I am sooooo excited to receive my very, very, VERY first Stitch Fix box! After looking at tons of reviews from Stitch Fix fanatics all around the internet, I proud to offer my take on this online personal style subscription service.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Stitch Fix, here’s how it works.

1. Fill out your Style Profile

Begin by filling out the Style Profile. This helps them understand your size, style, shape, budget and lifestyle. Completing your Profile takes about 10 minutes.

2. Pick the date you’d like to receive your shipment

Select a delivery date from the calendar. At the time your Stylist selects your items, you will be charged a $20 styling fee. That $20 will be applied as a credit toward anything you keep from your shipment.

3. Try everything on in the comfort of your home

Make sure you to try on everything our Stylists have picked for you because you never know what will look great on you. Create new outfits by pairing what’s in your shipment with items that are already in your closet.

4. Buy what you like and return the rest

Take three days to decide what you’ll purchase and what you’d like to send back. You’re only charged for items you choose to keep when you check out.

Check out by logging into your account to pay for the items you want to keep. The $20 styling fee will be applied as credit toward any items you purchase. If you buy all five items, you get 25% off the entire purchase

Simply return the items you don’t want in our prepaid mailer and drop it into any USPS mailbox. Stitch Fix provides free shipping both ways as a benefit of using the service.

I love that my stylist, Amber, wrote me a personal note!

Welcome to the Stitch Fix family, Kenia! I hope this note finds you well and enjoying the last few moments of summer. Hard to believe that it’s already back-to-school time! Thank you for sharing your Pinterest board and photo! You’re right… you look so much younger than your age! Just beautiful! To help you achieve Beyonce”s style, I have selected form-fitting pieces with a touch of edginess. Try the DL1961 skinnies with the sexy and silky Bailey44 blouse for girl’s night out. When headed out for a night on the town, try either the Mindi textured dress or the Quintin dress paired with a strappy heel or bootie and the Zella satchel for a fun pop of color. Both dresses offer an amazing stretch and will show off your curves in all the right places. Please let me know what you think and have fun trying them on! Aloha – Amber.”

So here are the items that Amber sent me based on my style profile.

Now, I know these items don’t look all that interesting from the picture above, but Stitch Fix recommends that you try everything on because you might feel differently about it once on your body. So, that’s exactly what I did!

DL1961 Cherise Skinny Jean. Price to keep: $178.00

I absolutely love the way these jeans fit on me. They are super stretchy and comfortable, but look very chic and stylish. Here, I am dressed down for a backyard barbecue, but it’s just as easy to dress these jeans up for a night on the town, as my stylist suggested.

Below is the styling card that came from Stitch Fix.

Bailey44 Gallard Mixed Material Blouse. Price to keep: $148.00

You can see me wearing the blouse with the jeans in the photos above, but I wanted to show some more of the detail that’s hard to see there.

The blouse is made of mixed material. 100% silk in front and 94% rayon/6% spandex in the back. It has a very elegant look and feel, but is super comfortable to wear. I struggled with the decision to keep or send back because the price tag is quite extravagant for a dressy tee!

I dressed this down, but see other styling options from Stitch Fix.

Urban Expressions Zella Satchel. Price to keep: $64.00

I DO NOT need this bag. I have many like it, but not in this beautiful fall color. It comes with a longer strap so that you can also wear it across the shoulder.

Bailey44 Mindi Textured Knit Dress. Price to keep: $$178.00

I would have never picked this from the rack and I almost didn’t try it on! This dress was a lot of fun to try on. I’m glad I did! I really liked the ruffled texture of the dress, which plays off of light and movement. I wish I had some Stitch Fix accessories to really help with the styling!

MISA los angeles Quintin Dress. Price to keep: $198.00

This dress was the highlight of the box! I was a little skeptical because it’s shorter than what I would normally wear. But, when I tried it on, I couldn’t believe how good and confident the dress made me feel! I really like the boho character of the dress, exemplified in the wide sleeves and draped front. This is Boho night out! The MISA tag on the back is very classy, though I don’t think anyone would ever see it.

STATUS: KEPT

Here is the Stitch Fix styling card that came with the dress.
