Summer Stitch Fix! June 2016

It's here!  My summer stitch fix.  I ended up keeping 2 out of the 5 items which is cool, but I just keep hoping for a 5 out of 5 (I really want that discount! lol)

Loved the color, fit well, but just not my style:  RETURNED.




Dear John - Finnegan Roll Cuff Short

Dear John - Finnegan Roll Cuff Short
I'm always looking for a nice pair of more modestly cut shorts, which is why these were picked out by my stylist.  They were a little large in the waist, and the length was a bit long for me (rolling the cuff once more would have been just right).  Being into sewing, I would have made those alterations but.... I just wasn't a fan of the color.  I was hoping for either a fun bright color, or something more timeless (navy or khaki): RETURNED.



Skies are Blue - Nielsen Henley Top

Skies are Blue - Nielsen Henley Top

I have a lot of plaids on my Stitch Fix pinterest board which may be why this was picked out for me.  I don't usually even wear plaid but I like the idea of it and am on the lookout for a cute long-sleeved shirt that looks out-doorsy for camping etc.  This top fit more loosely than I like, and I just wasn't feeling a sleeveless in this pattern: RETURNED.




 Papermoon - Biscayne Lace Panel Knit Top

Papermoon - Biscayne Lace Panel Knit Top

When I pulled this out of the box I wasn't feeling it.  Then I looked at it closer and really liked the detailing (which is something I include in my style requests).  I always try everything on that is sent even if I am not at first interested.  Glad I did, because this time I was pleasantly surprised at how well it fit, and how much more I liked it when I tried it on: KEPT.

I liked this dress right away but didn't get my hopes up.  I've been on the lookout for a summer maxi dress and had 2 sent to me in previous fixes.  In my 4th Stitch Fix the dress was a print that just wasn't me (I then noted in my style comments I prefer a solid bodice when having a patterned bottom to the dress), and in my 3rd Stitch Fix the dress was amazing, and fit great, EXCEPT it was too short, ugh.  Also a bit pricey not getting the keep 5 discount, but if it were longer, I probably would have kept it.

Anyways, when I tried this dress on it fit well, and was a nice length.  PLUS, the back had a cool and unique cut to it, which is another thing I always request in the stylist comments :)  This one was a KEEPER
