Stitch Fix #4 Review

The Box:  Stitch Fix

The Cost: $20 styling fee which is applied to items you choose to purchase.

The Goods: 5 articles of clothing and/or accessories hand chosen for you based on your style profile.

I think this might be my first Fix that actually included a note from the stylist.  This is also the first Fix I've received since linking a Pinterest board.

41 Hawthorn Florence Colorblocked Dress: ($68)  Oh man.  This one was tough.  I actually really liked it and the cut was rather forgiving for my shape.  I could see wearing it with heels and a blazer or with flats and a denim jacket.  However...I have a TON of black dresses so I just couldn't justify throwing $68 at another one.  If I came across a similar style for less, I'd totally buy it.  Sent Back

Oh, since my phone was dead I couldn't use the remote control app for my camera.  J was super kind and offered to take the pictures for me...or at least I thought he was kind until I found the 20 or so extra pictures like this one.

I look like a horse.

19 Cooper Cathleen Split-Neck Tulip-Sleeve Blouse: ($68) Meh.  I didn't hate it, but there was nothing special about this top.  I think I might have liked it more if it had been a bit longer or less boxy or...something.  I did like the color, though...especially with the jeans they sent. Sent Back.

Just Black Adora Skinny Jean: ($88)  Oh man.  These were extremely soft but I just couldn't let myself keep them for a couple reasons.  They were a little snug in the hips but were really long (hence the bunching at the ankles.)  For $88 they better be pretty damn perfect.  While I'm down for splurging on quality denim, I'm also reluctant to spend that much money on "trendy" jeans.  I really, really want some colored denim now though. Sent Back.

Tart Katniss Geo Print Dolman Sleeve Top: ($48)  Gilt had this top recently for $45, so it's nice to know that Stitch Fix's prices aren't outrageously overpriced.  I wasn't sure about this top at first but once I put it on I fell in love with it.  It's unlike anything I own plus it's way comfy. Kept.

J told me to be fierce.  This is what he got.

Kut from the Kloth Houndstooth Blouse: ($48) J really liked this on me, but it was sort of tight across the shoulders.  I found it on sale on Amazon for a bit over $20 so I might actually order it in a size up to wear with leggings.  It's worth noting that the green version is $68 on the Kut from the Kloth site, so $48 is a decent deal compared to that. Sent Back.

Even though I only kept one item, I feel like Stitch Fix is finally starting to get me.  For one thing, it seems like they paid attention to all of my whining about it not being super cold in Texas and didn't send me any heavy sweaters.  I liked the style of everything except the blue top, so I have high hopes for my next fix.
