It all really comes down to which tales you believe. We see both in our culture as kind playful spirits, but the cultures that they came from they were equally feared as they are loved by our own.
The fey in general are devious and cunning. Elves and fairies both fall under this. Traditionally, they are single individuals that have been disturbed or called upon to grant wishes. I would not cross swords with them or mix words as they are excel at using words with double meaning. Tradition holds they would not kill you, but the punishments they gave out for offences were extreme.
Pixies are more like sprites. Spirits of the woodlands that seek only to have fun but vengeful if crossed because they attack in packs. In lore you see them in groups and attacking as a group for one that might have been injured or whatnot. Individually, they are weak and easy to defeat.

Fairies are more powerful. Pixies are dantier. They both appear as women though. I'm an empowered woman, so I prefer fairies myself.

Fairies... cuz in my (imaginative) mind, they are bigger and have stronger "powers". They have the power over bigger stuff... but Pixies.. again.. in my mind, would probably be able to make smaller changes.
Odd subject, but fun to think of :)

I like pixies better. Fairies hang out in bad bars, wear bright clothing, dance to "it's raining men", and talk with that lisp.
Pixies are real studly.
