This Month’s Stitch Fix Items

Last month I kept all five items and spoiler alert, this month I did as well.  Thanks to these two great Stitch Fix boxes, I’m all set for fall.  When I requested my October box, I let Brittany know that we are headed to Vermont this month for vacation, so she sent items that are perfect for my upcoming trip and also perfect for wearing all of fall and into winter.

Papermoon Ilma Cold Shoulder Grommet Detail Blouse

When I got notification that my Stitch Fix box was on the way, I peeped at my Stitch Fix app to see what I was receiving this month.  For some reason my eye skipped over the word blouse and I thought that this top was a sweatshirt and I wasn’t terribly excited about receiving it.  When I pulled it out of the box and realized it was a blouse, my opinion changed.  I slipped this Papermoon Ilma Cold Shoulder Grommet Detail Blouse on and immediately loved it.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Papermoon Ilma Cold Shoulder Grommet Detail Blouse with Sole Society Handbags Duff Crossbody

I paired this blouse with Sam Edelman jeans from my November 2018 Fix, a Sole Society handbag from this Fix, and jewelry from Rocksbox.  Rocksbox is a jewelry subscription service that sends three pieces of jewelry that you can wear for as long as you like each month.  When you send your three pieces back, or buy what you like, a new box is sent.  If you’d like a free month of Rocksbox, sign up with this code: PAULABFF54Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Papermoon Ilma Cold Shoulder Grommet Detail Blouse with Sole Society Handbags Duff Crossbody

Red is my favorite color and this burgundy red is perfect for fall.  I can wear this with jeans or dress it up by pairing it with a skirt.  I’m already planning to wear it with the Edyson skinny cords from my November 2019 Fix.

The grommet detail on the shoulder adds interest to this blouse and it’s a detail that I really like.  I’m already looking forward to wearing this blouse on my upcoming Vermont trip and then in town once we’re home.Papermoon Ilma Cold Shoulder Grommet Detail Blouse

Verdict:  Keep

Sole Society Handbags Duff Crossbody

I asked Brittany for a handbag for fall and she found one that I adore.  This Sole Society Handbags Duff Crossbody can be used as a crossbody with the strap or with the strap removed a chic handbag.Sole Society Handbags Duff Crossbody

I love the size of this handbag, it’s just large enough to hold what I normally carry and it has an adorable ring handle.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Papermoon Ilma Cold Shoulder Grommet Detail Blouse with Sole Society Handbags Duff Crossbody

Fortune + Ivy Alannis Dolman Sleeve Knit Top

Leopard is super popular this fall.  I love both the leopard pattern and also the comfortable fit and style of this Fortune+Ivy Alannis Dolman Sleeve Knit Top.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Fortune + Ivy Alannis Dolman Sleeve Knit Top

This lightweight top will be perfect to wear on cool fall days.  I paired it with jeans from this Fix and black booties that I bought last year from Payless.  Anyone else miss Payless?

Speaking of leopard, I recently ordered this T-shirt from Amazon and every time I wear it, people ask where I got it.  Bonus that it was under $20.

Liverpool Kaylee Skinny Jean

The word skinny paired with jean usually means that there’s not a chance that I’ll be able to squeeze my thighs and calves into them.  Thanks to the stretch of these Liverpool Kaylee Skinny Jeans I am able to wear skinny jeans and they are quite comfortable.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Fortune + Ivy Alannis Dolman Sleeve Knit Top

I usually opt for a dark wash in denim and am happy to add this lighter color denim to my closet.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Fortune + Ivy Alannis Dolman Sleeve Knit Top

The hemline of these jeans comes just to the ankle which makes them great to wear with booties for fall.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Fortune + Ivy Alannis Dolman Sleeve Knit Top

I have a feeling that I’ll be wearing these frequently this fall and winter.Liverpool Kaylee Skinny Jean

Karl Lagerfeld Paris Yessie Trumpet Knit Top

This Karl Lagerfeld Paris Yessie Trumpet Knit Top is silky soft and has a slight amount of stretch making it very comfortable.  I love its floral pattern and also the trumpet detail of the sleeves.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Karl Lagerfeld Paris Yessie Trumpet Sleeve Knit top

I think that I would prefer wearing this top with a darker wash jean but I still like how it looks with the Liverpool Kaylee Skinny Jeans  from this Fix.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Karl Lagerfeld Paris Yessie Trumpet Sleeve Knit top

The floral pattern has a touch of pink and I think that this blouse will look great paired with the Kut from the Kloth Krissy Veleveteen pants that I purchased from my January Fix.Stitch Fix Review for October 2019 - Karl Lagerfeld Paris Yessie Trumpet Sleeve Knit top

This blouse is more than what I like to pay for a top but thanks to Stitch Fix’s “Buy 5 save 25%” that I took advantage of, the price was tolerable.Karl Lagerfeld Paris Yessie Trumpet Sleeve Knit Top
