City Chic

4.0
(8)
"I get a lot of cheap city chic clothing second hand from Vinnies etc."
·
"I’ve always found city chic to be expensive but generally pretty good quality"
·
"Adding another vote for City Chic. I’ve got multiple things from there and they’re actually designed for larger sizes rather than just scaling up something designed for a size 2."
·
"City chic is great for bottom half stuff, most of their skirts are a-line so you can have a tummy and still look hot in them."
·
"City chic is good, I buy heaps from there."
·
"For everything else I order from City Chic (lots of retro, bohemian, gothic stuff)."
·
"City Chic has more professional looking clothes, but they have great fitting high-quality jeans and cute dresses."
·
"I've seen City Chic recommended, though, and it should have reasonable delivery prices to NZ (it's Australia based)."
