Fall Stitch Fix

Monday, September 25, 2017

I have mentioned my upcoming trip to Nashville a few times now on here.
I wanted to update my wardrobe with some new Fall pieces, so I ordered a box from Stitch Fix!
I actually received an offer to get it without the styling fee, so I figured why not!
Actually, I ordered two boxes this month.

Here is what came in Box #1 from Katie....
FATE Annastasia Ruffle Bell Sleeve Cardigan $68
Honestly, as soon as I took this out of the box I knew that it wasn't for me.
I am not a cardigan girl.
And those ruffle bell sleeves definitely aren't for me.
RETURNED

PISTOLA Audrey Moto Detail Skinny Pant $88
Loved these moto jeans!
They were super soft and fit really well, but the back pockets did nothing for me :(
Between those pockets and the price tag (without the discount) I decided they weren't for me.
RETURNED
SKIES ARE BLUE Spooner Lace Inset Blouse  $58
I really liked this top, but I have a similar one on my closet already.
RETURNED


SKIES ARE BLUE Andros Embroidered Top $58
It my note to Katie I stated that I was looking for a white lace/eyelet top.
This is the closest thing she had to what I was looking for.
It fit well, but I wasn't a fan of the light blue underlay, or the fact that it was sleeveless.
RETURNED
SKIES ARE BLUE Davies Crew Neck Blouse $54
I liked this top way more in person, and on than I did in the picture.
They only reason I sent it back was because I wasn't keeping anything else :(
RETURNED

Total $326
Buy 5 Discount -$81.50
GRAND TOTAL $244.50


Katie was my stylist for Box #2 as well.
BRIXON IVY Alessandria Crochet Bib Lace Top $54
I mentioned again in my note that I was looking for a white lace top, and this time mentioned the longer sleeves.
I was sent this top that comes with a tank underneath it.
Overall fit and style was just OK to me.
RETURNED

MARKET & SPRUCE Dollie Tie Back Neck Knit Top $54
This tie back top is almost sweatshirt like.
It is so soft and comfy!
I really liked this top, but I just bought a hoodie that was the same color and material.
RETURNED

RETROD Moana Elbow Patch Pullover $64
I have pinned so many images with sweaters and tops that have elbow patches.
Between my note and my Pinterest boards, Katie sent me this sweater to try out.
I love the color and the patches, but the fit is just OK to me.
RETURNED




DANIEL RAINN Becru Lace Detail Blouse $68
The color of this top is gorgeous!
I just wish it had longer sleeves for Fall/Winter!
RETURNED

41HAWTHORN Lawford Knit Top $58
I actually pinned this exact top on my boards, so I was super happy to find it in my box.
Unfortunately, the color around the neck doesn't look right on me :(
RETURNED


Total $298
But 5 Discount $74.50
GRAND TOTAL $223.50


So at the end of the day, I ordered 2 fixes in the month of September (both had style fees waived).
And I unfortunately didn't keep anything from either of them :(
I might give it one more shot before calling it quits for good.

And thank you Katie for checking out my Pinterest boards and really listening to me in my notes to the stylist.
I just wish some of these pieces had fit better.


Do you order a box from Stitch Fix?
Have you been happy with the items you have been sent?

Is there another subscription clothing service I need to check out?




Fall Faves & Shopping Deals!

Friday, September 22, 2017

Linking up with Andrea, Narci & Erika for...




We had a rare Saturday without soccer, so I took full advantage of it!
I headed down to Columbus for some dreaded, but much needed shopping.
Shopping = NOT MY FAVORITE
But finding some items I needed = MY FAVORITE

I refueled with one of my FAVORITE fall drinks - Salted Caramel Mocha Frap!

Sunday was all about getting things ready for the upcoming week and watching our FAVORITE sport!
X and I also made some of our FAVORITE muffins!

If you haven't made the Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins from Shay, you must do it now!
They are perfect for Fall!

After watching football, we went outside to play our FAVORITE sport :)
All this kid does is run and want to play some sort of sport!
I just love it!

X had a game on Monday night and our FAVORITE soccer star scored 2 goals!
To say I am proud of how well he is doing this year is an understatement.

X had to go back to the dentist this week and I was dreading it!
We quickly read about his FAVORITE thing right now - Pokemon before getting called back.
Hearing the sounds in there are NOT MY FAVORITE, but he did great!

If you follow me on Instagram (xtremelyv) or saw my stories this week, than you know that road construction is NOT MY FAVORITE!
Our town is currently repaving a 9 mile stretch of road that is right in front of X's school.
They said they won't be done until next week sometime :(
It makes mornings stressful!
After dropping X off for school the other day I sat in my car in the parking lot for almost 10 minutes before they let us out!


In other news, I have been wanting to grab a new denim jacket.
I wear my FAVORITE one year round.
Honestly, most weeks I wear it 4 out of 7 days.
I have worn it so much that I wore right through the elbows :(
I decided to check out the Macy's VIP sale online and saw my FAVORITE jacket was on sale.
On top of that I scored an additional 30% off!
Making that amazing jacket less than $45!!!!
So what does any logical person do in this situation?
I ordered a new one in the color I already have (Sweet Wine) , and I ordered an additional color (Universal)! :)
If you haven't picked up this jacket yet, do it now!
This is an amazing price!
The sale ends 9/25.


And Mic and I are still watching Game of Thrones.
It is definitely his FAVORITE show right now.
We just started season 4 this week.
Do you watch it?

And that is it for this week!
Looking to more soccer this weekend,
taking X to the Little Buckeye Museum,
and watching football!

What are you doing this weekend?
