June Stitch Fix Review

Have you heard of Stitch Fix? Since loosing weight I've basically emptied my closet of things to wear. I live in workout clothes! 

I said when I hit my goal weight I'd go shopping. That was in April. I've tried a few times but with kids in tow I don't usually get to look long. Trying on clothes that end up not fitting is a hassle.  I have trouble putting outfits together. I'm kinda picky and it becomes a very overwhelming process for me.
 I also don't like shopping alone. Is that weird?!? 
Some times I just need a 2nd opinion. 
I miss shopping with my mom! 
Of course it's probably saved me lots of money haha!

 A few of my friends told me about Stitch Fix and I thought I'd give it a try. Stitch Fix is a clothing service that is mailed to you. You pay a $20 style fee and fill out a very detailed survey about you, your body type, what you like, price ranges and then can make a pinterest board of inspiration. They review it all and then send you a box with 5 items.

 You keep what you want and send back the rest in the return envelope they provide but, if you keep it all you get a 25% discount. 
Plus your $20 styling fee is applied to what you purchase! 

You don't have to do it monthly either. Maybe you just want it seasonally or for a special occasion. You get to decided. 
So I like the flexibility! 

My 1st box arrived today! I was very skeptical upon opening it! 
OH MY WORD!
I'm in love with every item in the box. 
This is going to get me in trouble! LOL! 


I'm no model but here goes nothing :) 


Pieces #1 & 2 

I love this outfit! This is a Bastille Black Tulip Sleeve Blouse. It's light weight, airy and pairs greatly with the Emer Printed Straight Leg Pants! I thought the pants were going to be too small and I was sad because I wanted some fun dressy spring pants but they fit perfect for my body type! What?!? I mean how many pants have I tried on that I hate! My new favorite dressy outfit! Oh and the pants are soo comfy! The pants are a little long but go great with heals and I could probably just roll them some for flats or sandals. 
They feel like leggings but more flattering and a thicker fabric not that cheap stretch stuff. 
I mean how cute is this! 
I love the top because it's great mix and match piece that can be paired a million different ways. 


Piece # 3
I was drawn to this Colibri Floral Print Sleeveless Top right away! The fabric is a flowy fabric, orange with grey flowers! I love the color combo. The cut of the top is great. It's a little longer in the back than the front which is great for me! It's a flattering fit and color. Plus it can be casual or dressed up. 


Pieces # 4 & 5
Now this Rachel Maxi Dress is amazing! I Love the pinky/purple chevron print! The dress has wider straps, not to low cut in the front and flattering waist line. I also loved that it's partially lined!! It's not to thin of a fabric either! It's made well and oh so comfy! It's going to be my new favorite go to dress! I would wear it as is but if it's chilly I could simply add on the Dark Wash Denim Jacket I got as my final piece. I loved the jacket too but it's a little tight in the upper arms. I figure it's denim and it will stretch, plus I'm still toning and losing weight and I need a new denim jacket. 



Another great thing they include is style cards! That way you can try to make other outfits with items you may have or can build upon the piece you got! I love that! Sometimes I'm not great at mixing and matching so that helps so much!


So I wasn't going to keep the jean jacket but it's actually cheaper if I do because of the 25% discount if I buy it all. So I'm just jumping in and keeping it all! I think.........

The floral pants are very pricey and would be a splurge but I loove them!  I have 3 days to decide. I'm going to double check with hubby and see if he likes it all. Then make my final decision on Monday! I think it will be good to sit on it a few days. Just incase it's just the excitement. Trying to spend wisely too! So what do you think?!? 
Would you want to try it? 

I'm completely pleased with my 1st box. Still can't believe it all fit. If you want to give it a try just click on over to Stitch Fix

UPDATE: I actually only kept the Maxi dress! While I loved everything after trying it on again I just wasn't feeling the florals and I have a black shirt very similar to the one sent. I've worn the maxi dress several times and its been great go to dress! 

While I do have some affiliate links in my posts. 
I'm not being paid to tell about Stitch Fix
This is my real genuine review of my 1st box. 
If you sign up and order your 1st box I will receive a $25.00 credit! 
So will you give it a try! I think you would love it!! OH and If you like any of these outfits feel free to pin the images for your stylists or own inspiration. 

Enjoy!

Julep Maven - Birthday Gift!


Warning....This post has nothing to do with crochet. I just wanted to take the opportunity to share a new product I love. I bought myself a non-crochet birthday present. My birthday is next week (Aug 14th) just incase you were wondering :)

My friend Rachel of Silly Stitches posted about her nail polish fetish and she had lots of pretty bottles! I saw a brand I didn't recognize called Julep! She had a lot of it LOL! So naturally I asked her about it. I found them on Facebook and saw lots of wonderful reviews and then I got sucked into all the pretties on their website!

They have this fun Nail Polish subscription and Rachel so kindly offered me lots of coupon codes she had! So I got a $19.99 intro maven box for free just had to pay shipping! That gorgeous box came into today! It had two full size nail polish colors that I picked from my maven profile (Classic with a Twist), A full size bottle of foot cream, and surprise a sample of hand scrub.

Subscriptions scare me but you can choose to skip months at anytime with out penalty and you can cancel at anytime. I've hear customer support is hard to get to but once you do they take super awesome care of you! I've ready a lot of great things about it! If you do choose to skip months you don't get to see what's in the secret store! I don't have the privilege of looking at it yet but I've read about mystery boxes with great things in them! I can't wait till I have access! Although if I end up with more polish than yarn I might get into trouble. Haha!

Why become a maven

1. You get three full sized products
2. A little surprise in every box
3. save 20% on everything in there online store
4. plus free shipping on every order

I was excited about my box and decided to order a few add ons and I also placed a separate order for a color I wanted just because well it was a birthday present and they sent me another coupon. LOL!


The group on the right is from my Maven intro box. The group on the left are my add ons.
I fell in love with America! It is glitter polish, red, blue, silver and little starts. I can't wait to get this polish on my nail! Now where is my remover! 

I already have a bunch more stuff on my wish list and I'm excited about my next Maven box! 

 I know someone will ask but Nail polish featured in this post are as follows 
1. Alaina
2. America
3. Dianna
4. Helen
5. Claudette

Okay so do you want to try it and get a free into box too. All you have to do is pay shipping and I think that was $3.99. Great price for all you get!
