I've just signed up for my first box, has anyone done it before?

I'm very much a plain Jane of black, white and denim.

Not sure what I'm hoping for - a fashion miracle?!

@CharlotteS0metimes that all sounds really good. Pleased for you!! I love those supergas btw. I just bought a pair of new balance reduced from 100 to 36 can't decide if I actually like them but I like the spots (ill attach a pic) but means if I get the supergas I'll want to keep them too!!

I'm excited for my box today now. If you want to post your outfit cards for a nosy please do.

Stupid chubby apple shape LOL. If it helps I'm 5 foot 3 with the longest body known to woman. To the point I need to order my swimsuits from long tall Sally Grin... Ahh our bodies ha

@kleew1 I'd like those trainers more without all the detailing all over them. They'd fall into my 'too fussy' category I think?

I'll post some pics later on so you can have a nosy at what I got. Do share yours too!

I got my box today! There's plain super gas which I won't keep as I had the exact ones about 2 years ago and they are still burst in my cupboard.

A flowery dress I'd never wear but like on and a top that's v me and trousers again I'd never choose but are probably quite me.

A pink jumper that is not for me! Also cheaper than expected.

ouch321 · 01/08/2020 10:37

What are the price brackets/points you choose from?

Could not find that info on website.

kleew1 · 01/08/2020 10:37

I'm wearing the trousers and white warehouse top together tho! Returning the pink jumper.

Had my first one last week and loved everything bar one dress. I am a stripey tops and linen lady (definitely getting old) and they got me down to a T. Really happy.

I had my first box two weeks ago and loved it so much I brought forward my second box. I kept three out of the five items and have worn all three already. I'm obsessed with clicking on the app and giving a thumbs up or down to their suggestions!

OOps. need to report this and get it removed!

LostInAForest · 01/08/2020 11:16

@ouch321 it's there somewhere! As you work through the questions it asks you how much you'd be willing to pay for tops, jeans, bags etc

I don't want bags or coats sending and o went sort of mid Ish price - I'll pay up to £60 for jeans, £40-50 for a top etc

I’ve had a few boxes but only kept a couple of things. My last box was just awful. I returned the lot. Didn’t try any on because they didn’t listen. I think they just chucked stuff in and hoped for the best.

I said no jeans. I got a black pair.

I asked for a maxi dress. They sent a play suit. I am 50.

For every box and in my profile I said no items without sleeves. They sent two tops with me sleeves.

I said no jewellery. I got a naff necklace.

Delivery is good and returns are easy. Stick fix returns a bit easier than lookerio but that’s due to where we live.

kleew1 · 01/08/2020 11:45

@Cakestandkitchen that is rubbish!!

I'm not sure how much they listened to me but I am pleasantly surprised.

@ouch321 I think it's when you are actually ordering your box it gives you the option - I chose the cheapest bracket for all.

My total box was 160 if all purchased.

@Lepetitpiggy not sure what was posted?!

If anyone else wants to share what they got please do!!

Also made me realise I need to lose a few lockdown pounds. Easy to ignore when you are wearing the same old same old...

This was my card. The blue dress and orange shoes were perfect. The jeans were too. I didnt think the cream jumper was worth the money.

Heartofstrings · 06/08/2020 12:03

I keep meaning to post my cards!! I WILL do it today. 2 amazing boxes, 1 less so

kleew1 · 28/08/2020 15:21

Got my 2nd box.. Truly awful! Disappointed.

I had my first fix recently and I am having another one for autumn.

Downsides: Sadly I wasn’t one of the lucky ones and the stylist absolutely missed the mark. It is as if I went shopping blind and picked out random pieces from the high-street shops. My ten year old niece would have done a better job than the so called professional stylist. The pieces were clumsy and of poor quality and didn’t work together at all. I kept a pair of French connection jeans nonetheless as i needed a pair of jeans but I had to exchange for one with proper stitching.

Upsides: love the business idea and design. Little cards with outfit ideas was fab. Beautifully presented. Quick and easy app. Delivery and return were hassle free.

So, I decided to give it a other shot. I requested to change a stylist and I am giving it another go. But if the pieces are as disappointing as last time I will never bother again.

Hopefully they will hire some actual talent as stylists in the future.
