I am so excited!!! I received my first Stitchfix box today! I have been eyeing this for a while now and finally decided to try it. What is Stitchfix? It's your very own personal shopper! I am terrible at putting outfits together. I always end up grabbing a pair of jeans and a plain Tshirt. Plain and simple. I don't match things up well and I honestly don't enjoy shopping! I thought this was perfect for me! I went to their website and filled out my style profile. They ask you several questions so your stylist will know just what type of things to send you. They are also on Pinterest. I have a Pinterest board set up so I can pin things from Stitchfix and my stylist can look at my board to see what I have liked. That also helps her to get an idea of my tastes. I really liked my first box. I apologize to my husband because I think I may be hooked! There were a couple of things in my box I would have never even thought about trying. I have tried everything and I am keeping my entire box this time! Here is what I got.....
The first thing I saw when I opened my box was this bag! I immediately loved the color. I have actually been looking for a tote style bag to carry to tumbling with me. This is so stylish and the perfect size. It is a hobo style cross body bag.
Next up was this navy dolman top. I had pinned this top on my Pinterest board! I would buy this in the store. Very comfy and I can wear this everyday. Totally my style. It is a really nice quality too. Not super thin and very soft.
I pulled this out next and I admit, at first sight I wasn't feeling it! I would never have given this top a second glance had I seen it hanging on the rack. I went ahead and tried it on anyway. It fits so good and looks great with the Jeans (coming up next). I can throw a sweater over it too and it still looks super cute.
Next up...a distressed boyfriend jean. I LOVE these! The fit so nicely and look so cute on. Definitely a keeper. I am a jeans girl. Jeans and Yoga pants are my closet's best friends!
Last up....the dress. I NEVER wear a dress. I mean NEVER! Anytime we are invited to a wedding or go on vacation, I have to search for a dress. I just think I look weird in a dress. I would not have chosen this dress. It's purple, really purple! I look good in purple though (well I think I do anyway) so I tried it on. It fits like a glove! I have never had a dress that fit so well. I actually didn't feel like I looked awkward in this dress at all! Will I wear it all the time? No, but it will be perfect to have in the closet when I need it. Looks super cute with a gray sweater thrown over it too. I'm a huge sweater fan bc I am always cold...ALWAYS!!!!
Another thing I love in my box was this little card. It included a not from my stylist and a couple of ideas on how to wear each piece. I need this. I have no imagination when it comes to clothes. Remember...I said I cannot match things up well. I would never have thought to throw a casual sweater over that dress but it works.
After you have checked out everything in your box and tried it on, you decide what to keep or return. I really suggest trying it all on too! I am keeping it all so I will go onto the website and checkout. There is a prepaid UPS bag included in your box and you can return one or all five pieces if you want to. Easy Peasy! If you keep all five pieces, they give you a nice little discount. Let me put it this way...if I send the dress back, my total will be more than if I keep it. The dress was the only thing I was on the fence about, but since my total would actually about $5 more if I return it, I'm keeping it!
If you think Stitchfix is for you, try it out! You can sign up for just one month or you can choose a continuous subscription. I scheduled one month and plan to do one box per season (I think...maybe two!). Click on this referral link to get started. It helps me out if use the referral link.
If you don't want to do that, just go to stitchfix.com.
