There’s nothing better than seeing real clothes on real bodies. Six of us, all with different sizes, styles, and budgets, tried a bunch of new pieces from different brands and we’re sharing what was a win, what missed the mark, and what’s worth adding to your cart.
Between sales, new arrivals, and seasonal staples, there’s a lot to sort through when it comes to shopping right now. So my team and I decided to try a bunch of things, from jeans and dresses to bras and pajamas, from all kinds of brands. With six women, all in different sizes and styles, this post gives you honest opinions, real try-on photos, and whether each item was a win, a maybe, or a no-go. If you love a good try-on roundup, this one is packed with helpful feedback and outfit inspiration.

3. Aritzia Arlo Hi-Rise Straight Jean, Aritzia Remy Relaxed Jeans, and Aritzia Babaton Cotton T-Shirt
Aritzia is the BEST Brand for basics, truly. My team couldn’t get over this white t-shirt, it’s a flattering boxy cut, super thick and not sheer at all.
The Arlo Jeans (seen on 4 of us) are a great jean with a button-fly. If you’re between sizes, for sure size up as they run pretty small. You may even want to go up one size. Kristy didn’t love them, which is why she’s not pictured here. Our wash is all 7 Year Bleu Taboo.
Lauren is seen wearing the Remy Relaxed Jeans, they’re LONG, but she plans to cut them. She’s wearing the wash No Stress Medium Blu.
Here’s sizing info, left to right:
- Lauren, 5’3″, wearing size 30 in jeans, medium in t-shirt
- Laura, 5’11”, wearing size 29 in jeans, medium in t-shirt

8. Madewell Darted Barrel Jeans in Dobbins Wash
Barrel jeans, are you scared to try them? We were all a little hesitant to try them, but this pair from Madewell pair is perfect. They aren’t too dramatically barrel-shaped. They have a button-fly which keeps them structured. I size down in Madewell jeans, and the girls wish they would’ve in this pair. Kristy didn’t love them on her frame, but all 5 of us pictured here did! Here’s the sizing, left to right!
