What to Choose? Stitch Fix #10 Review


I am first going to start by saying I absolutely love Stitch Fix, I love how easy and convenient it is, and I really just love getting clothes in general.  I got my 10th fix a couple weeks ago, and my 11th is in route to me now. So, before I get the next fix I thought I would share my 10th Stitch Fix box first.  However, now that I told you I still love Stitch Fix, I have to tell you that this was not my favorite fix, but you win some and well… some you don't.



What is Stitch Fix?
Stitch Fix is a personal styling service. Stitch Fix gets your style and size preferences, then send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. And No two Fix™ shipments are alike. Each one is hand–picked just for you. It costs $20 per month, and this $20 can be used towards the purchase of any of the items Stitch Fix adds to your box.


Stitch Fix #10
Like I said, this was not my favorite fix picked out for me. Other fixes have been awesome.  I know I did not leave my stylist any notes this time, but I do have a pretty good Pinterest board. So, I am not sure if they pick out clothing based on that or not.  I may have to work on my notes to my stylist next time. 


41 Hawthorne Bixby Line Printed 3/4 Sleeve Top$38



This was a great top. I loved the pattern, and the material that it was made out of. I always am looking for a great top that would be good for work or equally good being worn on a casual weekend. The only thing I was not sure about was the fit. I didn’t think it looked quite as good as it should. So, on to the next….

Fun2Fun Rhiannon Pleat Detail Sleeveless Blouse $48


Sorry about the Picture Quality, and the writing on the mirror. We still are celebrating Seahawks win, as the mirror still says "Beast Mode”!

This blouse was a good pick for me for a work shirt; With a pencil skirt it would look great. In my picture I was just wearing it with black leggings, and it didn't look too great, but tucked into a skirt I am sure it would look much better. However, the color was just not doing it for me for some reason, neither were the pleats. So on to the next…

Under Skies Clayton Split-Neck Short Sleeve Blouse $58

Typically this kind of blouse, that is loose and would go perfect with a pair of black leggings, would be perfect for me. And, when I first took a look at this shirt I thought it was a great color, and I was really excited to try it on. However, when I tried it on, the first thing I thought is that I looked like I was getting ready to go bowling. Yes, a bowling shirt. Well, that was a no go for me. Bummer…. and to the next. 

Fate Garvey Tribal Print Open Front Cardigan $68




As you can see I was really contemplating this sweater. I think I tried in on like, at least, 6-7 times. I am  the biggest fan tribal print and nice cozy sweaters. So, when you put tribal print and cozy sweater together thats it for me.  I really loved this pick, and after months of asking for tribal print sweaters in my Stitch Fix boxes I finally got them in two fixes in a row. And now for the sad news,  I love tribal sweaters so much I have way too many now. I could not justify getting another one. Oh Stitch Fix, if you only sent this months ago! Okay and now for the last item…

Aryeh Judith Abstract Stiped Fit & Flare Dress $48


Again, sorry about the mirror and the picture quality. The pictures were taken in two sessions, as you can tell, as some look okay and some are like this, haha!

When I first saw this dress I was not too sure about the pattern. I definitely would have never picked out something like this on my own. However, after trying it on, it really grew on me. The material of the dress is super soft, and it has pockets. I just adore pockets in dresses. With a blazer or cardigan, it would be a perfect dress for work.  So, I finally had a winner! 


TICKLED PINK OPINION

Well, there were a couple winners out of this 10th Stitch Fix. As you probably could tell I only kept the Judith Abstract Dress, and have already worn it. If the clothing picks could have been more in sync with my style I may have purchased more, but that is okay. I guess after looking at some other subscribers boxes for the month of February, I was a little bummed with some of my items, as I really liked some other’s fixes a lot.  By no means does this mean that I giving up on Stitch Fix though. I really love Stitch Fix, and get super excited to get my fix each month. And as I type this now my 11th fix is on it’s way to me. YAY!

Aztec Sweater Love- Stitch Fix #9 Review

I have been thinking more about where I want my blog to go, and I would love to share more of my love for clothing and fashion on here. It is a little difficult at times to do that though, dealing with time or lack thereof,  my full time office job. and more so getting the pictures I would like to share on here.  I really just wish I could have a photographer to call my own, haha. I think the hardest part not finding the time to take the pictures so much, but getting quality pictures to share. Well with a mix of my subscription reviews, and with me wanting to share more my love for clothing, here is my latest Stitch Fix that I received a couple weeks ago. 


What is Stitch Fix?
Stitch Fix is a personal styling service. Stitch Fix gets your style and size preferences, then send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. And No two Fix shipments are alike. Each one is hand–picked just for you. It costs $20 per month, and this $20 can be used towards the purchase of any of the items Stitch Fix adds to your box.


Stitch Fix #9
If you have read any of my other posts I actually skipped Stitch Fix #8. I got that one back in December, and it just was so busy that I ended up not having time to share on here. However, I did not want to miss in showing you my fix for this month, because it included one my favorites.

Ark n Co Gunther Asymetrical Stripe Fit & Flare Dress  $88
I really loved the black and white pattern of this dress, and style wise it was just right. However, it just was a little too short for my taste. And, I just got a dress exactly like this a couple weeks before online for just $10. So, as you can tell I saved myself a couple dollars.

Daniel Rainn Palermo Pleat Detail Button-Up Blouse $78
This was a great black blouse, but it looks like shirts I already have. While, I really do not think I can have enough black blouses, I just did not want to spend $78 on another one. Unfortunately, I usually tend to spend a little less on shirts. Yes, I try my hardest to be frugal.

Papermoon Jillian Jaquard Fit & Flare Skirt $48
I thought I would really like this skirt, and it was made of the softest material. However, after putting in on, I just did not like how I looked in it. Bummer cause it really was very cute.

Moon Collection Alexander Aztec Knit Drape Front Cardigan $68
Okay this was my favorite out of any Stitch Fixes that I have received thus far.  I think because I have been asking Stitch Fix to include an Aztec Sweater for awhile now. So, I was super excited when there finally was one in my Stitch Fix.  Even though I tend to not spend as much on sweaters, I had to keep this one. Cannot let my $20 credit go to waste.

41 Hawthorn Rowson Colorblock Striped Sweater $58 

After reviewing other blogger’s reviews of their Stitch Fix, 41 Hawthorn is one of the popular brands for Stitch Fix. I do not get many 41 Hawthorn shirts in my fixes. However, this sweater was pretty cute, and loved how it looked on.  But, even though I really liked this sweater, I could not justify spending lots on sweaters for myself this month, so it went back.

TICKLED PINK OPINION

Overall, my Stitch Fix #9 was great because I got my Aztec Sweater. I really think that Stitch Fix is a great and convenient way to get stylish clothing for a reasonable price. Yes, some clothing pieces are more costly than I like, but the convenience out ways the price. What I really love about Stitch Fix, is that you are not obligated to keep anything, and likewise you can keep it all if you want, and you get a 25% off discount if you keep it all. It is easy as Pie! I never can not use my $20 styling credit, so I at least keep one item. This time around I kept the Moon Collection Alexander Aztec Sweater, of course! The added plus of Stitch Fix is that after you checkout, you can schedule another Stitch Fix right away, or you can pick another date to have your Stitch Fix delivered. It is the most convenient way to shop. I cannot wait for my next Fix!

Style Delivered- Stitch Fix #7 Review


I always get  very excited about getting another Stitch Fix each month. This time around I delayed the shipment a little bit  since I was in a middle of a move, so I was very excited to get my box. 



What is  Stitch Fix?
Stitch Fix is a personal styling service. Stitch Fix gets your style and size preferences, then send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. And No two Fix shipments are alike. Each one is hand–picked just for you. It costs $20 per month, and this $20 can be used towards the purchase of any of the items Stitch Fix adds to your box.


Stitch Fix Box #7

This time around I gave a little more input into what I was looking for in my fix: pants and clothes, of course, that work for worktime and play. My new stylist, Ishara, did a great job of trying to give me what I am looking for.  I just want to say sorry about the pictures real fast before I start my post. I got a new camera, and I am still trying to figure it all out.

Kensie Johnny Skinny Jeans- $88

These were super cozy and fit perfectly around the legs and on the waist, but I have pretty short legs, so they were a little long. Nothing that a little hemming couldn’t help.  I love that these were a dark jean as well. Dark jeans are my favorite. I, unfortunately, did not keep these though because of the cost, and that I would have to get them hemmed. I know if may sound weird to some, but I have never spent more than, like, $60 or so on a pair of jeans.

Dylan and Rose Madeline Metallic Dot Belted Dress $58

This dress was very pretty. I loved the gold dot embellishments on the dress. This dress is black by the way. The picture does not show the color at all. Additionally, the dress had pockets and was super comfy. The only thing I was not sure about, was I think it looked a little too boxy on me.  Not very flattering. So I decided to let it go back.

Renee C Rossi Polka Dot Prink Neck-Tie Blouse -$48
This blouse was perfectly my style, especially for work. And I loved that I could also wear this with jeans just as much as I could wear it with a pencil skirt or slacks, and it would look great all around. The only thing that made me hesitate about this blouse, was that I already have so many black and white polka dot shirts. I actually got one in one of my first Stitch Fix boxes. So I decided to send this one back, even though it was really cute.

41 Hawthorne Bixby Print ¾ Sleeve Blouse -$48
Another top pick for me. It was either this shirt or another dress, below. It looked great with jeans, I was wearing them with the Kensie jeans. I also think this would look great with black leggings or a black pencil skirt. A versatile piece always stands out in my mind. I, however, decided to go for the dress instead.

Sweet Rain Issac Floral Pint Belted Dress- $48
I really love a sheer pretty floral print on clothing, and I do not have a dress or shirt like this.  I really would have loved to wear this dress this summer, but I think with a pair of tights and a sweater or jean jacket, it will work perfect for the fall weather.  


TICKLED PINK OPINION
I  can  never complain about having a personal stylist send me personally picked out clothing to try at home. I love it! I wish I could get Stitch Fix more often to be honest. I always try to limited myself on what I keep from each fix. This month I picked out the Sweet Rain dress, which after my $20 credit came out to be $28. If I did keep a whole fix it would have to included pieces I really loved, and then I would consider keeping it all. I, however, have not received a Fix yet that I have  liked 5 out of 5. I again will make sure that I put in detailed notes for the Stylist for the next fix. I hope for some nice cold weather clothing, a nice Aztec Drape Cardigan sounds perfect!

Stitch Fix- Fix #6 Reviewed and Stitch Fix/Birchbox Promo


Stitch Fix is addicting for me.  I try to only stick to 1 box per month, and have been really good. There are times with A wonders why I torture myself with the Stitch Fix boxes, because I never can decide what I am going to keep from the box. Yes, I try to limit myself on what I keep as well. If you have never heard of Stitch Fix here is my latest Fix. And Stay Tuned for a Birchbox/Stitch Fix special promo at end.


What is Stitch Fix?
For those who do not know what Stitch Fix is yet, Stitch Fix is a personal styling service. Stitch Fix gets your style and size preferences, then send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. And No two Fix shipments are alike. Each one is hand–picked just for you. It costs $20 per month, and this $20 can be used towards the purchase of any of the items Stitch Fix adds to your box.



Stitch Fix Box #6


For this Fix I was assigned a different stylist, Claire. She did a good job, and I was happy with her selections.  I wonder if there will be differently stylists each time now, or if I will keep the same one for a couple fixes.  I will have e-mail Stitch Fix and ask. One thing that I noticed in this box, and it is just because I am a fan of great presentation, but usually the clothing when I open the box is nicely folded and wrapped in the tissue, but this time around the clothing came looking a little astray.  Oh well. 

Bay to Baubles Nessa Love Birds on a Branch Necklace- $32

This was a cute necklace and I love gold. I also think that this would look cute with almost anything. However, I just do not need a necklace right now.  I think for my next fix I will ask for no jewelry and all clothing.


Daniel Rainn Kieraly Heart Print Short Sleeve Blouse–$68
This was just my style. I love flowy blouses. And if you know me by now, or have read any of my Stitch Fix posts before, you know I love a shirt that works well casually for weekend wear and for work. This Daniel Rainn shirt would is perfect, and it would have been something I picked out on my own if I was shopping. Great pick.


Peppermint Katarina Heart Print Dress   –$48

I do not know what it is, but I really do love heart print on shirts and dresses. I tried on  Peppermint dress in my last fix, and like this one just as much.  Again, my stylist is on a roll, a great dress to wear casually or to dress up. And, what I think was great about this dress is it was very affordable.


Under Skies Milan Lave Print Back Pleat Top–$48

In my stylist’s notes she said this was one of Stitch Fix’s best sellers. This is super cute, and I can see why it is a best seller. The only think that would have 100% sold me on the shirt was if the lace detail was black. I know, it does not make much of a difference. However, I am not much of a navy blue wearer.   It was very appealing though, and I was contemplating still whether to keep it, it did look okay with jeans.


Tulle Pascal Watercolor Rose Print Dress   –$78

I had just seen another blogger get this same dress in their fix. I think that the print was very pretty on this dress, but I just was not sure about the wrap around style of this dress on me. When I put it on I just was not comfortable with how it looked. Still a very pretty dress, just not on me.


TICKLED PINK OPINION
Again a great fix from Stitch Fix. I only kept one piece this time around, the Peppermint Katarina Heart Print Dress.  I would have kept more, but I really have been good about trying to limit myself. For my next time around I did fill out my review and notes for my next box a little more thoroughly. By no means was I unhappy with this box, but I would like more fall clothes my next time around.  I really think Stitch Fix is a good subscription if you are looking to add some new pieces to your wardrobe, that fit your style, and just do not have the time. Stitch Fix really does to a great job picking out the right pieces.  I cannot wait to see my next Stitch Fix!


STITCH FIX AND BIRCHBOX PROMO

Stitch Fix- Stylist Delivered Fix #5 Reviewed


So I have been slacking with my boxes like Stitch Fix and RocksBox, since I can schedule them as I like. But, I have had this Stitch Fix on my to-do list for a  while now, and since I now have another Fix on it’s way I thought I should hurry up and share this #5 Stitch Fix before #6 comes. So here goes...



What is Stitch Fix?
Stitch Fix is a personal styling service. Stitch Fix gets your style and size preferences, then send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. And No two Fix shipments are alike. Each one is hand–picked just for you. It costs $20 per month, and this $20 can be used towards the purchase of any of the items Stitch Fix adds to your box.

Stitch Fix Box #5



My stylist Michelle has picked out some great pieces, and while some just did not fit me as well, others were pretty good. I think with some more feedback from me, I will start to get pieces I would actually keep.


DownEast Banks Sheer Dot Peter Pan Collar Top -$28



When I first saw that it was a Peter Pan Collar Top, I was not sure about this shirt, but after trying it on I changed my mind. I really love more sheer flowy feeling tops that I can easily pair with jeans or wear with a pencil skirt for work. I would have loved this shirt more if it were a different color.  But, overall, I think it looked okay.  


Mystree Cairo Crochet Detail Sheer Back Top- $35



Crochet shirt, hmmm not sure if that exactly is my style. When I think of a crochet shirt I think more Boho Style. However, I did try this on and think it was not too bad looking, maybe not on me in particular, but cute.  I just did not think it flattered me very well, so I decided it would have to be sent back.


Potter’s Pot Monique Double Breasted Trench Coat -$48



Again, a color issue with this coat. While I may have kept this coat,  I really did not like the color.  Additionally, when it comes to my style and coats I am very picky anyways. So, when I go out and get a coat on my own, is more professional and feminine. Not sure this trench coat was for me.


Oxmo Mea Center Ruffle Floral Button Tank-  $28



I really loved the color of this shirt, and really think it would work great as a layering piece for fall. It fit very well, and I really liked it. I know it was a little plainer in comparison with the other pieces in the box, but I really do love when I can wear a piece during the hot months, and then wear it as a layering piece for the cold months. As well as wearing it casual and then wearing it pumped up a little bit for work. Versatility is what I look for in clothing pieces.


Peppermint Blair Swiss Dot Dress –$48


This picture really does not give this dress justice. It really was a very pretty dress, and fit perfectly. This was one of the top pieces to keep.

TICKLED PINK OPINION:  I always love getting my Stitch Fix box, and know that whatever is included in the box will be fun to try on. I am very impressed with the Stitch Fix stylist, and really think she needs to go shopping with me all the time, because somehow they always seem to send me clothing that fits perfectly. I never have that luck when I go shopping on my own.  I only kept one piece from this box the Oxmo shirt, as I always try to use my $20 credit. I think it is waste if you do not use it towards a piece. However, the total value if a bought this whole lot would be $187, and with the discount from Stitch Fix it would only cost $125.25. A great deal. I actually have never had a box retail this low before. I like it though. I really am excited to see what is in my next Stitch Fix.  I do plan on writing some more comments in the future so the box that comes my way fits my style even better. Stay Tuned for my next box soon! Cannot wait!
