It’s here! My June Stitch Fix Review is finally here and you have got to see what came in this month’s Stitch Fix box. You may recall from last month that I wanted to try out a new stylist, just so I could share a fresh person with you that has more availability than my regular stylist. I’m happy to let you know that my “guest stylist” returned for a second fix and she did a wonderful job. This month’s fix had a little bit of everything: a casual top, jeans, a dressy blouse, a maxi dress and shoes! You may have caught the sneak peek video I shared yesterday on the blog. I’m overjoyed to finally share photos of what’s inside along with my complete June Stitch Fix review. This post contains affiliate links.
You’ll definitely want to read all the way to the end of this month’s fix because I’m collaborating with several other amazing Stitch Fix bloggers to bring you a $700 Stitch Fix gift card giveaway. That’s right! $700! Let’s get this party started so you can see my styles and get yourself entered in that giveaway. I also included affiliate links throughout this post to help you easily recreate any of the looks you see featured in my June Stitch Fix review.
Stazi Lace Shoulder Knit Top
When I laid eyes on the Stazi Lace Shoulder Knit Top from Loveapella ($48), I was immediately intrigued. It’s basically a t-shirt with lace at the shoulders and it was really soft! Sometimes on the weekends I look into my closet for something casual to wear that doesn’t make me look like a bum and I come up short. This top was the perfect solution to that fashion dilemma. It’s causal and comfortable and totally looks like I tried without having to be overdone.
I kept the accessories casual for this outfit too. I wore my mother of pearl Cami necklace from Kendra Scott and a Nakamol beaded wrap bracelet (similar here). With a simple pair of ankle strap sandals and the Level 99 Jeans that also came in my fix (more info on those in a minute), this was a great casual outfit.
This top also had the most lovely lace trim around the shoulders. It was just enough to be a fun decorative element, without having to worry about catching things randomly on the lace.
This top was fabulous and it definitely caught my eye. Unfortunately, it was a little too small. I recently changed my shirt size preferences from small to extra-small because a blog reader suggested it may be a helpful solution to the oversize armhole problems I often have. I thought the idea was pure genius (and I still do think it’s a good idea judging by how big some of my size small drapey blouses are). Unfortunately, this t-shirt was a little more fitted than my usual taste and the horizontal stripes made me nervous for a flattering fit, even if I did size up. I opted to return the top, but it certainly was lovely.
The Stazi Lace Shoulder Knit Top looked great with the lighter wash denim and my new metallic sandals were the perfect footwear to accent the look. They also have a great price!
So let’s talk about those jeans…
Shauna Skinny Jean
I was also overjoyed to find that Leslie included a lighter wash pair of jeans in this month’s fix. I own several pair of Level 99 pants and 2 pair of jeans from my previous fixes, so I had a feeling that this pair of Shauna Skinny Jean from Level 99 ($118) was going to be an instant keeper.
I adored the color and really liked that the jeans had some light distressing without looking like they had recently been destroyed.
I also really like the pocket design on Level 99 jeans.
Technically the pants fit and they had good stretch, but the style was a little tighter than I prefer. They were quite snug and not exactly the fit I’ve been looking for. I considered asking for a larger size, but I’m pretty sure the Shauna Skinny Jean fit the way they were intended since they were the same size as all my other Level 99 jeans and pants. So I’m still on the lookout for the perfect lighter wash jeans that are a slim fit but not quite so tight.
Queenie Lace Overlay Blouse
The third item Leslie included in my June Stitch Fix box was a Queenie Lace Overlay Blouse from Lavender Brown ($118). I love lace in neutral shades, but I wasn’t so sure about the bright blue blouse that came my way.
Like the striped knit top, this blouse also was an extra small. It fit great and the armholes were the perfect size.
I styled the blouse with the Emer High Waisted Tall Trouser pants from Margaret M that came in my 16th fix. I also wore a pair of black round toe pumps (similar here), the bracelet from my wedding, and a few different crystal necklaces (bargain here, splurge here).
After trying on a t-shirt and jeans that were tighter than I felt comfortable wearing, this outfit made me feel much more slender. The Emer pants offer a great tailored fit and they really elongate my shape when paired with black heels.
The blouse had a great and flattering fit, but I’m always more comfortable with a pair of sleeves on my arms. I added a dressy black cardigan to the outfit and it was the perfect conservative touch to soften the look.
As pretty as the blouse was, I decided to send it back. I love lacy things, but the bright blue lace top was just a little too bold for my taste. I was surprised about how much I enjoyed wearing the outfit for a few minutes, but I also know that every time I get dressed up for a special event, I will always choose a conservative blouse that I feel more comfortable wearing than one that doesn’t quite feel like me.

After trying on three items, I still hadn’t decided to keep anything from this fix. The good news is that I did decide to keep one item from my June Stitch Fix shipment.

Paula@SweetPea says
The maxi dress looks great on you and I know that you’ll really enjoy wearing it this summer.

I feel we have similar styles. I am pretty conservative with how I dress but started using Stitch Fix to help me branch out and a little “pep” to my wardrobe. I prefer loose (but not baggy or too flowy) tops. It’s tough because I don’t want things to be too tight but I also don’t want things to look sloppy. I found that tops were big initially as well with Stitch Fix, so I changed my fit from “loose” to “straight”. I was nervous, but it worked well for me.
Maria Gavin says
That is really good advice! I will update my profile. Thanks!
Kristin says
I think the blue blouse looked best and the color looks great on every complexion including yours
jessica says
I’m so glad you kept the maxi! I love it and it looks great with the denim jacket!
I think the bright blue looks great on you, and you should venture into brighter colors more.
Thanks for hosting the link-up!
Sarah Cole says
I love love love the Kaleia Maxi Dress outfit! Super cute!
Michele says
The shoes are on sale at Nordstrom right now! 40% off!
Michele says
I think the Loveappella top is really cute! But I totally understand that how something looks in the picture isn’t necessarily how it feels on. Love that you found a way to make the maxi work! And great tip on those Rampage sandals!
Leslie says
I love the color of the blue lace top. It looked great on you. You’re right though about getting things caught in lace, I seem to snag all of my tops with lace. Denim jackets certainly do have a way of pulling outfits together. Yours looks great with that maxi dress and I love the necklace you accessorized it with.
Megan says
I love the maxi dress and the stacked heel sandals!! I think I need between an X-small and Small in some Stitch Fix sizes as well! Thanks for the giveaway! You and your husband have inspired me to look into Dave Ramsey – I hope I win the giveaway so I don’t have to give up new clothes ;)!
Bernice Wolen says
Gorgeous dress! I agree that the jean jacket transforms and makes the oufit, great styling.
Melissa C. says
The blue lace is absolutely stunning on you! Obviously you have to be comfortable in what you wear but WOW :-D I agree with the previous commentor, you should consider branching out into brighter colors! I love Stitch Fix for pushing me out of my comfort zone.
Renee says
I love those shoes, I may have to find them for myself! I think you made the right choice on the dress, especially for the summer.
Connie says
I am happy to see that you kept the dress. It looked great on you … especially paired with the jacket. And, your reviews help me understand that it is “okay” to be picky and only keep one thing!
Maria Gavin says
It is ABSOLUTELY ok to be picky! And it’s better for your budget :)
Lisamarie says
I don’t get the keeping one thing I would want to keep everything that’s why I do golden tote and mixandmatchbox.com you buy the box for practically what it costs for a pair of jeans at stitch fix and if everything fits u get a far better deal
Christine Blair says
I really like that lace top on you but it is a bit pricey. You always look good in all your items, lucky girl
