I was pretty excited to get my very first BUMPstyle Box last week, and even more so than when I got my first Stitch Fix Box, because I have discovered that finding stylish maternity clothes can be a bit tricky. I was really interested to see what kinds of maternity items would be included in my box.
First, let me tell you about BUMPstyle Box and the amazing concept behind it. BUMPstyle Box is a chic maternity boutique that is delivered to your door. There are usually 3-4 items that are hand-selected based on your style profile that you fill out when you join. The items could be dresses, pants/jeans, shoes and even accessories! Along with your box, you receive a note from your personal stylist who helps give you ideas about how to style each item, and then you get 5 days to try on and decide if you want to keep any (or all!) of your items.
The styling fee is $30 and you get to apply that $30 to any of your items. If you spend over $150, your styling fee of $30 gets waived! All of the items that I received were awesome, but I chose to showcase my four favorite pieces from the six that I received. Read below to check them out…
The first item that I loved was this color-blocked blouse. It was shorter in the front and longer in the back. It was really comfortable and I felt like it did a nice job covering me up, but still allowed me have some shape. I also really liked the color combo.
The second item I chose, were these black lacquered jeans. These jeans were actually my FAVORITE item! I have tried to avoid wearing jeans my entire pregnancy so far. As my body has been changing, all I have wanted to wear are leggings. I also have a really hard time finding jeans that fit me, so when I saw them, I thought to myself, “These are so cute, but I doubt they will fit me.” Once I put them on, I didn’t want to take them off. It didn’t even feel like I was wearing jeans! Instead of having a front panel like most maternity jeans out there, these jeans had two elastic panels on the sides, and this made them extra comfortable. The black lacquered sheen also made these jeans look a little dressier as well.
The next item I chose was this striped cowl neck tunic. It looked so comfortable, that I couldn’t wait to put it on. I also knew that this would be a great top to wear with leggings (and as I mentioned, I am ALL ABOUT leggings these days!) Also notice I am wearing those badass lacquered jeans again! 🙂
My other favorite item in the box was this dress! I thought this dress would be perfect for any upcoming holiday parties and I also loved that I didn’t have to wear much jewelry with it, since it already has this gorgeous jeweled neckline.
If you saw my post from yesterday, you will know that I also paired this dress with a leopard fur vest that I had. Its cold up here in Boston, so adding some fur gave me some more warmth and a little more a of a holiday glam look.
Overall, I absolutely adored my BUMPsyle Box. My stylist picked a great assortment of items to choose from and everything fit perfectly! The only downside of the BUMPstyle Box was that all the items were pretty expensive. I don’t mind paying a lot of money for items that I love, but its hard to justify spending a lot of money on maternity items that I will only wear for a short time. I thought that the BUMPstyle Box would be a wonderful gift idea for an expecting mama though. When your body is going through so many changes (for me this is the first time to experience this) its nice to get some stylish items sent right to your door that make you feel both beautiful and glamorous.
Thank you to BUMPstyle Box for allowing me to do a review!
