My first stitch fix arrived on Friday and OMG– Rose is in the right profession!  I was in such a style slump for the longest time–Not even sure of my own style anymore.  This little box of fresh air has lifted my mood and spirit!

Haven’t heard of Stitch Fix before? Stitch Fix is an AMAZING innovative styling service that pairs real stylists with online clients, sending you 5 handpicked pieces each Fix that your stylist thinks you will love. You fill out a style profile online and provide detailed feedback for each piece you are sent– indicating why you chose to keep each item it or return it. With each fix, your stylist learns a little bit more about you to tailor-make your fixes to fit your style.  They also review your pinterest board for extra inspiration!  You get to decide how often you’d like to receive a fix… once a month? every three months? only on demand? it all works.  Postage is free and if you decide to keep nothing, all you pay is the $20 styling fee.  If you decide to keep one item? You get credit for the styling fee already paid! If you keep everything? $20 credit AND 25% off.  Lottery!

Quite truly– as a working mom, this service is just what I needed to keep my look fresh without having to devote the time to shopping.

So, without further ado… Tell me what you think!!!!  The clothes came in the cutest little box and wrapping.  I opened the packet and was immediately excited!!! EEEKKK!!!!! The colors and fabrics were gorgeous!

First up:  41Hawthorn Jace Dot Print Fit & Flare Dress.   Ethan had plenty of funny things to say concerning my request for him to take pictures of me in these clothes.  HA! Regardless— what do you think of this dress?  Immediately– I was amazed at how comfortable it is.  I could sleep in this dress.  I loved the fun little dots, but also loved the fact that the pattern wasn’t too distracting.  I am really happy that the dress is knee-length… i can wear it to work!  I’m slightly concerned that the pleats make me look pregnant.  I asked my stylist for a dress that I could pack easily and wouldn’t wrinkle for dinners out in Europe on my honeymoon.  I think she did well!  I also liked the fun colors that Rose suggested in the stylist cards. Thoughts?

Status: KEPT! I wore this to work and got a gazillion (that a lot) compliments.  I’m so happy about my new dress! YAHOO! 

NEXT:… 41Hawthorn Moni Abstract Chevron Stud Detail Blouse.    

Look at these cute lil’ sleeves!!! LOVE. I have to admit— I wasn’t sold on this blouse right away.  thought it looked a bit “mature” for my taste and I don’t think I could wear it to work.  I put it on, however, and liked it much more.  I love how comfortable and flow-y the fabric is. I really liked the cute sleeves… super adorable.  I do not like how sheer it is. I would need to wear a tank top under it and in Utah heat— i don’t want to wear more layers than I have to.  I could see myself wearing this. Thoughts?

Status: KEPT! I wore this to work tucked into a pair of tan slacks.  It tucked in well and looked awesome! I love the lightness of the fabric.  Seriously– SWOON. 

Next is a Two-fer!!!   Brixon Ivy Coco Swiss Dot Lattice Detail Blouse AND Margaret M Emer High Waisted Cropped Trowser Pants

I love love loved these pants from the second I put them on.  They are super stretchy and comfortable.  I hate being uncomfortable at work so this was a huge plus.  I also really like the ankle length… I think it’s cute in summer and works well with boots in the winter.  I want these pants in every color!!!! Regarding the blouse– I thought the lattice work was super cute and I loved the dots.  I’m a bit worried that the color washes me out and I don’t think it would work for work-attire.  What do you think?  I really liked both of these pieces!

Status: KEPT (both)!!!  The pants are AMAZING.– It’s like wearing sweatpants to work.  Who doesn’t love that?!   And the blouse was so comfortable.  I love that it came with the layering tank underneath.  

LAST— Collective Concepts Lydia Floral Print Key-Hole Blouse.

I immediately LOVED this blouse before I even put it on my body.  I absolutely love the colors and the print.  I thought the keyhole was adorbs.  I wanted so badly to love it on my body.

That being said, I’m worried it is a bit TOO loose in the waist.  I’m worried it makes me look fat.  Regardless— don’t tell me if it makes me look fat because I already ripped the tags off and wore it last night. 😛

Status: KEPT (duh… I spoiled the ending for you!).  I’ve worn this to work twice already.  I seriously love the keyhole, color, and detail.  

Love,

Sam
