Considering to do some clothing shopping online. Just concerned about sizes and whether they look like the pictures. Do you think its a good idea to buy clothes online?

@Cadns23 I cannot answer for anyone else but I would not buy clothes online because I need to try them on and make sure they fit well.

the only thing i can suggest is check how detailed the description is, if actual measurements are given, and the seller's return/exchange policy.

Thank you...I did not consider the return/exchange policy thing. It would be very regretful if they don't accept returns or exchanges. Thank you for that. it was really very helpful

I still prefer shopping clothes at physical stores - that way I can check if it really fits me and how it really looks like - things I can't do when shopping for clothes online.

That is true. I became attracted to the cheaper pricing on online item, but it is always best to know for sure what you are buying. but then i would still like to try it but the risk

I personally think that the key to online shopping for me is to use a reliable source. Do your homework. Can you return it? Can you return it for no charge? I have had a few items on Amazon not fit right, and they have been picked up and credited to me for no charge. Zappos shoes online ships free, both ways, and they are fast. Just do your homework. It saves tons of time, you don't nave to go out during Covid to shop , and you can try things on at home, etc. I personally like this option. Good luck !!

I would only do online shopping from stores that I already know to be trustworthy. From places I have bought things from physically before and know the quality and my size in their makes....I also like to shop for food more online than clothing
