I got another Stitch Fix! I apologize in advance that my photos aren’t the highest quality this time around. I usually shoot outside for better lighting but it’s been below 20 degrees here all week so I was not trying on these short sleeved and sleeveless outfits outside! I’m still figuring out the intricacies of indoor lighting, so bear with me.
If you’re not familiar, Stitch Fix is a subscription box service that has you fill out a style profile survey, and then they send you 5 clothing items to try on – you decide what to keep and what to send back!
Kut from the Kloth Cai Bootcut Jeans – $88
I’ve stated on my style profile I don’t want pants, so when I saw jeans were coming I figured they’d be going back. Then when they arrived and I saw they were WHITE jeans, I knew there was no chance no matter how well they fit. Don’t get me wrong, white jeans look great on many people, but I am a known klutz. Why just this morning I spilled my cup of coffee all over my pants, couch, and blanket. Thank goodness i was just wearing black yoga pants and not $88 white jeans. These things wouldn’t last more than a day with me. The fit was decent but they were also a bit too long for me, and I’m not really short or anything (5’6″). This was the easiest thing for me to ever send back to Stitch Fix. Returned.
Papermoon Bastille Tulip Sleeve Blouse – $44
I really loved the color of this. I thought it was a little overpriced at $44 for a plain blouse, and I also wasn’t crazy about the style of the sleeves. I don’t know how much wear I would get out of it. Returned.
RD style Gia dress – $58
So out of the box this looked like a boring, overpriced black dress. I’m not really a boring black dress person. I have one black dress in my closet, don’t need another. Trying it on it was very tight and absolutely hugged every curve – and even the tiniest roll of fat. It was the type of dress I put on and thought to myself, if I lost about 20 pounds I would feel super confident wearing this! But I’m not going to keep it in my closet waiting/hoping that day will ever come, so back it goes. Returned.
41 Hawthorn Presley Color block button back sweater – $68
Sensing a trend with things that just weren’t worth the price in this box? To be fair, I pinned this item because I think it’s a neat pattern. But it would have to fit perfectly for me to keep it for $68, and unfortunately I found the sleeves to be just a bit too tight for comfort. Also it didn’t help that my husband hated it – he thought it was super dorky looking, especially with the buttons on the back. Returned.
Fun2Fun Walden V-neck blouse – $44
Because I didn’t want to end up losing my $20, this is what I ended up keeping. It’s a fun, bright color and a simple, lightweight shirt. The place where I work is super warm all the time so this will be good. Kept.
All in all I had some mixed feelings about this fix. I liked all the tops they sent well enough, but the dress and the white pants were definitely not me. I’ve been slacking a bit on leaving detailed notes so maybe I need to step up for next time!
If you’re interested in signing up for your own Fix, I would love it if you’d use my referral link – it would give me a $25 credit to use on a future fix, and doesn’t cost you anything. I used a friend’s link when I signed up for mine so I could help her out, so I know it’s much appreciated!
Check out my other Stitch Fix reviews here:
I’m still absolutely in love with your hair, Becky. It frames your face so well! I really liked that green blouse, but I totally agree, not for the price. That color is amazing on you though!
Aww thank you so much! I’m very happy with my shorter hair!
Another box filled with cute items. I swear you have one of the better stylists at Stitch Fix. You are adorable in that black dress btw! Actually you are adorable in all the pieces!
Thanks! I’m lucky to have a great stylist. I always tell people if they’re going to try it out they should request Julie. She’s been awesome!
Love all the cute tops. You look great in that dress.
Thanks so much, Candy!
Nice stuff. I’d return the white jeans too. I spill stuff daily.
Me too haha. White is not a good color for me!
I like the blouse you kept! StitchFix isn’t really my thing, partially because I enjoy the shopping process, and partially because of the prices. I’m loving your new blog design, by the way!
Thank you! The prices don’t thrill me haha but I don’t love shopping. I love the idea of it but then when I actually go I get bored or frustrated easily.
Such cute pieces this go around! I haven’t done a Stichfix in about a year, but really need to give another one a whirl! They have really cute stuff.

Thanks! Definitely give it another go, it’s always fun to get a little bit added to your wardrobe from time to time!
I love the top you kept! The green one was awesome too! I know what you mean about having mixed feelings about things though. Sometimes it’s hard to justify the prices!
Thanks! I would have loved to have kept both tops if they were half the price haha.
I think you look great in the dress & the top you ended up keeping!
Thanks so much Lucy!
I’ve thought about trying one of these boxes! Very cool 🙂
I definitely recommend trying it at least once! It’s a lot of fun to get one of these in the mail 🙂
I’ve never tried Stitch Fix but these subscription boxes seem pretty cool. Thanks for sharing your experience.
All the Best,

Thanks Allison! I definitely recommend giving Stitch Fix a try – it’s a fun experience!
I really like the top you kept, and I actually liked the green one too. I think that dress looked fabulous on you, but if you felt uncomfortable, then you wouldn’t wear it, so it was smart to return.
Thank you! I feel like it was one of those dresses that I could pose in for photos and pull off really well, but just wearing it in general without the “hands on the hips” pose wasn’t as flattering, haha.
i think you looked great in the dress! no way would you need to lose weight to wear it 🙂
Thanks so much Anna! My husband said I just think that the dress didn’t look good on me because I have bad posture, haha. That probably doesn’t help!
I’ve never tried Stitch Fix, because I can’t get over how expensive everything is! Do you think it’s worth it to have a subscription?
Coming Up Roses
I do, because it fills my wardrobe with quality pieces that I might not have found otherwise. I will say though that I get a shipment every other month (not every month) and usually only keep one or two items. There’s no way I could keep more than that every time!
had no idea it existed. probably too expensive for me since the dollar sucks for us canadians.
Ugh, I know that the exchange rate is pretty rough for Canada right now. Hopefully that turns around or maybe they’ll even offer a Canadian version!
I have been meaning to try Stitch Fix too, will definitely use your code if I end up signing up with them. That magenta top looks really great on you, good you kept that.

Thank you! I hope you do give it a try at least once, I think it’s worth it to treat yourself 🙂
