When you are ready, you can set up your first fix date and also your fix frequency. I have mine set to On-Demand. When I first signed up, I was getting fixes monthly. Knowing I was buying a house, I became more conservative with my money and cut down on all monthly expenses. You’ll be able to choose from every 2-3 weeks, every month, every other month or every 3 months. If you know you have a fix coming up and need to change or cancel the date, Stitch Fix has you covered! Just log into your account and update your fix date.

Get excited when your fix arrives at your doorstep! Try everything on in the comfort and convenience of your own home. Keep what you love and send back what you don’t in the pre-paid postage bag. The great part of Stitch Fix is how they credit you the $20 styling fee as long as you purchase at least one item. If you love it all, you get the $20 credit and a buy 5 discount towards your order!

At the checkout, be sure to leave specific and meaningful feedback to make your next fix even better! To help Nicole pinpoint my style and tastes, I created a Pinterest board and linked it to my Stitch Fix profile. I update it regularly with new textures, tones and pieces that appeal to me.

Let’s see what Nicole pulled for me this time!

Q&A BRADLEY BELL SLEEVE KNIT TOP

After pinning a bunch of new ideas to my Pinterest board, I saw bell sleeved tops galore. Nicole sent me a maroon with black polka dotted bell sleeve top to try. To be honest, I haven’t yet reached for Q&A Bradley Bell Sleeve Knit top, but I can probably pull it off for a future date night. The fit was flattering, as was the color on me.

MARGARET M KARRI TEXTURED KNIT DRESS

I vaguely recall asking for Nicole to send me a skirt or dress that would be appropriate for work. She delivered with the Margaret M Karri Textured Knit dress. I love the pattern and texture of the dress. It was smooth to the touch with a slight sheen. Although it might have hugged my curves a little more than I would have liked in some areas, I decided that it would be a good dress for things like Open House night, a formal night out on the town or a holiday party or wedding. I paired the dress with my black and grey Tahari Palace Wedges from Fix #5.

EMORY PARK DULCE KNIT TOP

I was a bit miffed when I pulled out the Emory Park Dulce Knit top, but also slightly intrigued by its simplicity. It is a short sleeved black shirt with a criss-cross detail in the front of the neckline. The material was loose-fitting and light. I can use this top for a dressed down day around the house or for work with the right accessories and accents.

KARL LAGERFELD EMMALYN TWEED COLLARLESS BLAZER

I’ve secretly been wishing for a blazer. Maybe my newer pins sent the message to Nicole to find a blazer to pair with the Margaret M Karri Textured Knit Dress she selected for me. The Karl Lagerfeld Emmalyn Tweed Collarless blazer was definitely unique and edgy. The blazer is black with gold accents in the zippers. The texture of the blazer gives it an edgy vibe. When I paired it with the Margaret M dress, I thought it might make the dress look more formal than it already was. Much to my surprise, the blazer seemed to have toned down the dress.

KUT FROM THE KLOTH DAYNA SKINNY JEAN

I originally thought, “Oh, boy! Another pair of jeans….” And along with that thought, I remember thinking I might not keep these, as I already have enough jeans to last me for two weeks straight. When I slipped these denim skinnies on, I may have had a change of heart. The Kut from the Kloth Dayna Skinny Jeans fit like a glove.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again…for a girl who has never seen me in person nor does she have my exact measurements….Nicole seems to nail my size in jeans every time without fail. Right length. Perfect fit. No gapping in the back. No baggy spots in the front.

Let’s recap!

• Q&A Bradley Bell Sleeve Knit top…$54.00 (KEEP)
• Margaret M Karri Textured Knit dress…$98.00 (KEEP)
• Emory Park Dulce Knit top…$28.00 (KEEP)
• The Karl Lagerfeld Emmalyn Tweed Collarless blazer…$128.00 (KEEP)
• Kut from the Kloth Dayna Skinny Jeans…$88.00 (KEEP)

Because I kept my whole fix, I was credited my $20 styling fee. I also received my buy 5 discount and saved $99. Basically, I got the Margaret M dress free.

This fix was definitely on the more expensive side. However, the blazer and dress were too great to pass up. Now I just have to find an occasion to wear them! I believe the Emory Park top was one of the least expensive items that Nicole has ever sent me.

For my next fix, I requested different shoes. I am on the search of beige/nude and black flats as well as a pair of black booties. I also told Nicole to surprise me with a few winter staples or holiday pieces to “fa-la-la-la” in this Christmas.
