Fix Number Six

Hi y'all! I requested that this fix have some dressier pieces in it because my closet was struggling with outfits to wear to meetings and church. My stylist, Emily, delivered quite well. All of the pieces go well together in the same palate so I could wear them together or with other pieces already in my closet.

Drop Earrings $28.00 - Keep

Very chic and not over stated and compliment everything. I'm hoping these won't be too much of an attraction for Reagan.

Milan Lace Print Back Pleat Top $58.00 - Keep

Love this for fall. Its very flowy so I can wear it in early Texas fall (aka still blazing hot), but still layer it when it gets chilly out.

Marlena Abstract Print Tab Sleeve Blouse $48.00 - Keep

I really like the color on this blouse and I think it goes well with my skin tone. I like the pop of pink so that I can coordinate with some of Reagan's dresses.

Kaleigh Ankle Biter Skinny Jean - $88.00 - send back

I really wanted these to work, but they are just too big. This is not StitchFix's fault, but I've been so diligent about getting to the gym that I'm toning up more. But I'm going to look around to see if I can find something similar elsewhere.

Sloane Colorblock A-Line Ponte Shift Dress $78.00 - Keep

Love love love this dress. First, who doesn't love a shift dress? So classic. Secondly, the color block on this dress was spot on. I like that it is trendy, but not over the top that I won't be able to wear it after the trend has passed.

Some of y'all saw this outfit on my Instagram. I wore it as soon as I opened the box!

WAYNE SWISS DOT & FLORAL TIE-NECK BLOUSE $68.0

 Awesome color, fits really well on me - not too tight, but still doesn't destroy my figure

AIDEN ANKLE LENGTH SKINNY JEAN $98.00 

These looked great on me! I was really surprised, but I loved them. Since I'm petite the fit like a regular jean length as opposed the ankle, but I'm ok with that. 

ALECIA ABSTRACT PRINT MAXI DRESS

$68.00

$68.00

The abstract print didn't line up in the back so it made half of my butt look HUGE! Disappointed because I really liked how it looked from the front and I liked the style.

BENFELD TIERED COLOBLOCKED MINI SKIRT $44.0

This looked awful on me. It made my thighs appear bigger than what the were and the top two tiers again accentuated my mommy pooch. 

NIMA SWISS DOT CINCHED WAIST SILK BLOUSE $78.0

The waist of this hit be straight where I carry all of my weight. It accentuated my mommy tummy instead of camouflage. I liked the fabric and pattern so I was really disappointed.

 Overall, I was pretty disappointed in this fix. 3 out of 5 pieces didn't fit my shape and the price of this box was more than they have been previously. BUT! The first outfit I loved so much and it really made the fix worth it. I've already scheduled my next fix. Thanks to all of y'all that used my referral link to sign up. I really appreciate it!

StitchFix número dos

Hi y'all, at this point I'm thinking that signing up for this was the smartest thing I have ever done. After my checkout from my last box I gave 2 points of feedback: 1. I need some tops

2. I want some color

So my box came yesterday and I got exactly what I asked for. I think I'm going to keep all 5 and take advantage of the discount! 

Here is a fashion show in iPhone pictures 

The stripes in this are purple, coral and mint - a fun take on chevron. 

Lurve this top. This pink is *my color* it looks great on me. It's also a fun take on chevron. 

Crochet back grey tank. Something I wouldn't probably ever try on, but I loved it! 

This top is even better in person and more red than it looks here. Love how it crosses - so light and flowy. 

Last but not least is this mint and grey striped maxi skirt. I wore it here with a navy tank, but there's another top I can't wait to wear it with.... You know - after I get that hem altered. #shortgirlproblems 

Hope y'all liked my review! If you'd like to try out a box for yourself, I would love it if you would use my referral link!

My First Fix!

I'll admit it, my closet is nothing to be admired and I'm awful when it comes to shopping for and dressing myself. Like, really bad - so bad in fact that I often buy outfits exactly like they are on the mannequin. I just do not have that eye for fashion. 

When my AEA moms started talking about StitchFix my interest piqued. A stylist service? Just for me? Not some automated trashy shoe service? This sounds fun. So, with a hint of skeptism I filled out the profile. I got excited when it asked if I was a mother, and on occupation it listed homemaker (gasp). At the bottom it had a place to write a note to my stylist and I let them know that I was looking for items I could breastfeed in. 

So, here's what came in my box:

2 tops, a canvas tote, mint maxi dress and a black and oatmeal diagonal stripped maxi skirt. 

Not pictured is my favorite part of the box - "style cards" that picture both a casual and a dressy way to style each item. EXACTLY what I need. If I would have kept all 5 items they would have averaged 39.5/item (including tax, 25% off discount and $20 styling fee) 

I really, really love the two tops. The one with the pink accents is more of a lightweight cardigan. I wore it today for our picnic at the park with a nursing cami underneath, and those sweet buttons popped right open when I went to nurse Reagan. But it worked great and was super cute on. 

I wasn't a fan of the tote. It's cute, I'm just over flowing with bags around here and it was too deep for my taste. 

I really liked the dress, I actually own 3 very similar to it, but the independent price rage was $78 and I had a hard time justifying it. 

The maxi skirt was cute, but I felt kinda meh about it. I didn't have to have it so I passed. 

Here's what I wore today 

If you decide to sign up for a box it's very low risk. No obligation for a monthly box - super easy to cancel and/or change your delivery schedule. I'd love if you'd use my referral link.
