I bought a $350 IGIRL THRIFT MYSTERY BOX so you don't have to...

[@alexasunshine83]

I made a video restyling all of these pieces so they work for my everyday style 👉🏻 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKXReoisZsaqoac

[@natalia4173]

Well to be honest what You are really paying it's her job. I mean, mystery boxes are expensive, You could easily find the clothes more cheap, but You would have to look harder in more than one place, so, half of the price comes from the work of the people who Made them. So i get, i would personally would never bought them, but thats me. This Style it's also not my Style Buy it's rather peculiar, SO i think i would be hard to pull up together, so, Even when it is expensive, it's really Nice to see that they do their job and listen want You want. It looks great on you, btw.

[@kaitlynw7360]

I feel like for the price tag I would he underwhelmed as well. While I can see the theme coming through, it's giving more soft goth (?) and like 2010s tumblr more than the advertised look. The accessories are all really cute though!

[@ale3xandria]

Yeah 2010s tumblr vibe was the one I thought of right away when I saw the outfit!

[@BreezyBeeArt]

2010 Tumblr is very accurate! It's cute, but it's giving mildly alternative Jess from New Girl

[@LucyGooseyVault33]

@@BreezyBeeArt yes but Jess from New Girl was hella cute but I could get like a ton of outfits that are thrifted for that very steep price tag yikes lol.

Way to take one for the team Alexa, cause no matter how cute those pieces were, I could never have justified that price. But I did love that beige dress.

[@juanitaauelua2693]

Yes I was like $350 for that bundle but the bundle looked so small.

[@smiiize8108]

I think when it comes to igirl bundles, you’re more likely to get a good one if you choose the edgy themes like the 90’s and goth ones, cuz those styles are what she’s best at and is more likely to have really great clothes. I feel like when I see her style anything else it could be hit or miss imo

[@alexasunshine83]

Yeah I really wish I had gone with a goth one because I think I was too picky with the color since my Pinterest had light and dark colors pinned

[@yazmin9731]

Why did she even offer this theme💀

[@twinelle]

Still watching through it BUUUT you got the dress Igirl purchased from me!!! LOL in one of my vids I mentioned wondering who was gonna end up with it in a bundle lol and it's youuuuu 💗I wasn't big on the color either so I sold it but quickly bought another and I plan on dying black and making it more of a mini length

[@alexasunshine83]

Omg 😂😂😂😂 that is so funny!!!! Yeah I think I will dye it black because the color just it off on my skin tone

[@Androgynary]

yeaahh I was gonna say that dress literally looks like the one from Yard Sale thrift store lol. They still had racks of them too 🥴

[@tinyrockcrochet]

I WAS ABOUT TO SAY!!!!!!🤣

[@jessicab7059]

I feel like for that price you should be able to list as many likes and dislikes as you want! Not just one of each, that leaves so much room for error.

[@rutealmeida3331]

I've watched a few of igirl mystery box videos and it always feels underwhelming :/ I don't think its worth that much money at all, I get they're charging for the pieces, time and styling but damn 💀 even their individual itens are expensive as hell, how are they charging 40 dollars for tights ;-; I don't wanna sound hateful but for that price point I expected more

[@alexasunshine83]

I think if I loved all the items I would still be like hey I don’t know if i think it’s worth the price, but at least I know have pieces i love. with this most of the pieces were meh that it just made it worse. I think the biggest thing missing is layering, yes accessories yelp but I feel like a full outfit should have more layering to it. It’s tough because I understand there’s much more that goes into price, but yeah 🤷🏼‍♀️ it’s a hard one

[@betbea7900]

I could tell right away that Alexa was not happy with the purchase.

[@yazmin9731]

I feel like the reason why she has super expensive stuff is to get ppl to buy her bundles but tbh someone rly needs to humble that girl I’ve been seeing a lot of igirl bundles but idk how someone is not embarrassed to be sending underwhelming pieces that is actually worth 50$ more or less and pricing it at 350, like at least have free shipping???

[@coquetteviolet]

the price comes from items being sustainably/ethically produced. + quality ofc. u can’t rlly have cheap prices for super high quality and ethically produced items, for cheaper prices either quality or ethics have to be decreased.

[@stephaniehernandez4057]

Yup they suck.

[@kpgunther]

Oh Alexa... Face it girl you were low key ripped off... You could have thrifted these pieces for far, far less... However, thanks for taking a hit for the 'team'! Lots of love!

[@violetteangelx]

The old Igirl bundles were truly something magical circa 2018-2019ish, they were full of deadstock and really cute 90s and other era vintage pieces. It seems now that bella has just hopped on a trend train and added it to her bundles & has overpriced them. She used to be so original with them and it kinda makes me sad?? I think you were ripped off, and this is coming from a kinda ex-igirl lover:/

[@girlrebooting]

Came here for this. They were all so unique and she gave people the option to come up with their own theme rather than picking from a select few. They were so much better before. And cheaper 🙃

[@meursaultscourtroom8886]

Mystery boxes seem to be for people who have no idea of how or where to shop or want to try out an aesthetic that they are unsure of how to style. Because most of us are too picky about what we want to wear and tbh the people styling the boxes have no idea of what is in your closet or the little things that are deal breakers for you. The cost of all the different boxes are way over what it would be to just pick out the same stuff that you actually want in my opinion.

[@alexasunshine83]

Yeah I think I’m retiring my mystery boxes for awhile now 😅 I feel like I know my style a lot more that I’m just disappointed with them usually

[@fairymystonight1783]

So true and the fact they limit how much you dislike certain stuff or what your favorites are

[@LucyGooseyVault33]

Oh yeah I agree I can go to the thrift stores in my area and come home with a whole damned wardrobe of clothes. However I do want to do a much more affordable mystery box just to try it lol

[@le4905]

I love watching you unbox these kinds of things but when I tell you I could leave my thrift with about 30-40 pieces for the same price... Nope! I could never.

[@leopardshadow333]

I love that kitten t shirt 🐈 💕 All bags should be rated by how many snacks they can hold, that's the perfect rating system.

[@jesseleiker4228]

Agreed. Which is why i just bring my backpack with me everywhere

[@rebeccacrash9272]

I love the babydoll dress! Everything else was kind of meh in my opinion. I think the black skirt and lace bodysuit might look better styled with different pieces.

[@things_cat_does]

Would love to see you make your own “haunted heiress” styling video, and see how you can work the igirl box pieces with your own wardrobe 🥰

[@jessicacavero1575]

i love the tights and accessories! the first two items-i agree, they’re a bit plain. but the ruffle dress would look great with a long moss green cardigan if you want to dress it down a bit! for the winter, just add some hand warmers and a frilly scarf :)

[@rosemoon89]

Mystery boxes are cool and fun till the point you realise you dont like the pieces you got 🤣 but still i love those thrifted mystery boxes. Never seen something like that in germany… only for basics.

[@tanjahormel4985]

[@alexasunshine83]

✨ *THERE ARE TIMESTAMPS IN THE DESCRIPTION* ✨ I go into detail about what theme I bought and why and just what I'm hoping for before actually unboxing the mystery box so for anyone that just wants to skip to the clothes those are there for you

[@cristicruz2938]

Everything looks so pretty, but I agree this is best if you’re wanting one of their popular items so you getting more value for your purchase. If they did mini one outfit bundles under $100 that would interest me, because their theme choices do look like things I would wear or want to experiment with. If you’re not having luck thrifting or styling, this box is for you. Otherwise you can totally curate these looks over time if you don’t mind the hunt!

[@larrydesosa]

The ruffle dress would look so good in black ! Please die it black 😩❤️

[@kaytoomuchsalt5100]

These all looked very pretty on you (I actually thought look #2 was super cute) but I definitely get being underwhelmed for the price tag - almost $400 is A LOT to gamble on when you can’t choose what you’re getting or return it. I saw another comment where you mentioned dying that dress black and I definitely think that would be cute, but I will mention that when I saw you wearing it, my first thought was actually that it could easily be used as more of a cottagecore piece. Layering a white lacy or ruffled shirt under it could be very cute! Or even a forest green one, if you wanted to lean more into the dark cottagecore/cottagegore vibes. Love the video! In general I always appreciate your honest unboxing videos like this - they helped me realize that as fun as mystery boxes sound, I’m too picky to justify getting one. 🤪

[@lilhonor5425]

I’m a fan of Igirl I have a number of their pieces. I do agree that I think these bundles I think are more for fans of the brand/Bella’s style. I did enjoy the looks from the bundle.

[@nancyann3335]

Hi Alexa! It was fun to watch you open the package as many others are curious to see what iGirl bundles will bring. I’ve seen many iGirl mystery boxes and basically they are just ok. Nothing really exciting that is worthy of a $350 price tag. You looked cute in the outfits, but nothing you received isn’t something that you couldn’t have found on your own for a lot less money. I’m not sure what the draw is for these very expensive bundles. Anyway, I always enjoy your videos. Thanks for keeping it real!💕

[@mckennatowns5306]

I feel like online thrifting is a mystery box in and of itself too because you're just going based off of sight (obviously) and you're not sure how it will genuinely feel and fit 😭 But nevertheless, it's still so fun, and the mystery boxes are still so exciting to see too!!

[@megananderson3891]

Another thing that you could do with the dress is lace the front with black satin ribbon to darken it into more your style. The body suit and skirt fit was adorable.

[@thecatssmile18]

Mystery boxes are not for me, however, I like watching videos of people unboxing them. Reason why I personally would never get one unless I knew exactly what was in it (defeats the purpose, I know), is that I do not have the money to spend on clothes without knowing what I'm getting and potentially being out of hundreds of dollars worth of clothing I won't wear. Plus it's just creating additional waste. If I knew how to sew and create sth else out of it that's a different story, but I neither have the skills nor the time. So, a no from me, but I see the appeal for sure. This one is, imho, completely overpriced. I think many agree. You probably pay for the name, and I don't enjoy that. It's secondhand clothing. How much money do you actually have to charge to make a profit? Probably not that much. Thanks for the video 💗

Totally loyal subscriber here Alexa you are so gorgeous I have watched quite a few I girl bundles And while you styled them so gorgeously and your figure is so beautiful if I received these I would be really upset at the price point it is not justify the pieces and accessories you got. I could tell you were truly trying to be as positive as possible but from seeing so many of your videos I can tell when you’re super stoked and incredibly excited and when you are trying to be kind and optimistic. I am an avid Thrifter and reseller as are you and I know you choose far better and higher quality pieces all the time to me this fell flat. I really would’ve been upset. if it was maybe a $65 bundle then I would’ve been OK. I honestly think they need to do a little bit better. This was kind of basic. Thank you so much for taking the risk for us. Based on this I would never purchase one of their bundles. You are a sweetheart I hope you have a wonderful day you do look beautiful truly.

You could definitely pair black accessories with the champagne colored corsette. I see it more as a fall and winter dress, wearing a black long-sleeved see-through under it with black tights and any of your great boots. You could even wear that headband with it! I think it would be worth experimenting with... I can even see it with a black gothic looking shawl. Just a thought!

[@evelyndossantos708]

[@eliushi6220]

I absolutely loved the babydoll dress outfit. It was perfect with the accessories. The other 2 outfits also looked great on you, but i loved the first 1 the most. But i think you will going to find cute ways to style the beige dress and i think you can color it black. The only thing you to find out before painting it are the stitches and if you can change their color. Some stitches aren't possible to change the color. They stay the same color. And probably you have to change the ribbon and find a black or maybe even red ribbon, but that won't be too difficult to find. But maybe you will find a way to style the dress in this beige color and you are gonna like it the way it is. Thank you for buying the expensive box and share the video with us. It was nice to see and it will help other people to deside if they want to buy an box or not.

[@alyssasoto2544]

[@kalinawidawska3973]

Im sorry but that was not worth the price. These items are so basic and the beige dress looks like something you’d wear it the renaissance fair.

[@HRwoeking]

I think we’ve been spoilt with fast fashion. I think we have also got used to rubbish quality stuff. So in that way we expect more for our money. I think second hand is often really overpriced. (I’ve had beautiful 70’s pieces that are made amazingly well for cheaper than you can find 90’s bits which were originally mass produced. It doesn’t make sense to me!) I’m ok with paying for craftsmanship. And quality. But as someone who has been seeing clothing since she was little I can’t work out where the price point for the babydoll dress comes from. The only way I can validate that price is that not many of them are actually sold. Because let’s face it- it’s a fairly simple design. I recently fell in love with a linen cami. BUT I couldn’t validate the $50 price tag. ESP when I could see the construction (or lack of). These are things I often think about. A wedding gown - ooak. Luxury materials. Obviously worth more. Denim. At $200. No thanks. I think we should readjust the worth of things - know what goes in to producing an item. Cost per wear. Etc. and move away from insane consumerism.

[@Jay-over-Jay]

This is literally it!! I’ve been a fashionista since I was little as well and it’s mind blowing to me how we are trying to justify the sale of things for much more than it’s actually worth; especially when so much of this clothing is made in sweatshops with their prices inflated as a result of branding (especially for luxury brand)z

[@v3nus1nfurs]

This is such old KZbin style I love it

[@Zullala]

I've watched so many mystery bundles and all of them seem like a waste of money. I understand why the bundles are priced the way they are (time it takes to thrift, sort, style ECT)... but the buyer never seems thrilled with what they got. Honestly as a viewer I'm rarely thrilled with they got either. It just seems way more cost effective to purchase clothes you know that you like. Sure you might be getting more clothes in the bundles for the price (though I could go thrift an entirely new wardrobe for $370) however the risk of not liking most or all the clothes seems too high. The process of buying and opening the bundles looks fun, but actually owning the pieces seems like a big toss up 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@FrostedGemstones22]

I love watching people unbox mystery fashion bundles, but I've been surprised how many people just love these iGirl bundles...I keep waiting to be overwhelmed for the price, but I keep being so underwhelmed. I guess if you do have $350 to throw around you may not be as upset as getting items that aren't you. I think my two biggest issues with these bundles are - (1) for $350 I would expect I could put in a lot more 'no's. I understand that thrifting it can be difficult if there's a long laundry list of things a client doesn't want, but I think being able to put up to three 'no's would really make me even consider buying it for a second (2) I personally don't care about iGirl as a brand. I think the mystery bundle themes are cool, but I wouldn't ever wear anything with the iGirl logo prominently on display on it. I'm not shopping for your branded stuff, I'm shopping for a mystery bundle, you know? If half of my accessories have her name somewhere on them, that would feel like a waste of my money to me
