Stitch Fix #5


 My 5th Stitch Fix has arrived! 

Item #1: Daniel Rainn Saxton Geo Print Henley Blouse $58
My first impression:  The pattern reminds me tank that I received in my 2nd fix.  Similar to the last couple fixes, the sleeve buttons up.  The fit of the blouse was perfect.  I liked how it felt and looked. There was nothing that I really didn't like about this blouse.  During the winter months, I would likely pair it with a blazer.  However.... given another item sent to me this month that I like better...
My decision: Send back.

 
Item #2 Pixley Dillard Snake Print & Colorblocked Blouse $64
My first impression: I'm not sure of the color blocking.  I'm really not sure of the snake print.  I wonder what I can pair this tank with because it will definitely not be warm enough to wear to work.  I pulled out a white sweater cardigan to try with this.  I love the cut of the neckline.  If it would be more versatile in my wardrobe, I would consider keeping this item, but as it is I just don't have much that I could mix and match it with.
My decision: Send back


Item #3: 19 Cooper Trim Contrast Collar Sleeveless Blouse $58
My first impression: As this tank is sheer and low cut, I would definitely have to layer something underneath it.  I put a silky peach tank underneath this tank for the photo.  After looking at the picture, I don't really like the placement of the pockets.  Also the thought of having to wear a tank underneath a tank to layer under another warmer layer seems a bit much.
My decision: Send back
 

 Item #4: Sanctuary Shelston Solid Trim Waffle Knit Sweater $48
My first impression: Love it! This sweater has a low-cut V-neck so I put on a solid black tank underneath.  I love the color of the sweater.  The weight of it would be cozy on a cold winter day.  I can see myself wearing this often throughout the sub-zero temperature months coming.
My decision: Keep


Item #5: Look by M Torrey Twist Cable Knit Infinity Scarf $42
I love cable-knit sweaters! The idea card that came with this infinity scarf told me to try it with the sweater that came in the fix.  However, when I put the infinity scarf on, it seemed too bulky.  It would definitely be warm.  I could see wearing this with a winter coat to keep the cold wind off of my neck, but I can't see myself wearing it throughout the day.  I had a hard time getting my hair to lay nice while wearing it.  Also, it just felt too big and was hard to arrange for me.  I love the thin silky infinity scarf that I got in my first fix.
My decision: Sadly, send back.


This was another fun fix!  I decided to keep one item that I absolutely loved.
