It is that time again!  My July Stitch Fix box has arrived!

I'm not going to lie... I was unimpressed at what I saw when I snuck in and looked at what was on its way to me.  None of the pieces really caught my eye.  Low and behold, they get here... I try them on and what do you know, I'm smitten with two pieces.

My quick run down of Stitch Fix.  Sign up (AND GET YOUR FIRST BOX FREE).  Do a style profile.  A stylist picks out 5 pieces to send to you (each month, every other month, once a quarter.. whenever, you schedule it!).  You buy what you like, and send back what you don't like.  Your $20 styling fee is applied towards any items you decide to keep.  And you can even tell your stylist about upcoming events or particular pieces you are looking to add to your closet.

So here is what I got this month.

And remember... I am NOT, nor do I claim to be a fashion blogger..

 Helga Ruffle Sleeve Detail Knit Top

I wasn't sure of this print or style when I first saw what was headed my way.  But I am honestly a fan.  I have been gravitating towards florals as of late and a shirt like this can be dressed up or down depending on my needs.  This one is a keeper going into fall (maybe someday the temps will start to cool their roll just a bit), especially because it is fully lined.

Moraine Button Down Chambray Top

I can't y'all.  This shirt is TERRIBLE.  It reminds me so much of a shirt my dad would wear (sorry Dad! Nothing against these shirts on you... just me).  And not in the male clothing on women is in way.  I think this was sent to me because I mentioned that I was heading to a Shania Twain concert next week.  Obviously country music and denim are a thing.  But no.  I knew this one was going back from the minute I pulled it out of the box.

Katlin Poplin Embroidery Detail Dress

I LOVE THIS DRESS.  I truly feel like it cinches in at just the right point.  My only reservation is that it is a fairly simple unlined dress for $68.  Maybe this is what people pay for clothing?  I'm not sure.  But to me it seems high for the material.  I am woefully sending it back.

So I am two boxes in.  What are my thoughts now?  I am so used to paying Target clearance rack prices for the clothing that I wear, that I am still struggling with most of the price points.  Which is unfortunate because I would probably keep a lot more if it were not for the price tags.  I still love having someone else shop for me.  But I am probably going to bump my boxes back out to every other month or more so that I can not feel so much guilt about keeping multiple pieces from each box.  Let's be real... cruising the Target clearance racks this evening I came across a shirt I LOVED for under $10 (Knox Rose brand, anyone?).  I feel zero guilt adding a shirt to my cart when it is priced so low.  But I am really struggling justifying the price points on some of these pieces.

Anyway, if you joined Stitch Fix - what are YOUR thoughts?
