I decided to do this House Of CB review almost immediately after writing my post on PrettyLittleThing aka PLT. I want this blog & my YouTube channel to be filled with content that you find useful. And I think this is most certainly a brand that you guys are interested in. We’ve all seen our favourite celebs wear House Of CB right? Even Beyonce has worn the brand a ton! When compiling this House Of CB Review, I opted for a similar method to my PLT review. Clothing item cost was ￡45 however, the orders were shipped via different methods. International shipping costs ￡15. Domestic UK shipping costs ￡10.
House Of CB is owned by 25 year-old Conna Walker. She is all kinds of BOSS BABE goals with over 50 concession stands worldwide (store within store eg. inside TopShop Oxford Circus). HQ is in London, where everything is designed in house. And the product is made in China (a quick look inside at the garment wash care shows where an item is made). I have visited House Of CB stores in London & they are absolutely stunning! Everything is very bright, & perfect for your Instagram selfies! House Of CB known for their bandage dresses however, when shopping their site, I didn’t want to buy any. My style has changed, & party dresses are not something I wear for the most part. And I didn’t want to waste my money lol. So, when I was scrolling the website, I found 2 jumpsuits on sale that I loved, & that I could see myself wearing over & over again.
