I've enjoyed adding pieces and styles to my wardrobe that I never would have picked out for myself but actually look great on me. I will warn you, though, that it can take a couple of Fixes before they're able to hone in on your style and get the sizing right. I sent back the majority of my first two Fixes (I think I only kept one item out of the first two shipments) because either the sizing was off or I just hated the clothes. My third Fix was a home run, and it's been so fun ever since.

CJ2008|1446589793|3945307 said:So star, do you feel they got your style/look right after a few tries?
What is the quality of the clothing?
(do you think you could post a picture of some the outfits they sent you? Only if you're 100% OK with this - I realize you might have a totally different sense of style then me, but I am just so curious to see what someone else pulled together!)

Star - thank you so much for answering all my questions! I might actually just have to try this (I kind of love that they HAVE to read and listen to the feedback - it's the only way this business is going to work!)

I'm in the (horrible, long, slow) process of losing baby weight, and I think once I hit a certain mini-goal I'll reward myself with a subscription.

I never personally linked them to a Pinterest board, but I can see how that would be super helpful! Maybe it wouldn't have taken so long for them to figure out my style if I had done that.
When you first sign up, they also ask how adventurous you're willing to be with your wardrobe. Ie, how willing are you to try things OUTSIDE of your style. That could be fun someday.

CJ2008|1446662354|3945669 said:star, so those are the actual items that they sent you?
And they show each item with some ideas for how to wear them?
Like for skinny jeans they're showing you 2 different ways to pair them up, right? (and then you look in your closet to see if you have items that resemble it, or at least you get inspired to try it in the way they show it...)
Wow - I'm tempted to try it just for the color coordination. I LOVE unexpected color combinations. I am not that good at doing color.

So if you get something that doesn't fit the only option is to return (or keep and alter?)

Interesting. I found it to be on the large side! All the stuff they were sending at the beginning in what I thought was my size was too big on me!
