2012 Style

I finally took the plunge and signed up AND ordered from StyleMint!

What is StyleMint?

StyleMint is he brainchild of fashion designers and style icons Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen and parent company BeachMint. StyleMint offers members a revolutionary online shopping destination with the unrivaled experience of a personal stylist. The best part? Members-only access to Mary-Kate and Ashley's exclusively designed and styled T Shirts, with new styles to choose from every month.

I have been very pleased with my first StyleMint purchase... the Newbury in White.


So much so I went back to get one in EVERY color... 

Alas, they are pretty much sold out of all the colors I want in my size (boo hoo) 
but I believe tomorrow Jan 1 there should be a whole new collection to choose from!
Hopefully a whole new stock of Newbury in White!!

Here is a special deal of the evening on a StyleMint 's Facebook Pag:


Kinda fun to add to your wardrobe, eh?

I am sure you are wondering about sizing, etc.

The sizing for me on my first purchase seems to be true to size. 

If you keep up with the Facebook buzz you can find out whether or not to size up or down, but it seems like most items are true to the published size below.

If you fall between sizes just size up. 



I ordered a size 1 (XS/S- 2/4) and it fits perfectly. 

I normally wear a 2 or 4 on top at JCrew and Gap. 

I did order just the other day the Melrose T in a size 2 since they were out of size 1. 


According to the size chart its only an inch bigger so I figured it would be a good way to see which is better for fit the 1 or 2. 

I'll keep you posted!

Overall what I love about my Newbury T is how soft and snuggly it is! 

I really want like 5 of them in white and wear it everyday. 

The only other tshirt that I have ever owned that I loved this much was made by Velvet.
Those Velvet Ts run you about $75-$100 so $29.95 for a  tshirt that is that same amazing feel and quality is a no brainer for me. 

I am hooked!

So glad you took the plunge! Told you you'd love it! Just ordered the Newbury in pink carnation today. Have the white in Prince. May need the Newbury in white too. And you're right, soooo soft!

I've been a member of style mint for a while too but none of the tees have enticed me enough to buy yet... I like the stem ones from Nordstrom.. how do they compare??
