The “rustic caramel” is super cute but ughhhh $44… if you love it then yes do it. The jeans look nice on your but yeah I would want the support. They have to be GREAT for $80. The crop top is cute but it’s basic I don’t think it’s worth the price. I don’t love the sweater on you, the stripes are kinda weird looking on the arms. The skirt is super cute but yeah $60… ugh. Maybe it will be on Poshmark in the winter and you can get it secondhand for next year.

It genuinely upsets me that you had a teacher who resorted to picking on you for wearing a dress. I remember feeling utterly betrayed when a favorite teacher of mine laughed when one of the kids who bullied me made a really humiliating joke about me and another boy in my class. I know they're only human, but they're also adults with a lot of influence and authority and I am so sorry that happened to you. Your teacher was so wrong to do that.

I am a teacher and I was saddened to hear about her experience. There are some teachers who sometimes seem to forget they aren’t supposed to be “the biggest kid in the classroom.” Some are trying to fit in with the bullies so they can “connect” with them. All are horribly misguided. Some teachers forget that all students DO learn, just not necessarily the lesson you are trying to teach.

Stitch Fix has been amazing for me this past year, I have lost 110lbs and have had absolutely no idea how to style myself. I'm finally able to wear clothes that I have wanted to wear for years. Also, I've been going down a size every month or two and it is so easy to adjust the sizing to accommodate that. There aren't many stores in my area, and even fewer of those were allowing you to try on clothes right now. My stylist has been absolutely amazing and seems like she knows me perfectly. She has never even seen a picture of me, but she KNOWS my style. It is crazy. I regularly do the style quizzes and it have even bought some of the pieces they suggest to complete outfits. I've gotten 6 boxes and have returned only a single item, everything else has fit beautifully and has been such amazing quality. I preview the items before they ship and pick my favorites. As someone who has been hiding behind my drab clothes for years, Stitch Fix has been a major part of my life change and I am grateful to my stylist! Shout out to Kyla! The pricing is not for everyone, but the quality of the items is fantastic and I have pieces that will last for years.

I’m fortunate to live in an area with tons of discount stores. One chain that started locally, kinda branching out, is Gabes/Gabriel Brothers. It started in a tiny strip mall when I was kid and the clothes would be in boxes on the floor and priced flat from .25 to $5. Their father technically started it during the Depression with a horse and buggy, going door to door, but the sons took it to retail in the 80’s. But, the clothes you would find in high end retail stores you find there for amazing prices. I have bought coats marked at $300 for $20, for instance. Love that store. I have also found perfumes, purses, shoes, homewares, etc. You can walk out with huge bags of stuff and spend 10% what regular retail would have been at the mall. My grandson loves that store. People love or hate it, because it’s not the most organized store. I always have really good luck, my mom hates it, lol. I can’t bring myself to spend more than $10 on any piece of clothing in general.

Thank you for thinking about clothing costs like a real person. I watch Stitch Fix and other closing subscription unboxings on other channels and am amazed at how much some people spend on things without blinking an eye. It's nice to see someone who shops like I do! I would suggest writing down the information about all the pieces you liked and looking on ebay, mercari, and poshmark.

I would personally just keep the skirt. You really loved it, and to have something you love that much for $40 is worth it. The cardigan is cute, but not unique enough to pay that price, in my opinion.

Buy the skirt!!! Unlike the rest of the items, it’s a unique piece you won’t find easily elsewhere

I would get the cardigan. It looked good on you. And then try Poshmark or Threadup to see if you can find the exact skirt at a cheaper price. That cardigan is a good price, I think.

I'd keep either the cardigan or the tank. You'll get to apply the styling fee and just pay the difference. I agree, those prices are high!! Great video :)

i would just keep the skirt! it’s unique & pretty & fit you amazingly! plus, since it’s a known brand name you might get a decent amount for it if you sell it second hand later. the cardigan is nice but it looks like every other cardigan, and you can find nice cardigans almost identical to it for way cheaper

I used Stitch Fix because 1. I hate to shop, I have very few options in my town. 2. I changed careers and went from clinical Healthcare, wore scrubs everyday to a job where I needed to wear business casual. It was perfect for me. I always communicated with the stylist what I was looking for and got some great pieces!

those are going to be your "thanksgiving" jeans. MY sisters favorite holiday and she always makes sure she wears a looser in the belly jeans for that day as she really , really loves thanksgiving types of meals. However I also think they look amazing on you and that they might even shrink in wash/dryer a little bit.

I love that burnt Carmel sweater on you, looks so luxurious

Those jeans look really good on you! I wish they were more supportive. I really really like the first outfit on you A LOT.

I have several health issues and pain constantly. I hate to shop. Stitch Fix is a help and convenience for me. It may be more expense to have someone pick out clothes for me and send them do my door, but it’s a service I am willing to pay for.

I would keep either the skirt or the tank. Apply your styling fee. That way the tank is only 10 bucks out of your pocket since you've already paid the $20. Or the skirt is 40 since you've already paid the 20. The cardigan is cute but you can find that anywhere. Just decide which one you like better.

Another creator I watch was reviewing another box of this type. She said "it encourages lukewarm buying". I totally agree. It's so easy to get caught up in the "deal" and you already have the stuff there. But the truth is you're too cute for that boxy sweater and those ill-fitting jeans. If you tried them on in a store you would pass. And that tank top, although it was super cute on you, is absolutely something you could find at like Forever 21 for like 1/3 of the price. Just my two cents

Buy quality you buy once. Buy cheap you will buy many.

If the quality is there I can see me buying more expensive things, but if the quality of the pieces is average is a pass, plus I concider also the wearability of the clothing that is important too. I don't care about brands much unless the fabric they use and manufacturing is good.

I love that skirt and think you'd wear it a BUNCH! And you clearly love the cardigan. I agree the sweater wasn't the *most* flattering and I'd have sent it back, too. The thing about Stitch Fix is the more you shop, the closer they get to your actual style (so long as you're totally honest about what you do and don't like about each item). And sometimes I'm really surprised by things I'd think I hate until I put it on! AND, I don't love shopping. Also, it doesn't cost you anything but you're time and a styling fee. So keep trying!

I love Stitch fix because I do not have time or energy to go shopping. I love when Stitch Fix comes to my house: my stylist has curated the clothes, everything is my size, I can try the pieces with stuff I already own with different shoes & the right underpinnings. I pick pieces that I love. I don't have to deal with dressing rooms, bad lighting, not having my size, wearing the wrong bra/underwear/shoes, overwhelm with choices, and time crunch. Also, I can try the pieces on why baby is sleeping and I don't have to call a sitter.

For me, this is a great way to find actual plus size clothes since they never have them in store. And someone to pick stuff for me that is out of my comfort zone that I may never even consider trying on. I loved my first box. Sent back the stuff I didn’t want but got 3 great pieces. Will probably pause it for as needed soon since I don’t need a ton of clothes

My daughter enjoyed Stitch Fix because they sent her stuff that she wouldn't have picked out herself in a store. It came about after we went into a store and a nice sales lady was helping her pick out a dress and offered this one that she and I both had made fun of on the hanger, but when she tried it on it was absolutely gorgeous on her. Since then she decided to try different things and Stitch Fix was a way to do it for her in her VERY busy life. I tried it too but didn't like it, the stylists I kept getting didn't listen to me so I kept getting shirts that were WAY too short (big boob problems) but I did find my absolute favorite pair of jeans through them. So the service works for some but not all.

I get Stitch Fix in the UK. I chose the lowest price tier and in the year I’ve had it have had a box every 3 months. Have kept 2-3 of the items in each box and have been pleased with them. In last box I was able to choose from a selection before they were posted which I think was a really good idea.

As a plus size women I have a really hard time finding cute clothes- I get stitch fix every few months and usually keep one or two items - I don’t like some of the prices but I usually get pieces under $40 ( which isn’t bad for plus sized clothes unfortunately) and they become staples in my wardrobe and have been some of my favorites over the years. I do have the yearly membership they offer to some after they have been members for awhile where you only pay $50 for a year of styling and get that money in credits back on your account 🤷‍♀️

@@Alexandria-Ryan I'm happy your things are selling, your such a funny character we all love to watch 😊😊 You should put Jimmy on a coffee mug ha ha 😄👍. You'll have to let me know how to buy one of your candles

This was so refreshing. I love to thrift shop and hit the Old Navy and Kohl's clearance racks, so watching a lot of clothing hauls on KZread feels so unrelatable. But a $100 shopping spree at TJ Maxx? Yes please!

I’m so sorry to hear about your picture day experience. That really resonates with me. I had a family member tell me my calves were soooo big. I refuse to wear anything that shows my calves to this day. I won’t ever order Stitch Fix! You pointed out the exact dilemma. You’re stuck with them all because it’s “cheaper” to buy it all! Thanks for sharing.

I had a (now ex) best friend who I was talking to about what I wanted in a prom dress "I want it to hide like my problem areas" "yeah, like your arms" I had NEVER had an issue with my arms! But then I did for like six years...

ThredUP has a similar model, it is called the Goody Box. There is a $10 styling free. Everything is second hand so the prices are more reasonable and I got items that still had tags. It is a 7 day return window. I like it better than Stitch Fix. The prices are better, it is more size inclusive and sustainable.

Personally I would keep one thing so the styling fee is going towards a concrete purchase. But only one thing. The prices are too high for what I would deem basic pieces. But these days I buy most of my clothes second hand so idk

Most reviews I ever see for this service involve the phrases "I already have things very similar to this" and "I like it but eh". It's often basics most people have.

I am really liking these stitch fix vids! Mainly because my style is similar to yours. Comfy casual. Cant wait for the next!

I love Stitch Fix. Not all items are so expensive, and you do have longer than 3 days. It’s very easy to extend the try on time on the app several times if needed. As a busy mom, it gives me a convenient alternative and different options to try. Thanks for the video... fun as always!

Ooo I have been wondering if Stitch Fix is worth it or not. Thanks for the review!

You are so welcome!

The skirt fits beautifully and it looks a little more interesting that the usual skirt you'd see... if you're picturing outfits with it already, you might regret sending it back.... just saying....

As a person without any access to a TJ Max or anything similar, I absolutely love my Stitch Fix and have been a subscriber for multiple years at this point. Also I find shopping in general overwhelming and StitchFix really helps with that- You just say yes or no to 5 items. And the prepaid shipper sold me- I always hated having to return things because it was always so complicated but with them it's not. They have gotten pretty good at sending me things I like and that fit me perfectly. My wardrobe has really stepped up over the time I've been with them. I can see if you're a regular in-person shopper how that might not be the case, but I love it. The stuff you got looks super cute :)

I like stitch fix because if you're lucky enough to stick with the same stylist the boxes get better and better the more boxes you get. You have to make sure you are filling out the review of all the items at the end or they won't adjust anything. I have also found that they really read and pay attention to your notes so if your searching for dresses for a semi formal event they will send you a full box of dresses that you likely wouldn't find in stores. It is pricey so I only so a couple boxes a year but I see it as a nice little treat for myself. They also keep track of what you keep and will send you items that pair nicely with stiff you purchased on the past which is kinda cool.

Definitely loved this try-on! Everything was cute and interesting. Since you loved the skirt so much, with the $20 off, it would go down to $40. I would go with that considering how much you liked it. Everything else you can find at Tj Maxx lol. Happy Fall girl! 🎃🍂🧡

Totally agree with you. Marshalls $16.99 max.

I really like that you're doing unboxing subscription boxes that are outside of makeup. It gives your channel some variety and still feeling somewhat like your main content. Idk if you have tried the Thred Up box but I would be interested in seeing that one as a video.

I am stunned at how well matched to you this box was. Everything looked really good on you. I really like the little black top and the cardigan on you but I think you could buy and wear any of it and you would look great

Those jeans looked really good on you, I know you said you were a bit iffy about them but if they are actually comfortable and you would wear them I think they looked really nice. Not sure if this helps but just wanted you to know they did look good

There is a clothing box that I keep seeing advertized on my facebook that talks about how they are the less expensive version of Stitch Fix. It's called Nadine West. Maybe you could check it out and compare them box to box?

I tried it for a few months and got some great pieces. When I first signed up I was able to select that I wanted cheaper items and that helped. I still would get a piece or two that was not worth the price for me but it did help me to try things on I normally wouldn't and then found I actually liked how things I avoided looked.

I've used Stich Fix when I wanted to explore different brands and styles for my wardrobe. I got several things that I really liked and was able to try some brands that I still shop at today. I think the best thing was a really cute summer dress with pockets that I still have after several years. I think Stich Fix is a good box if you have something you want to try or an occasion or like my husband who just hates everything about shopping :). You get 2 or 3 boxes and expand your wardrobe with things that you like and then cancel until you need them again. I don't think this is a box that you get for years and years every month.

Here's how I would look at it, remember old chick speaking, it's subjective. Do you like to shop? Do you like the experience of finding a deal and pieces that really speak to you? If you do then send the stuff back and go on the shopping hunt yourself. Now if you are a person who doesn't like to shop🙋🏼‍♀️ this service would make sense and would actually be a good deal because you are getting more than just the styling and clothing pieces. You are paying to avoid doing something you don't like

The idea of stitch fix is to be able to buy clothes without leaving your house. If you're able to go clothes shopping and actually enjoy it then I don't see the need for stitch fix. I love it because I don't have time for clothes shopping by myself, I'd have to bring my son and trying on clothes in store is a kerfuffle with him lol.

I loved this video and would like to see another one or something similar again! I think the skirt is unique and worth getting. I was going to say the cardigan too, but if it's more because of the color, you'll have many options shortly.

I loved stitch fix while I used it. I got over $700 worth of free clothing in the year and a half of time I was actively getting monthly boxes. This is because they would sometimes send a “Give $100 Get $100” link and you can get up to $100 a year. I did spend a few hundred dollars of my own money as well. Where I live it is more difficult to find nice clothing in my size and this really opened up my wardrobe for me and made me more adventurous. You can pick to get less or more expensive items. Request specific items. Request to never get a specific item, color, pattern, fabric, etc. I didn’t need any more items so I’ve been on pause this year but I might start up again soon.

Where Alexandria disses the entire stylist industry. 🤣🤣🤣. Seriously though I’m cheap and more importantly I don’t have a job where high quality fashion dress is important. I would only pay those prices for a skirt and cardigan if they were impeccably made and I knew I would keep them (and wear) forever. To me, it’s a no brainer. Return it all and pay the styling fee.

Alex you always brighten my day - you could post anything and I’m gonna watch it.

Once I was able to comfortably purchase clothing I was willing to take care of and be proud of, I was able to truly appreciate stitch fix. Love it so much. I esp love it for my kids.

I love StitchFix clothing. I stopped letting the stylist pick out boxes for me and I only buy items directly from their store that I pick out. I know their stuff can be super expensive, but I love every piece I’ve gotten so far. I haven’t shopped for clothes in a regular store in almost 2 years. And can I mention their jeans…oh my God!!! Amazing fit and they look and feel so good on.

Writing b4 try on I love that skirt print! I'm with u on why ppl would ever pay full price on anything! Ok after try on! I love how u go back aND forth w costs I'm same way!

I don't think Stitch Fix is for everyone, but it's great for those it is for. For those who work long hours and don't have time to shop, it's great. For those who get in a rut and find themselves with the same thing over and over in their closet, it can introduce them to really cute things they may not have considered. For those who are a larger size and have trouble finding cute things that would fit, it's awesome! But for those who love to shop and bargain hunt, have no trouble finding their size and time to do it, it really doesn't solve any problems for them.

That lamp in the background is everything!

The black top with the skirt & cardigan looks sooo good on you!! Super cute 💞

I love Stitch Fix. I have a prosthetic breast and a colostomy bag (TMI for a reason) and I’ve really, really struggled to dress to accommodate these. I wore clothes that were 5 sizes too big to make sure people couldn’t see my ‘add ons’. I tried Lookieroo first - it was dreadful. They sent a crop top and low cut top 🙄. Then I tried Stitch Fix, I could have cried. For the first time since my surgery I was wearing semi fitted clothes that covered my bag and boob. The stylist (Lotti) has been so wonderful and makes suggestions on how to wear lower cut tops without showing the prosthetic. I’ve never felt better dressed. I have zero sense of style anyway, so I love having a stylist. The fact she helps me cover problematic areas is just such a bonus. Loved the cardigan on you btw (I reckon a year after getting it, you’d be well out of your return period 😋)

I would keep the skirt. It looked amazing on you and minus the styling fee it would only be an additional 40. It would be much easier to find the cardigan elsewhere cheaper, while the skirt might be more difficult. Great video and congrats on the new merch!

So! Stitch Fix can be pricey for sure. What I will say is that my SF pieces are things I reach for over and over again, and they hold up so well. I absolutely love everything I've ever kept from them, and I can wear them regularly for years without issue. I think it's nice to treat yourself to clothing sometimes! Of course, you can find some of these pieces thrifted for cheaper, for sure. But, TJ Max, F21, etc....their clothes just don't hold up the same way (imo).

So fun! Love everything on you. Get what you will wear! I loved the skirt on you.
