Stitch Fix is a personal styling service for women. With Stitch Fix, you provide your style, size (they also do maternity fixes), and budget preferences, and they will send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. You only pay for the items you love and decide to keep. There is a $20 styling fee which 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. 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.

My Stitch Fix shipped via FedEx (out of Dallas) this month and took just a few days to arrive. Stitch Fix ships from a few different warehouse locations in the US. I used to think they shipped based on your location, but now I am not so sure because my previous boxes all arrived from Indiana and this one was from Dallas.

The first thing I noticed in this one was the shoe bag!

I didn’t realize I had my blog linked in my profile on Stitch Fix, but clearly I do because she read my post from last month.  That is actually great though because I am not the best at completing my reviews on the Stitch Fix site.

My April 2016 Stitch Fix included the following pieces:

~Loveappella Paulo 3/4 Sleeve Lace Detail Knit Top ($58): I keep going back and forth on this one. I like the detail on the back, but not on the bottom of the shirt.  It’s longer which I like, but ultimately I can’t see myself reaching for it in the closet enough for me to keep it. Verdict: Returned.




~Gentle Souls Portobello Loafer Flats ($150): I had been so excited to get shoes in a Fix, but I am not a fan of these.  Well, wait, I like them (and they are comfortable), but don’t have much use for them and they are too expensive for me.  They seem to be quite well-made, but for red shoes that I would likely only wear here and there, I just can’t justify the price tag. Verdict: Returned.



~Market & Sprice Bernadette Lace Overlay Raglan Top ($58): Totally cute on someone else, but I can’t see myself in this at all.  The lace mixed with the t-shirt sleeves just doesn’t look right on me.  Maybe if it was in a different color? I am not sure. The cut is great though and I like the 3/4 length sleeves. Verdict: Returned.




~Dear John Kyleigh Straight Leg Jean ($78): I should really change my fix to note that I don’t need any more demin.  With summer coming (well, I hope it gets here anyway) they aren’t a shopping priority.  All that said though I had a hard time putting these in the return bag.  They are soft and color / fade is just about perfect.  Verdict: Returned.



~Kensie Mally Ponte Jacket ($88): Super cute!  I’ll probably wear it more as a cardigan than an actual jacket, but I think that’s the point.  It’s a little more than I would typically spend on something like this, but with the $20 styling fee discount (which I would otherwise lose), it’s a bit more reasonable. Verdict: Kept.



I was quite pleased with this month’s Stitch Fix.  The items were good selections for me and really I wasn’t too far from keeping most of them.
