Dia & Co. Subscription Review – September 2015

My first box was great! I kept everything. My second box was a complete fail and I am sending everything back. I am a 55 year old lawyer and they sent me a pleather skirt and ugly shearling pleather vest. it is like the new stylist didn’t bother to read my profile. Someone mentioned in another boxes comment that there was a new subscription service that seemed to be for older women. Does anyone remember what that one was?

That dress is really pretty. I gotta look around to see if I can find it in my size.

This box seems like a good idea but I’m always worried about clothing subscriptions. I don’t like the idea of someone picking out my clothes since the person who knows my style best is me. Plus, I don’t have a general “style” when it comes to fashion.

If you are looking for NYDJ for cheaps… check out Nordstrom Rack’s website and/or Hautelook (flash sale for nordstrom)…they have NYDJ on there regularly for around $60-$80 a pair…I’ve bought from them and they are great.

Also Gwynnie Bee will periodically sell their stash of NYDJ on their sale sight for super cheap.

6pm.com also caries NYDJ for big discounts. I have only paid full price for NYDJ and it was before I found these websites. I hope that helps.

I totally posted previously and for whatever reason my comment didn’t post…. DIA does price match . Last month I fell in love with a skirt they invoiced for $65.00… I however found it on a website for $25.00 and they matched it. I love Dia… Their customer service is wonderful and they truly value and take your feedback. I am seriously enjoying their service.

Anna, have you tried asking Dia & Co. if they will do a price match for you if you find the jeans online for less? Maybe they would prefer to do this rather than losing the sale altogether.

Interesting review!

FYI Dia price matches. If something you like from your box is cheaper online, they will give it to you for that price. I fell in love with a skirt in my last box that they invoiced for $65 and I found it for $25.00 and I was able to keep it for that price. I really love their service and am really enjoying them a lot.

I’ve had two boxes from Dia & Co so far. The styles they sent were all really good for me, so I have hopes for this. I only kept a pair of jeans from my August box because everything else was summer and I didn’t want to pay full price for them. On the plus side, a dress and a top I loved from the box were available on clearance from Macy’s, so I still ended up getting them, just not from Dia & Co and not at full price. For my September box, I’m just keeping a dress. There was a pair of pants that totally didn’t fit, so I had to send them back. Everything else was good, but I didn’t want to pay full price for them. If the pants had fit nicely, I probably would have ended up buying the whole box because with the discount, it was a good price. Now I have to decide if I’m going to cancel Gwynnie Bee or keep them both.

Just wanted to let you know that NYDJ come up on Hautelook regularly.

Glad to see a review of this box! I’ve gotten two boxes since I first heard about it. I like that it’s a heck of a lot cheaper than Gwynnie Bee but it’s more of a surprise of what you get. The first month it had some ok things, but I wouldn’t pay $80 for a maxi or $150 for a pleather jacket. I just bought some brand new maxis from Torrid for $40/each and a pleather moto jacket from Lane Bryant last year for $50. I really like the service, just feel the clothes are a little steep compared to what I normally spend. I’m a shopaholic and barely ever pay full price for anything.

Oh, I hope you keep that dress! It’s gorgeous!!! And the price is really reasonable! I was thinking the same thing as the others- with a black jacket it could take you through to Nov. then you can bring it out again in April.

I’ve been wanting to try this subscription! Is it like Qwynnie Bee where you rent the pieces? As I get 5 pieces, I keep one.. would I get 4 more pieces until the month is over, or does once I sent those 4 back, that’s all I get for the month? 😀

Yes, keep the dress! It’s very reasonably priced, and you said you loved it. You could wear it with tights and a cardigan!

I got my first Dia & Co box last month. Of the five items I received, I ended up only keeping a pair of Style & Co jeggings. (I thought I’d hate the way they fit, but it was just the opposite. They were super comfy and not skintight like leggings usually are.) The other 4 items were totally my style, but were returned for other reasons. One top was a gorgeous shade of blue, but it was too big and felt like a tent. The other top I received was ADORABLE and I totally would have kept it IF the front hadn’t been see through. That meant I would have had to were a cami underneath, which changed the fit. The wrap dress fit nicely, but the pattern was not attractive on me. Finally, I received a necklace (I opted to receive one piece of jewelry in my box). The necklace was great, but very similar to one I already owned. I’m excited to see what my stylist picks for me this month!

I know NYDJ are expensive, but you won’t regret spending the money on them. You’ll be able to wear them for several YEARS before they’ll need to be replaced.

Oh, keep the dress. It sounds as if you’re only keeping one other thing. So go for it. You might have a day when you could pair it with tights and a cardigan. Even though I’m not plus size, things don’t usually fit me quite right so when I find something great I get it. If I found the perfect tank top in January I’d buy it.

I would keep the dress if I were you! Especially since you said it’s so flattering on and the price seems very reasonable. I wear dresses year-round and I live in Michigan. This one doesn’t scream summer to me, more like fall or winter, actually. I think it would look lovely with black tights and a cardigan with flats or boots.

This is what I have been waiting for! I’ve always wanted to try the clothing subscriptions, but none have my sizes (I’ve been losing weight too). So Dia is a welcome subscription for me and I’m going to try this out. Definitely looking forward to what is sent to me!
