My November 2014 Stitch Fix, which is a personal styling service for women arrived yesterday. With Stitch Fix, 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 USPS return label so you can easily ship back the pieces you aren’t interested in.
Stitch Fix ships via FedEx. My box generally takes under a week to arrive to me and ships from San Francisco. If you sign up for monthly Fixes, they will atomically ship every 4 weeks or so.
My November Stitch Fix was really heavy! I was hoping that it meant that lots of winter pieces were included because it is getting cold here.
Stitch Fix comes with an information card which includes a listing of everything in the box, prices, and then a total of how much everything would be if you kept it all (it deducts your $20 styling fee and the 25% discount for keeping all of your items). Just to give you an idea, my box had a merchandise total of $430 and had I kept everything, I would have had to pay $307.50 (plus my $20 styling fee). In comparison, my October Fix would have been $267 to keep everything.
Here are the pieces I received:
~Bay to Baubles Colbie Bar Bangle Bracelet ($28): I really like this bracelet, but I don;’t think it’s something I “need” right now. Verdict: Returned.
~Sanctuary Abel Textured Knit Sweater ($98): Oh I love this. As soon as I picked it up out of the box I knew that I loved it. It’s SO soft and I love the winter white. I’ll totally be wearing something underneath it though (unlike the model on the website), because it’s a winter sweater and because that would not look good at all if I didn’t! Verdict: Kept
~Kut From The Kloth Cia Boucle Sleeve Terry Moto Jacket ($128): At first when I saw this, I thought no way. No way am I keeping that. But it won me over. First of all it has a hood and I have a strange love for hooded shirts and jackets. And I love the zipper on this and the fact that it’s so comfortable. Verdict: Kept
~Level 99 Patrick Chino Pant ($108): Nope, these pants are just not me. They fit weird (well they fit me weird) and I am just not a fan of the color or the pockets or anything. Verdict: Returned.
~Collective Concepts Wanda Floral Print Pleat Front Top ($68): I like the print of this one, but the cut and pleat front isn’t flattering for me. It’s kind of boxy and I need something a little longer. Verdict: Returned.
I am keeping two items from this Fix which I consider a win. As long as I keep at least one item so I don’t lose my styling fee, I am happy! I still need to go in and give some better / more detailed instructions on what I want them to send and maybe change up my Pinterest style board (you can link it in your Stitch Fix profile) because it’s been the same for ages!
