Hello pretties,
I am a tad bit late on part two of this review. But, I posted here about my first Stitch Fix box and I wanted to share the other two pieces I received – a maxi dress and a cardigan. Take a peek…
The Maxi Dress
The maxi dress was actually very pretty in a bright blue and yellow geometric pattern. My main issue was the sleeves, not a fan of sleeveless because, real talk my arms need some work. I also did not care too much for the wide band which I thought put a big red X on my mid section. If these are your issues as well, add a denim jacket to cover the arms and to give a longer, more lean look. And, the dress was way too long and would have required some alteration.
The Cardigan
The cardigan just was not my style. The color was okay but the curved hem made the cardigan hang in a weird way. I may have liked it more had the style been more drapey or flowy and a bit longer. Just did not love it and could not see adding it to my wardrobe.
I did get a 2nd fix and returned all those items as well. My stylist is learning my style and the 3rd fix should more closely match what I wear everyday. I am still excited about this service, it is nice to have someone shop for you without leaving home. You can try Stitch Fix and let me know what you think about your fix.
Did you try it yet?

Good to see you here my Sista. Sorry the items did not work for you. I love to feel my fabrics before I try on and item, so this kind of service will not work for me. Enjoy the rest of your week.

Hey Neti, thanks Sis. I understand sometimes you need to see it in person. I’m looking forward to my next box!

I love how honest and open you were, Robin! Hopefully your next “fix” will be better 🙂

You know I love a good cardigan, Robin! The color looks pretty on you. I’m sorry both items did not work. Hopefully the next box will be better. Great post and review, doll!

Hi Nerline, yeah I really did like the fabric of the maxi but not the styling. Ready for the next box!

It does sound like a great service if you get what you like. I really liked the dress and think it looked great with the denim jacket over it too. The print is very pretty but it’s a shame about the length sleeves and band didn’t feel good to you. I they send something you like next time.
Have a lovely day! Gemma x

Hi Gemma yep I think we are getting closer to a good match.
