Stitch Fix - December 2014 Review

Stitch Fix is a subscription service where a stylist sends you five items each month based on your profile. You pick what you'd like to keep and send back what you don't like.

I didn't send my stylist any notes this month. My stylist was Katie.

Rosco Leopard Print Blouse - $44.00

I really liked the pattern on this shirt and the material. The fit at the top of the shirt around the shoulders was a bit tight. It kind of felt the same as when I put a t-shirt on backwards by mistake. Whenever I moved my arms around it would bunch a bit. It was uncomfortable and awkward enough to send back.

Queensland Dolman Jersey Top - $48.00

The style of this shirt reminded me very much of the 80s; the sleeves had wings and the shirt cinched at the bottom. I understand that many styles from the 80s have returned, but that doesn't mean that I have to like it.

Yep, I just copied and pasted that from my May post regarding the Aleah V-Neck Heathered Dolman Sleeve Shirt. I like the deep purple color of this shirt, but hate the style, just like I did back in May. Funny how that works.

Ada Asymmetrical Zip Faux Leather Piping Wool Pea Coat - $168.00

For a wool coat, this one is not very warm. It has the weight of my other wool coat, but didn't do a great job of keeping me warm, even though today wasn't all that cold.

However, I do like the style and I think it dresses up nicely enough to use for church. I'm just not sure it's worth the price.

UPDATE: After being undecided for a couple of days, Stitch Fix dropped the price to $134.00. I decided to keep it.

Frieda Corduroy - $68.00

I desperately need pants. I have recently had to throw out two pairs of old, worn out jeans. These cords are comfortable and warm, but a bit on the short side by about and inch or two. I could pair them up with boots as they are a skinny fit.

It looks like, for now, it's a toss up between the pants and the coat.

UPDATE: After being undecided on this for a few days, I decided that to pay this much for cords, they need to fit the way I like. I decided to send them back.

Parvin Reversible Hang Tag Detail Tote - $48.00

This tote was HUGE. That's great for a mom, but I tend to lean towards a nice, hands-free crossover bag.

This tote just wasn't for me.

For those of you wondering, it was gold when reversed.

Overall

This fix just didn't excite me at all. When it came down to it, I was debating over keeping two items, one of which I didn't really love and the other difficult to justify the price. I was especially disappointed to see another dolman shirt as I really don't like the style and had thought that had been clear in my feedback to the company.

My next Fix is scheduled for January 13, 2015, which just happens to be the day before my birthday. After that, I may consider suspending my subscription for a while as this was supposed to be a reward for maintaining a healthy lifestyle and I haven't been doing too great.

If you like what you see here, make sure to sign up for Stitch Fix and get your first Fix scheduled!
