Does the $100 credit cover the styling fee and the remainder will go towards one of the items (or more) in the box? Yes, and if you buy an item they add the styling fee back into that, too. So you may be able to spend the whole $100. You can also save it, use it to buy directly from the website or spread it out to multiple boxes.

So, if you bought your whole box, how much would it cost you? How much do you generally spend a month? I've been interested in Stitch Fix and in Nordstrom's box, but I just don't know how much they really cost people. Check out the unboxings on youtube. There are many different people that do them and they are different ages and different styles Kate Benz is a former SF stylist that is also answering viewer questions in each unboxing.

I've considered this for a while, but don't want to sign up (please, no more junk email) until I am 100% sure I want to give it a try. I have a question, do they ask for your measurements, and if so, does that help with fit? I've found that ordering clothing by size is such a hit or miss things depending on the brand. I often buy 2 sizes and return one to be sure I get the best fit.

I often buy 2 sizes and return one to be sure I get the best fit. I don’t think there was an option for measurements (Except bra size was one of the questions) except for jean size where you could put the waist and/or size. You input a size on each category: jeans, dresses, skirts, tops, coats etc so I think that helps a bit. They also have an option when you “check out” where you like and want the item but want to exchange the size (if it’s available) and there is no charge for that and also free returns for 30 days if it turned out the new size wasn’t right either. br] So far, I’ve found the sizes seem pretty consistent. Everything I have tried has fit me the way I expect the size to. It’s just a matter of if I like the item, the way it looks on me, If I think the price is right, if I need it, etc.

The only issue would be hoping you get a great stylist that reads all of your notes. You can however, request a new stylist if you feel like your isn't a good match. Also, I have found that adding your styles in the fix inspiration, the style shuffle and also tagging stuff you like helps a ton. My second box was WAY better than my first.

Been doing Stitch Fix for a about a year or so, very other month delivery. I think I only kept an entire box one time. Like there pants and jeans, tops have been hit or miss, but when it's a hit they become favorites.
There customer service is fantastic. I am very picky and only wear pants/jeans and long sleeve shirts. Even though I was very specific they still sent 3/4 or short sleeve tops and skirts a few times. It was frustrating since everything else was great and I could not get the whole box discount due to the offending skirt or short sleeve top. Since it happened more than once I complained and they gave me a nice credit.
Tried Thred Up and it was awful. Such hideous clothes, crazy sizing, I swear one item was a child size. Plus they claim designer items and the box I received included things from Old Navy and Penny's, and very high priced. Pre-owned Old Navy jersey, $45.00! Tried two boxes, both were the same.

You are welcome! If you signed up I hope you have fun with it! I saw that My $100 off code expired in 27 hours so if anyone else wants to use it today (Sunday) would be the last day.

Thanks for answering my questions about sizing, I really appreciate it! I think I’m going to hold off for now. I thought about it and it just doesn’t make much sense for me right now. I’m living in loungewear and athleisure. Maybe once we’ve recovered from the pandemic it’ll make more sense for me.

I’m living in loungewear and athleisure. Maybe once we’ve recovered from the pandemic it’ll make more sense for me. Sure! Although they do have athletic wear and leisure wear! I haven’t gotten those, though. You can also sign up and get a box and then just select to have a box when you chose to have one - not on any schedule. Not trying to get you to sign up- just giving information for anyone. It’s helpful for me because I had lost weight and my old wardrobe didn’t fit so this is allowing me to slowly build it from the comfort of my home even if there’s not many places to wear it now. Lol Soon hopefully!!!!!

Congrats on the huge weightloss. You must feel so much better! I lost around that much almost 20 years ago. I went from a size 20 to a 2, and I'm barely 5', so it really made a difference. I had to buy clothes at the halfway point and then at the end. Everything was just falling off.
I hope that people here do buy and use your code. I would but we're extremely restricted. Good luck with it though, and congrats again!!

Thank you for the links. I have been feeling extra frumpy lately at work, so I thought this might be a good pick me up. I have Quarantummy to get rid of, so I am inspired by these great weight loss stories as well!

Thank you! Giving it a go because I need to escape the rotating yoga pant selection I've been sporting since March and I really don't enjoy shopping. It will be fun to see what transpires!

Well, dang- just saw this thread and I subscribed a week ago. I got my first box, but didn't keep anything. I loved the jeans, but was sent a size 2, not 4 and I also needed petite- which I specifically requested. I did like the sweater, but it was a little too tight across my boobs. The booties were cute, but I needed narrow for my bony feet. The cargo jacket was a total miss- no cargo anything for me. Also, the blouse was a miss- way too loose and flowy. I'm not trying to be rude, but do the stylists not read anything in your profile? Why did I go through all of that if it's not going to be used to create my box? I do understand that stock may be low, so maybe I subscribed at the wrong time. I get another box next week, so I'll see.

Wow thank you for this post. On a whim I decided to try it using one of the referral codes. I got my first box and I am elated with how much she hit my style right on the head, everything fit and I am totally impressed. So much so, I decided to keep the whole box and will likely continue every other month or so. I followed other's suggestions about being very specific about what I didn't and did like and what I was looking for...while also doing all the style quizzes. It came SUPER quick and I couldn't be happier. So I'm back here to share with others as I now have a code too! www.stitchfix.com/invite/phzvjrhpkc?pbid=8299665&sod=w&som=c

Thank you for this suggestion. I got my box yesterday and loved it. I got 5 pieces and loved 4 of them, I only liked one of the shirts. It was fun, I kept the entire box.

I’m living in loungewear and athleisure. Maybe once we’ve recovered from the pandemic it’ll make more sense for me. I would try it now while the $100 codes are available. The usual is a $25 referral code, which would only cover a styling fee or maybe half an item. Exchanges on sizing are free. Plus, it's fun to have a box come in the mail when you are bored.

mom2rnb and tincin how much did you end up paying for your boxes? Also how much time did you spend on your preferences?

I’m not sure why anyone wouldn’t do it now - with the $100 off you basically get an item or two free with nothing to lose - correct?
My last box which came last week I kept 3 items: a super cozy top to wear with leggings/running tights, a cute plaid button down I wouldn’t normally buy and a soft, pretty white and blue sleeveless top. They also sent awesome jeans that I wanted to keep - but the fifth item I really didn’t like (a light sweater with bell sleeves - I’m not a fan of big bell sleeves) so I sent it back with the jeans.
My next box I have specially requested high rise jeans and more soft clothes haha.

Also once you buy an item you can use their “shop” feature to buy suggestions they have for clothes to go with it. They also have an option to view similar items to what you’ve bought and also view items suggested for you. You can buy straight for them without getting a box. I’m wondering if those of you who filled out your style profile have this “shop” feature and if you can see if you like the items? Here is what mine looks like for suggestions of clothes to buy that go with what I’ve already purchased (as you can see right now I definitely lean to the comfortable and casual - I’m not going into an office anytime soon!)

mom2rnb and tincin how much did you end up paying for your boxes? Also how much time did you spend on your preferences? It was right around $90 all in once they subtracted the $100 code.

~summer~ I looked but didn’t buy. I don’t need a ton of new clothes because I’m not really doing much right now. I’m still going through my clothes that are too big now. Plus I’d like to go down another size. The clothes are nice though as was the surprise factor.
