Clothing Subscription Boxes: Worth the hype?

My first clothing subscription box arrived seven years ago. Since, I’ve had countless home try-ons and added many a favorite item to my closet. But, are they really worth the hype?

So I did a little research on what we can all do at home to get some immediate results. Here's what I tried and how it worked for me.
