My April stitch fix arrived yesterday, and while I loved the concepts of the items I only ended up keeping two things this month. I had decided ahead of time that I was only keeping an item if I loved it since my closet is getting a bit crowded, so a few of the items went back this time because they really didn’t work.
Here’s what I got.
Fate – Elyse Striped Sheer Sleeveless Top $58
I really like the colors of this blouse, and it matches well with this lightweight cardigan I already had from Piperlime. It has a cute zipper in the back but you’ll probably never see it because it didn’t look good on its own. I decided to keep this piece because I love stripes and the color and think it will look good with jean jackets and cardigans.
Gilli – Nikky Striped Faux Wrap Jersey Dress $58
I love the color and pattern of this dress, and even the length was great. Unfortunately, the fabric was very sheer and you could see my underwear through it. For a $58 dress I’d like the material to be a little more substantial so this went back. I loved the colors though and hated to see it go.
Sweet Rain – Dennison Printed Short Sleeve Top $48
Loved the pattern and fabrics of this top, but the fit is very unflattering on me. The way it has the vents near the hips emphasizes my pear shape and I really didn’t like the effect. This one went back.
Daniel Rainn – Lander Watercolor Floral Print Blouse $68
The print on this blouse is beautiful and I really liked the drape. It had a vent in the back that looked really cute too. I had seen this blouse paired with mint jeans on the blog (which I actually happen to own) and was really excited to see it in my fix. Definite keeper although a bit pricey for a see through blouse.
Fate – Damsel Crochet Knit Open Cardigan $58
Big fat no on this one. It was long enough to be a lab coat, and I specifically said “no more open cardigans please!” several times. I don’t know why I just keep getting more cardigans. I already have more than enough and don’t particularly like the style. I really hope my next box does not have yet another cardigan.
Overall Impressions
I ended up keeping the blue floral pattern blouse and the orange stripe blouse and sent everything else back. I lost the discount since I didn’t keep all 5 items, but it wasn’t worth it to keep 3 items that weren’t flattering and I didn’t love. Even though I only kept 2 items I still really liked this fix and trying it all on was fun. If you’d like to learn more about Stitch Fix here is my referral link.
