stitch fix

So I heard about stitch fix from 9to5chic's site and thought it was a fun idea for these reasons.

1. I love shopping
2. I love packages
3. I love surprises
4. I love when other ppl pick out things for me to try.

mmm well this has all of that!  How it works:
1. You sign up, fill out a style survey on what you like, your size..etc
2. pay $20 dollars.
3. They will send you five pieces to try on at home with your own shoes , jewelery, accessories and no "mall lighting!"  so you can really decided what you like and also try things you probably never would've picked out on your own.
4.  Choose what you want to keep and what you don't send it back.   That 20 dollars you paid initially will go into the purchase of your item .  Shipping/return shipping is free!

  I signed up and a week later I was on their list. I filled out the survey putting mostly "classic, work, simple" and here is what they sent me!

1. BB Dakota  "Izzy Tunic"  $60  (worn with H&M jacket)



2.  BB Dakota "Audrey Classic Dress"  $100 (worn with UO sweater, Uniqlo Belt, F21 hat and sunglasses and necklace)




3.  BCBG  "rachel leopard mini dress" $ 118 (with Jcrew necklace and bracelets )



4.  Theme "Rarrah Halter Dress" $65



5.  pair of gold stud earrings, too lazy to take picture of.

Sizing:  First off, one thing I would like to commend them on is: HOLY CRAP they got my size down to the T, even better then me shopping for myself online!   everything fit purrrfectly.

Price:  I did a lil research online and their prices are the same as online AND they have free shipping and return.  So you're not paying more than you would retail and probably saving a few on shipping/returns/hassle.  

Style:  Well can't argue there, I loved everything they picked out, it's like having your own stylish pen-pal that sends you clothes every once in a while.

So what did I decide to keep?   Number 1!  the tunic, it was cheapest lol but I happen to like it the most too.  Believe me I wanted to keep the red dress, its sooo something I would have never picked out but I loved it... but Ierno when and how often I would get to wear it out.   The lepoard print was too short for work and a bit out of my price range.   The last dress was impossible to put on alone because the back is all buttons and it was a lil too sultry for my particular workplace..where sick people are.

So I returned the rest.  : sadface:

But I'm verrrrrrrrrrrrry excited to see what they send me next month.

Join with me and put me as a reference!!
