May 2016 Stitch Fix Review (Fix #35)

How quickly a month goes by!  It seems like I just shared my April Stitch Fix box and now it’s time to share what I received for May.

This month I requested a dress, casual tops for summer, and a skirt with a shirt to match.  My stylist, Brittany H., does a great job of picking out things for me that I almost always like and this month was no exception.  After 35 fixes, Brittany gets my style and seems to know what I will like.

Let’s take a look at what my May 2016 Stitch Fix box contained!

 

Collective Concepts Atalya Cold Shoulder Top

I pinned a few cold shoulder tops to my fashion board on Pinterest, so Brittany sent one my way to try.  I loved the pattern, color, and fabric of this top.  I also loved that it looks trendy without showing too much skin.

My shorts are from Walmart and cost just $7.88.  Can you believe that?  I’m pretty hard on shorts, especially white ones, so it’s smart for me to buy an inexpensive pair so that I’m not too disappointed when I finally stain them permanently.

Even though this top is super cute, I decided not to keep it.

 

London Times Bryen Jersey V-neck Dress

This dress is super soft and comfortable and would be perfect for work.  The fabric is the type that could be balled up in a gym bag or suitcase and wouldn’t wrinkle.

I loved the neckline of this dress and its floral pattern.  May 2016 Stitch Fix Review - London Times Bryen Jersey V-neck Dress with Sherman Skulina

I decided not to keep it because I wasn’t crazy about the vertical stripe on the skirt part of the dress.

 

Gill Rinna Dress

I pinned a picture of this dress because I loved the polka-dots.  It is super soft and comfortable and the cut is flattering.  I like that it could easily be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

The back has a surprise:  a cut-out!

Although I loved this dress, I didn’t keep it because the cut-out meant it wouldn’t be work appropriate.

 

Collective Concepts Coryn Peplum Blouse and Pixley Eve Floral Skirt

I requested a skirt with a shirt to match. Brittany spotted this Pixley Eve Floral Skirt on my Pinterest board and thought that I would like it.  The skirt is fully lined and is longer than any skirt that I’ve owned for a long while.  I love its floral pattern and the color options that I have for pairing tops with it.

Brittany paired the Coryn Peplum Blouse with the skirt and the two match perfectly.  This is a top that is dressy enough for work but could also be dressed down and worn with shorts.

As soon as I put the skirt on, I knew that I was keeping it.  It’s comfortable and perfect for work.  I like the Coryn Peplum that Brittany paired with it but didn’t keep it because a 41Hawthorn top from my very first fix matched this skirt perfectly.

If you’ve thought about trying Stitch Fix, do it!  I love getting my monthly fix.  Even after 35 fixes, I still love the surprise of opening my box each month.  I choose to get a monthly box, but how often a box is shipped your way is totally up to you.  It’s wonderful to have clothes delivered that I like and don’t have to go to the store to buy.

  1. Yay! My favorite posts! As I always say….you get the BEST dresses. I loved the cut out on the polka dot dress but I get it – if it’s not work appropriate it’s probably not worth it! I definitely agree that the skirt was the best – and I actually like it more with the top you already had. I think the form fitting looks best with it. Yay for another great fix!

  2. I pinned the polka dot dress. It is so cute! I also have the floral skirt and love how I can pair many different colored blouses with it.
