Stitch Fix #2

A few months has passed since I received my first Stitch Fix box in the mail, and I had the itch for another! I find the whole process really fun. Here's what they sent me this time!



Street Level Anchorage Diamond Printed Tote - $64
Verdict: I love the look of this, and I'm in the market for a new tote that I can use for travel instead of a backpack (I'm trying NOT to look 16 when we go on our honeymoon.) It therefore needs to fit my laptop-- and it did-- but it warped the bag's shape in a way I didn't like. I think I'm going to look for a fully vegan leather option. Sent back.


Hourglass Lily Stanley Diamond Print Hi-Lo Jersey shirt - $48
I wasn't sure about this at first, and I'm still not quite sure about the pattern. But I LOVE the fit and the keyhole in the back. Kept.


Renee C Landry Printed Cross-Front Blouse - $58
Verdict: I LOVE the shape and pattern on this, but it was just entirely too big and unflattering. You might need actual boobs for it to work. Sent back.


 Kut from the Kloth Aviva Cuffed Straight Boyfriend Jeans - $78
I have never owned boyfriend jeans. They are usually too long and too wide and make me look like an actual 12 year old boy, not a sexy grown woman in her significant other's jeans. These, however, are great! They are a slimmer cut for a boyfriend, really comfy, and I like the length with booties. Kept.


Collective Concepts Reanne Cap Sleeve Polka Dot Dress - $78
I so wanted this to work. It actually fit and was the right length, but I didn't love how it sat across my midsection or the cap sleeves. Then Tony asked me if I was keeping the "Mickey Mouse Dress." Sent back.

Here's me wearing the items I kept (minus my face, which was a blotchy mess this day!)

Stitch Fix #1 and Spring Lookbook

HELLO.

Jeez, it's been a long time. I apologize. March was crazy (excuses, excuses.) Anyway, I have been planning to share this little post with you for a while. You may or may not have seen the Spring Lookbook video I posted last week on beautifullybookish. And you may or may not have noticed a few of the items I'm wearing are from Stitch Fix. That's because it was my birthday on March 29 (I'm 27! Eek!) and I decided to treat myself to a Fix.

I feel like bloggers know about Stitch Fix, but in case you don't: it's an online-based personal styling service that sends you a box of clothing and accessory goodies whenever you request one! You keep what you love, and send back what you don't. Here's a look at what I received in my first Fix: 

Everything comes beautifully packaged with a personal note from a stylist.


 The breakdown:

 
41Hawthorn Topher Lurex Striped Fit & Flare Dress - $78
Verdict: Cute, but a bit long on me (often a problem.) Would be a great work dress with a blazer, but I work from home sooo... I wear leggings and pajamas ;) Sent back.


Sanctuary Rizzo Skinny Ponte Pants - $88
Verdict: really cute and comfy, but very long and a little big on me. Very similar to my J. Crew pixi pants, but did not fit as well. Sent back.


Loveappella Denise Stripe & Dot Print Dolman Top - $48
Verdict: SO my style and fit beautifully! Kept.



41Hawthorn Colibri Solid Tab Sleeeve Blouse - $48
Verdict: A little long (seeing a trend here? It's tough to be 5'1") but I love the color and style. Kept.


Pomelo Aleah V-Neck Heathered Dolman Sleeve Shirt - $48
Verdict: I love a good dolman. This is great for comfy, casual days. Kept.

Do you guys like the items I received? I did! If you'd like to see them on me and see how I styled the items I kept, make sure you check out my Spring Lookbook video here:
