Review this... New look.com

Let me start off by saying that I was not gifted any of these items. I bought them on my own and was not paid by New Look.  

    

     With that being said this is my first online purchase from outside the US. New look is Great Britain's version of Forever 21. I like forever 21 but I have alot of issues with fit and quality there. New Look has alot of options as far plus size clothing goes. I went there specifically because I was looking for wide calf boots. They have a whole section of shoes dedicated to wide feet and let me say that the selections are super cute and not orthopedic or granny looking at all. I have been swooning over these...

Wide width suede polka dot booties

     I bought a dress, a ring and boots. I'll start with the dress. It's a navy blue with white dots. It's a  tunic style dress with button detailing in the back. It has a tie in the back to create shape. I prefer to wear it with a belt, or to wrap the tie in the front to make it look like a belt. It's defiantly a polyester blend, but it had held up pretty well. I got it on sale for about $20 and I have been happy with is. As for the ring, It's super unique, it's two little swallows with encrusted crystals on them. The ring doesn't connect and the birds stick up for a super unique and eye catching look. It came in a antique gold color, but after wearing it for about half our the finish rubs off and the copper starts to shine through and turns my finger green. The ring was less then $10 so you can't really be mad. If I'm going out, then I will still wear it, but I try not to wear it all day, because my finger stained pretty bad last time. Now for the boots. I got these grey leather-ish  knee high boots. They are kind of a mix between a motorcycle boot and a riding boot. I really likes them and they ran about $50. They are not wide calf boots but they are wide width. When I got them in the mail I tried them I tried them on and they don't go up to my knees all the way because I should have gotten wide calf, but I love them so much I think they still look good even though they are a little slouchy.

You can see the tarnish on the ring some. I still like it though.

     As far as ordering from the U.K. I did have some problems. I was supposed to receive my package withing 7-10 business days. After 2 weeks I sent them an e-mail. With no response, I sent a second and then a 3rd email. On the 3rd attempt they contacted me back and apologized. Shortly after I got my package, it was close to a month after I had ordered it. On the label, there was a stamp that said that it was mis-sent to Australia! 

     With all that being said, I was happy with the things I purchased and would attempt to order from there again. If I had another shipping issue though, I would stop shopping there. For the most part I was completely happy. I would say that the quality of product is a little nicer then Forever 21, and that they have a larger selection of plus size clothing then a lot of U.S. stores. On a scale of 1-10 I would give my shopping experience a 7. 

Let me know what you thinking. Have you ever ordered from New look? What were your feelings on the quality of the products? Would you shop there again? I would love to hear your opinions.
