If you've seen my previous experiences with Stitch Fix, you know that I'm very on the fence about them. So, I decided to see if maybe the third time would be the charm. When scheduling my fix, I requested budget friendly, casual, summery clothes. I've seen other bloggers receive white skinny jeans, so I also said that I was looking for the perfect white or colored denim.
Mystree Todd Tiered Mix Striped Skirt: ($58) I didn't expect to like this as much as I do. It's really versatile and can be dressed up or down and will look cute over tights in the winter. It's crazy comfortable too. I kept it.
Sugarhill Boutique Adley Lady Bug Print Button-Up Tank: ($48) I pulled this out of the box and went "Really?! Lady bugs?! Oh, come on..." Then I put it on. I don't know why I like it, but I really do. (Also, this is not how I'll actually wear it. I was just too lazy to put a real bra back on and find a cami to go under it ;))
It looks cute with black pants, and I'm sure it would be cute with white jeans too. Not that I'd know, since none were in my box. Not so much THESE black pants, though.
Sanctuary Smith Faux Leather Trim Pant: ($98) I have been looking for ankle length black pants. These are not the pants I was looking for. The crotch bunching is super cute, right? They also had a lovely gap in the waistband in the back. They're also a very heavy material. I put them on for 10 minutes to take these pictures in the air conditioning and it was miserable. I wouldn't call them summery at all.
Tart Adrianna Ikat Print V-Neck Tank: ($78) I was on the fence about this tank. On the one hand, it's reeeeeally soft. On the other, it's $78, which is just above my typical budget for tops.
Then J dove into my selfie photoshoot. He said he loved it and that it was his favorite. Obviously, I kept it.
41Hawthorn Multi Color Chevron Stripe Scarf: ($28) Scarves in the summer are just silly, especially in Texas. Wearing it as a sarong isn't an option, either, since it's been over a year since I've been to a pool. I also have scarves checked as an item I DO NOT want in my style profile. So is orange, one of the main colors. That said, I kind of liked this scarf. It was very pretty, but I returned it - partially just because of the principle of the thing.
Well...okay. So, I did find 3/5 of the things to be keepers. While I think that StitchFix is a great idea, I'm still not sure that it works for me. I've also seen other people get notes in their boxes on why things were chosen for them - something I have yet to see. I don't know how much of that was them actually choosing things I would like and how much of it was just that they happened to get lucky. I'm really sad that they didn't send me the white denim I've seen in others' boxes. When fall comes around, I might try again - it seems like they do well with sweaters and outerwear.
