Wantable Themed Box | Plus Size | Unboxing and Try-on Haul | Subscription Box | Pretty Details Edit

[@glesgawife]

Am I the only person who will be relieved beyond belief when distressed denim becomes obsolete?!?

[@BigonStyle]

I’m right with you!! I keep thinking I will find some that I like, then feel like I look so ridiculous in them!! They have been around for so long. I see teenagers that essentially have the entire front of the Jean missing - I cannot even imagine that that is comfortable. (Sorry for the rant, Joan!)

[@glesgawife]

@@BigonStyle whew! I’m glad I didn’t offend you 😊. I hate that you have to look long and hard for decent jeans with no rips.

[@nedawilmhoff3599]

I’m your height and pants have been short on me always. Can’t deal if they are too short and in the seventies I think everything was made to fit a 5’5” person. Don’t get me started on the ripped jeans? I’ve either patched or thrown away my sons pants back in the day can’t see paying for the privilege.

[@jrbowdree1]

I agree….I just don’t get it!

[@Sandihasit-vo7dl]

I don’t see the point in wearing raggedy clothes🤯😝|

[@TheAmazingFriends-no3lm]

Yellow pants and shirt almost. Love the color combo

[@winniethepoodle]

I LOVE watching your videos Meredith! Your laugh is contagious and your positivity is too. You have taught me so much about subscription boxes and how to be happy in my body. You should moonlight as a personal stylist.mwah!

[@janetr5929]

Oh my goodness, I just love your dog! What a cutie ❤. I agree with you about the distressed jeans. I like the Liverpool top too but 89. , that’s a lot for what it is. I’d pass on the expensive jacket too.

[@BigonStyle]

When I went to look at the online checkout, the top was $20 off…still pricey, but much better, I think! My Lulu is so silly! She normally doesn’t let me film bc she doesn’t understand that I’m talking to the camera and not her- so she sits outside of the bedroom door and whimpers. This was a huge improvement! Thank you, Janet!

[@Lisared023]

Love the white top better with yellow pants!

[@pamelaatkinsonscats2873]

I really like the top with the green pattern and I also like the white jacket. I’m not a fan of a lot of distressing on jeans, but I’m 66 so maybe that’s just me. I’ve got mustard coloured 3/4-length trousers and I prefer them to a very bright yellow.

[@BigonStyle]

The green patterned top is actually on sale! I just went to check out, and that was a pleasant surprise! I bet that those mustard pants are so cute on, though! - Thank you, Pamela!

[@CajunistaAnya]

Cardigan was cute, and I liked the white jean jacket. I have that one too, and love it! Thanks for sharing!

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you Anya!! You are awesome!

[@angelrose7906]

So funny about the British accent. I married a British man and I'm American. But after living in the UK over 20 years, everyone sounds the same :)

[@BigonStyle]

Angel- I love that! Now have you picked up a British accent, or do you still have an American accent?

[@angelrose7906]

No, unfortunately my husband thinks I sound the same. LOL@@BigonStyle

[@jeanbowers3569]

Adorable Doodle.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Jean!! She bad. We adore her 🤣🤣🤣

[@annkirkland3906]

I love your dog she is beautiful, good box i love the yellow pants, the cardigan

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Ann! My Lulu is a sweet, but crazy girl! She normally sits outside of the bedroom door while I’m filming because otherwise she thinks I’m talking to her instead of the camera- I think she did great this time❤️

[@judithrees6919]

Great video! I get my jeans at goodwill. I shop the men's section...the bigger size the better, and just belt them. No way I am spending almost $100 on jeans! Recently discovered your channel and love it ❤

[@BigonStyle]

Judith, that is an excellent idea with the jeans!! I really appreciate you wantchinb and commenting!

[@sueschroth3877]

I love that you are such down to earth. I was a 22 and am now a size 10. But I love watching you and am proud of how you are teaching and showing the difference between certain materials and styles. Keep up the good work and stay real.

[@valeriealas]

I just started following you and I’m enjoying your videos so much. I loved the wholesome celebration you have a beautiful family. ❤from a former Houstonian living in Maryland.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Valerie!!

[@liza_lou]

I really enjoy your hauls videos! Just a point on the sound, and perhaps it is only myself that notices, but the microphone is picking up the sound of your necklace rubbing against it.

[@BigonStyle]

It is not just you! I am trying to fix the footage that I have, but no more necklaces. I also struggle clipping it to certain necklines. I think that a new microphone is in the cards in the near future!

[@lambchop1960]

You have such a great personality. Fun to watch. I am hooked. Lol

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you so much!!

[@ElenaV.1314]

"THESE YELLOW PANTS RIGHT HERE!" 😂😂 I died! That's totally something I do, too; I get tongue tied a lot sometimes lol. I thought the cherry blossom top looked really nice on you, and was cute with the yellow jeans. I've been enjoying your videos, and Lulu is adorable! 💜💜

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you Elena!! I almost cut it out, but it was more fun not to 🤣. When I went to check out, the green top was on sale for $67, so that is good!! Lulu and I both really appreciate you!

[@wolfmangaming3066]

I really liked your “contenders.” Either of those would be a good addition.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you!

[@AnnaBreit]

I love the white and green top and hope I get it in my next edit!!! You always get much better edits than I do. Mine are all expensive, frumpy, and boring. I did however love my flower power edit

[@BigonStyle]

Anna, when I went to check out, it was on sale for $67! It says sold out, but it may be worth asking your stylist in case people return them! shop.wantable.com/products/dolman-popover-w-curved-hem?variant=44608240779515

[@marcybasile7956]

I hear you about the heat right now. Plus, the a/c died in my massage clinic a few days ago. Yikes 🥵🥵🥵 The distresssing is...distressing. LoL

[@BigonStyle]

Oh no Marcy!!! I cannot live with no a/c- I’ve got a really good repair guy if you need a referral! Distressing, indeed!

[@TheAmazingFriends-no3lm]

Yes to the criss cross dress

[@TamaraDilksCreates]

Damn...I loved how you looked in the distressed denim jeans. That second outfit looked so slimming.

[@amandagerber3551]

Keep the yellow pants!! The fit on you was perfection!

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Amanda!!

[@yvonnewalton2888]

Get the yellow pants and the cotton shirt. I did like the jacket too

[@phyllis9750]

LUV LULU! 😊

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Phyllis! She is a mess!

[@heathertormey]

Ouuu I've wanted to try Wantable too. I normally loooove a wrap/faux wrap dress but agree the sleeves seemed weird on this one. Like it was almost there, but just not quite. I really liked the cream/white denim jacket. I think it could be so versatile with so many styles.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you so much, Heather! Wantable is one of my favorites for sure! Thank you so much for sharing your opinions!! I truly appreciate you! - Mere

[@finhollis5833]

Not trying to change your mind…but the first dress looked so great on you.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Fin! I was looking at the stream and it looks like they have that brand/style in lots of colors, it must be new- I’m going to request one! The gray just did not feel like it coordinated enough with the print. I appreciate you so much for taking the time to watch and message me, -Mere

[@woofgangpug]

I’m sorry you didn’t like the dress. I thought it was the best thing in the box. And you looked fabulous in it. Very professional and slim.

[@teriburgan8436]

Love your videos SO much but I can’t help but wonder how BIG your closet it!

[@BigonStyle]

I just talked about that in my last video! I am over capacity! I do have a really have a pretty large closet, but I’m currently bringing in new things every week (where I used to once or twice a year!). I have a pretty good place for formal gowns to go, but I think I’m going to get my daughter to help me do a Poshmark or something this summer in her free time. I really enjoy making content and discovering new brands, but I am going to have to pivot from building my wardrobe to discovering new things!

[@GenuineJess]

I love your videos. I am 5'10.5" and a 22-24 in tops and a 24-26 in bottoms. I am in the process of losing weight and when I get a size down I will order Stitch Fix and Wantable.

[@BigonStyle]

I believe in you! Just love yourself through the process, and extend yourself a lot of grace! There are some good brands out there that go over that 22-24 (Torrid, Bloomchic, Lane Bryant, CurveSoul, etc). But have learned from experience that there are so many more options at the 3x 22/24 size. You’ve got this, Jess!! I’m here for you!

[@evelynmartinez8751]

I actually really like the jeans on you!

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you!

[@vvip3rz779]

[@carolcanny4778]

Hello Meredith, Your dog Lulu is so sweet. Those yellow pants do look nice on you. 💛 Take Care🌸🌻🌺

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you Carol! I always have to put her outside of the room because she thinks that I’m talking to her when I’m talking to the camera, but she is getting so much better! Lulu is short for Louisa May Alcott ❤️❤️❤️

[@calciofan10]

You have a 29" inch inseam??? So jealous. I'm 5'4" and have a 25" inseam. Even petite inseams are usually too long for me, so I have to look for cropped jeans most of the time. My best brand is Levi's high rise slim cut raw edge jeans, but they're getting hard to find😢

[@sophiaisabelle01]

We appreciate your effort and hard work bless you

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you Sophia!

[@iowadutchgirlcvk1017]

I am so glad I found your channel. I am 5'11 and wear a 3x. Jeans are a problem for me, I hope you can get some long enough! I do own a pair of NYDJ jeans that are a 33 inseam. Keep the clothing coming, Have a great week!

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you so much! I’m so happy that you are here! I think we could be twins!! -Mere

[@AA-ji8gq]

I loved the yellow pants on you! I also enjoyed the white Liverpool top, but don’t know if the price makes it worth it. I would rather spend 90 dollars on a pair of jeans than a top. Loved the video!

[@BigonStyle]

I was deciding between the two, and I wenr to checkout, the top was $22 off! Still not an ama ing price, but much easier to swallow!

[@sheilahall7588]

I would consider the cardigan but I would send everything else back.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Sheila!

[@judithpolak3116]

You are very helpful with your tips and try one. I have discovered Roswe on line have you ever tried those clothes?

[@aikanae1]

I liked the cotton top. Im in Az and I avoid polyester in the summer. But $89? Ouch. That's an expensive box. I'm looking forward to your Torrid v LB try on. I have a shape like yours in that my shoulders are broader than my hips. Ruffles are not my friend.

[@BigonStyle]

I really want to love ruffles- but on the shoulder like that- nope, I’m a full out 🧱 🏠! When I went to check out the dolman top was $67, which honestly still feels high, but is so much better! I think that the MSRP is similar to Torrid and Lb, but I NEVER pay full price at either store!

[@cjar8989]

I love the white shirt & yellow pants 27:30 . ❤

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you!!

[@amybettencourt3404]

No, 29" won't work for you on jeans (crops or capris, maybe...). I am 5'4" and that is the length I would wear... RE the white top - try it again with your beige bra. It will definitely look better. The distressed jeans are a bit TOO distressed (personal taste...). The yellow pants look a bit short, but they look good with the white shirt. BUT if you have to pick one, I would go for the top as it will be more flexible than the yellow jeans. 🐞

[@BigonStyle]

Amy, 100% agree on the pants! I wonder if they sent the wrong ones bc Meredith’s notes said that there were longer jeans in my box 🤷🏼‍♀️. When I went to the online checkout, the green top was $20 off! I think that sealed the deal!! Thank you so much for watching and messaging!

[@loriroemer1122]

Maybe you could tell your stylist that you don't want distressed jeans at all, or only lightly distressed. I would also measure the inseam on a pair of pants that have the length you want, and tell Meredith that is what you are looking for.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you Lori- the crazy thing is that I have told them all little to no distressing. I probably need to say it again! They probably don’t have the time to read all of the my notes when they are styling the box. I really appreciate you, Lori!

@@BigonStyle If they want to make money, they need to read the notes :)

[@teresalyons1723]

Hi Meredith! I know this is an older video, but I recently found you and have been watching your old vids. 2 comments: possibly the yellow pants had a typo on your card and was meant to say Raw cut, not Raw cuf? Also, a shirt hanging out under a jacket is perfectly acceptable, and rather cute in my opinion. I live in Michigan and that has been the style for years now. Good job on your channel and your continued weight loss journey.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you so much, Teresa! I am betting that that is what the yellow bottoms were supposed to say! I really appreciate the jacket/shirt advice! I’m learning all the time!

[@karenkettering1725]

I have just found your channel on KZbin and I'm loving you unboxings! (Is that a word?). I am hearing you use the term surplus on several videos. But I think you mean surplice when you are referring to a type of fabric? Am I right or is surplus a type of fabric, too?

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you! I think it is my accent- I am fully intending on saying surplice - the criss-cross lower cut neckline. I just said both words to my husband and he said that they pretty much sound the same when I say it- I will work On enunciating! Thank you so much for watching, Karen!

[@wendynorton9465]

I do not like distressed pants or on anything else. And I don't like the frayed hems. I just want a pair of pants that fit me and I like. I'm a new subscriber here and have enjoyed watching your unboxings. I was a 3X until last December when I had to be in a skilled nursing nursing facility after I got COVID from being in the regular hospital and couldn't eat, everything was awful. Now I'm wearing XL. I get a lot of really nice clothes and shoes from Amazon and mostly don't need to send them back. I was really into tropical and Hawaiian prints.🌸🌴 A lot of the clothing is made in China and very inexpensive, but you need to watch if they charge you shipping. I have a whole new wardrobe, mostly dresses, pants and tops, and have spent about $1,500. There are a lot of clothes in the many $ range.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you, Wendy! Goodness, what a way to lose weight! I cannot imagine how rough that was!

[@tinalewis6782]

Have you tried the active bundle yet? Polyester is much cooler than cotton, which is the reason runners wear polyester shirts to run in. It’s also why no one wears cotton socks unless they enjoy blisters. 😄 I bet the active bundle would have many items to keep you cool and chafe-free this summer!

[@BigonStyle]

Tina- that is awesome information. I need to try an active bundle! Have you received one? Was there some good stuff in there? I have a fabletics membership, so it might be cool to compare them!

[@liza_lou]

While clothing made from cotton is more cooling and breathable, it also absorbs perspiration. Athletic clothing is made from polyester because it doesn't absorb the sweat. For everyday wear in the summer heat, natural fibres are most comfortable.

[@tinalewis6782]

@@BigonStyle Hi! I have not ordered one, I have too much activewear in my closet! 😄

[@tinalewis6782]

@@liza_lou Then why do runners wear polyester? Polyester wicks sweat away from your body and it evaporates to keep you cool and comfortable - no wetness, no sweat stains, no chafing, just breathable comfort. Runners wear wicking polyester, CoolMax, Capilene, and ArcticCool polyester tops and shorts. 👍🏻

[@BigonStyle]

Hey Jennifer, I have actually not gotten this question before, but appreciate you asking- I have sent a message to customer service and will let you know as soon as I get the answer! I just wanted to respond so that you know that I read this and am going to get you an answer. - Meredith

[@BigonStyle]

Jennifer- frustrating news, but I have a solution! My link is not associated with a discount- it has literally never been used, which is why I have never had this comment(I have had my code used for every other service many times over, but never Wantable!). I have spoken to multiple customer service representatives, and they said that the discounts are offered sporadically. I ended up finding s blogger whose code is currently working- when you click it, it should say ‘$35 applied!’ I am so sorry, I am going to edit the descriptions of every video this evening! Here is her code: partners.wantable.co/6bbDEG If you have any trouble, email me at [e-mail]. Thank you so much for messaging me and I really apologize! - Mere

I didn't love the selection of clothes that they did, I don't like the grey that they chose for the cardigan 😅 I only liked the cherry-blossom top but I think the fit should be better for the money they are charging for it.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you- this box was just ok. I ended up keeping the cherry blossom top bc it was on sale when I went to check out! It was my favorite in there, but I have only worn it once since I received the box. I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment- it really helps a lot!

[@OneHotNana]

I’ll be honest here. Those pieces are way overpriced. Do you have a Ross or TJ Max near you? I’m ok with a little distressing but holes where your panties show is way too much. I think the yellow pants just accented your belly area. Maybe with a long black v neck tunic they would be ok. The gray cardigan looked small on you. I think that cardigans, sweaters, jackets should meet in the front. If they have buttons or zipper fronts they should zip or button with no gaping. Those 2 tops looked skimpy. You needed more length and I agree that the multi colored to made you look wide across the shoulders. The only item from this box that looked like it fit you well was the dress. It looked so pretty on you.

[@BigonStyle]

Thank you Carol! My Ross never has much of a plus size collection. I’m ordering some Lane Bryant on a good sale for comparison. I love the ease and surprise of the style boxes, so I’m going to keep doing them, for sure! I really appreciate your insight!
