Stitch Fix #3

So this is my third time doing Stitch Fix, and I think it will be my last one for a while.  I honestly had really high hopes for this last one, but it just isn't fitting into our lifestyle right now.  And really, the biggest reason is money.  Even though I have requested the lowest price on clothes, I still get shirts that are anywhere between $50 and $70.  And that is just unfortunately, too much for me to spend on a sleeveless shirt.  And honestly that may be the reason that I haven't gotten a lot of things that I love- because I ask for things that are cheaper.  Needless to say- I LOVE the concept of this company and if it were cheaper, I definitely would continue, but for right now, it just doesn't fit the budget. 

So, here's my last fix ... for now :)  [Maybe I'll pick it up again at a later time :) ]

Jill Jersey Maxi Skirt- $48
Really, I love maxi skirts.  And this one was super soft, the perfect length, and fit me pretty well.  I didn't love the color, but that wasn't the reason I didn't get it.  I already have two maxi skirts, and didn't want to spend money on another one that was plain- now if it had stripes.. that may be a different story :)
Purchased? No



Jessika Linen Solid Swing Skirt- $68
This skirt actually fit well, and I did specifically ask for a couple skirts for this Fix.  However, it was pretty plain- so not something I really want to spend almost $70 on.
Purchased? No.



Daryn Floral Print Jersey Top- $68
For some reason all of the floral print shirts they send me I just don't love.  I love them on Pinterest, but not on me.  My favorite part about this shirt was the back- I loved how it dipped a little lower and I don't have any shirts like this, however the high price mixed with the not-so-great floral print led me to send this one back. 
Purchased? No.



Cecelia Abstract Print Ruffle Front Blouse- $64
The ruffle was cute.  The pattern was OK. And the fit was fairly good, just again, not worth the $64.
Purchased? No.



Jasmine Pleat Detail Floral Print Blouse- $64
I can tell how much I loved this shirt because I took one SUPER quick picture of me in it lol  The floral again didn't work and it was pretty boxy on me.  So, sigh, another no.
Purchased? No.


Like I said, I have not completely given up on Stitch Fix.  I could see myself maybe doing this again if I need a fun dress for a special occasion and asking them to send me five dresses or five blazers so I can see if there is something out of the Fix that I would pick, but other than that, the cost just doesn't work for us right now.  However, if you have done or want to do Stitch Fix don't get discouraged by my post - I have googled a lot of different bloggers who have gotten some super cute and more affordable things from Stitch Fix! It just hasn't worked out for me and I don't want to continue spending the money right now.  I'd love to hear if any of you have done it and if you have any tips for the next time I may try it again!
