Stitch Fix - Fix #4 August 2015

Stitch Fix is a monthly styling subscription service. When you sign up you fill out a surprisingly in-depth Style Profile about your sizes, your style, and pricing preferences, and then your personal stylist sends you 5 items to try once a month. This can include or exclude accessories as well.  The fee for this service is $20, and that includes FREE shipping and FREE returns. If you decide to keep any of the items they send you, you get to deduct the $20 fee from the total. (If you decide to keep all five items in your "fix", you also get a 25% discount!) 
Once your Fix is delivered, you get to try them all on and decide if you want to keep any of the items or send them back in the prepaid return envelope.  Whatever you keep, you pay for.  If you don't like anything, you send it all back and you are just out the $20 styling fee.

 Stitch Fix - Fix #4


 This month, I decided to try out accessories.  I never buy jewelry and I really need a few necklace options.  I didn't bother taking photos of the clothes this month, so I included pictures of the style cards.

  Genevieve Stacked Chevron Pendant Necklace - $28.00


Thoughts: Love.  Exactly what I wanted.  Looks great with the dress I kept from my last fix :)
Verdict: KEPT!

Montgomery Chevron Cross-Fit Top - $48.00

Thoughts: Hated it.  I am not a fan of tops that are draped like this.  I'm really over chevron print too. Pass.
Verdict: Returned

Loveappella Tilly Lace Overlay Knit Tank - $48.00

Thoughts: Eh. Looked cute on, but the material was surprisingly thick and heavy.  The style isn't work appropriate (too much shoulder) and is too heavy for Texas summers, so back it went.
Verdict: Returned
 
Pixley Abi Colorblock Maxi Dress - $88.00

Thoughts: Okay, so far I've kept every maxi dress SF has sent me.  I am pretty certain I said no more maxis in my note, but alas, another maxi came.  These maxis are fabulous, but they are just so darn expensive! I honestly didn't even want to try it on because I already told myself I wasn't keeping it.  My closet is officially maxi dressed out!  It was adorable though and felt great on.  If it was half the price I would have kept it.
Verdict: Returned (but it was adorable)
 
 Liverpool Denise Boot Cut Jean - $78.00


Thoughts: Eh. These jeans were okay.  Just okay.  I have only bought jeans from the Buckle for the last 10 years, and these cost just ask much as my usual BKE jeans.  When I buy jeans, it is for the fit AND the design on the back pocket.  These were plain, the fit wasn't fabulous, and not worth the high price.
Verdict: Returned
 
Overall, I was disappointed in this fix. I really, really wanted a pair of shorts, but apparently they were sold out.  I requested that this fix be tailored to my upcoming vacation (can't wait to do a post on my trip!) and it really missed the mark.  Jeans and a heavy knit top for the beach?  Pass.  I did love the maxi, but I just can't keep filling my closet with maxi dresses. I am happy with the necklace though and I will definitely be taking that on my trip :)
