Last week, I received my third fix from Stitch Fix. {Quick recap: my first fix was amazing and my second fix was a big let-down.} I filled out the style profile again, just to make sure my sizes and preferences were correct. At the bottom of my style profile, I included a note requesting “boho-style tops and tunics for Spring.”
You see, I had an exact idea of what I wanted to be included in this fix. I was hoping for five super cute tops (or tunics!) that I could wear from March to May here in the south. Maybe that is where the problem lies–I am being to specific in my requests. Stitch Fix #3 was returned exactly the way it came–with all five items.
My Spring 2017 Stitch Fix
Adrianna Longsleeve Knit Cardigan by 41 Hawthorn. $38.00
This was my favorite piece from this fix. I would have (and maybe should have) kept it, but I was really hoping for some Spring pieces. Spring in Alabama is warm, so I’m thinking quarter-length sleeves or short-sleeve, light weight sweaters. While this cardigan would be perfect for Fall/Winter, it just wasn’t what I requested in my fix.
Sawyer Space Dye Dolman Sleeve Knit Top by Market & Spruce. $58.00
This top was OK, it just wasn’t my favorite. Again, I feel like I had a certain vibe I had asked for with this fix, and this top just didn’t fit that vibe.
Dinah Open Front Cardigan by Staccato. $48.00
Hello….. Spring? I loved this top and if I were needing new things for winter it would have definitely made the list, but that ‘s just not what I asked for this go-around.
Biscay Knit Tee by Amour Vert. $44.00
Of all the pieces in this fix, this top was the most “Spring-iest”. It fit well and I loved the color, but I just wasn’t willing to pay this amount for a t-shirt.
Harvey Multi-Stripe Infinity Scarf by Octavia. $28.00
So obviously, I am not sure what to even do with a scarf. I never wear them because they suffocate me, which is why I specifically checked not to receive them in my fix.
Verdict: Five items sent/ five items returned. I am very thankful that the styling fee was waived for this fix. If I had paid the $25, I think I would have been much more frustrated. As it was, I am not “out” anything except my time! And it’s always fun to try on new clothes!
Awww, man — it stinks when your fix isn’t what you hoped for. I had a few like that last year and they waived the fee for me, too. I love that they offer that sometimes.
The funny thing is, I’m wearing that Sawyer Space-Dyed top RIGHT NOW. Ha! I have it in black and maroon and it’s one of my favorite fall/winter tunics. Agreed that it doesn’t work for spring in the south, though. 😉
Yes! I really liked the space-dyed top, I just really don’t need any more fall/winter clothes in my closet right now! I am so sad!
