Stitchfix #5 - Is The Stitch Fixed!?

Thursday, June 12, 2014

Well ladies and gents, I caved. After my last Stitchfix, I emailed customer service summarizing my complaints and letting them know I was canceling. They responded by offering a credit to try again. So I figured why not give it a last ditch whirl. 

Haley delivered. She seriously nailed it. Integrated every request I had with thoughtful comments about how each item addressed previous issues I had mentioned. This was as close as I've come to keeping everything and still haven't pulled the trigger on returning things. As of now, I plan to hold on to the two tops and return the dress, necklace and pants. Not without a lot of hemming and hawing though.

The box arrived Tuesday night and I got home late because of a work event, but dove right in. I immediately fell in love with this Madeleina Embroidery Detailed Tank by Renee C. Don't tell me it's hideous because I wore it to work on Wednesday! 

Next up was this coral Twist Front Dress by Under Skies. Dresses are really hard especially with this latest "fit and flare" craze. This dress really worked. Like actually flattering. Super comfy and at $58, a pretty great deal for a versatile summer item. However, the body in it didn't really work/doesn't work out and pays for it with a pot belly. I was uncomfortable because of that. I can't imagine wearing spanx to work on a hot summer day or running around holding my breath and sucking it in for an entire day. I think I have to send it back. Sigh.

I really, really love the Tazo Mixed Print Floral Tank by Pomelo! It fits perfectly and has colors I normally wouldn't pick. The Bella Boutique Macy Delicate Crystal Tassel Pendant Necklace (seriously, does its name need so many words?!) was nice, but I have similar items and wasn't sure I wanted to invest in another. And these pants! I've been looking for a pair like this. Nice cropped length, basic grey. They were pretty flattering and comfortable but the waist was kind of flappy and I feared that given their material, they might stretch a lot. Plus, they were $108, a bit much for such a casual pant.

I'm so pumped with this latest delivery. Do I re-enlist?!
