Stitch Fix Review | The Time I Kept The Whole Box!

Have you heard of Stitch Fix yet? It’s a personal styling/shopping service for clothing and a few months ago I decided to finally check it out. After three months of boxes I figured I had better share my Stitch Fix review!

How it Works:

1. Sign up for a fix every month or every other month and agree to pay a $20 box/styling fee. (This will be credited to price of clothing if you keep something.
2. Fill out the style profile, letter to your stylist letting them know what you need in your wardrobe(example a holiday party – a baby shower outfit…), and if you’d like create a pinterest board with some of your favorite looks.
3. Schedule your fix.
4. Wait for the little box of awesome to arrive on your doorstep.
5. You have 3 business days to decide what to keep and what to send back (in the prepaid envelope they provide).
6. If you keep nothing, you pay the $20 styling fee. If you keep 1-4 items the $20 is credited to the cost of the clothing. If you keep all 5 items you get 25% off all items!

Why I do Stitch Fix:

1. I am a blogger I had seen other people’s fixes and saw how much they were enjoying the service.
2. I am a mother of two young boys, working full time, and having my husband overseas – shopping time is VERY limited and often I can’t think straight with my boys whining, crying, playing, or being silly.
3. I am finally starting to lose weight and the state of my closet is pretty sad. Lots of my “nice” stuff isn’t so nice anymore, and as much as I try to get away with it, yoga pants and cotton tops can only go so far.  (When I started Stitch Fix I didn’t have a single pair of full length jeans that fit…)

My Review:

To date I have had 3 boxes arrive on my doorstep. I love that they come with a detailed description and style guide for all items. It’s nice to think outside the box and see how they outfits would work in other ways.  My first box I kept a dress and a top. My second fix I kept a pair of grey corduroys that fit amazingly and were VERY comfortable.  My third fix was a real winner. I kept it all.

What I got this month:

This month like I mentioned I kept the whole box. It had so many awesome staples for my closet I decided with the buy 5 discount it was totally worth it!

{1} Kut From The Kloth – Denna Skinny Jean $78

Last month I got a pair of cords from this brand, and they fit me really well so I asked my stylist for denim from the same brand, and these didn’t disappoint! I love the way they fit and they have stretch so they are also very comfortable. I really hate low rise anything, and these aren’t that. They go just below my belly button.  Status: KEPT

{2} Brixon Ivy – Adrian Plaid & Lace Blouse – $68

Okay full disclosure – I wouldn’t pay $68 for a blouse, BUT I really liked the contrast of the lace and the plaid. I liked the fit, the back is actually a cotton and the front a satiny material. I was undecided as to keep it or not, but when I realized I was going to keep my box this blouse actually was only $3 (after the 25% keep all discount I saved $65…) so it was a no brainer. Status: Kept.

{3} 41Hawthorn – Abrianna Long Sleeve Knit Cardigan – $48

I would not have kept this cardigan despite the fact that it is TOTALLY my style and my favorite color to wear. (The amount of navy in my closet is pretty crazy), but in the past month I had put holes in both of my favorite navy cardigans. This one was really comfortable and easy to wear. I had to say yes! Status: Kept.

{4} Pixley – Edmond Chevron Print Henley Shirt – $54

If I only had the ability to have kept one item from my box this month – this top would have been it. I have seen this one on other Stitch Fix reviews before, and I actually had it pinned to my board hoping it would make it’s way into my box. I LOVE how it fit, and the pattern is super forgiving. It is a cotton blend so it’s also crazy comfortable. I love it! Status: Kept. Obviously!

{5} Look By M – Jet Ribbed Infinity Scarf -$32

Okay, so while $32 is a bit pricy for a scarf in my book, my stylist specifically mentioned she noticed it was cooling off in Las Vegas and thought I might like this to keep warm. She was right. It is starting to get a bit chilly and this was such a great neutral I liked that I could pretty much use it with everything. Not to mention it was REALLY soft. I also went a little scarf pinning crazy on my boards so I was pretty happy with this one. Status: Kept.

So that was my box. The items retail cost a total of $280. (OUCH!). But with the $20 styling credit, the 25% buy 5 discount, I only paid $195. Merry Christmas to me! I kept the whole box because I felt like each item was able to be worn in several different ways, and were all great staples to build my wardrobe. I certainly don’t think I will be keeping every box as I simply can’t afford to spend $200 a month on clothing, but I like that I can get a few quality items each month sent to my door and I can try them on in my home, with my mirror, and without the boys needing my full attention. Stitch Fix works for me. After January I’m likely going to switch to every other month – maybe…

A few more things…

It should also be mentioned if you find a lower price on any of the items they will match it. I have heard (but not experienced) from other Stitch Fixers that if they had months where their stylist just didn’t get anything right at all they have had their $20 fee waved as well. I have also been told their customer service is pretty amazing. I haven’t had to use them yet, but that is good to know.

I’m holding out hope that one day they will add in fitness attire and shoes. Because then I’d never leave my house to shop again! (Okay – that’s a lie, but a girl can dream!)
