Tuyen's Thoughts:

- Alright so you may be wondering, "Where did you get that skirt Tuyen?" Not from AA! I ordered it from a site called, "Aliexpress" (http://www.aliexpress.com) It's a wholesale site from China. At first I was skeptical, but the seller of this skirt had good ratings and reviews and besides, I did not want to directly purchase it at AA, since it's definitely out of my price range. Luckily, I came across this skirt on the site! It has the tag "American Apparel US" on it, but I'm not so sure if it's actually from AA. Either way, it's an exact replica of the AA tennis skirt and I'm absolutely IN LOVE with it! And you know what they say, if you like it, get it in different colors and so I did! I purchased a black one as well. I'm planning on order more colors because it is so versatile and they're so cute! 

The tennis skirt from AA is $54.00 each (WHAT!), but I purchased TWO tennis skirts on Aliexpress for half the price! (Each tennis skirt cost $11.44. It may be cheaper now! They have sales here and there).

- As for the size, I chose a small (26 or size 4) and I chose right! It fits perfectly, not too tight or loose. I like this skirt high-waisted, since I feel like it suits my figure more and I couldn't be any more happier.

- As for the material, its great! I have a feeling the white tennis skirt will get dirtier faster and of course it will, since it's white, but thank goodness there's something called a washing machine. By the way, it's not see-through, which is awesome. The texture of the tennis skirts is different, but nonetheless, comfortable and snug. 

Overall, I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend this tennis skirt, since it's a basically 1/4 of the price at American Apparel. Although, the shipping is a drag (I live in the U.S., so it basically takes a month to process and ship over here), but if I'm saving money, I don't mind at all! Besides, I forget that I order stuff, so when it arrives, it's basically like Christmas!


Happy Shopping! (⌒‿⌒)

  1. This skirt is so pretty but so affordable! I can't believe you only got it for like 12usd. I really wanted to buy one from AA but it was sooo expensive like wtf when I saw the price haha -_- I might get this skirt in black or navy but not sure which one looks better. I'm so curious what the black one you ordered looks like worn >.< ♥
    Thanks for this helpful review though! ^-^*~
