My Thoughts on StyleMint

by Kristina on January 20, 2012

I know you see me dress up in a lot of feminine-edgy outfits, but what you don’t see are my days when I’m casual and comfortable in a slouchy t-shirt and jeans. (Well, sometimes I post those outfits, too.)

It can be so hard to find a “perfect T” sometimes, because you want the combination of just-right slouchiness, the softness to the touch, and the durability to wash and wear hundreds of times over.

Enter: StyleMint

I’m so over the moon about these soft, slubby Ts that I just keep wearing them over and over again.

Gross, I know. I promise I do do my laundry. Promise.

The great thing about StyleMint is that it elminates the guesswork out of choosing a perfectly soft, well-designed, long-lasting shirt. I know that I am always hit-or-miss at Target or Walmart or other stores. Once in a blue moon you find a shirt that you know will get super soft after a handful of washes, but that is a big IF. With StyleMint Ts, I always know I am going to get that softer-than-skin feel right out of the package. And did I mention that package ships for free?

Can you tell I like soft things? Perhaps I should rename the blog to Pretty Soft Sparkly. No?

Here are the highlights (since I know you are a busy, working woman):

  • Only $29.99 per shirt–any shirt, no matter if it’s long sleeves or short sleeves
  • FREE Shipping (and it’s fast, take my word for it)
  • You can skip ANY month, but you probably won’t want to, because…
  • there are new designs every month
  • …and I’m obsessed with watching the Mary-Kate and Ashley videos about each T Shirt design. Obsessed.

Oh my, I love StyleMint too! I totally thought I would just order them for “blog research” purposes but now I’m totally hooked. /Sigh.

Love the video as opposed to pictures too.

I’m glad you like the video versus pictures Thessa. What’s your favorite StyleMint t shirt of the moment? I’m constantly wearing my pink one.

Right now I’m wearing the Fillmore a bunch. I love it’s slouchiness and rugby stripes.

This is such a great post! I have been obsessed with StyleMint but unfortunately they don’t ship to Canada! :( But love the post all the same!

Kristina January 20th, 2012

Actually Kendra, I’m pleased to report that they do indeed ship to Canada! It may have been a much-requested feature, because I checked their FAQ page for you and they do indeed ship to you. :) Happy shopping!

I bought my first Stylemint tee last month (the Broadway in blue) and I love it! It is so soft and I know that I’ll wear it with so many outfits since it’s such a classic design :) Also, I am really enjoying your videos- you speak so naturally in front of the camera and your voice is very easy to listen to!

I am constantly on the hunt for the perfect tee-shirt, especially in white so I’ll have to give StyleMint a try. I love the different collar options as well- thanks for the great tip!
Warmly,

Love StyleMint – I have about 4 tees already! I wish they gave you a promo code for current members. Bummer :(

Victoria January 20th, 2012

Thanks for the info! I just ordered my first StyleMint shirt…a navy long sleeve henley. My favorite part of the site is the style videos for each piece!

Karla January 20th, 2012

Interesting, however, the sheerness really turns me off. :/

Reply

Chaz January 20th, 2012

I’m worried about the sheerness too. Does anyone who’s ordered from them have anything to say about this? Are all the lighter-colored tees sheer, or just some styles? Thanks!

Reply

Kristina January 20th, 2012

Just the white Prince t shirt was a little sheer on me, but all the others were perfectly fine. The style does tend to run toward the sheerer side, is my guess, because it’s kind of their “The Row” influence I think – very casual, california, flowy, sheer. It’s not a thick white t shirt, is what I’m trying to say. but if sheerness bothers you, I wouldn’t buy the Prince in white! Also, I could kinda gauge the sheerness based on the model photos & videos, if that helps! :)

Karla January 21st, 2012

I’ll check out the Prince. Thanks Kristina! :)

Thanks Kristina, this is good info to know and makes a difference!

FYI – F21 has some really nice v-neck t-shirts in white, peach & beige. At $4.98 each, I’m going to hold off on StyleMint. But thanks for the info!

Nice deal… I totally need to jump on the style mint bandwagon. who doesn’t love a cozy cute tee?

Jennifer January 20th, 2012

Kristina thanks for your honest review. I liked the idea of a T-shirt of the month club so I had joined Style Mint, but I was hesitant about the quality. Hearing your thoughts helped to quell my hesitations. P.S. I have the same AE vest love it!

I’ve been with StyleMint for a few months now and I’m in love with them! They are beyond comfortable. The only problem I have with them is that they are so soft that I often have a crease line for my bra so I have to wear an undershirt.

Kindness is the best accessory,
Rebecca

I love all of the Mint websites! I’ve only ordered one tee from StyleMint and I liked it a heck of a lot more than I was anticipating. It’s so comfortable! Have you tried JewelMint? I place a new order every month on the first … I’m obsessed!
