I enjoy shopping so while I've always been curious about Stitch Fix, I didn't think it would be for me because it would take away from something I like to do. Still, I do like the element of surprise of what you get in your box so I thought I'd give it a try!

If your not familiar with Stitch Fix, it's a personal shopping service that shops for you delivers five pieces of either clothing or accessories to your door. You can schedule your deliveries monthly or whenever you choose. The charge for the monthly styling fee is $20. If you decide not to keep anything, you send it back in a prepaid envelope and are charged the styling fee. If you keep one or more pieces, the $20 styling fee is credited towards your purchase and if you purchase all five pieces, you receive a 25% discount.You can check out Stitch Fix yourself by clicking my referral link here.

Here's what I got in my first Stitch Fix box:

#1 Jes Keyhole Blouse $48

#2 Mavi Freida Skinny Jeans $98





First up is this blue and white print top from Fun2Fun. I loved the keyhole front and cut out detail in the back. It's the perfect everyday top you can dress up for work or down with jeans. While I liked it, it didn't wow me. Verdict: Returned.

Next up are these Mavi skinny jeans. They fit like a glove, are the perfect length and have a stretch to them so it almost feels like you are wearing leggings. I didn't have any dark wash jeans so these were a keeper. Verdict: Kept.

#3 Twila Faux Shearling Jacket $74



My first impression was this is a keeper. The sleeves and back are knit and the front faux suede lined with fleece. It's super soft and drapes nicely and can be worn with a top and jeans or over a dress with boots. With spring right around the corner, I didn't think I would get much use out of it until next fall. Verdict: Returned.

#4 Myah Cowl Neck Pullover $68

#5 Mckay Fringe Detail Tote $64

This cobalt blue sweater was gorgeous and cozy. I don't have many cowl or turtleneck sweaters, but again, with the weather warming up, I wanted to invest my dollars on spring ware. Verdict: Returned.

The Mckay fringe detail tote was the perfect size and it came with a zippered pouch. I have so many totes, it didn't make sense to add another to my collection. Status: Returned.

There you have it, my first Stitch Fix box revealed! It's still cold here so it was packed with winter items but I would have preferred to get pieces for spring. With that said, I love the idea of having a personal stylist pick things for me and I did like the element of surprise when I got it in the mail. While it isn't something I would do monthly, I think it would be fun to schedule a fix every few months! If you want to give Stitch Fix a try, click here to sign up!
