My third Stitch Fix arrived yesterday and, as usual, I was anxious to see what came in this month’s Fix. I have it set up where I get monthly “Fixes” now so I never have to worry about missing one!
If you aren’t familiar, Stitch Fix is a personal styling service for women. You provide your style, size, and budget preferences, and they will send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. There is a $20 styling fee that is applied to your order should you decide to keep any / all of the pieces. If you don’t keep anything, you don’t receive a refund of the fee. And if you keep all of the pieces, you get a 25% discount on everything! Also, I should mention that you are only charged once you “check out” at Stitch Fix. You have a few days to try everything on and the box comes with a bag and a prepaid return label so you can easily ship back the pieces you aren’t interested in.
Stitch Fix ships via FedEx. It took six days to arrive to me in MI from their location on San Francisco. I do think the nasty weather this week delayed the shipment a bit.
The first look? Meh. I had peeked on my account and knew the names of what they were sending and frankly nothing sounded overly fabulous. But I wanted to give it a fair chance, so I tried not to judge it too much!
Stitch Fix sends an “invoice” of sorts which includes a listing of everything you received in your box, the total for all the items and then goes on to list what all the items would cost after your $20 credit for your Styling Fee plus your 25% discount would be. Had I kept everything in my “Fix”, it would have been $180. That doesn’t include the $30 in referral credits I had, which would have made it $150. Here is what I received:
~Mystree Shellie Crochet – Shoulder Striper Shirt ($28): I am not overly sure on this one. It would be cute for the summer, but it’s not summer here so that’s an issue. Still it’s cute and had it come in any color besides this off-white, I would have kept it no questions. Kept or Returned? On the Fence.
~Just A Cheap Shirt Eastwick Plaid Cotton Button Up Shirt ($28): I think this shirt is adorable, but it’s not my style at all. Some people could totally rock this, but I am not one of them. Kept or Returned. Returned.
~LA MADE Benway Split Back Sweater ($78): I love the back detail on this one (I think the little split back at the bottom is cute), however, I am not a fan of the color / pattern on this one. Kept or Returned. Returned.
~Mystree Straights Top-Button Striped Knit Cardigan ($28): At first I thought there is no way I am keeping that sweater. But now I know I am! It’s not too expensive and will be the perfect thing to throw on around the house when I get cold. Kept or Returned. Kept.
~Margaret Straight Leg Jean ($98): I liked the style of these jeans, but that was about it. The color is a little darker than it’s showing in the picture, but it’s still too much for me. Kept or Returned. Returned.
All in all, this Fix was kind of a miss for me. I am keeping at least one item so I won’t lose my styling fee, but unlike last month when I kept everything, I won’t be getting that 25% discount for keeping everything. I am going to work on my Pinterest board a bit more this month and will give it a go again in February!
