October 2015 Stitch Fix

It’s really feeling like Fall now and I am ready to get cozy in some great new wardrobe pieces this season. I loved the sweater that I received in my last fix, so I couldn’t wait to open my package for October. To be honest, I was a little disappointed as I unwrapped the white tissue paper and pulled the items out of the box. The colors weren’t colors I normally wear and a few of the styles had me questioning how good this fix was going to be. I pushed those feelings aside, opened my mind and tried everything on, because you really never know what you’ll like until you try it! I’m so glad I did!

Here’s My October Stitch Fix:

41 Hawthorn Renesme Geo Cube Print Faux Wrap Dress $78

Out all all of the items this month, this wrap dress was what I was most excited about. Wrap dresses tend to be flattering on a curvier gal like myself and comfortable too. Heading into Fall, I noticed that I don’t have very many dresses in my closet. This nice dress will be nice to wear to church or anywhere really. My stylist suggested that I wear this dress with boots, so maybe I’ll have to get a pair!

Since I like layers, I tried it on with my sweater from last month’s Stitch Fix too.

The Verdict: Kept

Moda Luxe Broadway Convertible Satchel $58

I really am not a fan of burgundy, so I wasn’t to excited about this purse. Maybe it had to do with the chunky gold accents or the fact that I just wasn’t in the mood for a new purse. I don’t know. It did have a lot of space and was similar to a purse I did keep from a Fix in the Spring that I love.

The Verdict: Returned 

Mystree Skylar Asymmetrical Knit Zip Jacket $78

I love sweaters and jackets. I like layers and I think I wear one or the other every single day from Fall until Spring and sometimes even in the summer if it’s chilly in the morning or the evenings. This asymmetrical jacket/sweater was cute, but I didn’t think it felt really cozy. It gets cold here in Western New York and I want to feel like I am snuggling up to a pretty blanket when I buy a sweater. I know that’s not what this piece was intended for, but since it’s been chilly, that’s what I’m in the mood for. It also did me no favors when it was zipped up. If the price was lower, I may have kept it for a casual piece for a warmer fall day.

The Verdict: Returned

Market & Spruce Gretta Embroidery Detail Knit Top $58

 When I first held this shirt up it looked a little plain. I do like plain, but it was so light in color and soft like my softest, favorite pair of pajamas. I wasn’t really sure how it was going to look. Well, I do like v necks and once I put this on I quickly realized that it was one of those staple type shirts that’s really comfortable and can be worn layered with several different things. The light color did make it a bit see through though and that made me feel a little self conscious. If this was a darker color I would have gladly kept this. *To my stylist- please send me the same shirt in a darker color.*

The Verdict: Returned

Daniel Rainn Fetra Scoop Neck Blouse $58

Now this shirt… Oh, boy. My 12 year old said that this was not the shirt for me. She said it looked like a grandma shirt. To be honest, I wasn’t feeling it either. I really felt like Marie Barone from Everybody Loves Raymond in it. Trust me this picture looks 1000 times better than it did in person. I get that flowy type shirts are in, but the cut was off for me and even with a large chest, this was too big and hung horribly. I think it looked okay with something over it, but I like to make sure the shirts I purchase look good and I feel good in them whether they are by themselves or layered.

The Verdict: Returned
