I Pulled the Receipts, and These 20 Pieces Live Up to the Hype
Not going to lie, shopping has both its pitfalls and its peaks. There are the true moments of divine alignment when you find the perfect spring-ready pieces on sale or you discover a new outfit combo that makes you look posher. And then there are those rougher moments when you have to return a shirt because it doesn’t fit your bust or you fall in love with the priciest designer piece you can’t afford. Or my version of hell: That one item you’ve been obsessing over is now sold out. This whole fashion thing isn’t for the faint of heart, so you need coping mechanisms to survive. You need to build an arsenal of tricks to help you shop better online—and while there are so many tricks that make shopping’s pitfalls less tragic, the easy trick of all is reading the reviews.
The consumers who leave reviews on Amazon, Nordstrom, and our very own Who What Wear Collection should be considered your patron saints of shopping—they can take the hassle out of the experience and just make it pure bliss. Once you realize the power of the review section, it makes deciding what to buy, what size to get it in, and if it’s worth the hype all the more easy to suss out. In that vein, we rounded up the best pieces to buy right now from Who What Wear Collection based on reviews, sales, and style inspiration.
Who What Wear Collection Fox Keyhole Midi Dress
"This is one of those dresses that you slip on and are good to go for pretty much any occasion. The keyhole detail gives it a subtle, sexy touch, but the long sleeves and midi length tone that down, allowing it to be appropriate for daytime occasions, perhaps paired with a leather or PVC trench and boots. If you’re looking for a dress of all trades, I suggest you look at this dress. It’ll be the answer to your prayers.”—Eliza Huber, Who What Wear fashion editor
Who What Wear Collection Venus Pleated Tiered Midi Dress
"This dress is so pretty! It looks vintage and is of a really nice quality. The material is soft and comfortable.”—Anne A
Who What Wear Collection Wavy Ribbed Set
"The cutest thing ever in the softest material! This was my first purchase to try from WWW along with the matching skirt, and I am so pleased with the quality. Will I be buying more? Absolutely!”—Cathy W
"Absolutely love this skirt. I felt like it was tailor-made for my body type—it fits perfectly and did justice to my curves! I would request more interesting colors for spring in this style.”—Neelima R
Who What Wear Collection Mille Deep V Sweater
"If there’s one thing I love, it’s a matching set—from pantsuits to skirt sets to sweatsuits I don’t tend to pick favorites. Right now, though, I can’t get enough of this incredibly soft sweater set that’s finished in the buttercream color I’m loving for spring.”—Kristen Nichols, Who What Wear senior editor
Who What Wear Collection Lindsey Ribbed Mock Neck Sweater
"I am a connoisseur of both the color blue and mock neck/turtleneck sweaters. I fell in love when I saw this sweater. It’s unique and trendy because of the color, but the silhouette makes it timeless. A new closet staple, that’s for sure!”—Alyssa L
Who What Wear Collection Knit Cloud Set
"I’m 5’1” with a large chest. Although this wasn’t cropped on me (a good thing at my age) the fit was a bit off. If you’re bustier I’d recommend sizing up as it’s so cute with the skirt.”—Robin A
"I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and fit of this skirt! A great addition to my closet that I’m sure I will enjoy wearing for years!”—Deborah S

"Will live in this for the foreseeable future.”—Kimberly H
"I bought this to wear on an airplane for an overseas flight to Turkey. I wanted to look good in the first-class lounge and be comfortable, plus it was conservative enough for my destination. It was the perfect purchase as the material is very soft and holds up well for a long flight.”—Xavienne G
"The vegan leather is better than real leather! It’s a heavy-weight fabric, looks and feels like leather but without the fear of it stretching out. It’s completely lined, comes in a gorgeous camel color, and it photographs beautifully. I love this dress.”—Kirsty M
"Love my purchase. The vegan leather is so soft and comfortable! Dress it up or down, it goes with everything. So happy that I bought a second pair in a different color.”—Angelica C
"A great sweaterdress that’s not itchy. It’s got a heavier weight and a good drape. Plus, it can be worn as a long sweater, or over jeans—it’s perfect”—Lorie
"I love this top! The material is a soft and comfy thin sweater-like material that’s not itchy at all. The cut is super flattering (slightly cropped on my 5’10” frame), and it’s super high-quality. I feel like it will last for seasons to come.”—Caroline
The pants are exactly what was shown in the picture. It’s a great material, really comfortable, and goes really well with the vest.”—Eileen S
