Stitch Fix 2

I was so excited when I got an email from Stitch Fix letting me know my second fix was.  I raced home from work and tore the box open.  I knew immediately it was going to be a disappointment.  Remember those awesome jeans I got in the last fix that I loved some much, well I don't know if I mentioned it on here or not but some jerk stole them out of our communal dryer just days after I got them.  I was so angry!  I emailed Stitch Fix and begged them to send me another pair.  I couldn't wait to get them.  When I saw the replacement pair I could have cried, they're the same but different.  Part of the reason I loved the original pair so much was their color.  Stitch Fix had informed me that there was no guarantee but I was so hopeful.


Item 1: ADORA SKINNY JEAN
{The jeans were awful.  The stitching on them made it look like I had a .... I don't want to say it because I know it'll bring some weirdos to my blog but it has to do with a part of a hump backed desert dwelling mammal.  It was NOT attractive!  RETURN}

Item 2: WRENN V-NECK JERSEY TOP
{The top was ok.  Not great, not terible. RETURN}

Item 3: OPHELIA LAYERED TANK AND STRIPE KNIT TOP
{I don't even know what to say about this top.  It was an attached sweater and tank which I hate and it's pastel which I hate.  I actually don't think it looks bad in the photo but it just isn't me.  RETURN}

Item 4: ADALINE GEO PRINT MIXED MATERIAL TANK
{I don't like tops that are 2 different fabrics, I don't know why, it just irritates me so I thought for sure I was going to hate this.  I put it on and actually really liked it...
 so much so that I took another photo and seriously considered keeping it.  Part of the reason I started doing this was to step outside my fashion comfort zone and this was definitely it.  It's hard to tell in the photos but the front is actually super thin and see through.  That was the deciding factor for me.  I'm too old to wear see through clothes and it looked bad with a tank underneath.  RETURN}

Item 5: INDIANAN TRIBAL PRINT MIXED MATERIAL TEE
 {This top had the most promise.  It's fun, colorful, and the pattern is not what I would normally choose (polka dots or stripes) but it fit kind of weird and I don't like the bottom half.  I would have kept it if it were all the pattern.  RETURN}



This box was a bust but I'm still confident this can work.  I'll be back again next month, hopefully with better results.

Aw man. Too bad!! I like the colors, but nothing stood out to me either.

I think I would have kept that Geo Print top, I don't mind sheer tops... but I love to layer! I have a box coming next month, eek! I hope I like!

Ooh, I thought the Adaline top looked gorgeous. Bummer it didn't work out. It seems like every top requires a tank or cami underneath it these days. *sigh* Still think that was super cute, though.

(Random blog drive by... I was looking at Stitch Fix reviews. :-)

Aw, I'm so disappointed for you! This was how my first Fix went. I was only even tempted to keep one thing. My second one was much better. Hope your next one is full of keepers!

Stich fix is so fun! I had a few boxes, but didn't love enough of the clothes to keep trying. Maybe when I make more money I will try it again!

These clothes looked great. I like 4 &5. I understand about getting out of the comfort zone. I also just started StitchFix about the same time as your first box...weird...but anyways, I only had one keeper the first box. I have my fingers crossed for the 2nd arriving next week. It's fun to anticipate the boxes though. It might be the best part!
