wanted a personal stylist who just tells me what to wear?The answer to all these questions is: often !!!
For all those who recognize themselves in the situation described above: There are online shops that provide you with a professional stylist for free!Didn't you know?Yes, me neither.That's why I was all the more pleased when a friend recently told me about the principle of "Curated Shopping" (German: "Care shopping").It is the magic word for all those who have no time or no bit of shops to squeeze through shops for hours so as not to know how to combine A with B!
How does "Curated Shopping" work?
Online shops like Zalando offer this service free of charge.Platforms such as Kisura or Outfittery (only for men) have even specialized in this.First, a style check is carried out online or found which clothes you prefer.Then you get a personal style consultant who puts together outfits for you.You will then receive your package within a few days.You can keep what you like - what you don't like, you just send back your back for free.That's it.
»Im Test: Mein Online-Stylist«Zalon in the test
I really wanted to try an online stylist, so I grabbed one on zalon.at (belongs to Zalando).There I first had to create a personal fashion profile and answer some questions: Which colors do you like most?Which parts are an absolute no-go?How much money do you spend on bags, shoes, shirts?
In part of the questionnaire, various street styles were shown to me.I had to decide whether I find the looks "hot or not".
Which look do you like, which not?
My personal stylist
In the next step, three stylists were suggested to me - I chose Julia.I then agreed with her a personal phone call in which I said Julia again exactly what I would expect from her service.Julia was totally nice, asked many questions and tried to "get to know" me.
You can even create your own styling profile on Zalon, upload your own looks or styles that you like.The stylist will always have access to this profile in the future and can orientate itself afterwards when selecting your looks.
The package is here!
When I got the note from Julia that she had now finished my outfits, I could hardly wait until the package was finally there.It only took 4 days - that was really quick!The look of the Zalon package alone is terrific.Now it went unpacked ...
The first impression
Julia created 2 looks for me.This immediately became clear when the box was opened.In a personal note, the skillful parts were presented again clearly.My first thought when unpacking: "Oh oh, these two sweaters on the top are not mine ..." However, I was very happy about the loving packaging with silk grinding!
The best moment (of my life)
Okay, maybe not my life but at least of the day.Namely when I discovered this extremely beautiful, ultimate cool Karl Lagerfeld bag in my box.I had given Julia the order to send myself a small BAG that you can wear both during the day and for the party on Saturday.It was immediately clear: Julia, you fulfilled your order!I searched for a bag for far too long and had finally found it!
My new outfits
In the Zalon box you can usually always find 2 looks, but the parts are chosen so that you can combine them with each other and thus create several looks.Here 5 possible looks out of the box:
Look 1: What I like: The dark blue coat is perfect for the upcoming spring, super comfortable wearing comfort.I am still considering if I keep it.Price: 79.95 euros. What I don't like: I don't like the sunglasses at all.Although you can't know that.Price: 12.95 euros.
Look 2: What I like: I love the leather laces!I would never have reached in the shop, but now that I tried it on, I can only say: Mine!Price: 134.94 euros. What I don't like: The colorful blouse is absolutely not my style.She looks totally good and somehow it is inexplicable to me why the stylist thought that I could like her.Price: 79.95 euros.
Look 3: What I like: I love everything about this outfit.The crop top (price: Euro 29.95) with collar is absolutely my style.The high-waisted rock (price: Euro 49.95) as well!I also think it's great that you can wear both the DKNY (price: Euro 219.95), as well as the camp field pocket (price: Euro 294.95) for all looks in the box.!
Look 4: What I like: Well, I love the sweater (left in the photo).It is exactly the piece of clothing that totally put me off at the beginning because I thought I would never wear colorful stripes ... so you can be wrong.Price: 34.95 euros. What I don't like: The look (right) is basically really cute, but the whole outfit is a little too good for me.
Look 5: What I like: The tight jeans of Leesind awesome.I like it when the pants end over the ankles.Also looks great with the shoes! What I don't like: the strip blouse.My friends said that the blouse was sweet, but that is exactly what bothers me.Is too good for me!
Conclusion
I kept shoes, bags and striped sweaters.I usually only wear black, so I'm particularly happy about my new, colored parts.The cool thing about a stylist is that she also gives you parts that you would never choose yourself.This is how you expand your style horizon and are guaranteed to have an "AHA effect".For example, I would never have thought that I love the strip sweater!If you get the package, you have the feeling that it is Christmas.When unpacking you are happy like a small child.I can recommend everyone to try the stylist service - after all, you have nothing to lose!He is free and you can also return the goods free of charge.Perfect!
PS: I've already ordered a second box.There is clearly a risk of addiction here!
