Hey, y’all! My second Stitch Fix box came a few days
ago. As promised, I stalked the postman
until it was delivered! Ha!
For an in depth run-down of Stitch Fix, click on my first
“review” here. Here are the basics:
1. Fill out a
style profile.
2. Schedule a
fix! This can be as frequent (or
infrequent) as you would like.
3. Pay $20 – this
is the “styling fee.” However, if you
keep anything from your box, it is automatically applied to your purchase.
4. Get the clothes
and try them on in the comfort of your own home with stuff you already have.
5. You have 3 days
to mail everything you don’t want back to Stitch Fix in a pre-paid shipping
envelope. If you keep all 5 items from
your fix, you get a 25% discount.
So, this time around I requested bright colors and fun
patterns. Here is the first look at my
box:
No bright colors or fun patterns! My receipt said “grey, grey, dark green,
black, brown.” Haha! Oh well.
I was still willing to give it a try.
Here’s a closer look at everything I received (and as
the title suggests, I probably need to find a pose besides just
hands-on-hips!):
Colibri Solid Tab Sleeve Blouse
The color on this was quite pretty, but the neckline
really bugged me. I don’t know if you
can tell from the pictures but the neckline goes up pretty high on my neck on
the sides. I felt like it was a bit
restrictive and I felt like it would look odd if I wore my hair up with this neckline (is that weird?!?!). I don’t like being
limited in that way and I actually wear my hair up about 85% of the time.
Denna Colored Skinny Jean + Mission ¾ Sleeve V-Neck
Blouse
First, the jeans: I saw these and I thought I would hate
them. But ohmygosh, they are so
COMFORTABLE and I love the way they look with flats. The only downside? They are outside the price range I would normally
pay for a pair of jeans.
The blouse:
Unfortunately, I didn’t think this was anything too special. If the shirt had been in a fun, bright color,
I might have been more sold on it. Plus,
I think the sleeves look a bit funny on me…what do you think?
Jerrard Heathered Open Front Cardigan
This was another thing I thought I would hate. It also ended up being really comfortable and
it’s so soft. And I definitely don’t
hate it. But I’m not sure I love it,
either? My stylist suggested that I try
it with a white t-shirt and the skinny jeans.
Minée Half Floral Rhinestone Necklace
I love it. It’s
adorable. But it’s totally NOT me. I want to keep it because it’s sparkly and it’s
pretty, but if I’m honest with myself, I know that I will never, ever
wear it. Sad face.
Final thoughts:
This box included a bunch of basic pieces that I feel like I could have
gotten at most places. Staple pieces are
important to any wardrobe, but that’s not really what I am looking for from
Stitch Fix. The clothes are a bit more
expensive than what I normally pay, so I’m looking for fun, unique pieces. In the end, I only kept the skinny jeans. Since they were the only thing I kept from
this fix, I decided that it was okay to splurge a little…plus I didn’t want to
lose my $20 styling fee! I left a bunch
of feedback on this fix, so I’m hoping to get something a little different next
time. It was still fun, though!
