My August Stitch Fix came early this month and I was excited to share it with you guys! If you haven’t read any of my other Stitch Fix posts, check them out to get a fuller idea of the pieces they send.
How Stitch Fix Works in 3 Easy Steps
If you’re new to Stitch Fix, here’s a brief overview of how it works.
- Pay $20 (a credit toward whatever you keep).
- They send you 5 pieces of clothing/accessories
- Try them on, return what you don’t want in three days in the pre-paid shipping envelope.
August Stitch Fix Review
Pixley Shelley Spaghetti Tank Dress ($78) Positive: It feels like a good quality dress. It’s lined, it fits me well. I like where it hits on my legs. It feels secure up top, the straps don’t slip down. I really like this dress. I like the pattern at the bottom. I like navy blue. Negatives: I really don’t like the cinched waist. I think it ends up doing the opposite of slenderizing. I’m not crazy about cinched waists. I wish so much that this had been a shift dress, I think I would have kept it otherwise.
41Hawthorn Sam Hi-Lo Short Sleeve Tee ($44) Positive: It’s so comfy. It’s a heathered gray, which is a little different than the other grays I own. The neckline and sleeves hang perfectly. I LOVE the hi-lo look. I love that I can dress this shirt up or wear it with jeans. Negatives: Joe doesn’t like that I own another gray shirt.
Mystree Samberg Smock Detailed Knit Shirt ($48) Positive: It matches a lot of things I have. It fits for the most part. Negatives: The material is thin. It’s a tad bit short. I don’t like the neckline. I’m not crazy about the smock look. It also makes me look pregnant. Imma go with no on this one.
Pixley Messi Lattice Neckline Knit Tank ($68) Positive: It is very interesting. I don’t own anything like this. I like the lattice work. The top part is like a chiffon material and the bodice is a cotton blend. I like the two different materials a lot. Negatives: It’s a lot like the shirt I got last month in my June fix. I don’t really need another black chiffony shirt. It doesn’t come quite as high as the other black shirt, but it’s still higher than I like on my collar bone.
Pixley Monty Scarf Print Kimono Cardigan ($58)Positive: I love the idea of a kimono. My sister got a super cute kimono (kind of like this one) that she look fabulous in, I’ve been wanting to copy her. I like the colors and the design. The length is good Negatives: I think it’s just not my style. I wanted it to work, but it just looks like I’m wearing my robe to lunch. Also I don’t like the wing sleeves, I feel like I could fly away in this thing.
Overall a lot of things I liked about these pieces and I really liked what my stylist picked out for my to try. I opted just to keep the hi-lo shirt this go around.
What do you think I should have kept?

I love Stitch Fix. I only wish they had it in Ireland. =( You have some great picks this month. I wish you would have kept the Pixley Messi Lattice Neckline Knit Tank. It looks great on you. 100% I think it’s fun too, to sometimes mix things up with something different that what you usually wear. Thanks for the post. =)

thanks Stacey! I wish they had it for you too! I know, I probably went back and forth on that one more than anything else – well also the dress. Thanks for the good feedback!:)

Good choice! Too bad they didn’t send you shoes. Looks like you could use some. 😉
