It finally happened. Last week I inched a little closer to 40 and a little further from 30. If I have to estimate my age, I now have to go with 40. And I'm ok with it. But I'll be honest, it takes a minute to be ok with it. Sometimes it takes a minute AND a glass of wine. AND other times, it takes a minute AND a glass of wine AND a really great present!
I could put the 'really great present' expectation on my husband. But when you are a little closer to 40 and a little further from 30, you learn. Just don't. So, I enlisted the help of Stitchfix and a great stylist to send me my 'really great present'! Then I made my husband pay for it ;)
Sweet Rain Satar Crew Neck Blouse (Confetti Print). KEEP
Loved that my stylist called this my birthday shirt. I took her word and wore it on my birthday!
Romolo Devlin Triangle and Cord Necklace. KEEP
I wasn't going to keep the necklace but it makes the outfit.
DL1961 Azalia Skinny Jeans. KEEP
First impression, I thought no. When I tried them on, I was sold! They fit perfectly all around.
The rise is just right. Not too high, not too low. I didn't really need another pair of skinnies but...they fit so well :/ And it's my birthday ;)
Donna Morgan Divya Dress. RETURN
I wasn't a fan of the print or style of the dress. But it does have a nice professional look about it.
I think it would be nice for someone else.
Maggy London Archie Dress. RETURN
I love a fit and flare dress. This one has an interesting print that grew on me. I don't own a lot of blue clothing. For that reason, I considered keeping it for a day or two. Then I decided no. My final decision was no because I'm not confident this dress is for me. I also wasn't liking the heavy polyester like material. It does photograph well though. *sigh* I hope I don't regret this decision!
Overall, I'm really happy with my June 2015 Stitchfix. My stylist, Katie, did a great job considering me and using her professional expertise to style my fix. I think she got me 4 out of 5. I'm still waiting for my perfect 5 fix! Fingers crossed for next month!!!
Have you tried Stitchfix yet? I've got a referral code if you want to give it a try!
I love the last dress! It looks perfect on you. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan of those jeans! And the fit sounds great. I'm always so weary of jeans too.
ReplyDeleteWow you look amazing in your birthday outfit. (By the way, Happy Birthday!) That last dress does photograph beautifully, but it's good that you returned it since you weren't in love with it.
