Having your own personal stylist isn’t just for the rich and famous. Sign up for Stitch Fix and get real style advice for real people.
It’s Stitch Fix time again! I don’t shop much beyond groceries and crafty things these days so it’s fun to get this box in the mail. What I like best is that you can pick how frequently they arrive from as frequently as once a month to as little as only when you ask for one. Right now I am thinking every other month may suit me. For more details on Stitch Fix and how it works, check out my post from December 2014. Otherwise, let’s dig in!
Side note: Stick through the entire post and you’ll also get a chance for a free month of another fun fashion service – Rocksbox.
1. Collective Concepts Esten Button-Up Sleeveless Blouse / XS / $54: While I am not normally much of a pink wearer, I do own a similar color/style shirt that is past it’s prime and could use an update. It does wrinkle easily, as you can see in the next photo, after only a couple of minutes being tucked into the skirt. MAYBE. Final decision: Kept, time to trade in the older one.
2. Gilli Kelsey Skirt / S / $54: I enjoy the texture and print of this skirt. So much so that I already own a very similar skirt, except mine fits more like a pencil skirt which I prefer. RETURN.
3. Kut From The Kloth Denny Knit Pant / 4 / $68: I have a serious weakness for skinny jeans, especially soft, comfortable ones. However I already own a pair of black skinny jeans and do not need another. While this pair is slightly more comfortable than mine, they were crazy long and had to roll them up. (Admittedly I do roll my pants on purpose sometimes but I still don’t need a second pair.) RETURN.
4. Urban Expressions Adelade Woven Fold-Over Clutch / $48: I don’t usually trade out purses based on my outfits/seasons, instead I tend to use the same purse until it falls apart. But I do like to downsize when it’s for a special event like a wedding or a night out where I don’t want to deal with a bulkier bag. This woven fold-over clutch it a great size, color, and versatile. But $48? MAYBE. Final decision: It’s pricey but gosh it’s pretty and multi functional so I splurged.
5. 41Hawthorne Jace Abstract Chevron Print Dress / S / $68: In case you were unaware I love purple, so this dress was the first thing I noticed in my box. It also happens to look really cute paired with a belt and a blazer (which I failed to get a picture of). I also like that the chevron print has a print within itself. Inception prints! KEEPER.

If you are interested in trying out Rocksbox, I have one free month to share with 3 lucky readers which I will randomly select on Friday. Just leave a comment on this post with your Valentine’s Day plans – Cooking? Going out? Having a girls night? Tell me and that will count as your entry. Of course you’re welcome to also follow me on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram / Google+ but it will not increase your odds at winning. But you will win my love ;-). CLOSED
Disclosure: This is not a sponsored post! I pay for these clothes on my own. However, this post does provide referral links for new sign ups which gives me a little credit to go towards my next box.

Great outfits! I absolutely love them!!!!!!!!!!!
I love that skirt! I am waiting on my February Stitch FIx right now and have pinned it to my board. For Valentine’s day, I am going to surprise my kids with cinnamon rolls for breakfast. (It may be an excuse for me to eat cinnamon rolls…)
Sounds like the perfect way to start Valentine’s Day!
I like the dress and the sleeveless shirt. I also like knowing that I’m not the only person who carries one purse until it wears out. I will do something small and dressy for special occasions, but those are very rare in my life except when I’m on a cruise ship.
Love the dress! I like the purse!
Ditch the clutch, keep the dress. Absolutely keep the dress!! And I’m having furniture delivered for Valentines Day ;)
Ooo always love new furniture!
LOVE the purple dress. You have to keep it. I’d also love to try out Rocksbox (never heard of it, but sounds wonderful.) I have plans for family movie night on V-Day. :)
Love the dress! My Valentine’s Day plans are to have a nice romantic dinner out.
I love the clutch and the first skirt/top outfit. I treat my purses horribly and so it would be hard for me to validate the $48 only to potentially ruin it day too. But it sure is cute. And I haven’t heard of Rocksbox before. I will have to check that out. I am hopeless with accessories.
Ok that dress is a KEEPER! Do not return coz it looks amazing on you especially with the belt. The rest of the box were great too but sounds like you have similar items which you can do without. As far as the jewelry go, I am so in!! I have to sign up for this. I love shopping for clothes and bags and can’t possibly see myself doing stitch fix but jewelry that’s my weakness and I can never a) buy it or b) wear it. So this will motivate me!! Wait …I need to answer question to enter. I am staying in for v’day with the hubs with lots of drinks and desserts.
My husband set up a Painting party for us that’s BYOB!! Can’t wait :)
How fun is that!? I love BYOB painting parties.
nothin! they know nothin :P
My Valentine’s Day plans are going to Michael’s cousin’s wedding!
and you look super cute in everything! I def. think you should keep that dress! and prob the shirt too!
Haha well you’re a terrible yet awesome influence. Bob was telling me to just pick one thing, but what do boys know?
I returned a black version of that clutch from my last Fix…and after 16 Fixes, i’m pretty sure it’s the only thing I have ever regretted sending back!
Oh man really!? That’s serious haha.
Yep! I tend to regret things I keep more than things I send back!
I actually love everything in the box, but I hear ya that you don’t need near-duplicates of stuff already in your closet. =) The purple dress is absolutely my favorite – it is SO cute. KEEPER for sure!
Haha it’s funny cause they are so good at picking out stuff sometimes that I already own similar pieces! I am leaning towards keeping the dress for sure and maybe the pink top and/or clutch.
love that dress!
Thanks Lindsay!
