Stitch Fix Winter Faves

This post is sponsored by Stitch Fix. Right now, they’re waiving the styling fee for all of my readers! If you’ve been wanting to try it, this would be a perfect time to check it out.

Almost any time I receive a compliment on my clothes (you know, when I’m not wearing workout attire and sweaty from the gym), there’s a 90% chance it came from Stitch Fix. I remember when Liv was a baby and I felt like there was no way I’d go clothes shopping again in the near future. The thought of lugging my tiny baby to the mall with a stroller and giant diaper bag to try on clothes while she cried was enough to convince me that it wasn’t worth it.

I heard about Stitch Fix and was instantly intrigued. When I found out I could try on everything at home and easily send back the things I didn’t want to keep, I was sold. That was 5 years ago! I’ve loved Stitch Fix since the very beginning, and it’s been so incredible to see how the company has grown and evolved since then. (Back in the day, they had stickers on the boxes instead of branded packaging and would send a little surprise in the package like a set of post-its, pen, or cute eraser.) My fixes have continued to get better and better over time and as I’ve sent in feedback. So many boxes are home runs now and I want to keep all.the.things.

Times when Stitch Fix has come to the rescue:

-Finding my style as a new mama, when I was back in non-maternity clothes. When Liv was born, I was kind of stumped on how to dress myself. None of my old clothes felt or fit quite right, and I was in that weird in-between phase when clothes at the mall felt too young or mature for my preferences. I wanted to find outfits that would work for my life as a mama: functional for breastfeeding and crawling around on the floor, but cute enough to venture into public or meet a friend for lunch.

(Blast from the past from my very first fix!)

-Dressing for my second pregnancy with P! This was when Stitch Fix had just introduced a maternity line. Stitch Fix sent so many awesome high-quality pieces that became my pregnancy go-tos. It felt nice to wear clothes that fit me, instead of stretching out all of my athletic wear.

-Life with two small kiddos: finding functional pieces I can wear while chasing two little active ladies around but wanting to still look presentable.

-Clothes for vacations, special occasions and date nights. This has been especially helpful now that we live in an area without a variety of great shopping. I can order online, but my stylist at Stitch Fix already knows the types of pieces I like to wear, and they almost always fit perfectly.

-Trying something new and a little out of my comfort zone. Thanks to Stitch Fix, I’ve tried a lot of new styles that I might not have originally picked or tried. They got me on the high-waist jean bandwagon,

sent some gorgeous velvet pieces for winter,

and recently sent this Trina Turk burgundy jumpsuit.

It’s not something I would have ever tried (ever!) and it’s now one of my fave date night pieces in my closet.

Stitch Fix review + try your first box risk-free

Here’s a little bit about Stitch Fix if you’re new to the company:

-Stitch Fix is a personal styling service. They can sizes 0-24W and XS-3X, maternity and petite, and men’s sizes XS-XXL. (The Pilot loves Stitch Fix for men! He hates shopping but enjoys wearing nice clothes, so it’s the best of both worlds.)

-When you sign up for Stitch Fix, you fill out an extensive style questionnaire with all of your sizes, likes and dislikes. Before you receive a fix, you can send a note to your stylist with specific requests, links, or to let them know if you have a special event or vacation coming up. You can also specify price ranges that work for you and suggest brands that you love.

-A stylist curates 5 items to suit your preferences, and everything arrives on your doorstep.

-With your fix, you’ll receive style cards on how to wear each item with things you may already have in your closet.

-You try on the items at home, pay for what you want to keep, and send back the rest in a prepaid envelope. 

-If you keep all 5 items, you get a 25% discount on your entire purchase!

When you receive your Stitch Fix box, you’re charged a styling fee of $20 that you can use towards any purchase. If you don’t make a purchase, you lose that $20, which can be a barrier to trying it out. (I can totally see why you may not want to lose $20 if you don’t like it!)

Good news: my friends at Stitch Fix are kindly waiving the $20 styling fee, so you can try out a fix completely risk-free. Sign up here! 

So tell me, friends: how has your style changed over the years? What’s one of the trends you’ve jumped on that you’re glad you tried? For me this year it was definitely high-waist jeans and mules.

Have a great day and I’ll see you tonight with your next WSU workouts!

    I’ve recommit ed myself to stitch fix too. Nothing I was ordering online was fitting right, and normal returns are a pain. While it’s more expensive than I would do otherwise, I just don’t have the time anymore to hunt down clothes that I love. It’s great for new mamas if we have the money for it.

    The burgundy jumpsuit is gorgeous and you also look super fantastic wearing the lace trimmed dress!

    I love that lace trimmed dress! Some of my favorite outfits have come from Stitch Fix.

    Everytime I hear about Stitch Fix, I am equally sad that it’s not in Canada. I hate shopping and would absolutely utilize a service like this. Hopefully they’ll expand soon!

    You got way cuter stuff than I did in my box that’s for DAMN sure ! ha ha

    I wish Stitch Fix would ship to Canada. There’s a similar service here that I tried, but it doesn’t have brand names and some of the pieces have been the most bizarre things that I’ve seen recycled through customers. It just didn’t live up to my expectation after learning about Stitch Fix from you.

    I started using Stitch Fix a few years ago for about a year. I expected it to take a few fixes before my stylist “got me”. She never did, or should I say, they never did. I attribute my bad experience to the fact that I never had the same stylist more than once. My last straw was that I continued to get the same button up long-sleeved shirt, just in a different color, 3 months in a row. The quality of the clothing was lacking, and I’d never heard of the majority of the brands.

    I just started with a competitor to Stitch Fix and was impressed with the communication back and forth with my stylist. My first set of clothing and shoes were spot on.

    I wanted to like Stitch Fix, but got the impression that since I didn’t have a blog audience, I wasn’t important.

    I don’t mean to belittle your experience, but think my experience shows another experience.

    That purple suit is amazing on you! Rock it girl.

    I’ve been doing stitch fix for a year now. Some things I love, some things not so much. You really have to be specific with them.
