Stitch Fix Review #5

What’s in a Stitch Fix box?

For Stitch Fix #5, I requested a sundress and some colorful shorts.

Unfortunately, they were out of stock on all shorts, so my stylist sent me three dresses and two tops to play with instead.

Here is what I received this month.

Piece #1:

Papermoon-shirt

Top: Papermoon Ryker Button Front Tie Waist Tunic, $48, Stitch Fix

I loved the color of this.  The collar and shoulders were fantastic as well:

papermoon-blouse-collarI didn’t keep it though.  The front buttons right near my bust line gapped open.  Also, the garment puckered a little near my armpits, which was not flattering.

When I showed these pictures to my friend, Megan, she said it looks like a maternity top – and I have to agree.  I think its the front tie that makes it more suitable for a preggo tunic.

Piece #2back-front-Pomelo-top

Top: Pomelo Priya Graphic Chevron Print Mixed Material Tank, $54, Stitch Fix

Jeans: Kut from the Kloth, Stitch Fix #4

I love this top!  The front is a blousy, rayon material while the back is made of blue jersey fabric.

It fit me so well and the pattern is very eye-catching without being overwhelming.

Piece #3:

spaghetti-strap-dressDress: Pixley Shelley Spaghetti Tank Dress, $78, Stitch Fix.

I was so excited to try this dress on but disappointed with the results.  The horizontal white color block combined with

The horizontal white color block combined with the length of the hemline, made me appear short.  Plus, the dress was a little droopy around the middle.  I decided to pass.

I decided to pass.

Piece 4:striped-dress

Dress: Pomelo Clarice Multi Stripe Knit Fit and Flare Dress, $74, Stitch Fix

Necklace: Express

I really liked the look of this dress out of the box as well.  I think the problem here is hemline.

The dress would be more flattering if it were a touch longer.  I would like it to hit me just above the knees instead of 4 inches above.

I passed on this as well.

Piece #5Chevron-dress

Dress: Pomelo Harriet Chevron Print Detail Dress, $64, Stitch Fix

I loved the print and bright colors!  I was so hoping that I would love this dress on as well. It looks beautiful in the picture, but did not feel wonderful on.

I had trouble zipping it up in the back because the zipper kept catching on the fabric.

While I liked it, I didn’t love it and I’m trying to keep all my clothing purchases limited to items that I love and want to wear again and again.

I sent this back as well.

All in all, I found one amazing top in this Stitch Fix and I am totally ok with that!

If I bought the entire box every time, I would quickly go broke.

Instead, I tried a lot of pieces I would probably pass up in the store.  In doing so, I am able to better articulate my own style and what I like and don’t like about clothing.

  1. I love that chevron tank – I saw that on the Stitch Fix Facebook page recently. Great choice! I liked the other pieces too, but I think you’re smart to only stick with what you love. I’ve caught myself “wanting” to love pieces before and then regretting that I kept them when they really weren’t quite right. I added a link to the first Stitch Fix review I did. Working on writing up my third review now!

    1. Thanks Jaime!! I’m excited to see your third one 🙂 I had the same experience of keeping stuff I only liked and then regretting it later. With this Stitch Fix experience, I’ve learned not to settle for clothing that makes me feel just ok.

  2. I love that second top and the chevron print dress!! Super cute! I’m a tad jealous, I didn’t really love much about my box this month but still reviewed it and will link up 🙂

  3. Hi Megan & JoAnn I am so glad to find your blog via #SITSSharefest. I liked all of the outfits you shared. My favorite was the chevron print dress. I liked the colors. I would love to invite you to join the #WhatWivesWearLinkUp. If you are interested we link up every Thursday at godlifehappywife.blogspot.com. I hope you can join us. I look forward to following your blog. Have a great weekend! ~Sherri

  4. I think this was a great fix! I love everything. In fact, I’m going to pin the first top and second to my Stitchfix Pinterest board. Hopefully I’ll get one in my next Fix. I’ll be linkup mid month after I receive my next box.

    1. Woo hoo Nicole!! I really liked it, too. I’m just getting a little more particular 🙂 Looking forward to your linkup!

  5. I agree on the hemline on the Pomelo dress. I’ve been wanting to request it, but it seems a tad bit too short! I think the pieces all looked great on you, though!

  6. Thank you for inviting me to your link up! I love it!! How frequently do you post them?

    I have my next box scheduled for the end of Sept 🙂

    Love the tank you kept! Nice choice!

  7. I love the second outfit and the last dress. I have never heard of the website. Being that it’s Mommy Monday, I may to give this site a looksie! Thanks for the suggestion!

    1. Stitch Fix is a lot of fun Lauren! I always like something that my stylist picks for me. Also, I’ve noticed that I’ve stopped binge shopping for clothes since I know this is coming every month.

    1. Stitch Fix has addressed this question on their site before, so I know the answer! They go up to size 14 right now, but are working on accommodating more women.
