So, on the 16th of this month I got the order I had made from Zaful, so I thought I would share what I ordered and my honest review of the clothes, as I know Zaful can have many mixed reviews, as well as show you some try on pics to show how they fit me,
*Quick thank you to my little sister for taking the try on pics*
Ok, into the review,
Delivery and customs:
I ordered on the 12th of February, I chose express delivery as because of the price of my order it was free so why not! haha. Express delivery was supposed to be 6-10 business days,
I got my order on the 16th, it came in two parcels,
The second parcel wasn't originally supposed to come until the 19th but my Mum got a text saying they were both coming the same day,
My order was £109.40 but I added insurance bringing the total to £112.31, and customs cost me £23,
My order would have been about £137.25 but I used a discount code and some products were on offers at the time too
Packaging:
The packaging is nice, each item comes in zip lock bags (I'll put in pictures of each product in it's own bag when I get into the products),
You could keep these to store the clothes in when summer is over, which is what I think I'll do,
One thing I didn't get was one of my items came wrapped in a separate parcel so I don't know if this was just shipped a little later or whatever
Quick note before we jump into the post:
I will say the sizing was a little difficult at first, being in US sizes, but me and my Mum made sure to use the measurements on each item (top length, waist size etc) and not just guess by the US to UK size chart to make sure I was getting the right size, which did mean I had to get an XL in one pair of leggings just to get the waist to fit me haha but I'll explain this later
Anyway, with all of that said, onto the review of each item,
Here's what I ordered, I'll link each product if I can and I'll mention price etc (I will mention the full price as it stands when writing this, not discounted prices)
I will also put if I'm sending items back, keeping them or exchanging them for a different size.
I ordered 11 items so here they are:
1) Smocked Crop Cami Top And Skirt Set - £14.88
I got this in a medium, I'm not normally a fan of skirts but I made this order to try things I don't normally wear,
The top:
The Front |
The Back |
Adjustable Straps |
The Skirt:
The Front |
The Back |
The Zip On The Back |
My Thoughts On This Item:
The top is elasticated all at the back so it fits nice and has a lot of give to it, I also love that it has adjustable straps,
One thing I will say is the top does have a little gap at the bottom between itself and my skin haha but it's not a huge problem, it could have just been the way I was stood or something I'm not sure haha, but other than that I really love this top, it's super comfy too
One thing I like about the skirt is it has like little built in shorts underneath, (I couldn't get a decent picture of the shorts but they're like loose and silkish feeling), this makes the skirt feel so comfy as I'm usually a shorts kinda gal, this also fits nicely just like the top
Trying It On: (Ignore my awkward posing, I'm new to outfit pics/posts ahaha)
From The Front |
From The Back |
The Outcome:
So, yes I will be keeping this item
2) Open Back Cropped Tank Top - Black - £7.44
I got this top in a large as it only gave the top length measurements and no measurements for anything else, so I was going up to a large for the length of the top to be where I wanted it,
The Front |
The Back |

From The Back |
My Thoughts On The Item:
Turns out, as you can see from the try on pics, it is a little big on me, which sucks because overall I love the top, (You can see it sticks out at the side a bit when it has been tied)
Another thing with this top, it is a little sheer but with a bra on that's not an issue
One other point is that it is a bit awkward to try on as you have to string the tie up part through yourself, but once that's done it does look really nice
To be honest though I don't know if I tied this properly haha
The Outcome:
I will be exchanging this for a smaller size as I love the look of the top
3) Birthday Slay Letter Swimwear - £12.65
I got this in a size medium, simply because I really wanted it and they sold out in a small before I ordered,

My Thoughts On This Item:
I actually really like this haha it is a little big on me, if I slouch down even just a little the front is too big and the straps are big too haha
But I love the dipped back,
Not much else to say about this apart from I have plans to wear a bra under this and wear it as a bodysuit as the only down side is there's not much padding up top haha, but I have found two clear back and clear strap bras so that shouldn't be an issue,

The Outcome:
I will be exchanging this for a small when they're back in stock
4) Pineapple Romper - £10.61 (On the site this is under Cami Floral Criss Cross Romper for some reason haha)
I got this romper in a small, the measurements seemed perfect for me
The Front |
The Back |
The Pineapple Print |
The Zip On The Back |
Adjustable Straps |
Trying It On:
From The Front |
From The Back |
My Thoughts On This Item:
Overall this does fit ok and is super cute but it's just a little big on the sides at the top, now that could be fixed with a little stitching but then one other problem that's not so easy to fix is that it is a little high up at the back, the length is fine but it does go up a little high in the butt area ahaha which I don't understand because it's a low back romper.
Other than that I really liked this romper, I love the pineapples and the low back
The Outcome:
I'm undecided with this one as I love how it looks but with the issue I mentioned it's not the most comfortable haha
If me and my Mum can't find a way to fix the issue sadly this will have to go back
5) Floral Crop Top And Slit Skirt Set - £19.35
I got this in a medium as me and my Mum checked the measurements and it seemed like it would be the right length and that it would fit
The Skirt:
Overall, I LOVE this two piece, it's so cute! But it is too big, both the top and the skirt are too big, the top at the sides and the skirt at the top as you can see in the first picture, I guess the side of the skirt could be fixed by taking it in if needed but the skirt is also too long
Another thing is the buttons on the halter neck of the top are a little fiddly, it's a case of tiny elastic hole and bigger buttons haha so I do have to get someone else to button it up for me
But I do love how cute and floaty this is though haha and I also love the two slits in the skirt
The Outcome:
I will be exchanging this for a small as I really want this to wear in spring particularly
6) Drawstring Cropped Cat Hoodie - £15.25
I got this in a small, I figured you can't go wrong with a hoodie
Trying It On:
This fits really nice, it is a little more cropped than expected but the measurements did seem correct and I love it,
I am already a huge lover of cropped jumpers/hoodies,
The hoodie also has cat ears on the hood which I love so much haha,
The Outcome:
Yes, I am keeping this hoodie
7) Striped Cami Wrap Top With Shorts - £11.90
I got this in a medium as me and my Mum checked the top length to see which length would work for me
Trying It On:
My Thoughts On This Item:
I actually ordered this feeling so unsure of if I would like this or not, as it's not something I usually go for, but turns out I absolutely LOVE it!
I did have to tighten the straps (A LOT) but that was fine (thank goodness for adjustable straps haha) and it fits really well,
I also love the shorts,
This two piece is so cute, I wouldn't normally wear backless outfits but I actually love them haha
The Outcome:
I am definitely keeping this
This might be one of my favourite pieces out of the whole order
8) Heart Letter Print Crop Top - £11.16
I got this t-shirt in a small, I figured, the same as the hoodie, you can't go wrong with a cropped tee
I love crop tops so much haha,
And I really love this one, it's so cute and fits perfect and the print is cute too haha
One thing I will say is you can see a bit of stitching where the label is stitched on at the back but that's no problem at all
The Outcome:
Yes, I am keeping this and you'll probably see me in this a lot this spring and summer
9) Bowknot Embellished Cami Top - £10.41
I got this top in a small
Trying It On:
My Thoughts On This Item:
Anyone who knows me knows I LOVE bows,
This is a little sheer but I can wear a bra with it,
It is a loose fit so it does fit a teeny bit big if you pull it down so my Mum is going to see if she can do anything to make it fit better,
I love the top though, the back is so cute!
The Outcome:
I'm undecided on this one at the moment
10) Mesh Panel Leggings - £13.39
I got these in a size XL,
Trying It On:
My Thoughts On This Item:
I have actually been looking for a pair of leggings like this for ages now and I hadn't been successful finding any in stores near me haha,
So when I saw these I knew I wanted them,
Me and my Mum checked the waist and length measurements given against me and all seemed fine (My waist is 27 inches and the L would have been 26 but the XL was 28 so I figured it wouldn't be a huge issue),
When these came however I could tell instantly they were a little big,
I tried them on and they fit pretty well on my legs and I do love them, however, they don't come up to my waist and they are a little big at the top,
They also seem to sag a little at the top too
The Outcome:
I will be exchanging these for a smaller size as, if they fit on the hips rather than the waist, I don't mind, because I do like the leggings but these fell down a little at the top
11) Cropped Pineapple Patches Hoodie - £10.21
I ordered this in a small, the same as the other hoodie earlier on
Trying It On:
My Thoughts On This Item:
Ok, so here's what I thought of my final item,
I love this hoodie, again the measurements seemed correct but it was more cropped than I expected, I guess I'm just not used to it being this cropped haha, but I think I could get used to that,
I think it looks cute too haha
The sleeves aren't as long as the cat hoodie but they're still long enough
The Outcome:
So, yes, I am keeping this hoodie
And that brings us to the end of my order! Finally haha
Overall I would say you can find some REALLY nice things on Zaful but the sizing can be a little complicated haha, it really depends on what you get, because even though I checked ALL measurements some things were still a little big,
I think maybe just consider how things are going to fit too, like, do they fit loose or tighter,
Read reviews too,
But also the quality of the items I got is great! I did order expecting some things to not feel amazing because some things are quite cheap but every item feels such nice quality and is a comfy material to wear,
Would I order again? Yes, I would order again as of right now, I guess now I have an idea of what items fit me well on there and what not to get again
Before I end this post here is a quick round up of what I'm keeping etc,
Keeping:
- Smocked Crop Cami Denim Top And Skirt Two Piece Set
- Drawstring Cropped Cat Hoodie
- Striped Cami Wrap Top And Shorts Set
- Heart Letter Print Crop Top

Undecided:
- Pineapple Romper
- Bowknot Embellished Cami Top
Exchanging for a smaller size:
- Open Back Cropped Tank Top
- Birthday Slay Letter Swimwear

That's all for this post,
Let me know which item you like most, I'd love to know what everyone else's faves are from this post haha, I have a few faves, the stripe two piece, the crop top, the denim two piece etc,
I love everything I got to be honest!
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this post,
I'm so excited for spring and summer to be here soon and to wear some of these pieces,
I'm thinking of doing an update post once I get the smaller sizes in things about how they fit and how long the exchange took etc, so look out for that soon!
And that's all!
Thank you for reading and I'll see you soon for a new post,

I absolutely love all the summery pieces you got, it’s a shame that some things didn’t fit properly I find that when I order from American sites! You do look great in everything tho
ReplyDeleteYeah, I also love everything, there's some really cute pieces! And aw, thank you so much! :)
DeleteYou look great in all of these, I love haul posts (mainly because I'm so nosy lol) These are all such cute summer pieces though. I find that with a lot of american brands, the sizing can be very 'off' sometimes but I guess it's just one of those things. I am very obsessed with that pineapple hoodie though!
ReplyDeleteCharlotte | https://fadingtulips.blogspot.co.uk/
Aw, thank you so much! Haha, I'm the same, I find in hauls you can find things other people have bought that you too would love. And yes! I love that hoodie, it's so comfy but so cute too haha
DeleteI LOVE LOVE LOVE the navy skirt and top and the striped skirt and top. I love two pieces so I’ll defimitely be looking into getting these! DiaryOfASpanglishGirl.com
ReplyDeleteYES! I never thought I would like two pieces but I'm obsessed, they're so cute!
DeleteYou chose some really nice things! I love the pineapple pattern on the romper. It's a shame it didn't fit as well as you'd hoped! I also really like the navy top and skirt! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yeah I love the romper and the top and skirt is one of my faves, it's so nice :)
DeleteWhat a fab haul! I absolutely love the look of the pineapple playsuit :)
ReplyDeleteKate | http://www.katelovesx.co.uk/
Thank you so much! Yeah I love that playsuit haha
DeleteI adore the pineapple playsuit and the smocked crop cami top and skirt set, and wow the bowknot embellished cami top is beautiful! Great blog post babe, really enjoyed seeing what you'd bought. Thank you for sharing 🌸✨
