I got my second Stitch Fix today! The first thing I did, like last time, was read the intro card that came with it. This one said that my stylist (Hanah this time) saw a lot of distressed denim on my Pinterest page, so she included a pair in my Fix. (I just took a look, and there are some pins on there with distressed demin - more than I realized, but I wouldn't have considered it to be "a lot." I really don't like distressed denim that much.) She also said that she knew I loved polka dots (yes!), so she included a top she thought I would love.
When I opened the box, I found 2 pairs of jeans and 3 tops. Both pairs of jeans, though, were skinny, which I really can't stand. I guess the odd pair must have snuck through on Pinterest to indicate that would be a good choice for me... ? For some reason my pictures this time are even worse than last time, so I apologize.
The first pair of jeans was Kensie Jeans "Sophia" Distressed Skinny Jean ($88). I don't have a full-length mirror, so the picture is here just to give you an idea of the wash:
Next up, another pair of Kensie Jeans, the "Johnny" Skinny Jeans ($88). Again, no full-length mirror:
Comfy again (slightly higher-waisted than the Sophia), but I just don't like skinny jeans. These also, with the dark uniform wash and hugging of my ankles, looked like leggings. No thanks.
Next, one of the three tops, Olive & Oak's "Tanya" Tank ($44):
This was a really comfortable knit and I liked the stripes. The problem, though, was the fit. The top was really loose, and if I didn't keep adjusting it, you could see half my bra under my arm on either side. It also hung down awkwardly in the back if I had the neckline adjusted nicely in front. Sending it back.
Next up was Pomelo's "Blake" Ruched Shirt ($48):
I had high hopes for this based on the description. "Side ruched v-neck knit shirt" I love the idea of ruching - intentional bunching - since most of my shirts end up doing that anyway. And Pomelo made the blue polka dot shirt I loved so much last month! But the fabric on this one was all wrong. It was a thin black knit, just sheer enough to look like you should wear something underneath to get rid of the shiny impression - not sheer in an intentional kind of way. And the thin fabric emphasized the lumps and bumps that the ruching was working to hide. The slightly rounded v-neck combined with the rounded shoulder seams wasn't flattering either. Sending it back.
The last top was the one the stylist mentioned in her note, Kut From The Kloth's "Prescott" shirt ($58):
Love this! I won't be able to wear it until it cools down, but it is so very me! I love the mix of stripes and polka dots, the feminine neckline, and the cozy fabric. Definitely keeping this one!
All in all, I'm happy with Stitch Fix still! I got another shirt I love, and I didn't have to set foot in an store. If you are interested in trying it out (you pay $20 for each box as a styling fee, but it goes toward your purchase of anything in the box), here's my referral link!
