Help us curate your bag by sharing your info with us when you purchase.
Before you check out with your Mystery Bag, you’ll fill out a short form with info about your style, size(s), and what you’d love to see in your Mystery Bag.
On the form, describe your style in a few words. Let us know what size(s) you wear in brands that fit you well. (While measurements can be helpful, we can be more accurate when we know your typical size in a brand or two.) Also let us know if there are additional size considerations we should be aware of like, if you are petite, if arms/sleeves are often tight, or if you have a long torso.
We’ll do our best to include what you’re looking for based on our current inventory. Please note that we’ll do our best to avoid items you’re not interested in but cannot guarantee every request.

The joy of Mystery Bags is truly the surprise we’re packing up for you. If you’re feeling unsure or the “mystery” feels more stressful than fun, Mystery Bags probably aren’t right for you. Instead, you can shop with us in-store, in our online shop, in our lingerie and swim web shop, via Instagram stories, or even book in for a Style Session. (We offer Style Sessions virtually or in-store. Folks who are struggling to define their style or find their size tend to find tons of value in a Style Session!)
