Stitch Fix #9

July 24, 2015 by Erica 13 Comments

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.]

Pixley Abriella Waffle Knit Cardigan – Returned
Loveappella Howella Knit Top – Returned
Rune Porter Legging – Kept

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!

    Oh my goodness, I love the 3/4 sleeve shirt on you! That's some serious self control not to keep it! I am on a hiatus so as not to accumulate clothing before my move, but I will be getting a box promptly afterwards. 🙂

    I'm completely in love with that first cardigan. I don't understand why you don't like it haha I need to buy myself some more for this fall and winter. I could live in skinny jeans (or leggings), a tank top, cute cardigan, and boots. My favorite outfit EVER haha I may have to try Stitch Fix this fall! 🙂

    I really love that green 3/4 sleeve shirt, but this time it was more about the funds vs. how often I would realistically wear it. 🙁 Kinda sick about sending that one back!

    What a bummer of a box for you. Personally, I loved those first two items on you and I loved that 3/4 sleeve blue shirt. They sent me the same shirt in May but it was too snug. I'm hoping they send again in a different size. I actually didn't get a June fix (not sure why) and my July fix was supposed to arrive 7/24 but it never did. Now it shows "delayed" on my account. I'm getting increasingly frustrated with them.

    Yikes… that would frustrate me. 🙁 I've never heard of that happening! What a bummer. Now that you mention it, I think I actually remember when you got the 3/4 length shirt because I remember commenting how much I liked it on you! I'll have to go back and look, but I'm pretty sure I did! Ha! I really liked the shirt, but I just can't spend the money on it right now since I don't have many occasions where I dress professionally.

    I think having SF has actually helped with my self-control! Ha! Since their prices are a little higher than I normally like to spend I've learned the power of saying "no" to pieces unless I really love them or have any immediate need for them (like I dress to a wedding).

    Well you are very sweet! Thank you. 🙂 And I don't believe you can ever have too many pairs of leggings. 🙂

Meet Erica

Hi! I’m Erica, and I absolutely adore sharing my life on this website with you!

I come here almost daily to blab about all of the things related to being a regular wife and mother in today’s ever-evolving society. I share about our new home, what’s on our kitchen table, what we’re hanging in our closets, where we’re traveling to next, my crazy 5 a.m. work outs, how I make time for girlfriends, our faith, and much more. We always have a lot of balls in the air and somewhat thrive on the chaos.

I believe in the power of story-telling as a form of inspiration and entertainment, so I’m here to do both! I was born and raised in north Alabama and recently re-planted roots here again after my husband transitioned out of the Army (he is now in the Reserve and it’s going so well!) I’m a super proud mom to three little girls (ages 7, 5, and 1) who seem to be the stars of the show around here (for good reason – they’re pretty great!)

I’m so glad you found me and are here reading! I hope we can get to know each other here on the blog as well as Facebook and/or Instagram. xoxo
