They sent me an email a few days ago saying my fix was on its way. I was nervous because I lied about my weight "I know...bad...I have been trying very hard to diet...I have lost a few pounds, but not what I said I was!"...I was off by about 8-10 pounds...so I was nervous...and then I read the item descriptions and price. They sent me 2 shirts, a necklace, a jean vest, and a pair of high waisted pants....Ok was what I was thinking.....
Yes, the prices were WAY more than I am comfortable with spending. I will make sure to tell my stylist that I want cheaper items...
The box was not that large. I opened it and it had a little personalized note from my stylist, a picture card with the items and suggestions on what to pair them with. There was a pre-labeled envelope for me to return anything I don't want to keep. There is a 20.00 styling fee that will be applied to anything I decide to keep. If I don't keep anything I am out 20.00....
Ok...I was really surprised with my fix....My initial reaction was that I liked what they sent me. It seemed spot on for what I wrote. I was nervous to try things on because of my weight lie. Sooo...with that being said, I am going to bravely post the pictures Isabella took of me trying them on. I will say this...Most of them would have been PERFECT if I was about 8-10 pounds thinner...but I have been trying hard to lose weight and will get it off!!!!
Cliff Graphic Print Roll-Tab Henley Knit Shirt (88.00)
Ok....here is the deal with the shirt. It is a small...I probably need a medium at my current size...but I loved how the shirt felt. It is made of the best material...it just feels expensive...like one you would buy in a boutique.
Matildy Denim Vest (44.00)
Yes, this is also too small...If I had the right accompany pieces I would like it more. Pretty sure I am returning.
Adora Tortoise Link Necklace (38.00)
Cherise Cotton Tab Sleeve Henley Shirt (58.00)
This shirt was sooo comfortable. It actually looks a lot cuter in person. I like the cut because it makes you look like your waist is skinnier than it is! Not sure what I will do about this one.
Emer High Waisted Cropped Trouser (98.00)
Ok...here is the deal about these pants. They are small (I am not a small)...I LOVE the color and I LOVE the material. It is a stretchy material. It does not have any zippers or buttons. I thought for sure my big butt would not even be able to put them on....but by a miracle I could put them on...and I was shocked because I REALLY liked them. I feel that when I am a smaller size I would wear these a lot. I just love them. I hate the price...but don't want to regret returning them...we shall see...Christa is doing a fix so I will get a 25.00 credit from her.
Random Picts with pieces I own.
Ok....so here are the pros: I loved the excitement of having a surprise package! I felt the stylist really listened to my profile. I heard that you give so much feedback that by your fourth or fifth you are not wanting to send anything back....I love that she sent me things I would never have tried on. I love that I can try the pieces on in my home and it made me look for some of my own items that I could match them up with. I love that it is very easy to send items back. I get to try new designers that I would have no idea about. I liked one of the tops so I went to the website and was able to see other really cute stuff.
cons: Price....pretty much the only con...the items are pricey....I knew right away that I would not keep the 38.00 necklace. It was cute, but Charmin Charlie has way cuter stuff for a lot less..
I'm not sure what I will keep. I know I won't keep the necklace. I don't think I will keep the jean vest.
I have three days to decide. Meanwhile this is what the feedback page looks like.
One last thing. If you keep all 5 items you get to take an additional 25% off...so if you LOVE 4 items, it makes sense to keep all 5...anyway, I have some deciding to do. The problem is that I know I will lose weight but I am not that weight today:)
Overall, I am really happy with the process. I am excited to get another box. I will leave feedback that I want lower prices and maybe a casual dress to wear when running errands...not sure...I can always post the link to my blog and my stylist will know exactly what I look like!
