WHO ELSE HAS SEEN EVERLANE EVERYWHERE & BEEN WONDERING IF IT’S WORTH THE HYPE?
As someone who loves a quality basic I was absolutely curious about Everlane.
What does one do when they are a Curious George and want to investigate the situation? They do what they have to do and buy the product to find out for themselves. In full transparency, the team at Everlane sent me a few pieces (per my request) but you get where I’m going with this.
ARE YOU READY FOR THE REVIEW?
QUALITY: As someone who is a sucker for quality, I’m more than happy to pay extra for quality. Everlane‘s quality exceeded my expectations. Small detailing such as shoulder stitching makes a big difference in the overall look and feel of an item.
FIT: I find Everlane runs TTS.
PRICING: I find Everlane is moderately priced. The hoodie I’m wearing here is $54 and for the quality it is 100% worth it. This is an item I’ll wear for the next 5-10 years. I also have one of their dresses that retails for $40 which is only $10 more than you’d pay for a dress at Target, but the Everlane dress far exceeds anything you’ll find at Target in the quality department.
EXTRA CREDIT: Everlane is a sustainable, ethical brand. In an effort to not be wasteful or add to plastic waste orders are shipped in cardboard shippers and clothing is wrapped in paper. It’s a cool, no frills approach that we can feel good about.
EXTRA EXTRA CREDIT: Everlane doesn’t concern themselves with trends instead they focus on quality classic pieces that you can wear for years to come.

WHAT I’M WEARING
HOODIE: This is one of my new Everlane pieces, I’ve worn it at least once a week since I got it a month ago. No joke! I’ve been pairing it with black oversized 90’s joggers when I’m running errands. I absolulty love this hoodie. I’d say the hoodie is a medium weight, it has great stitching detailing. The fit is a slim crop with a bit of a drop in the underarm. Beware: if you have a big head the neck hole is small. Every time I put it on I have to squeeze my head through and I have a really small head.
JEANS: Hashtag. New Faves. As I was building my Spring Summer wardrobe the #1 item on the list was light wash straight leg-ish denim. Preferably Levi’s and here we are … my current favorite jeans. I ordered both my TTS and 1 size up and ended up keeping the one size up. I love them, I recommend them. PRO TIP: when shopping for Levi’s, go to their website. They have new email discounts and run frequent promos. I was able to get these for $33 during a Winter Sale.
BOOKBAG: Yes, it’s worth the purchase. I do recommend it. Point. Blank. Periodt. This bookbag is a Chanel dupe (not a knock off, you will not find any double c’s). I’m very particular about my handbags and don’t buy or use fast fashion handbags but this one I was willing to make an exception. Because this is a Chanel dupe the metal detailing of the chain straps are two-toned. One is gold, one is silver just like the Chanel bag. Overall, it’s a recommend!
