Stitch Fix #10 Review

I've had some pretty hit or miss fixes from Stitch Fix.  I've tried not leaving notes for my stylist to keep it up to her and I've tried leaving notes, but I always felt like they weren't read.  I had the same stylist for 3 or 4 fixes, but then requested someone new.  And since then I've gotten a different stylist each time.  But I think I've found her!  Megan rocked it!

I was a little apprehensive before this fixed arrived.  When I peeked online at what I was getting, I was not impressed, but it turned out better than I expected.  My only complaint was the lack of color.  I left a note for my stylist telling her that I have been looking for bootcut jeans, colored skinnies, a vest and would love to try the Margaret M pants that I've heard great things about.  Here's what I received:

Item #1 - Market and Spruce Margerie Stripe & Dot Open Cardigan $68

I'm pretty sure Market & Spruce is a Stitch Fix in house brand.  It has ruching across the lower back to give it some shape.  Honestly, I LOVE this cardigan!  It's lightweight, so great for fall and spring in St. Louis.  But, it is very similar to another open cardigan that Stitch Fix sent me in March of this year.  It's the exact same colors.  I like this one more than the other one, but how many blue and white striped open cardigans do I need?  It does seem a little pricey considering how light weight it is.  Decisions, decisions.  

Item #2 - Sanctuary Elton Mixed Knit Hooded Sweatshirt $54

This is made very well.  From this picture, it looks like something I could easily find anywhere, but it has some details that make it unique.  I'm not loving this sweater though.  It's a little too boxy on me and the hood is really large.  I'm not feeling this one.    

Item #3 - 41 Hawthorne Trip Longsleeve Colorblock Sweater $58

Kind of not feeling this one either.  I'm usually not a fan of colorblocking, but this one isn't bad.  The beginning of the black seems to hit in just the wrong spot so that I feel like I look pregnant.  The thinness of this sweater makes it appear shapeless on me.  41 Hawthorne is a Stitch Fix brand.

Item #4 - Pixley Dalila Faux Leather Lapel French Terry Vest $68

 

Yes!  I love this!  And it makes me like the colorblock sweater more.  When I saw that I was receiving a faux leather vest, I was frustrated because my style profile says no leather and no pleather.  But, really, this is perfect.  My stylist gave me tons of suggestions on how to wear it.  I can't wait to try it out!  Pixley is also a Stitch Fix brand.

Item #5 - Kut From the Kloth Denna Colored Skinny Jean $78

These are pictured above with the colorblock sweater and vest.  When I asked for colored skinnies, I wasn't picturing olive.  They fit well, are pretty comfortable and will go with a ton of clothes I already have.  Keeper!

Overall, I really enjoyed this fix.  Should I talk myself into keeping the open cardigan?  I love it, but I don't need it.  We'll see what happens!

Planners from inkWELL PRESS

For months, I've been frustrated with the calendar on my phone.  It just doesn't do the things I want it to do - or organize the way I need it to.  So I've been pondering the idea of a paper planner.  It seems so out of date, but I knew that I would be able to find one that could combine many of my lists.  It would hold my calendar, my to-do list for short term and long-term items, meal planning, etc.  I was hoping a good planner would simplify my planning.  Enter inkWELL PRESS.

These planners are gorgeous!
