Stitch Fix #6 - March 2016

Stitch Fix #6 - March 2016


Before I begin, remember Stitch fix requires a $20 styling fee that will be deducted from any purchases and a 25% discount if you buy all five items.  Anything you do not wish to keep, you send back in a prepaid shipping bag.  So far I am 1 in 6 for purchasing all 5 items. If you are inspired by my blog or if I help you in any way, please use my stitch fix referral code when you sign up! Thanks! :)

For this fix I did not have very many specific requests.   The only thing I mentioned was if they could lighter colored tops for spring.  Let's get right to it!

When I read the note from my stylist, I knew right away she worked to personalize this fix for me. She peeked at my Pinterest board sent a tunic shirt that I pinned.  She also mentioned my prior feedback and my desire to try more bootcut jeans, which she did include a pair.  Finally, honoring my request for light colored shirts and flats (if I should receive shoes), this fix came through.  I also immediately loved the color pallet of the when I opened the box.  Needless to say, I was very excited to try everything on!

Nine West Onlee Pointed Flats ($69) - Returned

Stitch Fix does to shoes!  At first, I was super excited, but now I am not so sure.  If the shoes don't work, there goes the buy 5 discount.  On the other hand, I have only bought all 5 items once, and that was from my first fix.  Ok, the shoes.  I own other Nine west shoes, so I was excited to see these.  I loved the color of these flats and so wish they were not pointed.  I can't do the pointed flat. I looked and felt awkward.  Are you thinking some kind of waddling feet too?  LOL!  They were comfortable and the price was consistent as if you were purchase them elsewhere online.  Just not for me. 

41 Hawthorn Lisbon Stud Detail Blouse - Large ($58) - Returned

Part of me still wishes I kept this blouse.  I really liked the color, pattern and fit for the most part.  I did not like how my arms looked from the back.  The sleeves short of pinch up behind the arm and is not the most flattering.  I do own another 41 Hawthorn studded blouse with very similar sleeves and studs, but it is a fall/winter color and I usually wear a cardigan over it.  I really wanted to keep items that I could wear as is for the spring months at work.  I also do not want to own another studded blouse that is so similar to the one I already own.  Therefore, I returned this blouse. 

THML Alasia Embroidery Detail Tunic - Large ($68) - KEPT

When I saw this shirt I actually forgot I had pinned it.  But I am so glad I did and that my stylist sent it! The shirt is light colored and light weight.  It is a  perfect length and I love the detail.   It looks a bit wrinkled in the picture, but I have worn it since and it irons out nicely.  I do have to iron the detail after washing as well, but it is work it.  I also usually wear the sleeves rolled to make it 3/4 length.  











Brixon Ivy Bixby 3/4 Sleeve Blouse - Large ($64) - KEPT

I love everything about this blouse! the color and pattern are just what I was hoping for. It looks great with jeans and is sharp with black pants for work.  The material is smooth and light.  Although, I have other tabbed shirts, this one is much different.  I have received many compliments on this blouse.  
Needless to say, this was an easy decision!  









Kut from Kloth Simmons Bootcut Jean - Size 12 ($88) - KEPT

Finally, the jeans I was hoping for from a fix!  I have sent back many pairs of jeans in previous fixes and these were so worth the wait!  The material is a medium weight and very soft.  The length is a tiny long for me, but a small roll at the bottom is cute.  The quality of these jeans is much higher that jeans I normally buy and it shoes.  Even my husband commented on how other jeans I own are much thinner than these.  I do not like how they look with the pointed flats, but they will work with my other shoes.  

This fix more than delivered!  I was very happy with all the items, even if they did not work for me.  My stylist listened to me and delivered!  I am excited for the next fix.  Due to the expense of this fix and various other personal reasons, I am scheduling my next fix for May 2016.
