- I'm sorry, what?
I understand its cashmere, but what?
(upbeat music)
- I personally have not really bought
anything lounge set like until recently.
I would just wear workout clothes at home
or kind of wear old T-shirts.
- I think I'm pretty obsessed with lounge wear
especially working from home.
Since the pandemic, so many more cute designs are available.
And I feel like everyone wears lounge wear now.
And it's very socially acceptable.
- Chloe and I are going to be wearing
two lounge sets.
- Jessica and I are each going to choose each other
a set of cheap and a set of a luxury lounge wear
so that we don't know the prices of what we're trying.
We're gonna try both sets on.
See which one we like best
and then try and guess the prices.
- I do feel that the cheap one is probably gonna be
a little bit more casual and that the luxury one
is probably going to have some like rich widow bites.
If you know what I mean.
- I've never tried really expensive lounge wear,
I don't even know what that looks like.
Very curious to see if it's worth the money,
because it's just lounge wear.
- All right, let's go shopping.
- I'm going to start with the cheap version
and I'm going to start on Torrid
just because that's a kind of reliable plus size website
and plus size items are notoriously hard to find.
A lot of these just look like pajamas
and that's not what I'm going for.
- I do see a lot of really cool ones.
There's one right here that's catching my eye.
This one is a from Nasty Gal.
It's only is a two piece.
It looks really like rich vibes
but I feel that if I find it three piece
I'm going to be able to throw her off a little bit
by thinking then that might be the more expensive one.
- So I really like what I've just found.
The top is 22, the bottom is 22.
I think that's a pretty good price
considering it looks pretty good quality.
And I really liked the color.
I really like the fit.
- Okay so Google just suggested this one right here.
So essentially if I'm doing the math
you're kind of paying $10 per piece in this lounge set.
These are really, really cool actually.
Now it is time to find the luxury one.
- So I'm just going to Google luxury plus size lounge wear.
- Oh my God.
There's one here that is almost $500.
I feel like I shouldn't even be on this website.
This is crazy.
It does look luxurious, I'll say that.
- This brand here called Eloquii, they're pretty expensive.
90 bucks for joggers and they look nice.
This is more along the lines of what I want.
- So I think I found one.
I clicked on it and I genuinely thought that this price here
was for the three-piece set, but that's just the cardigan.
So these are the shorts and a tank.
Here it is.
Like these prizes are insane.
It's cashmere, so I'm expecting it
to be really soft and comfortable
and that she will never want to take it off.
- Pretty expensive.
I would not usually pay this.
90 bucks for the pants and 70 bucks for the top, oof!
Shopping complete!
- I'm so excited to see what Chloe selected for me
and to see how they fit.
And if I can tell the price difference
by just looking at them.
- They're here!
I was terrified when I got this out of the bag
this is a top, this is a bra.
This isn't even a bra.
This is just a tiny bit of fabric.
Everything else is actually really cute in this set.
This is like the big cardigan.
I liked this a lot.
I do love the fact that these are both three piece sets.
- The first one that I have right here,
this one you can tell is like slightly ribbed, it's soft.
The material is much, much thinner.
So this is something that I would probably
feel comfortable wearing only at home.
It's really pretty nice and light.
- This one's cheap, but not because it looks really cheap.
It's just in comparison to this, which feels pretty soft.
It is a hundred percent cashmere.
Oh, it's sustainable cashmere.
Okay. That is actually pretty awesome.
So the yarn is respun
from vintage garments and factory scrap.
That's awesome.
Okay, I'm like very excited by this now because I know
that it's sustainable and good for the environment.
And then we have really cute, almost like bike shorts.
- Oh, look at the sleeves.
It has this like extremely dramatic sleeve.
I personally love a dramatic sleeve.
And if you see the comparison
it's like such a huge difference in the material.
This one is extremely ribbed.
It feels knitted by like a luxurious grandma.
I do wear things from Eloquii
so I know that their items might be
a little bit more pricier.
Based on my analysis I'm going to go ahead and say
that the green one the Eloquii one is the luxury one.
- All right.
Let's try them both on.
So here's the outfit on
I am really into the cardigan a lot.
I really like how long it is.
It makes it look kind of sophisticated.
I love the pants too.
I think it goes really well
with the flowy flowiness.
What is not flowy is the top.
And I don't have a strapless bra that I like
so I'm just wearing a bra with it.
To me this isn't lounge-y
because I don't feel comfortable in it.
This don't look cheap to me honestly.
- So I started with the pink set.
This one is so soft.
I already want to take a nap in it.
The sleeves are actually pretty decent.
I am five, three, five, four, and a good day.
Most sleeves tend to be really long for me
but this one kind of gathers around my wrist.
Now the bottoms are much, much longer than I am.
So they're pretty much rouching very heavily
around my ankles.
This is a fake bow.
So you can't really do anything.
It's literally just for show and tell.
The bottoms are size 24.
I don't think I would actually size down
because there isn't much space around the waist.
- I saw the label and it's from Boohoo.
I know Boohoo do a lot of like 50% off sales.
So I'm gonna guess let's say 40
and that's with a discount.
- So I'm going to say that this is probably $67.
I don't think it's under 50.
That's such a weird number, but that's what I'm guessing.
(upbeat music)
- I do like this.
I think that the cardigan is too big.
Like I get that it's supposed to be oversized,
but it's kind of drowning me.
This is cute.
So little like cut with the longer bit of the back.
I don't know what to do with all this fabric.
It kind of just like bulks up
and it makes my shoulders look quite large
but it does feel really soft on
like it's for sure expensive because it feels so smooth.
And my favorite part are definitely the biker shorts.
I love these.
They're a little big as well.
I think honestly, the sizing chart is not super accurate.
This is all a little big to be fair.
This is big because they only had a large left.
If it's like crazy, crazy expensive, then no, not worth it
but it does feel luxurious.
I think it looks kind of expensive
depending on the final price
it might be worth it if you've got your right size.
Okay I have this set on
and I already feel like my credit score is above 800.
Look at the dramatic sleeves.
I'm still warm.
And like, this is just going to give me
the little ventilation that I need
because I personally run really hot.
I love that it's a crop top,
I feel like I need to take some like
really dramatic photos like this.
(harp music)
Because I am five, three
I'm always expecting every pants that I get to be tailored.
And when they're tailored, they're pretty much cut off
to half of like what the pants originally are.
But these pants actually don't need much tailoring.
I genuinely feel rich.
Like, I feel like this is what you wear
when you're like drinking wine.
Like the first look the girl was drinking a Capri sun
which is like, what I do.
Let's talk about the little detail here
but this one you can actually adjust to tighten and loosen.
So it's not a fake bow.
Literally the cutest thing ever.
(upbeat music)
- Given that I have no idea how much
luxury lounge wear costs, 250.
That's a random amount that I wouldn't pay
but I feel like some people might.
- I'm guessing it costs about 241, $241.
Why am I picking these odd numbers?
But that's what I think.
Okay so cheap set it actually $44
and my mind is blown because the top did fit perfectly.
The bottoms fit around my waist okay,
but they're too long so I am okay with spending
the extra $10 to get these hemmed
and now they're going to look like they were made for me.
- So the cheap set is 30, okay.
That is cheaper than I thought it was.
I said 40 to 45, oops.
That's a really good bargain though.
- Okay so this set only costs $160 and for the way I feel
and for the way I look, I definitely think
that it's worth the price.
A plus size, a luxury lounge set like this
at this price range, even though it is a little high
I feel like it's, it's fair.
It fits so beautifully.
- 924 dollars.
I'm sorry, what?
I understand it's cashmere
and I guess recycled is going to be more, but what?
There's no getting around it.
I don't think that's worth it at all.
I mean, they're nice
if you appreciate fabric more than I do, I guess it's fine.
- I definitely see myself wearing both of these again.
I'm probably going to be wearing the pink one
a little bit more because that's going to be
on the days that I don't want to see anyone.
And I just want to cuddle with my puppies.
- I would wear the expensive bike shorts
because they're really cool, but I would size down.
I wouldn't pay that money.
And I would wear the cheap cardigan again
hopefully lounge wear I was going nowhere
because I do love it.
And that's basically what I wanted to live in from now on.
Keep the lounge wear coming.
