I LIED to Stitch Fix and this is what happened | Jen Luv

- So.... I've had some bad luck with Stitch Fix in the past, mostly just them completely missing my style. But it has been a while, so I decided to try to trick them into styling me better... by lying about my age. This is what happened.

NOTE
Looking back on this, though I really liked the design of the striped hoodie, it was DEFINITELY not worth $58! Maybe $25. I think I just really wanted to like it and pushed myself to get it. It's so thin for that price. If I had to do it again, I would have returned that shirt and the jeans.

I would absolutely LOVEEEE a series of you getting two boxes one with your actual age and one younger version!! I know that would be a big cost tho! Please consider it!!!
That’s a great idea! 🙂
I love this idea!!!
Love this idea
I just can't comprehend how this service is so popular, I can't believe it's real stylists picking the most basic TESCO-lookalike hoodies.
Lol same. I though the hoodie looked god awful! Bad color blocking.
Thank you for reading my mind!😁
i am in shock that this clothing is $300. i thought it was going to be a $50 box, but “worth” that much. but you only save 25%? that stuff is nice, but it looks like stuff you could easily get at kohl’s or burlington for cheaper.
IKR so expensive. I tried stich Fix. They dressed me too old. I'm still young in my heart.
I would never pay that much money for clothes, especially since I don't work in an office, working from home I'm from home I don't need to wear really fancy clothes which cost an arm in a leg
I agree! Plus you could go to the store & have that experience & actually get to try the items on. Those shoes for $99? Uhm no way.
I mean, it would be fine if it wasn't the most basic clothes in the world. Who are these stylists picking pants and shirt of the same color, grey basic sweater and calling it "FASHION subscribtion service"??
@@melissadean6874 the quality of stitch fix clothes is definitely worse than some of these other brands listed…
I love the idea of “lying” about your age to get better picks. I’m 42 and hate everything a stylist picks out for me, they make me feel like a grandma, lol
I straight up told my stylist to pretend I was in my 30s not 50s because I feel like I dress younger & it has worked out great…in fact too good, I often want to keep everything but my bank account won’t allow that!
I’m a grandma and even I don’t wanna look like a grandma 🤣
For real. I’m 46 years old wearing an old band shirt from high school and leather pants. I’d need a wild stylist 😂😂😂
OMG yes! I'm 39 and they try to dress me like I'm 65! I have a feeling the stylists are very young and they assume that when you're near 40, you're old! LOL I've had better luck with Trunk Club.
Same!lol
I can see this being a draw for people who hate shopping but honestly, the prices they charge for the items they offer are too much IMO.
They're Kohl's clothes at department store prices.
I feel like kohl’s clothes are even better quality than stitch fix too…
Yeah the prices they charge for some things is absolutely shocking.
Yes!!! I ordered once. Didn't like the items they sent me a new package. Everything was so expensive. Like those black boots you can find for $40. It's not even really nice stuff.
Cute stuff but I think you can find the same quality and similar style of things at Marshall's or TJ Maxx for a fraction of the price. 🙂
Maybe. Important hard to fit. Stitchfix clothes actually fit and are delivered to me. Well worth paying a little more than to dig through the racks at one of those stores.
@@amygreen9662 Good to know, I can never find anything that fits good at those discount stores.
I'm
But you don’t have to deal with people and stand in lines to check out for 20 minutes with Typhoid Mary coughing a lung up next to you because they only have two lousy registers open.
I have gotten a few good things with stitch fix but I could find equivalent stuff at TJ Maxx or Marshalls. I keep the things that are most interesting. I gave up on pants from stitch fix because I have to try those things on and I think the pants that would fit would cost way too much. I search the Maxx regularly for pants, but mostly do sales at nicer stores or name brand at consignment.
I have a stitch fix subscription, and I really like it. For me, the clothes are worth the price. It refreshes my wardrobe without me having to push myself to exhaustion. I have fibromyalgia and back problems. My styles have gotten more and more my taste because you can give feedback online for each item.
I have used this service 3 times. I wouldn't pay $99 for fast fashion shoes, so I didn't buy shoes or accessories. I received a similar hoodie to you, and it pilled immediately. My daughter got a sweater, she wore it 2x we didn't even wash it yet and it looked awful after the 2nd wearing. There just is no value in there for me.. it's fast fashion, so it should be much less expensive for the quality.
Maybe it’s because I’m very comfortable styling myself/knowing what I like, but this seems way overpriced. Both for the items themselves and the “styling fee.” So many online retailers offer free return shipping, I can’t fathom paying 20 bucks just to try stuff on.
In my last two fixes I've gotten the exact same pieces that you got, even down to the black booties! My stylist is Laura so we don't have the same person but it was just too funny as you were holding each thing up, I was like, "yup, got that one...that one too!" 😂🤣 On a side note, I told them my true age (44) and they still sent me the same things so I guess age doesn't factor in too much. ❤️
Same! And I'm 49! I did it for a while and the items did get repetitive.
I mean... who knows? Maybe the age thing didn't make any difference!
@@jenluv Hey! Joyful Living with Jen Lefforge on YT does a sponsor with them & when people use her link/code then she gets money to put towards her next purchases. (they may pay her as well? not sure) But it might be worth contacting them to see if you can do the same. You have PLENTY of subs. I think Jen has about 12K subs? She does have a 2nd channel that is just "Jen Lefforge" that is Disney related that has 24K subs. :)
@@jenluv age doesn’t really make a difference. Honestly at this point the reason why you both got similar pieces is bc the computer algo picks out most of the clothes based on - the questions you answered, what is in stock (they have had serious inventory issues for awhile now), and the way you rate pieces in the thumbs up/thumbs down game. I’m sure there are other factors but that’s mostly it. When you get your preview it will most likely have been completely algo generated. If you don’t select 5 pieces THEN it goes to a stylist for their additions. (I am a former SF stylist).
@@Wonderland. So I’m curious, if much of it is based on algorithm, then it sounds like a customer would not notice much of a difference if they select to be placed with a different stylist for future boxes?
I have started to notice being sent the same items as previous boxes, just different color or repeatedly sending me items that contradict with what I’ve stated were likes and dislikes -
I did get a pair of pants in one box that had a horrible smell to them. A blazer I kept, maybe a year old now and worn maybe 10 times total has a whole in the seam of the arm.
I’ve started to suspect, at the end of the day, this is like a subscription version of purchasing 5 items from Tjmaxx- ish type clothes with massive markup.
I can’t understand why they would make a hoodie that’s so thin you can’t wear a t shirt or anything not your skin tone or white. Hoodies are supposed to be comfy and easy not skin tight and see through.
It was so cool seeing more of your studio! 🤩
I know skinny jeans are “out” or whatever but I still like them. There is something really cute about a high waisted pair of black skinny jeans with black heels or boots.
It is nice though that there are other options you can choose from now though because for a minute there it seemed like all there was was skinny jeans.
I really liked this... A little change of pace. And Jen,you looked amazing in every single piece!
Great picks, and they all look great on you!
That black top with cross cross detail looked GREAT! I might just go up 1 size on that striped hoodie.
hi jen! ive been waiting for this. love to your family 💜
I'm a plus-size girl. I have tried Gwynnie Bee (more of a rental service) and Dia & Co. I liked them both, it just got to be too expensive for me. But the stylists were always really good with my style. I also prefer a plainer style. I loved that black sweater. I've had ones like that in the past and they are sooo comfy. As soon as you said you were "over" cold-shoulder, I totally understood. I have several in my closet that every time I look at them I just sort of go "nah" and move on. Love the fashion stuff! Keep on rocking!
Thank you Jen for another great video!
The black top, jeans and those boots look terrific.
I like that you get shoes with this box. I think this is the best unboxing of this box that I've seen. It fits you well. I have been doing Wantable for several months now. I like their discount if you keep 5 or more and that you can do theme boxes, keep your same stylist and request certain items (no guarantee though).
Love stichfix!! I have that same sweater with crisscross on the back. Everything looked great on you!!! I’m glad you kept the jeans!!!!
This was so expensive... I'm quite shocked that people use this service! It feels like some of those items shouldn't have been as expensive as they were quoted, but I'm so freaking cheap when it comes to clothing. I loved the jeans. I would imagine you could get similar types of tops for far cheaper elsewhere. (Though I'm not judging how you or anyone spends their money! I swear I don't care! People would think the crap I spend real money on is ludicrous!)
Honestly just looks like leftover stock from fast fashion brands... I don't think it's worth it at all.
@@spankidoodles TOTALLY agree.
Love this video! I find these really interesting to watch!
So fun! You look awesome in everthing!! I'm glad you enjoyed what you got:)
I definitely enjoyed this video Jen 👍
I love that blue sweater and jeans. Super cute and flattering.
Just the distraction I needed today… this was fun!
Cute! Did it throw anyone else off that Jen stood up? Lol I don’t think I’ve seen her ever not seated 😂😂
I have that black sweater but in maroon, and I love it! It's held up really well as long as it's washed properly!
I love the strappy back sweater!
I love the first two sweaters!
this was a fun video! I like that sweater.
Everything looked cute! I loved the jeans especially. That style is usually what I go for.
Loved this!!!!!! I love the fact that you collect FunCo Pops lol...my 23 yr old son is a collection artist. 😍
I love to see you do styling box comparison!!!
I'm impressed, the "lying" about your age certainly worked! I liked everything you received, even the black top - I, especially liked the back detail.
Stitchfix has only recently become available in the UK and I'm keen to give it go - I think I too will be embroidering on the truth regarding my age, I dress quite young (I'm 61) and I really don't want clothing for an elderly person 😂😂.
Mad love to you 💗💗💗💗
Loved this, please do more fashion content🥰 the variety is great!
luv the "age collection" on you!
You got really cute stuff love it all! I’ve gotten a fix recently and only kept 2 things but I really like them!
LOVE ALL THE ITEMS! They look great on you! I’m glad you chose to keep them all. I need to try this service. #socute
You could sew a fabric patch to the inside of the jeans underneath the rip which would look really cool.
That's such a great idea!
I got the pink clover sweater in my box as well as the black sweater. The pink clover is definitely one of my favorites. I have worn it at least 6 times since December.
I just discovered you and I love you!!! I’m watching through all your videos even though I really follow makeup news that closely. I would love it if you did more videos like this, or other hauls or subscriptions!!!
Yes!! I have a few cold shoulder tops and I look at them now and wonder what I was thinking. They just don't look as good anymore.
I once tripped on a pair of sleep pants and wrenched the crap out of my knee, so I feel you on the being careful about that.
I think everything you got looks great! I'm not a big pre-ripped jeans person, but those are cute.
i absolutely love your lip combo!
My favorite pick for you was the black sweater but all of these looked like your style!
I love the jeans, boots, blue sweater and black top! I've wanted to try stitch fix because they are size inclusive, so thank you for the review and breakdown. 💕💕💕
I am here for that hoodie!!!
I’m 45 and have a Stitch Fix subscription. I made sure my stylists know that flower prints, stripes, and definitely animal prints were NOT WELCOME. 🙄🙄🙄
I use the comment and suggestion box every time. I let my stylist know what I like, what suits me etc
I think 🤔 I only had one box in 2 years that I didn’t like.
Thank you for sharing ❤😊
Love all my Pink Clover sweaters!!!!
I love the black sweater!
Love your picks!!! Great video! Next time can you maybe go in your living room again for a full body shot so we can see the jeans and shoes better?
The Grey sweater is a classic style, looks very nice and not boring at all .
Honestly, every Stitch Fix video I ever saw has convinced me never to let a stranger choose my clothes!
I have the same Pink Clover sweater from SF in brown and love it! It does hold up well.
The choices were actually very cute!
Jen, you look great in cool colors and makeup!
I hope you still wear a "cold shoulder top" occasionally! You look sooo good in them!!!
I have had that black sweater, but in a maroon color for years and I still wear and love it!
Stitch fix styled me 30 years too young in the beginning, but I give detailed feedback on each item and now they're spot on.
Love the black top!!!!
I really liked this video hop to see more like this in the future. I loved everything that your stylist picked for you. I would keep it all. You looked really nice 👌
Cute stuff. I wish I could wear boots like that! I had a bad ankle sprain years ago, so I have to be really careful! I agree with what people are saying about it being a little high (target has some super cute pajamas that are similar in style), but it is fun to get someone else’s picks, and like you said, it’s once a season.
I had used stitch fix right after I had left a job where I had to wear a uniform for seven years. I honestly didn't know what my style was or how to dress. Stitch fix was a great way to get pieces and the styling suggestions helped me find what I liked. I will say, I had an amazing stylist and had the same stylist for over a year. Each box got better and she would even say things like, I know you loved the skirt you kept last time so here are a couple shirts that would go well with it. I know the pieces were more expensive, and I probably kept about 30% of what was sent. I have since stopped the subscription as my stylist left and I didn't want to start off at square one, but I really enjoyed the subscription.
GET RID OF THE COLD SHOULDERS! I completely agree those shirts are out now
Good idea to change your age....I'm 65 and I haven't loved my Stitch Fix choices for a few picks....I've gotten "old lady" clothes...I'm gonna lie too!!!! ❤️
I’m wearing my pink clover sweater while watching this and I own that love ellie criss cross top in like 6 colors hahaha some of my all time favorite pieces!! I hope you keep the whole box!!
You look so cute in everything! You should do fashion hauls more often. So fun!
The whole box is great! Now we know how to get a box. Minus 15 years and you’re good to go!
The way I CACKLED when you put the hood up 🤣
Loved the colour of pj’s and the rest of clothing looked great, I now want to give it a go 👍🏽
Glad you loved your stuff! My husband tried it for a couple of months, he liked the stuff he got but he'll never pay those prices. ($60 for a button up shirt) The cloths are pretty expensive for what it is but you're really paying extra for the convenience of not going out and shop.
Love all those items - I’d 100% keep everything in that box!
Everything looks AMAZING on you!!!! KEEP the jeans! ...........but I can't lie, this is a little expensive. But I really liked everything on you!
I really really loved everything, even the jeans. I think they're very trendy. And the PJs were simple but really cute too. The black sweater was my favourite though. I love the criss cross in the back.
I was really happy it wasn't low enough that your bra showed. That really would have sucked!❤❤
The hood is cute and the sweater is perfection
I tried Stitch Fix a few years ago. One thing I didn’t like about the website is that you couldn’t see the backside of an item. I added a sweater I thought I would like and the back was terrible. I think most of the pieces were good quality but expensive. It did force me to try things I wouldn’t have normally picked for myself and that was nice. Most times I liked every item except for one. When I added it up it was always cheaper to keep everything than to return one item. Now I have several pieces in my closet that I won’t wear. I was glad I tried it a few times but would not recommend it as a regular option.
I have that black sweater in rust and I love it! 💙
Love the jeans jumper and boots ,the black jumper really cute ,
I think everything looked great on you. This was fun 😘
You’re so cute Jen! I used to get stich fix and I loved it! Being plus sized the options were a little slim pickings! But what I did keep I still love wearing!
I love everything you got, it all looks fabulous on you! I still can't believe that the IMATS shoe debacle us STILL following you. That sucks! 😞
Loved watching this video and I hope you do more! ❤️❤️
Gurl, my foot is still a mess! It's in some stage of swollen 100% of the time. Much worse in bad weather. Thank you for watching, Shannon! 🤗
You probably won’t see this but I work at a dance shop where I fit shoes on people all day and specifically pointe shoes and just wanted to let you know that your feet aren’t weird. Everyone has one foot that is bigger than the other. Interestingly, with pointe shoes we fit the smaller foot since they will stretch. If there is too big of a difference then they have to get 2 different size shoes which we try very very hard to avoid since they are so expensive.
I’ve tried stitch fix and was surprised the jeans fit and I love!
I did my first stitch fix October 2020 literally the same month I got pregnant so haven’t seen but I’m gonna do it again bc it reminded me it is so worth it. I liked everything you got.!!
Maybe the sleep pants will shrink up after a wash. Fun picks. Curious what the old stuff looked like if it was really aging you.
The 90s in me would were tanks under the cream stripped shirt, amee did great!
Plaid tights under the jeans would be cute! And some under the knee warm socks for February and those shorties
OMG the pic of us in our crop tops together (which I haven't worn since) made me miss you 100000 more. 😭 Also, agreed on the Mom jeans. NOPE.
Love you, my friend!! Looking forward to warmer days when we can have a picnic and go for a walk again!
Keep the jeans they fit so well!
Honestly Jen all looks great, please keep the jeans! I cant believe u dont like crop tops, u have a great body! Actually the only thing i didnt like was how long the shirts were..keep it all, if u can afford them. A little pricey
How funny, I had a different stylist. I'm 61 and I got the same tops. Love the videos
I have the exact same black sweater from them and I love it!
I absolutely love the black sweater w criss cross back i got the same one a few boxes ago and I also love the booties. I was just charged my styling fee can't wait for my preview i like stitch fix i have it on a every 3 months cycle I've only once ever gotten the whole box other than that i might just get one item . They sometimes send me offers for a box with no styling fee. They have sent me boxes with jeans that fit great but I would normally never pay the amount for some jeans so i didn't pick them. When I initially signed up it was with a referral link through a friend her cousin is a stylist and it was a wonderful deal i got a 100 dólar credit so basically it was 100 bucks free and anything over I paid.
Love this!
You could always sew little cute patches over the hole in the jeans😁
I think everything looked great!
For the semi see-through top I would wear a layering tank. Though I wear one pretty much every day since 2007.
I actually like everything that the stylist picked out for you and I'm glad you kept it all. It feels overpriced but that's only because I like to go out and get the clothes myself. Great idea lying about your age - the results speak for themselves! :o)
