December 2014 Stitch Fix Review | What I Got & What I Kept & Link-Up!

December 8, 2014·

I’m baaaaaaack for my 10th Stitch Fix review. Yes, I am still in love with Stitch Fix. Yes, I am still obsessed. It is SO MUCH FUN. My stylist was Kimberly again… I think she’s styled my last four or five fixes.

As usual, I share pictures of the items I got, sizing, pricing, and what I thought of it, etc. and whether or not I kept it. I take these pics in my backyard because I want to give you a “first impression” of each item as I try it on.

Uttam “Tobie Folklore Scarf Dress” – Size XL – $98

Uttam Tobie Folklore Scarf Dress | Stitch Fix

I was so excited to see this dress in my fix. I pinned it to my Pinterest board and so I was PUMPED that Kimberly (my stylist) included it for me this month. I was surprised when I got it out of the box at the material… for some reason I thought it was going to be a linen or a cotton material, but it’s actually like a silk / stain material. It’s really flowy. AND IT HAS POCKETS.

It really is a beautiful dress… it’s so beautiful.

But once I put it on, I just didn’t… love it. I loved it from the waist down, the dress hits at a great part and the pockets are awesome… but I didn’t love the sleeves and the top was just a little too “blousy” and I felt like it made me look way bigger up top. While I think it probably would have been okay, I just couldn’t justify keeping it if I didn’t totally love it.

I am probably going to SERIOUSLY regret sending this dress back… but I did…

VERDICT: Return

41Hawthorn “Gideon Polka Dot Sweater” – Size XL – $6841Hawthorn Gideon Polka Dot Sweater | Stitch Fix

Sure, something basic like a polka dot sweater seems like a no brainer, but it’s not something I would normally pick out for myself. This sweater is SUPER soft and really warm and thick. I also think it’s reversible!

Although, it’s just not really a sweater I think I’d wear all that much… so… I didn’t keep it.

VERDICT: Return

Kut from the Kloth “Cinda Faux Leather Moto Jacket” – Size XL – $98Kut from the Kloth Cinda Faux Leather Moto Jacket

I WANT TO SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!! I LOVE THIS JACKET!! Oh my gracious. It’s amazing. It’s warm. It’s thick. The moto style is exactly my style. The material is really high quality and you can’t even tell that it’s faux leather. It also has a really pretty inner silk lining that has a floral print.

It’s everything I ever dreamed of in a moto jacket.

Yes, $98 is pricey for a jacket, but honestly… I think it’s a GREAT price for a jacket like this that is well made and will totally last me for a long time.

VERDICT: Keep

Skies are Blue “Nikkita Chevron Textured Blouse” – Size XL – $68Skies are Blue Nikkita Chevron Textured BlouseOut of the box, this blouse was just “eh” for me. And when I put it on, it was still just “eh.” The sleeves were way too long. It is a comfortable blouse, but just not a “wow” piece (at least for me). 

The back of the blouse is sheer and I don’t love sheer tops (at least on me).

VERDICT: Return

Liverpool “Shania Stitched Detail Jean” – Size 14 – $78Liverpool Shania Stitched Detail Jean | Stitch Fix

I didn’t get a great picture of these jeans because, honestly, they were a little hard to photograph. The detailing of the pants is really cool… it goes down the side seam of the pants and all along the top. While I loved the pants, in theory, I didn’t love two things about them:

  • they collect lint / hair like CRAZY (as you can see in the picture)…
  • they were just a littttttttle too tight around my waist and they were just a littttttttle too uncomfortable

I thought the price was right on them, but because of the two cons listed above, they just weren’t worth keeping…

VERDICT: Return

Overall this fix was…

So much fun as usual! Yes, I only kept one item, but it wasn’t because I didn’t LOVE the fix… every item I didn’t keep just had one reason or another that I didn’t want to keep it. If that makes sense…

I have loved my stylist, Kimberly, and she really seems like she’s totally got my style!
