      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 had a 2nd grade teacher who made fun of me for wearing dresses and having long hair. She hated that my mom would do my hair everyday. The teacher would pick on me in front of the class and even threatened cutting off my hair! I was always the "quiet" kid, so I was extra mortified.

      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.

      While this is true,you have to also keep in mind that most of these people that buy with batting an eyelash is not just frivolous with money. If they make a video and earn money off of it, then that haul becomes a business expense. So it is ultimately lowers their income for taxes and they get clothes from it which they can resell and make money.

    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

    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.

    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!

    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.

  • @Heart_rachel

    I used to be a stylist for another company! I worked for a plus size company, so most people who buy those sizes are pretty used to shopping online and having to order clothes to try them on and then send them back, and lots of their customers don’t live close to plus size stores. If you’re able to reliably shop in person…I’m not really sure what the draw is.

    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.

Sorry, NOT worth $60....but the sweater is really pretty and depending on the quality $40 is...ok pricewise. The tank you can find at Walmart for $12! $30 FOR A TANK TOP???? They must think we are either extremely wealthy (money tree in the back yard) or extrememly stupid. I just finally ordered a pair of jeans, and it took me forever because I waited for the price to to come down. They were $40 and I paid $24.99...so I'm happy....for now. On the plus side...you look cute in everything you where. You remind me so much of my middle daughter (I have 3)...same sort of personality. Love your vids.

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 🤷‍♀️

If you do then send the stuff back and go on the shopping hunt yourself.

    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 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.
