Recap of 14 previous Stitch Fix boxes

I was surprised as I opened up my box of Stitch Fix to see at the top that my March 2015 box was Stitch Fix #15. Fifteen! I have had 75 items styled by the Stitch Fix stylists for me, like I’m a Hollywood C-lister.

I wanted to share some of the items I’ve kept from the 14 previous boxes to the March box (I covered the March box in a previous post). If you haven’t heard of Stitch Fix before, Stitch Fix is a monthly styling subscription service personalized for you.

You go online and they ask you questions, including showing you images of various outfits, to get an information on your size as well as your preferences in style. You can even put together a Pinterest board of outfit  inspirations, including from celebrities (I’m crushing on Grimm TV show character Juliette’s wardrobe) or stores. You can also let them know if you want a box to include certain fixes, such as pants, or if you have an event (like a bachelorette party or beach vacation trip) to style for. Then, based on all that, a stylist will pick out 5 pieces to ship to you that are mailed to your home for your consideration.

Stitch Fix #15 March 2015

There is a $20 styling fee that is applied to your order as soon as the box is shipped to your home. You can choose whether you want to exclude anything, or ask for certain things, what your price points on various parts of an outfit might be, if there are parts of your body you hide or that you flaunt, etc. They also have petite or maternity styling, if that applies to you.

You also get to choose how often you get your Stitch Fix boxes – monthly, quarterly, on demand… you make the call, down to picking even that date of your Stitch Fix (ha ha I pick it to be after my credit card statement closes for the month). You can keep everything (and get 25% off the price of the entire box) or send any pieces or even everything back in a postage paid package in the box based on what you think of the items in the box.

My boxes have been mixed – there have been a couple times I have kept everything. Other times I might only keep 1 thing, or even nothing (this has never happened to me, I always like at least one thing).

I always try everything on because I have been surprised that things I don’t think would work on me or that I would never pick up in a store actually end up looking surprisingly good once on me. And, I love getting unique pieces that no one else in my circle has, I’ve gotten so many compliments on Stitch Fix clothing from friends and strangers.

This Miilla Alani Draped Mixed Knit Cardigan is probably my favorite piece out of all the boxes. It’s perfect for layering all year long, and the cut of the cardigan is very feminine and flattering. It comes with a detachable long scarf too.

Another favorite is Subtle Luxury’s Madone Silk Back Cardigan that is the epitome of a perfect piece to wear to work or out in the evening. Whenever I walk when I’m wearing it, I can feel the softness of the cashmere-cotton blend and the fluttering of the 100% silk back like I’m a pretty peacock.

A few other cardigans from other Stitch Fix boxes. I didn’t realize it until Stitch Fix sent me this many just how much I love these really fluttery cut cardigans or the warm coziness of some of those thicker sweaters.

  • Roxanna Chevron Open Knit Cardigan by TCEC works in every season
  • Can’t recall, but love the fluttering movement of this fuschia cardigan/wrap from Qi, I just don’t know the name of the design with this shawl collar
  • Tulle Lawley Cable Knit Open Cardigan has a cheerful color on the grey days and super deep pockets on either side
  • Mystree Demi Mixed Material Cardigan is like a sweatshirt and huggable sweater in one
  • Sanctuary Rollins Striped Slub Knit Sweater is so comfortably cozy but warm and cute

Living in Portland where it might be 40 degrees F in the morning but close to 70 degrees F by 4-5 PM when I get out of work, layering is crucial. Stitch Fix has been helping me out with lots of lovely blouses so that even if I wear only boring black cardigans over them, I still look great.

It’s usually the little details that get me- a color that stands out, a cap sleeve or sleeve that rolls and buttons up, the mix of materials. I’m always looking for pieces that look like no one else’s.

  • Ezra Malena Embroidered Flutter Sleeve blouse
  • Ark N Co Siva Chiffon Rose Print Blouse is a chiffon blouse good to dress up or down
  • Daniel Rainn Tolley Mixed Print Crochet Detail Tie Neck Blouse is so interesting for spring and summer with its colors and materials
  • Blouse from a Stitch Fix box – I cut the tag off because it was itching my neck, so really can’t even look up who made it!

  • Daniel Rainn Bilson Pleat Detail Abstract Print Blouse can be long sleeved or buttened into the rolled up sleeve look
  • Under Skies Milan Lace Print Back Pleat Top came in the same Stitch Fix box as maroon jeans so was a whole outfit in 1 box
  • 41Hawthorn Moni Stud Detailed 3/4 Sleeve Blouse is a great mix of hard and soft. This is one of the few outfits I think there is a photo of me in… thanks to other people

  • Sanctuary Ronelle Chiffon Longsleeve Blouse is very sweet with the lace but the raw edges give it a bit more, a Stitch Fix box item that I was on the fence on but ultimately kept
  • The details of this Papermoon Rebecca Floral Print and Lace Blouse are lovely
  • Under Skies Caressa Tribal Embroidered Blouse is a way brighter color of red than I would think to wear, but I love the embroidery details

There are a few dresses in the mix too that just don’t look as good on the hanger as they do on the cards that come with every box, so I just scanned the cards that come with each item in the box. As you can see you always get 2 suggestions how to style each piece. There is also a personal style note with each box from the stylist with her own ideas and suggestions!

Also not photographed are 5 pairs of jeans and 2 pair of pants (a really cool brocade print black pant and faux leather detailed jogger black pant) I also got from my Stitch Fix boxes. I never ever ever would think to wear cranberry colored Jeans but Stitch Fix styled a box with those Jeans and the Papermoon Rebecca Floral Print and Lace Blouse and… I loved it! I’ve never worn anything but blue and black jeans but now I know I can wear colored pants too. Same with skinny jeans and the brocade pattern black pants and faux leather jogger black pants… Stitch Fix opened my mind to items I would have thought I could not pull off. 

I used to get jewelry and accessories, but have checked it off for now as I seem to be returning those more often than not.

  1. You’ve gotten some beautiful pieces! I’d like to try this service but I’m trying really hard to reduce expenses right now, not add to them – haha!

  2. Oh, my, Pech! I am honestly thinking more and more of trying Stitch Fix, thanks to you! I love everything you pictured here and the idea of trying things that I wouldn’t normally try on in the store. If or when I do sign up, I will gladly use your link. 🙂 Can’t wait to see what you get in April!

    • My next fix is actually in June (one of the things I love about Stitch Fix is that they are flexible about scheduling, so if you only want it once every 2 or 3 or 4 months based on your budget you can schedule or reschedule it accordingly – based on how much of my leisure budget I spend on dining out I have to balance it by cutting back on other luxuries like clothes)

  3. I’ve never heard about anything like this! Shows you how much I’m into fashion, or not 🙂 ! I will keep this in mind for the future. Thanks for sharing about it.
