Let's do this Stitch Fix thing.

First of all: I did notice the typo in my blog name and I don't know how to edit that.  So I'm goingto pretend   it is quirky and cute and that I meant to do that.

Now that that's out of the way... I have really, really been wanting to try Stitch Fix since seeing reviews all over Facebook and pinterest, but I am SUPER frugal.  Finally, in a moment of weakness, I signed up for one fix.  I haven't received it yet but did get a sneak peak by googling the items on my check-out list. I am kinda disappointed.  There is one item I may really like and 4 that I didn't like from just a photo.  Maybe they'll be better in person.  But the prices seemed ridiculous for this frugal momma!  Who spends $78 on a pair of trendy distressed jeans??  Okay, probably lots of folks, but it just seems nuts to me.
So, I thought I would try an experiment.  I'm going to try to find a close substitute for each of my items at one of my go to discount stores, and see if I can't do at least as good of a job on my own as my stylist did.  Betcha I can!  Then I can order online and send myself fun, trend filled  packages that I know I like and can afford!
Stylist shmylist...who needs one.  Maybe me...stay tuned to see!
