I received my first Stitch Fix on Friday. I had to buy a full-length mirror because I suck at being put-together and never previously owned one. :-# Then when I took the pictures, I realized that the lighting in our bedroom is really poor. I couldn't find anywhere in the bedroom that the lighting was very good. I should try taking pictures during daylight next time!
Anyway, I'm curious about your input before I share my thoughts. Here are the pieces (POOF)
Dress #1 (navy blue with red polka dots)
Shirt #2 (black with dolman sleeves) and Jeans #3 (skinny)
Shirt #4 (same as above) and Skirt #5 (you really can't see much of the detail on this, but it is dark purple and stretchy with ruching on the sides. (POOF)

I like the flowered top but I'm not a big fan of it with the jeans. I do like it better with the skirt. I'd keep depending on what you plan/have available to wear with it.

I only like the skirt. The jeans are too long, and the dress does nothing for you. Both tops are just ok, but I didn't vote for them because I guarantee you I won't like whatever stitch fix says they cost.

I've been underwhelmed by pretty much every Stitch Fix box I've seen posted online.
However, I think you have some winners here. I love the jeans and shirt #4 on you. I hope you keep those.The dress fits like a dream too, but not sure I love the print.

I love the jeans and shirt #4. How much are each of the pieces? That would help me decide about the dress and black shirt. I like both of those, but would only keep the dress if it were $50 or less and the shirt for $25 or less. I think you could get similar pieces elsewhere if they cost more than that.

I love stitch fix its like Christmas every month! I have that same skirt and it's the best so soft and stretchy. I liked that on you and the jeans the best.
I am kind of shocked that the dress is brining up the rear! I love polka dots, and the fit is perfect. It is my favorite item!
I really like the jeans. Jeans shopping is sort of an ordeal, so when a perfectly-fitting high-quality pair appears on my doorstep with no effort on my part, I'm inclined to keep them
The red and white shirt is a tossup for me. It is ok, but I am not in love with it.
I like the idea of the black shirt, but the sleeves are just too weird. I look like a flying squirrel. Here's a random picture from a Google image search that may show this better (not me). Apparently this is a popular Stitch Fix item LOL.
And the skirt...ohhh...the skirt was a hot mess. It highlighted my pooch, and the ruching didn't lay right at all. I don't know if I needed a size bigger or it just didn't work well with my shape, but it was a total disaster.

I like the jeans. Everything else is too boxy for you. I like the bust area (lol) of the dress but the sleeves make you look bulky up top. The dolman sleeves are really hard to pull off. Ask me how I know

The jeans and the red and white top. Def not the dress, I'm sorry. The black top makes you look big and you are not. The skirt looks ok, but it's hard to see well.
Y'all almost convinced me to ditch the dress and keep the flying squirrel top instead. But I tried them both on again, and I really really like the dress. I will try to take pictures with better lighting next time. Or maybe y'all just really don't like it. But it really is flattering on me. I will wear a blazer over it to work. It's super cute.
Thanks for your input! I'm looking forward to my next fix!
I do not like that floral top at all. The pattern feels very 1990s department store to me. I'm also a person who likes the idea of dolman sweaters but in practice I realize they visually add weight to my frame.
