Stitch Fix gets my thumbs up!
Sometimes I am late to the party.
Not often. As I am Dutch and thus very punctual. And if punctuality isn’t a
Dutch trait, I don’t know what is!
But I fear today’s recommendation
may be late to the party. In the sense that everyone, except me, is doing it,
has been doing it and can’t remember a time when they didn’t do it. Like Uber or hot yoga.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present
to you: Stitch Fix. 2 of my most stylish girlfriends use it, and I am hot to give
it a try. The concept is simple and it is genius: A personal stylist sends you
clothes.
It’s style in a snap, and you
know how I love shortcuts (and also getting anything in the mail that’s not tax
related). You keep the clothes you like and send back the ones you don’t.
They source from funky boutiques
so you won’t see your same outfit on the soccer mom next to you. And you don’t
have to spend time scouring the boutiques for that perfect eclectic look.
Stitch Fix does that for you!
You fill out a profile that
specifies your style, size and price point. Most items are in the $50 range,
but you can go higher or lower. You tell them how often you want to receive a
package (for instance, every other month). And you pay them a $20 styling fee each
time you receive a package.
A package includes 5 items. If
you keep even one item your $20 styling fee is credited towards your purchase
price. Last month my friend got a killer pair of jeans that fit perfectly, and
it was a brand she’d never thought to try.
Indulge your inner celebrity, and
give Stitch Fix a go. (Click this link to visit the Stitch Fix site.) Bonus points if you throw back some bubbly in your closet when your
first package arrives and you have a try-on party!
Happy shopping, guru girls &
guys!
