Stitch Fix #5 {southern maryland photographer}

And so today is one of my favorite days every month. My arrived today. And had we not needed to leave in only a few minutes for Graham’s lacrosse game, I’d have checked out and posted this hours ago. Holly knocked it out of the park!

Without further ado…
bauble 2

bauble
Bancroft Leighton Metal Bauble Necklace ($34)
Kept. How much fun is this little gem? Yea, kinda costly overall, but with a 25% Buy 5 Discount… Not to mention I’m pretty lazy about latches, and so the ability to slip this over my noggin and keep moving is an added invaluable bonus.

ackley
41Hawthorn Ackley Houndstooth Print Bouse ($68).
Kept. Sigh. Am I ever going to get past loving all things black & white? Not likely. Way to kill it here, Holly. Dressed up or down this is a winner and will be a long-time staple in the wardrobe. My black jeans from Fix #1 and some black flats… yep, my brain is already working on the countless outfit pairings for this shirt!

carlie
Mono Reno Carlie Hooded VVest ($58).
Kept. How cute is this hoodie vest!?!? My children and husband (and BFF) mock me when I wear my vest [Stitch Fix #1 and totally I LOVE that vest. The family already told me this one is cute. I see it paired with jeans and a cozy T and my Toms Paseos on the sidelines. No baseball hats for me, though. The collar is such a cute feminine detail for such a typically masculine style vest. I was eye-balling the basic olive version on the internet for the last few weeks. I’m really glad I held out for Stitch Fix. They nailed it. Again.

ruffle back

ruffle front
Market & Spruce Kristah Ruffle Knit Blazer ($78)
Kept. This is way out of my comfort level for budgets, but again, 25% off. And can we please take a moment to look at the back view here, people? The ruffles are so fun. I will definitely pair this with skirts or jeans or my corduroys (that I wear at least once a week, if not more!). If I didn’t have the boys and I in kinda-matchy-but-not-1995-matching shirts for Easter, this would be worn then, too. Maybe it still will…

I had to save this one for last, because we are having a love affair:
whitnee 1whitnee 2
Loveappella Whitnee Button Neck Striped Shift Dress ($64)
Kept. If I got five of these, I’d probably keep all five. This dress is so amazing. It fits insanely well. It was made in the USA (bonus points!). It will be great for work and for weekends. I had a short-sleeved version (without the too-cute button and overlay detail on the shoulders like this one!) that I wore out when pregnant with T&J so maybe I’m just sentimentally attached to navy & white stripes. I’m a sucker for stripes, too.

So this is #4 out of a total 5 fixes that I’ve kept every single item. Good thing I budget for this monthly, right!? 🙂
