I've only gotten two boxes from StitchFix so far and have bought one item from each box. I would have bought two out of each box if they fit. It's like Christmas every time I get a new box, and I love surprises, as well as trying things I normally wouldn't even look at in the store.

My problem: I don't think the stylists who work there actually get to look at the clothing up close and personal. I said I don't like floppy, shapeless tops and I've gotten two shapeless tops and one shapeless sweater thus far. It seems like they shop from a website, if there are even stylists. Who knows? It could be some database deciding what to put in your box.

Every box, I've gone back and changed my profile a bit to add more details, and have been consistently adding things to the Pinterest page I linked them to. It seems to be working. The second box was a little more spot-on than the first.

Either way, it's fun and I love the items I've purchased. Worth it if you end up getting at least one item and if you like the lottery, it's worth the risk of possibly losing $20 a month.

*PS They do charge your account the $20 about 7-8 days before your fix is due to arrive, so be aware of that. Sizing is pretty true to measurement, so be sure to get your measurements and sizes right. You can't exchange an item you like for a different size, unfortunately.*

I definitely know my way around a kitchen, but started to get tired of having so many leftovers or wasting food because I had to buy more than I needed.

Then, Blue Apron saved the day. I thought the price was a bit steep at first, but after thinking about how much I was spending on food that was going to waste, it made sense to pay about $10 a person per meal.

The ingredients are super fresh, perfectly portioned (no guess work and hardly any measuring is required), and the recipes are easy to follow. They give every step in detail, so even if you're not completely confident in the kitchen, it will seem like you are! The ingredients come packed in ice packs, so if it's dropped off while you're at work, everything will still be chilled when you get home.

It's helping me pair ingredients that I never would have thought of, and it's the perfect amount for two people. The dishes tend to be around 500-700 calories per serving, so if you're a calorie counter, make sure you save up earlier in the day for these. They're worth it!

My only qualm? I wish there was a little more variety with their proteins, but I understand that they need to stay with things people are more familiar with. :)

Note: My boyfriend actually said he wishes he had known about this before our first date so he would have seemed like a more talented cook, so if you're looking to wow someone, put down the takeout, steer away from the expensive restaurant, and try this.

SO FAR from a scam!
