Stitch Fix Review #3

We are working our way ever so slightly to official Spring time here in Maine – today has been the best weather so far and I am hoping against hope that it will stay that way. In fact, I am feeling spring – or warmer weather generally – so hard that I’ve just booked another Fix for next week. And I’m thinking back to Fix #3 of mine that was actually from last March. D: I’m going to shoot for getting all my Fix posts up before it comes this week…. let’s see if I can do it!

For Fix #3 I recall that I requested some light wash jeans and a bomber to fit in to the season and here is what I received!

2017-03-23 20.59.25Piece #1: Sam Hi-Lo Short Sleeve by Market & Spruce

I love this top! It’s a nice loose and super soft fabric. Who doesn’t like that?! It’s a great spring tee and I have worn it many many times since deciding to purchase. It is my go-to casual dress up or down shirt for work, date, and casual outings. I highly recommend it – and could even go for another.

Piece #2: Sarina Lace Back Detail Blouse by Your Story

This top is a great date option. It’s a lower scooping neckline, it’s BLACK which is probably my favorite color, and it’s a tank top. Plus the back is so detailed and beautiful with a lace element, I couldn’t say no. It was a Keeper, pretty much instantly.

 

2017-03-23 20.58.34Piece #3: Leena Printed Skirt by Renee C

I loved the print of this skirt right out of the box. However… when I put it on I realized it was a fair shade too big as a Large, but that was on me! I had Large selected for skirts in my style profile. I considered their option of sending this one in as an exchange to see if I could get a Medium, but blammo! There were none in stock. What’s a girl to do?! Since (spoiler alert) this was the only piece that I wasn’t enamored with from the box, I finally decided to go for it and keep all 5 to cash in on the additional discount of 25% for buying all 5. An upside was that with the fabric the skirt was made of I was reasonably sure if I kept drying it in the dryer I could get it down to a good size. And I have up to this point! Success – it all worked out. :)

Piece #4: Adrianne Distressed Boyfriend Jean by Cosmic Blue Love

So to deliver on my request for a lighter wash jean, my stylist sent me these amazing jeans that are lightly distressed and I have been loving them ever since. They are a great addition to my casual wardrobe (can’t wear hole-y jeans at work -_-) and I wear them for a ton of weekend errands and such. The denim is so soft and slips on like a glove – I suggest checking this brand out. They had me checking for ways to buy more of their jeans every which place on the internet, lol. Needless to say – I kept them!

 

Piece #5: Richelle Bomber Jacket by Noisy May

 

Last but not least yo! This army green bomber was my favorite piece of the Fix. It is such a versatile piece that I’ve been able to use a ton in Maine, because frankly for me, even when it’s ‘hot’ outside it’s a little chilly. It’s the native Texan in me coming out, but hey! it is what it is. It also looks really high quality and chic without breaking your wallet and making you wince a bit. Love it. I think it may come in a few different colors but I can’t confirm it. I feel like I’ve seen a rose pink one around on the town if you’re into that! This piece fulfilled my second request and was definitely a keeper.

 

In summary, this was the first Fix where I bought all five and cashed in on the discount. Like I mentioned above, I had some doubts about the skirt, but since it was a particular fabric I decided to take a chance on shrinking it in the dryer. In retrospect, I really think the 25% discount on all 5 was worth saving a little money and gaining another piece. I will say the skirt fits a lot better now, whether thanks to my drying efforts or my body shape I’m not sure which but I’m okay with it!

I’ll try to work on review #4 tomorrow and get that up for you fashion enthusiasts. ‘Til then!
