Stitch Fix Review – OOTD #106
Hello pretties,
I am so excited to share this post. Stitch Fix, now offers plus-size clothes in sizes 14W-24W and 1X-3X. If you have not heard about Stitch Fix, it is a wardrobe styling service. You tell your stylist what you like by answering a series of style questions and they handpick clothes and accessories for you and then send you a box of goodies. My box had 5 items – top, dress, jeans, cardigan, and a necklace. Checkout my unboxing and styling…
The First Fix
The goodies
Top – gold cold-shoulder
Jeans with distressed details
Perfect look!
This first box was pretty nice. The price range for the items was $50 to $100 dollars and the quality was excellent. But I have to say, I thought it was a bit pricey, for example, the jeans were $78 which is above the price I generally pay for jeans. The top was $44 and the necklace was $34. Now, there were two more items in the box, a maxi dress priced at $78 and a cardigan at $48. Both were good but not great. The shape of the cardigan was not attractive on me and the maxi was way too long and showed my arms – not my best feature.
Passing on the maxi and the cardigan
Although I loved this outfit, I opted to return this fix which is super easy with a prepaid envelope provided.
Just drop off at the Post Office and you’re done
Overall, on the pretty scale, I would say my first fix was Pretty Awesome. The items I liked were on point with my lifestyle – casual and comfy. But the prices were a bit more than I would want to pay. I scheduled a second fix because I am so thrilled the good folks at Stitch Fix value the plus size shopper. I cannot wait to share my next fix with y’all. You can try Stitch Fix and let me know what you think.

OOTD – #38 Floral Dress – eShakti Review
Disclosure: I was not financially compensated for this post. I received a sample for review purposes. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience.
Hello,
I am so excited about this post. If you’ve been in the blogosphere for 5 minutes, then you have most likely seen an eShakti Product Review. I have seen them and wondered about this company. Soooo when I checked my Inbox and saw the email from eShakti offering me a product to review, I was ready to shop for something special!
Who is eShakti?
eShakti is an India based international fashion design company that makes custom clothing for women size 0 through 36. They sell a very wide range of clothing including dresses (seems to be the most popular item), tops, jackets, skirts and a section for wedding attire. Jane, the representative was awesome. She sent a link to over 200 products. I mentioned wanting to rock more dresses in my OOTDs, so I selected:
Graphic floral embroidery split neck dress with inset waist and textured banding in a charming poplin accentuating the retro A-line style.
Slips on over head; partial side zip closure.
Sleeveless, bra strap keeps.
Bust darts to shape.
Wide box-pleat skirt.
Side seam pockets.
Below knee-length.
Cotton, woven poplin, pre-shrunk and bio-finished, light crisp feel, no stretch, midweight.
Machine wash.
I provided my measurements to ensure a good fit. Some of the other features of this dress are the pretty floral print, detailed embroidery, pockets-love pockets, and a nice lining! I also selected the sleeve type and hem length. The fit is pretty good. I think I over measured because I didn’t want the dress to be too snug.
I like this dress a lot and was pleased with the quality of the fabric and the construction of the garment. It’s very lady-like and quite comfortable. The neck and waist detail are the stars of this dress. The normal price point is $79.95 which is very reasonable for a custom-made dress. The delivery time was very quick around 7 days. I really don’t have any issues with this dress or ordering process. One suggestion, make your measurements very precise for the best fit.
I wholeheartedly recommend eShakti and for my lovely readers, eShakti is offering an exclusive coupon code “chrbnes” to get 10% OFF at eShakti – valid from 07/09/2014 – 08/09/2014. And, Register now and get $25 OFF your first order. That’s a nice discount for your first item!!
