My first fix from Stitch Fix

Remember my post clear back in April about

Stitch Fix?

Well I finally scheduled my first fix, and I got it the beginning of this month.

I would say on a scale from 1-10 (one being I hated it, and ten being "it was awesome")

I'd say it was about a 6.

I didn't know how to feel about it, but I also knew that it was just the first fix.

So what happens?

You get a box of 5 items

I got 4 shirts, and one pair of jeans.

From far away, they did a good job. That's my style

Flowy shirts, and skinny jeans

Then I put them on....

Pretty cute, really soft Gray striped shirt

I got a medium, and it was pretty big

I also have something just like it...

NEXT

I didn't like how easily this shirt wrinkled

It seemed high maintenance and I wasn't having it.

NEXT

Orange is not a good color on me, but I liked the fit of this one

NEXT

This was the only shirt I liked

I'll tell you why I didn't buy it in a minute

NEXT

The JEANS

Notice how I don't have a picture? They were that bad. I'm normally a size 4, this size 4 fit like a size 6.

They almost came up to my belly button and I had "saggy butt"

Oh and they weren't skinnys, they were straight.

Horrible.

So that was my first experience. I know you're thinking

What a waste of time, and what a waste of $20

BUT. I'm going to give it another try.

My next fix should arrive the end of this month and hopefully it will be a better experience.

The best part about it is that you can go online and for each item you can leave a comment.

For instance,

I love the styles and the colors, but I need a smaller size & I hate that they are all a hand wash only material.

If it's hand-wash-only, I won't wear it..or I won't wash it. Too high maintenance for me.

So let's say I wanted all of that, what was my price?

4 shirts and one pair of jeans= $166.50

That includes 25% off the order because it's ALL items, and my $20 credit towards the purchase.

So why didn't I buy that shirt only?

Well, just that one shirt was $44.00.

THAT'S A TANK OF GAS FOR ME!

Thanks Elizabeth, but try again

I'm cheap. I like deals. I shop TJ Maxx & Ross

I don't like spending a lot of money on clothes, my style changes a lot and I just like DEALS.

So, I sent it all back and I was out $20.

The only way I see this working out, is if I liked and bought every item so I got a discount, but still, that's over $150 for 5 items.

Like I said in my previous post, this could be risky, but I was gonna try it.

I tried it, I sent back my comments about each item and then I just wrote for my next fix "keep it cheap."

I've heard good things about it, so I'm giving them a second chance.
