My last two boxes weren't great. Not even worth sharing - but this time they have come up trumps so thought I would share.

Here's a £25 discount code (48 hours) for anyone interested

  • *[edited by MNHQ] **

I had chosen three things from my preview:

Black dress
Jumpsuit
Oversized Cobalt Cardi.

I can only see how to attach three photos so these are attached. They were all fantastic. The cardi is the most gorgeous colour, although quite oversized, which I really like.

I cannot believe how flattering the jumpsuit is. I should probably add I am mid fifties and thought maybe I was kidding myself, but it is a lovely fit. The V neck makes my gigantic norks look almost normal, and it gives the impression of a waist which I really do not have

The black dress is a good quality that hangs nice and heavy if that makes sense? I sometimes struggle with dresses like this that are belted, because of aforementioned large chest, which means belt loops are way too high, but no problem with this. Will look great with tights and boots.

The two additional items were a pair of the legendary Mauvette jeans. These ones were straight, and a nice dark indigo. What's not to like?

The final item was the Lilian batwing jumper which I already had in sky blue, but this time it's in burgundy. It's a thin enough knit to feel appropriate for business meetings but still cosy.

A return to form for me - I was thinking of not bothering any more, but this box has restored my faith Xmas Grin

Well i ended up keeping a fab floral dress and only had to pay £5! A couple of you lovely ladies signed up (please let me see what your options are when they come!) so we both got credit!

I've got another like but this time its £25 each if anyone else is interested. Ive become a bit obsessed with it, cant wait for my next box which is 3 weeks away!!!

If any of you do it regular, it would be good to use the thread to see what different options and styles people get - i would love to know if all the quizzes that you fill in make a difference. I put a note to my stylist that i liked pink - everything in my preview was pink! Slight overkil, but i gave that feedback and it ended up not being the case with what was in the box, it was a great mix.

They also sent me a bag that i loved but was overpriced - found it on the Brands website with 50% off! Id never have come across it just in my usual internet searches.... so delighted with that too.

That all looks really nice op! I have to admit I was expecting to come on the thread to find you hated everything which was my SF experience. Glad to find the opposite (although I did enjoy some of the super awful boxes too for comedy value Wink)

I got my box yesterday. I kept 2 tops, but the other bits were pretty meh. I forgot to keep the details for this thread, but one of the items was a hideous skirt of cheap nylon fabric, far too long, with gathering on the stomach. It might have looked better on someone tall and thin, but unfortunately I am neither.
The two tops were lovely though, and I will see what the next one brings in April.

Hey @IsolaPribby if you go into your Stitchfix account you can see what you were sent and what you kept (I think!) would love to see what your tops are like!!

I too have the jumpsuit but mine is a blue print, it is amazingly flattering, I've never worn a jumpsuit before and didn't think it would be me but its so comfy and looks great.

However they did send me an eye wateringly expensive pair of jeans, after I specifically asked for some wide leg/boot cut. Totally out of my price range and they didn't feel like great quality either. Bit disappointed about that.

Also a French Connection jumper that was the most amazing fit but hideous colour, I went on the FC website to see if it came in black and found all the colour options equally dreadful :P but its also on sale there for 25 quid less than stichfix would have charged me.

IsolaPribby · 25/01/2022 21:21

This is a screenshot of my bits, can you see it well enough?

Oh yeah, they’re all nice. Nice colour pallet. I’ve only had editors cut out of those brands x
Natzedd · 16/02/2022 00:28

I’ve just had my third stitch fix box dispatched and I have to say I’m a little disappointed with what is coming this time 😢 how are you all getting on?

bunanarama · 16/02/2022 18:42

My last two boxes have been very boring, I keep feeding back that I don’t want to get sent jeans and had 4 pairs in my preview this time. Hearing of other people getting boden stuff I’m wondering whether to give them one more chance and bump my price bracket. Or to cancel.

bunanarama · 16/02/2022 18:45

My favourite thing they’ve sent me is a jumper from sugar hill Brighton but now they keep putting very similar ones in my fixes for more than they cost on the sugar hill website

BadSpellaSpellaSpella · 16/02/2022 19:20

If you send them a screen shot from the sugarhill Brighton site they will match the price (I did this in December when a cardigan they sent was in the sale on the site)

@bunanarama the only item I liked in my box this time was a sugar hill jumper, and even then I’m not sure I love it that much for £55. They’ve sent me a cropped jumpsuit with various necklines, sleeve lengths and patterns in all of my boxes so far even though I’ve said in the first one I don’t want a cropped length jumpsuit!

@BadSpellaSpellaSpella wish I’d known this, I had a bag in my last box that I quite liked, but found it half price on the designers website!
Natzedd · 22/02/2022 12:05

All mine went back this month, didn’t feel like they took on board my feedback.

I’ll give them another chance then I might reconsider. I’ve had 2 lovely outfits so far.

They’ve given me another link with £25 for anyone who wants to try it! Valid for 48 hours 🙂

Kept a skirt this month which was lovely. Is anyone else still persevering?

  • *[edited by MNHQ] **
Dellabob123 · 23/03/2022 08:09

I’ve had a few in the past, fairly successful. Decided to try another one after a break and wow, it was amazing. I could have kept all five items but I didn’t need another pair of jeans and Although the floral blouse was lovely, it just felt like it wasn’t me. Fab French connection jumper that I’ve not taken off since receiving it. They included an amazing all saints dress/jumper combo which I would never have chosen in a million years. It’s pricey but beautiful. I upped my budget and think that had something to do with it. Im back on board after this recent fix so will prob try again last next month.

BirdIsland · 23/03/2022 08:56

I've ordered my first box for next week, I'm stuck in a rut so hoping for some inspiration.

Hi all,
Lovely clothes! As you can see, though, we've zapped the referral codes because if we didn't, S&B would be overrun in a matter of days.
We're happy to let codes go on this board - fill your fancy boots on there!

BadSpellaSpellaSpella · 26/03/2022 08:08

I kept all my items this month, they put in a button down dress which normally don't suit me at all (my bust tends to be abit too big due this style) but surprisingly this one actually fit fine all over

StyleDesperation · 26/03/2022 09:04

I'm getting my first box today! Part of a general attempt to take more care of myself and my appearance. Fingers crossed for some good things!

StyleDesperation · 27/03/2022 10:59

I'm keeping all of mine. Really pleased at what they chose and looking forward to wearing, getting the next box, and looking for other things to buy to go with.

StyleDesperation · 27/03/2022 11:00

Here's what I got. Two tops, trousers, shirt dress and sandals.

BadSpellaSpellaSpella · 27/03/2022 11:10

That looks like some good spring bits there. It's funny how people boxes are so different, mine had completely different stuff

Dellabob123 · 27/03/2022 12:07

That does look like a great spring box - nice and coordinated. Where are the brown trousers from?

StyleDesperation · 27/03/2022 12:31

They're mauvette (which is I think is the stitch fix own brand?) They're khaki/olive but I'm terrible at taking photos! The only thing I lack is a full length mirror anywhere in the house so that is my next purchase. I was quite specific about myself and my wardrobe but I've never tried on 5 things that all fit perfectly. And I hate buying trousers as they always gape at the waist or pull on the pockets. These are literally perfect.
