While waiting for my
Tog+Porter box to arrive, I did some Google searches to find out what other clients received. I found many great posts with one or two photos of cute items...making me so incredibly excited I just couldn't wait! In my searches I found
StitchFix This styling service charges $20 and sends you a box of items in your size. This service appears to be monthly but there isn't a recurring charge--you just "get my Fix" by requesting a box. You are out your $20 but it is applied as credit toward the purchase of the items you were sent. They also give you 25% off if you buy all 5 items. This can work out to be an awesome deal if you like your items!
When I first signed up I was put on a waiting list. This didn't last too long, maybe a day or two, and then I got my "invite". I completed a brief survey of what I was looking for- complete with comparison photos of different looks to like or dislike. Then my box was shipped! Super fast...mostly automated.
My first box was full of....strange pieces. I tried them on, took some bad photos with my phone and sent it all back. I emailed my stylist to ask some questions before sending the box back. There was one dress that I really liked but I wasn't sure if I needed a smaller size or if the cut was supposed to look the way that it did. I have yet to receive a response...so I mailed my items back in a prepaid labeled pouch.
I requested my second box and just received it. I had my husband take photos...for fun. There was not a single piece in this box that I would even walk out of the house in. I am totally not confident in StitchFix's interest in actually matching me with the right look. I'm a little addicted so I am going to try ONE more time. I really want it to work out. I have seen many videos/blogs of women who get pieces that I would wear. This box...was comical. Feel free to have a laugh at me in my "fetish jumper" as my husband calls it. And yes, I realize you can see my bra through the shirt...oops.
Be sure to tell me what you think! For your entertainment...
Outfit One: Fluxus Zora Scoop Jersey Sleeveless top $60, Frenzii Leonie Jersey short skirt $44. The fabrics were nice...very soft. The shirt was cut funny for me and the skirt was just too short and reminded me of wearing an over-sized men's shirt. Not my style but this was the best out of the box for me.

Outfit Two: Same skirt as above (I have nothing in my closet to go with this rowdy piece). Um..wow. That is pretty ugly. I'm not sure I am cool enough to pull it off. Aryn K Della Cutout Back Tribal Tank $55.
