have you ever shopped at Body Central? ETA - i went for it w/pics :)

I got a catalog in the mail from them the other day. They have some really cute stuff for summer!! I've never even heard of them before though. Any experiences/reviews?

Body Central

ETA: their stuff is so reasonably priced, i figured i'd go for it. I ordered two tops below ($19.90 and 14.90) and shipping was about $6. There is no tax since they don't have a store in NY. Fingers crossed i like the stuff & it fits!

Yes, let us know when you get them. I love their stuff and always wondered about ordering it.

Agreed...it's just ok. Not long standing but will get you through the season...possibly 2.

Ditto. I actually do have 1 pair of pants and 1 top (that I bought together) maybe 5 years ago and they just got retired last season. The top is still in good condition, just too revealing though.

I buy from them all the time.
Sometimes the quality is good- other things are just eh in terms of quality.
But for the price- you can't go wrong.
Even if you get a season out of it- it's still worth it..

I have a dress that I got like 5 years ago that I still wear and get compliments on.
It's my GO TO summer dress!

I will update the thread when the delivery arrives!

Yea based on the price alone, i'm assuming the quality won't be something that will last a lifetime - i'll be happy getting a summer or two out of them! Which, for the price, is fine with me!

I bought 2 things from this company. 1 was decent, the other looked like it was sized for a teenager. They also have the worst return policy ever, so I never order from them.

The quality is ok. Some things look very cheap, others look decent. I have had a good experience because the tops and dresses I have ordered have been worn just a couple of times, so they are like new. Once I had to return a dress because it looked sooo cheap.

I was supposed to post an update about quality - like everyone else said, it's so-so. Maybe like Sears quality. But honestly each shirt was less than $20, so i'm not complaining. I got what i expected and by the time they wear out, i'll prob be sick of them anyway. Both tops fit and i actually like them a lot. Shipping only took 4 days. I would order from them again!
