Stitch Fix July 2016 Review #10
Sometimes the best clothing items are the ones you didn’t know you “needed”, until your Stitch Fix stylist sent it to you and realized its value. This was a welcome but unexpected Stitch Fix shipment. Here are the contents of my 10th Stitch Fix box.
-
STREET LEVEL Roxy Cork Clutch ($48) - For special occassions I trade my everyday crossbody bag for smaller handheld options that function primarily to hold the essentials (phone, wallet, lip gloss, bag of gummy bears). Although I love the look of a clutch tucked neatly under the arm, I also appreciate a bag that comes with an optional crossbody strap, as this one does. The interior is simple black fabric with pipped cork lining the opening of the pockets. I love that it’s not overly embellished so it goes with anything, but still has a unique vibe with hints of gold sparkle and cork finishing.
-
PIXLEY Sondra Textured Knit Dress, S ($78) - Despite living in the South, I own very few summer dresses. This Stitch Fix box arrived on a day where the humidity was in the mid 70’s, the UV index was 11, and the temperature was pushing 90. The fabric is heavier than you would expect for a summer dress, but the weight keeps the material from bunching around the waist and contributes to a slimming silhouette. And while black doesn’t seem like the typical summer color, this item was on par with my style with the simple cut out details around the shoulder.
-
41Hawthorn Moni Studded Short Sleeve Blouse, S ($54) - This top was the most surprisingly piece in my box. It was the one item that I thought was an automatic no, but actually loved. The loose, flowy fabric is breathable and comfortable, yet avoids looking sloppy. This top can serve as a chic option for a professional ensemble.
-
SKIES ARE BLUE Robledo Lace Top, S ($58) - This shirt is slightly cropped, but with high waisted pants the hem line hits right around the waist for a polished look that isn’t too revealing. I typically shy away from lace tops because they have the tendency to feel old and dated instead of chic and vintage. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this one. The eyelet pattern is intricate but not too busy. I especially love the scalloped hem and keyhole back closure.
-
LIVERPOOL Phillip Straight Leg Trouser, 2 ($98) - I’ve been eyeing a variation of these cropped trousers for a while, since they seem like the ideal foundation for a variety of looks. This pair is sleek, simple and sophisticated. The cheery color makes a fun statement, yet is still able to complement a wide variety of tops and looks. The fit was perfect in the waist and upper thighs, but the cut was too tight around my calves. In general I have a tough time finding skinny pants that I’m comfortable, but these were close to a win.
