S T I T C H F I X summer getaway edition

My new stitch fix box arrived. There were some GEMS in this box! Including this coral tank and aztec print dress.  I love both! If you haven’t heard, stitch fix is a service, where you fill out a style profile and receive a box of 5 items ((clothing/accessories)) on your doorstep. You can try them on at home, keep what you like and send the rest back. I love being able to try things on with what I already have–to see if the pieces will work or not. This blog post is not sponsored but does contains affiliate links. 

This summer is going to rock my face off. The main reason is that my husband and I are going on our FIRST! VACATION! WITHOUT! CHILDREN! !!!!!  !!!!! !!!! ! ! !

Raise the roof, friends.

I'm twelve types of excited and nervous and I knew I wanted to find some fun style pieces to wear while I'm galavanting on a beach with my baby daddy.

 

In the special notes to the stylist I made some requests. I wasn't specific---because they are shopping for me. I don't believe this process is all about picking a certain top and requesting it specifically, more like  requesting a style, color block, or event attire. It's part of the fun, honestly. It's not online shopping----it's a styling service.

She hit all my wishes, no? Such a fun pattern---and downright adorable. I'm digging  the abstract version of chevron.

 

The detail on this tank is phenomenal. A big YES was said upon unfolding this pretty little coral gem.

 

I enjoyed how the stylist I had this month stuck with my wishlist. Ever piece from this fix could fall into one or all categories. Making a style wishlist in your notes to the stylist really is my top suggestion for getting a fix full of items you love.

Oh this dress makes me chuckle. I almost didn't take any photos in it. It is the ideal beach vacation dress---however--my girls don't do it justice. So sad. Every year since 7th grade I've been waiting for them to show up.....alas........((sigh))

What fun items, right?! I just adore getting a fix each month. It's a special treat! I don't keep everything---the reality is I can't afford it. It really is about the experience.

 

the surprise of the items//the fit and cut// the refining of style// piecing an outfit together// questioning how items can work into current wardrobe// picking favorites//selecting one to keep

 

Have you tried giving your stylist guidelines and/or  a wishlist? Try it next month! Let me know how it works for you.
