Stitch Fix October Review

I decided to get another Stitch Fix box before I put a lock on my wallet as we get close to birthdays (including my own) and Christmas.  I also thought it would be helpful with working on my more casual wardrobe.  And finally, my last box was a bit of a disappointment, so I thought I’d give it another spin a little sooner to hopefully improve on things a bit.  My box came yesterday and it just so happened to be a day I worked an earlier schedule at work, so I was able to get home to try on my goodies that much sooner and I have to say, while I had a different stylist again, I ended up loving this box a ton more.  Here is what I got this time – not the greatest quality pictures unfortunately, but I think you’ll get the idea.

Collective Concepts Rilo Button Up Blouse:

I had asked for something in plaid since it seems to be the hot pattern this season (and I have always loved my plaid), but my stylist said there wasn’t anything in stock in my size, but sent this instead.  I haven’t always been a fan of the Collective Concepts brand on me, but this one finally felt like a winner. It’s lightweight enough for warmer weather, but will be a great piece to layer this Fall and Winter as well. I like the pattern a lot! Verdict: KEPT

Market and Spruce Denver Cable Knit Elbow Patch Cardigan:

I am such a sucker for a cozy cardigan.  I’m even more of a sucker for elbow patches.  So this was kind of a no brainer – not to mention, I had seen this on another blogger’s review and linked it in my notes to my stylist, so I’m not that surprised this showed up. I was saying well, I don’t know that I really need another gray sweater, but then my mom, who happened to be over dropping off Ollie as I tried stuff on, said “It’s not gray, it’s taupe and it’s a very versatile color!” Ok, sold!  Verdict: KEPT

Le Sample Morada Embroidery Detail Top and Just Black Dolce Bootcut Jean:

This top is a little on the summery side, but you all know how much I love coral.  I also love that it’s kind of peplum, but not overly so.  I found two blazers in my closet this will go well with, so I think it can transition well to Fall and Winter just fine!  Verdict: KEPT

As for the pants, I will tell you – I have pretty much always liked the pants that Stitch Fix has sent me, but the price tag usually gives me pause.  Well, this time I think I’m going all in because these pants are amazing, they’re comfy and I can get away with wearing them to work.  I decided they’re worth the splurge –  not to mention, the bootcut/flair look is back in style. Verdict: KEPT

Moda Luxe Broadway  Satchel:

Again, I think it’s no secret I am a bag fan.  I have some Jewell by Thirty-One bags that are pretty much my favorites and “Holy Grail” bags right now and I wasn’t going to cheat on them, but then when I saw this was sent to me in cognac I had to give it a second look.  It’s a nice soft vegan leather and it’s just the right size.  And I don’t have a cognac colored bag that I love and it’s a color I actually really like. And since I pretty much decided I was keeping the entire box at this point anyway, I knew I had to keep this one too.  So guess what – Verdict: KEPT.

Yes that’s right.  I went from returning an entire box last month to keeping the entire box this month. I will tell you, this is a splurge, but other than getting my new iPhone soon, it’s kind of my last big splurge for now.  I don’t know when I’ll schedule another box right now, but for now I’m excited about these fun new pieces and I look forward to styling them!

So what do you think?  Did I choose well this time?
