MY SECOND STITCH FIX

Ahhh... StitchFix numero dos! Eeek! So excited! It's rather addicting this StitchFix business! But things like this really do perk a girl up! Who needs gluten when ya got fashion?


So for those of you who don't know.... StitchFix is an online personal shopping experience! You get your own stylist who handpicks 5 items just for you! There's a $20 styling fee but it's credit towards your fix! And if you decided to keep everything in your box there's a 25% discount! But if you only like one or two things, it's free return shipping!

This time I had Jackie for a stylist! (Thought immediately went to the one and only Jackie O!) I love the personal little note she wrote for me!

"I had a great time styling for you today! I love the polka dot top by DownEast! Pair the Daniel Rainn top with skinny jeans and cute flats. The Peppermint dress has a preppy chevron print and is perfect for spring/summer! Have fun and I hope to style again for you! xo Jackie" 

Things like that really make ya smile! And it just makes a girl feel special to know that these really were picked just for me!


DownEast Tobi Cropped Lurex Cardigan - $58
Okay, first item on the list: DownEast Tobi Cropped Lurex Cardigan at a whopping $58




 Okay, This isn't really my style. I thought I would absolutely hate it but it wasn't so bad on. This is an extreme maybe. Main thing is: Do I really want to spend $58 on something I'm not crazy about? I'm not made of money people! I decided not to keep this one. 
Peppermint Dorthy Chevron Printed Dress - $58

 Alright, next on the list: The beautiful Peppermint Dorthy Chevron Printed Dress


  Okay, now this was the item that immediately drew my attention! I love patterns and chevron is one of my favorites! But thing is... this dress had such a weird fit. It felt awkward on top and great on the bottom. Looking at the photos... it looks good on top but awkward and bunchy on the bottom. Figures. But I love the cut in the back! Low backs are my weaknesses! I ended up keeping this dress - no regrets so far!



Moving on... the next thing was very pricey! Daniel Rainn Miri Crochet Detailed Sleeveless Top at a ridiculous $78.00!! What? Does money grown on trees somewhere?! 















































Sadly I love love love this top! This is me to a T! I only put it with two skirts in the photos but I can imagine a million kajillion outfits with this top! And the fabric was so soft! Grrrr... WHY ARE YOU SO EXPENSIVE! .... and yes, I really am that awkward haha. But alas, I did not keep this item. 



Okay... the next thing is a pretty necklace! Thank you for the 41Hawthorn Triple Layer Bubble Necklace for $38.00! 



Ain't she a beauty? It's the cheapest thing on here but yowsa $38.00 for a necklace? But it went great with the cute chevron dress they sent me! But I can't decide whether to keep it or not. I mean, I already have 4 bubble necklaces but I don't have a pretty pink/peach one! And they've already got my twenty bucks! But I didn't keep it. Hope I made the right choice!


And last but not least is the DownEast Banks Sheer Dot Peter Pan Collar Top for $48.00





 

Now this isn't my usual style but I loved it when I unfolded it! And I loved it in the mirror! I felt cute and chic! Maybe a tad 50's stepford? Definitely felt preppy! But then the photos... whoa. I'm not so sure I love it anymore. I'm trying to keep it in perspective: I am just getting past a seriously rough cold/sinus infection so the Swollen Face Syndrome isn't permanent but still... I don't know if I'm a fan of this top. And I so so so wanted to be! I think the main things was the sheer material with the polka dots. I love sheer shirts. I love polka dotted shirts. I do not love sheer polka dotted shirts. The collar was adorable and the sleeves were just too cute! But I just couldn't keep it - back to SanFran it goes!

So that's it! That's my second StitchFix! And wowsa... pricey pricey pricey! Time to switch down to the cheapest bracket! But overall I was happy with it!
