Styled by Costco

I love fashion. I love trying out new clothing fad. I make it a point to always update myself with current trends in style and fashion.

So I got curious when I saw an article from Washington Post. It was reported that Costco apparel made $7 billion each year more than Old Navy or Neiman Marcus. 

If you’ve never try Costco’s clothing line for women, check out these 10 Costco clothes for women.

1. Costco Buffalo Summer Linen Ladies Adjustable Strap Dress

What I like:

• Adjustable Strap : I like that I can make this dress less or more busty.

• Two pockets : Having a pocket on a dress is already a bonus. But two?

• Thick Fabric : It has a lining so it’s not like the typical linen clothes that are usually see through.

What I don’t like:

• Too much fabric in the torso : I feel that it makes me look pregnant. But my body build may partially to be blamed here. I’m heavy in the middle.

• Weight : Because there’s a lot of fabric plus the lining, the dress feels heavy when you first pick it up. But once you wear it, it does not feel as heavy anymore.

2. Costco MPG Ladies Sleeveless Summer Gray Dress

What I like:

• Price : For $12.99 this dress is a bargain.

• Mesh detail in the bottom 

• Built-in removable breast cups : I like that in the heat of Summer, this dress allows me to wear one less clothing item (bra).

• Pockets : Again, for me, pockets are a plus.

• Length. It’s not too long not too short.

What I don’t like:

• Pockets : As I have mentioned, I like that this dress has pockets but they tend to bulge giving the dress an unpleasant appearance.

• Fabric : It is on stretchy side. And though the fabric feels soft and comfy, it tends to cling on the body making this dress a little less forgiving.

3. Costco Nautica Shorts

What I like:

• Flattering fit

• Length : It’s not too short and not too long for me

• Comfortable

What I don’t like

• Pockets : They’re sewn not deep enough that anything you put into may fall off.

• Colors and Design : I like the nautical design of this shorts but I wish there are more designs and colors  to choose from.

4. Athletic/Active Tights

What I like:

• Price : This is a steal for $9.97

• Fit : I find that this leggings minimizes crotch bulge, slit and camel toe appearance that is usually unavoidable when wearing tight leggings.

• Fabric : It is comfy, soft and smooth.

• High Waisted : It serves as tummy control.

What I don’t like

• Not too stretchy : This could be positive or negative depending on your preference.

• Fabric folds : Some fabric folds around the knee area. Not a big deal for me though.

5. Costco Danskin Ladies’ Tie Front Active/Athletic Top

What I like:

• Fabric Material : It is made of Soft French Terry fabric. Whatever it is, it is so soft.

• Cuffed sleeves and Adjustable tie front : These kind of details give this basic white top some chic and style.

• Fit and Comfort: It’s not too tight and not too loose which makes it very comfortable to wear.

What I don’t like:

• See through: Though the fabric is thick, it is still somewhat see through. I guess it is expected with most white colored fabric.

6. Costco DKNY 1/2 Zip Pullover Sweater

What I like:

• Color blocking design : The design is what gives this sweater its charm

• Soft material : It’s comfy, need I say more?

• Lightweight

• Pocket. Although it takes some time getting used to having front pocket  instead of the typical side pocket, it is still convenient to have a pocket to put things like cellphone or wallet.

What I don’t like:

• Length : The length is actually just right for me but if it had been a little longer it would have been perfect.

*this item tends to run big

7. Costco Hilary Radley Ladies’ Pull-On Pant with Tummy Control

What I like:

• High Waist Tummy Control : Tummy area is one area that I would like to have a little control on. This pants gave me that control and more (by giving me extra confidence).

• Pull-on design : Sometimes I find pants zipper and buttons add bulges and make my lower belly seem bigger. Pull on design takes care of that issue.

• Material: It is soft and comfy.

• Length : Hits just right on the ankle.

What I don’t like:

• No pockets : But I guess it’s a sacrifice that comes with wanting to not have bulges.

8. Costco Hilary Radley Ladies’ Seersucker Pull-On Ankle Pant

What I like:

• High Waist Tummy Control

• Pull on design

• Length

What I don’t like:

• Wrinkly : I noticed that after washing, though typical with seersucker fabric, it’s more wrinkled than expected.

9. Costco 32 Degrees Ladies’ Stretch Linen Blend Pants

Of all the clothing items I bought from Costco that I am featuring here, this is the one that I won’t recommend at all. It’s wrinkly which is typical for linen type fabric. But also, the fit and design is not flattering at all.

Can’t beat the price though for $9.99

10. Costco Ella Moss Ladies’ High-Rise Jean

Of all the clothing items I bought from Costco that I am featuring here, this is my favorite.

What I like:

• High Waisted : Very forging and flattering

• Lightweight, soft and comfy fabric material. 

• Length : I like that it looks between capri pants and ankle pants.

What I don’t like:

Nothing

*It tends to stretch out and gets baggy after wearing it for a while. It doesn’t bother me. I feel like its bagginess just makes it more fashionable. But please consider this when choosing the right size for you.
