I tried Rebdolls matching sets to get dressed cheaper and quicker

Rebdolls is an online fashion brand offering cheap and chic basics from size small to 5XL.

With dresses, bottoms, swimwear, tops, and accessories from $5 and up, Rebdolls was created by plus-size model Grisel Paula.

The store has a whole section dedicated to matching two-piece sets, many of which are under $50.

Two-piece sets are amazing because you never have to ask yourself, Does this go together? It's literally the fastest way to pick an outfit. I ordered seven sets to try out the style.

The first two-piece set I tried was ONLY $28!

I tried a 3X and it fit comfortably. The only issue I had was that the top kept rising and rolling under my bra. I would recommend to size up if you are busty.

Essential two-piece skater set ($28, Rebdolls)

The material was extremely lightweight and breathable.

Perfect for summertime.

The second set really pushed me out of my comfort zone.

I pride myself on dressing for my style, not what society thinks I should wear. But this shows more visible belly outline than I usually rock. 

Bet on me flutter sleeves midi set ($38.40, Rebdolls)

Rebdolls tends to favor taller women, so this "crop top" didn't fit right on my 5'4" frame.

When I first saw this outfit I was confused and excited.

The top splits right under your bra, so certain movements can let your girls peek out for the world to see. I live for the fashion drama, and anything that gives the illusion of a cape is perfect for me. 

Letting go crossover top with leggings set ($31.99, Rebdolls)

The leggings are extremely curve-hugging, but still comfortable AF.

And don't go thinking matchy-matchy sets have to be monochromatic! Rebdolls makes amazing prints.

I tried this set in a 3X as well. 

Trust issues V-neck crop top and pleated pant set ($36, Rebdolls)

The pants were too long. I had to knot the ends to keep them from dragging.

Plus-size athleisure is rare, so I was psyched to try this $36 jogger set.

Also in a 3X. 

Counting Benjamins oversize crop top and jogger pants set ($36, Rebdolls)

The soft fabric had me hooked.

But again, these pants were made for someone taller than me.

I love anything that lets me feel like Morticia Addams in the summer.

This 3X kimono short set is definitely Morticia-approved. 

Feeling the moment shorts and kimono top set ($33.60, Rebdolls)

I was worried the cropped kimono would roll up and settle under my bra, but it didn't move an inch.

The sizing of this 3X suited me fine.

I couldn't end the haul without a classic LBD, and this one comes with a duster.

The sweet spot cardigan and midi dress set ($36, Rebdolls)

This 3X was a bit snug, so I recommend sizing up.

THE VERDICT

Pros

  • Rebdolls offers straight-size trends that are hard to find in plus sizes. 
  • The price is definitely right if you're on a budget.
  • Mixing and matching possibilities are endless.

 

Cons

  • Having to tie the pant legs in knots or have them tailored if you're short. 
  • Not being able to get a set in two different sizes if you're bigger on bottom/top.

 

Overall I really enjoyed having trendy and inexpensive options. Hopefully other brands step up to the plate as well.
