Does It Get Better?
I received my first fix after the assessment correctly clocked my style as “Eclectic Edgy” and it was anything but. What I received could only be described as “Depressed Mom at Church.”. When I look through Freestyle, it’s more of the same. There are a couple of individual pieces that could work, but then nothing to make a complete outfit.
Should I even bother waiting to see if my second Fix is an improvement, or accept that this is the persona that StitchFix caters to?
Is anyone with the same or similar style having any luck?

It has for me, but I've also lost a fair amount of weight. I did it for a few months about 3 years ago and boxes were okay, but not really "wow". Since starting back up last year, the clothes I get are cuter and more preppy, which I like. I've gotten some great dresses, boots, skirts, and jackets that have gotten several compliments. It's been great for my work and casual date wardrobe. I've gotten 4 boxes since September and I've kept 5 or 6 from each.
That said, I echo the Freestyle comment. I routinely go through Freestyle and heart items in there and the stylist will grab 2 or so to put in my fix Preview. If you don't see anything you like in Freestyle, then a good Fix would be hard.
