Stitch Fix-April 2015

So Stitch Fix. I had to try it. I live in the middle of nowhere. I wear jeans and a hoodie almost every day. I have little to no sense of style. Needless to say, I need help.

envelope that contained the details of my order

StitchFix is a pretty simple service.

Create an account and fill out the style profile.

Select a date you would like your fix by.

Write your stylist a note about what your are looking for.

And...wait.

While you're waiting-head on over to Pinterest and make yourself a Stitch Fix style page! Pin things you like. Pin things you don't. Be sure to tell your stylist why!! On the style profile page, there is a place to link up your Pinterest, Twitter, and LinkedIn to help personalize your fix.

On or around the date you selected, your Fix will show up! Inside, you will find 5 items your stylist thought you would love.

You try everything on. Decide what you want, what you don't, and pack the rest back up in a prepaid mailing bag.

Checking out is easy--log into your Stitch Fix account and review each product. Stitch Fix wants to know:

Was each piece too big, too small, or just right?
Was each piece too expensive, too cheap (who would pick this???), or just right?
How close was each piece to your style?
And one more question I can't remember. I will update when I get my next fix!

Be candid! Your fixes won't get better if you aren't honest about the clothing you were sent.

So here is my review! (I promise better/more pictures next time. As I already sent this fix back, all I have are the style cards.)

Note from my stylist, Christina

#1 41Hawthorn Filbert 3/4 Sleeve Popover Blouse-$58
  

Black

 Very cute shirt. My stylist indicated this is a best seller. It was very light material and could easily be dressed up or down. I considered this shirt for a long time. It fit me very well. However, I spend most of my time wearing a polo for work and I felt naked without a collar. I think I could have gotten over it but I did feel that $58 was a little much for the shirt as it was so lightweight and sheer.

Verdict: Sent back

#2 Market and Spruce Alan French Terry Asymmetrical Zip Cardigan-$68

My Pinterest board is well stocked in sweaters that zip off to one side, so my stylist nailed this one. It was a little pricey, but as I can use my $20 styling fee, it was more like $48. Which I have paid for a similar shirt I already own. This cardigan is very soft. I found it works great for lounging around the house and wearing out! It looked dressy enough I wore it to Easter church and now I am wearing it with yoga pants.

Verdict: kept!

#3 Papermoon Jannit Lace Back Knit Top $48

Seemed more off white/cream than this shows

Uhmmmm.... Well. I liked the idea. The back was all heavy lace; the front was more of a knit material. I was okay with the back being see-through but you could see right through the front too! Not cool. I also have a fairly long torso and this shirt didn't even come close to meeting my jeans. It was very boxy and didn't do anything for me.

Verdit: back in the box it went

#4 Market and Spruce Corinna Striped Heathered Dolman Top $48

Grey and mint green

I wanted to like this shirt. I really did. I liked the colors. I liked--loved--the material. I just couldn't quite figure the batwings and the collar. It was a little wide, but not wide enough to pull off one shoulder. The sleeves weren't full length. They weren't half length. The weren't 3/4 length. I don't really know where they were supposed to be. As I couldn't stop tugging at the shirt somewhere, I decided this wasn't for me.

Verdit: sent back

#5 Renee C Gael 3/4 Seeve Drawstring Waisted Dress $68

I asked for a dress to wear to an upcoming wedding. Typically, I wear dresses with a little more structure and this was structure-less. It did have a nice drawstring at the waist to pull it in but overall, I sort of felt like I was wearing a sack. I did consider keeping it to broaden my closet, but it fit very tight in the sleeves. I have man arms and it was pretttty snug.

Verdit: returned

Next box is scheduled for early May! Can't wait! If you read this and want to head on over to Stitch Fix yourself, I would appreciate it if you used my referral link! I do get a styling credit of $25 for each referral.
