Stitch Fix #9

This fix almost didn’t happen because I was thisclose to canceling it; I’d depleted my shopping budget on clothing for BlogHer and have plenty of clothes to get me through summer. I quickly pushed those crazy thoughts aside though because you all know that I love getting this little piece of happy mail every month and decided to go on with the show and just request pieces for fall. Here’s what my stylist boxed up for me this month!
Pixley Abriella Waffle Knit Cardigan

Though I normally love cardigans, I’m not digging the waffle material or the color. I like the pockets though! Unfortunately, not a keeper.
Loveappella Howella Knit Top

I definitely like this shirt, but I don’t love it. If I held on to it I’m sure I’d pull it out of my closet every now and then to wear, but I’m trying to only purchase pieces that I feel great in and that I love wearing. Ya know – just trying to eliminate that universal female issue where I try on five outfits before deciding on what to wear, only to come home to clothes sprawled all over my bed that I failed to hang up before I left the house. Does this happen to anyone else?
 
Rune Porter Legging

My stylist made a comment in her note that she sent this pair of leggings even though I probably already had a few pairs of leggings, but what she doesn’t know is that I need a new pair of black leggings so bad! The last pair I bought was two years ago and they are so worn out (and may or may not have a hole in them). This pair is thick but still super comfortable. Keeping without a doubt!
PS – That pink shirt is from my June fix. I love it and wear it all the time!
41Hawthorn Filbert 3/4 Sleeve Popover Blouse

If money was no option and I was teaching, I would have kept this shirt in a heartbeat. I love the fit and love the color. I actually scanned my closet to see if I had any pieces this color, and I don’t. Wish I could keep it but it’s not a necessity.
Tart Zera Lace Bomber Jacket

Love this jacket but the price tag is sky high ($108). If this were more of an every day bomber jacket I might (for a second) consider it (like I have the money – ha!), but this one is pretty easy to let go of because of the price. 
[Note: You can set price limits in your online profile so that your stylist won’t send you pieces out of your price range. I don’t have limits set in my profile because I like to see what they send me so that I can consider all pieces.]

What is Stitch Fix?
 
Stitch Fix is a stop-anytime apparel subscription service that sends customers five pieces of clothing and accessories once a month (or more or less depending on one’s preferences) based on price points that one designates in her profile. Stitch Fix stylists hand-pick what to send each customer based on one’s online profile created upon sign up. Customers are charged a $20 styling fee upfront per shipment, but the styling fee is later applied to any item(s) the customers chooses to keep.  If one chooses to send back all five items, Stitch Fix keeps the $20 fee. A customer’s best bet is to keep at least one item since $20 has already been paid. Stitch Fix also includes a prepaid bad to send all unwanted items back. If a customer chooses to keep all five items, she gets a 25% discount off of the entire box. So awesome! I love this concept of shopping!
 
Additional note: Stitch Fix also offers petite and maternity styles!
