Stitch Fix Review

It's been quiet over here for a while. Now that school and work have started, I seem to have little or no time for blogging. But I got really excited to share about this Stitch Fix personal stylist service I stumbled upon. Now I will begin by saying it is a bit pricey. But I have a theory on how to make it less so...and I am counting on my husband not reading the blog. :)

So what is Stitch Fix? It is a service for women who don't have time to shop! OK, maybe it's a service for women who can't get enough of shopping. Either way, you fill out a style profile and they send you 5 items that are tailored to your style and taste. You pay $20, a fee that will be credited toward anything you purchase, and you can choose to have the service once a month or every two months etc. You also can receive a 25% discount if you decide to buy all 5 items.

So here are my thoughts after receiving my first Stitch Fix.

Pros: I LOVED everything they sent! They nailed my style. The styles in the box went together to create 3 complete outfits I could wear to work or for casual. Great quality items. The dress was lined and the fabrics/stitching on each item was good quality. Almost everything fit perfectly! It's free shipping both ways and they send you a card with outfit ideas for each item!


Cons: Expensive. If I bought the entire box it would have been $220 (and that's with the 25% discount). Now if that came once every two months and I was always able to create three outfits each time, I think that might be OK. We will have to see though....I think I'll try one more month and see! (famous last words)

I received:
1 dress
1 striped top
1 patchwork top
1 pair of jeans (jeans were too tight in the legs for me, if I was a teen it would probably work)
2 bracelets

In the end I'm keeping the striped top only. I think it will be a favorite. If you sign up (for lack of sounding like a pyramid scheme) make sure you sign up through me or someone else, through a Facebook invite or something so I/they and (you I believe) can get a credit toward a purchase!

Happy shopping!
