I received my second Stitch Fix and loved it!!
Here's what I got:
Item: I loved the pattern in this Collective Concepts black and gold medallion blouse. However, the gold straps kinda pinched my skin and pulled my hair (because it was a little chain like). It also was a little big under the arms.
Opinion: I liked it, but didn't LOVE it. It was cute by itself (especially with gold hoops, skinny jeans and black sandals), but I couldn't wear it to work and it did not look right with a cardigan over it.
Verdict: Returned.
Item: Margaret M Pencil Skirt.
Opinion: As soon as I pulled this one out of the box I loved it. The patter, colors and everything. You can't see from the picture very well, but it was navy with gold and burgundy undertones. Very versatile. I could wear it in the summer with a cream sleeveless blouse, dress it up with a neutral colored blazer, or soften the look in the winter with a cream sweater. It looks amazing with flats or heels. The length is perfect.
Verdict: It was a bit snug. I contacted StitchFix and they have it in the next size up. I am exchanging it for the next size. Kept!!
Item: Just Black Skinny Jean in Navy
Opinion: If I would have looked at the price of these jeans before putting them on, I would have never tried them. However, they fit like a GLOVE. They were super stretching and felt like jeggings with a well-made look. They are ankle length (I love that SF has petite sizes!!). Let me just say again how comfortable and flattering they were. I mean, hugged my curves just right!
Verdict: I would not normally pay the price for these jeans, but they are extremely comfy and I feel like I will get my wear out of them. Also, I haven't bought jeans in a long while.... Kept! (trying not to have buyers guilt with this one!)
Item: 41Hawthorn Pleated Blouse in Turquoise
Opinion: While this top fit good, and I loved the color and the fact that I could wear it year round with shorts, jeans, dress slacks, capris, skirts etc... Something about the neck line was kinda weird and I didn't just LOVE it enough to keep it.
Verdict: Returned.
Item: Gilli Maxi Dress
Opinion: As soon as I laid my hands on this I knew it was a keeper unless it just plainly didn't fit right. The fabric was SOOOOOOOO soft!! I loved the way it has the t-shirt/jersey material at the top and the flowy/stretchy feel of the bottom. I was very nervous about the length, because I usually can not buy maxis because they are a foot too long. The length was perfect. I am also obsessed with the top of this dress because it fit so well. I am very small chested (thanks to breastfeeding x2....). But the way this drapes over my boobs it very flattering. The colors are also very "me." I love corals and turquoise. I thought it would be great too in the fall with a jean jacket or tan blazer/cardigan, or even a tan leather jacket, with booties and clunky turquoise jewelry.
Verdict: If you can't tell from my description, this one was a keeper. :)
PS: I wore this dress yesterday and received a ton of compliments! Thanks StitchFix (or Hannah, my stylist)!
