December Stitch Fix

January 31, 2017

Hello, loves! Yes, I realize I’m a month behind on posting my fixes, but (if you haven’t read my previous post), I’ve had a lot going on! I love opening up that box every month and seeing what my stylist has selected for me. It’s like getting a care package from a friend! Well, one I have to pay for haha, but a fun gift to open nonetheless. For my December Stitch Fix, I requested a fun party dress, a metallic or embellished clutch, and a cozy sweater. I received two dresses, a clutch, a sweater and a pair of leggings. Read on to hear my thoughts on each and see how I styled them.

The dress was unfortunately too big on me, I could have gone down a size. It honestly seemed a little young for me, and that’s one of the reasons I sent it back, along with the price. It kind of seemed like something I would find in the Junior’s “occasion” department at Kohls, and definitely not a piece I would pay $88 for. The clutch was SO cute, maybe a touch oversized for a night-out, but it had several nicks in it. Not sure if it was from a previous recipient who sent it back after using it or perhaps it was damaged during shipping. Either way, I expect things to arrive in “new” condition. Dress and clutch, $38, returned.

This I believe was the second attempt at a fun party dress, but I was just not feeling this print for December. I feel like it maybe could have worked in summer, but I didn’t see it as an ideal holiday option.
Dress, $118, returned.

I became a little obsessed with how soft this sweater was and the saturated wine hue. Even though it kiiinda shows my bra straps without some frequent adjusting, I found it so cozy that I wore it for a couple days in a row, with a little fabric refresher in-between. The leggings were great and felt very supportive, but I felt that I could have done better on the price.
Sweater, $58, kept, leggings, $78, returned.

Overall, just the sweater was a keeper from my December Stitch Fix. I think the price points were still a little high for my liking, and the damaged item was definitely not great to discover. Overall, not my most inspired fix, but my next one was much better, and it should it up very soon!

Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks

November 8, 2016

Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks - Floral Print Midi DressI’ve been following Who What Wear for several years now and was so excited when they partnered with Target to bring some of the current trends, perhaps normally reserved for street style stars, to a much lower price point so they are accessible for all. It took me a couple of seasons to finally dive in and buy a few things, mostly because the collection is always down to a few off-sizes at my local store by the time I make it in. This season, I decided to order online and edit from there. Not pictured are a couple of the pencil skirts (I sized UP and these still didn’t fit!), cropped pants (that weren’t sewn at the top so the material kept flipping up), and a couple of long-sleeved tees with off screen-printing. As you can tell, not every piece in the collection is a winner. If buying online, make sure you read the reviews to see if you need to size up, if the zipper generally sucks, etc. Without further ado, check out my Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks!

Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks - Feminine Midi DressThis dress (obvi) was just the most fun to twirl around in. At first, I wasn’t sold on the faux leather trim around the neckline and the wrists, but it’s really grown on me! It adds a little edge to the feminine floral print. The lace-up low heels are also from Target. Dress (different print), $36.99, pumps, $34.99.

Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks - Polka Dot Shirt Dress Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks - Pajama ShirtdressMy first time trying out the pajama trend, this shirtdress is about as comfy as wearing pajamas! The belt is definitely needed, as this dress isn’t very fitted so it looks a little sack-like without it. I paired it with heeled cut-out ankle booties to balance the look. Dress, $29.74 (on clearance!)

Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks - Suede Moto Jacket & Skinnies Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks - Moto Jacket and Striped Shell I’d been wanting to get my hands on a colored suede moto jacket for fall, and when I came across this one (on sale, no less, because I had a 20% off code!), I jumped on it. Olive is such a versatile color for fall, and great to throw on over just about anything. I paired it with this sheer striped shell, also from WWW, black skinnies and beige suede booties. Jacket, $49.99, shell, $22.99.
And lastly, not from the Who What Wear brand, but I found several gorgeous pairs of velvet shoes at Target that I had to share. Velvet and embellished are two of my favorite trends for the upcoming holidays, especially in the form of footwear! They’re so fun and put an extra little bit of festiveness in your step!

Who What Wear Collection Fall Picks - Velvet & Embellished ShoesClockwise from top : Embellished ankle-strap heels / FarylRobin $39.99 // Embellished ankle-strap flats / FarylRobin // Velvet ankle booties / Merona (no longer available in this color 🙁 // Lace-up flats / Mossimo (also got these in burgundy, because of course I did!)

What do you all think of the Who What Wear collections for Target? Any hits/misses that you’ve tried? I’d love to hear 😀

Dolman Top & Zigzag Skirt

October 29, 2016

Dolman Top & Zigzag Skirt - Full Fall LookHello, loves! I can’t believe that Halloween is already upon us! It seems like just yesterday I was trying to convince my coworkers to join me in dressing up like the ladies of the 80’s comedy “9 to 5” and them all looking at me like I was crazy (those party poopers!) I decided to strike out on my own and recreate Dolly Parton from the preceding decade, country singer Dolly in the 70’s! I’m so excited to throw on a gingham skirt and stuff my bra with about 8 pairs of socks. Oh, and the accent, can’t forget that! 😉
When putting this look together, I definitely wanted to create an outfit that was multi-functional. I would wear this ensemble to brunch, out shopping with the girls, on a casual date night (wedge booties are the PERFECT footwear for a date when you might be walking a fair bit or on uneven ground, you get a bit of height while staying comfortable), or even to work. The skirt is made of the comfiest stretch knit material, and the top is flattering on everyone, especially those (like me!) with a little tummy. I can’t wait to start pairing my pencil skirts with tights and a scarf when the weather allows. Check out my previous post here to see how I styled another versatile Stitch Fix knit skirt.

Grey Cardi & Cropped White Denim

October 4, 2016

Grey Cardi & Cropped White Denim - Full Fall LookWelcome another perfect summer-to-fall transitional outfit. This grey cardi & white cropped denim look would have been the perfect thing to wear on a summer day with sandals and minus the sweater. Adding another layer on top and swapping out the sandals for ankle booties makes it ideal for wearing as the temperatures start to drop, also proving another way that you can wear white after Labor Day (check out my other post on the subject here).
I think transitional dressing really revolves around layering. A cropped jacket or knit cardigan are great for throwing on over a dress or tank top. Tights and ankle or knee-high boots can add coverage so you can keep wearing skirts and dresses towards the end of the year. Throwing on a crew-neck knit sweater over a button-down shirt adds warmth and an adorable preppy vibe. It’s also another great chance to accessorize with knit beanies, chunky scarves and textured tights. Sorry, I just love fall dressing so much, sometimes I start to ramble! Anyway, I really adore this outfit for how comfortable it is and how it takes some typically summer items that you might normally think to store away after September, and gives them longevity throughout the year.
