Stitch Fix Review April 2018

Stitch Fix Review April 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request (plus a giveaway)!

Stitch Fix Review April 2018: Looking for great pants? These DL1961 Florence Released Hem Skinny Jean pants are PERFECT for spring outfits!You guys are LOVING the Stitch Fix Reviews, and I'm excited to share my first real spring fix.   If you've been around these parts for awhile, then you know how much I love Stitch Fix.  I've been receiving their style tips and picks for over two years, and love how I can ask for specific things I need each month (be sure to check out my past fixes HERE).  I've used Stitch Fix to discover some great new brands, and a ton of the staples I wear every week? From past Stitch Fix deliveries.  This month, I asked for a couple specific things: transitional items for spring, and I wanted to try some of the higher end designer pieces that Stitch Fix now offers.

Stitch Fix Review April 2018

This month I had a very mixed reaction to the pieces I received…..and I'm excited to hear YOUR thoughts! 

< sneakers in these pictures are from my March Stitch Fix, get all details HERE >

Skies are Blue Madaline Multi Patterned Knit Top (size medium, $48, kept): I LOVE LOVE LOVE this tee.  It's the perfect weight for transitional spring outfits, and I love the polka dots.  Total keep.

DL1961 Florence Released Hem Skinny Jean (size 10, $188, kept): These jeans? In my top five pairs of jeans EVER.  They're a great, light jegging material…..and fit like a DREAM.  Worth every penny.

Calvin Klein Wisteria Cotton Maxi Shirt Dress (size 8, $108, returned): My issue with shirt dresses? They ALWAYS gap on the top.  And this one? Same issue.  I loved the stripes, but it just didn't fit right.

Lucky Brand Basel Suede Zip Bootie ($129, returned): While I loved these cute navy suede booties, they felt more winter than spring to me.  I'm dreaming of sandals and light sneakers…..so these got returned.

Fossil Lane Crossbody ($178, returned): I love a great crossbody bag, and while this one is pricey….it wasn't ridiculously expensive.  I just didn't love the shape.

Have you ever attended a luau? This was the first Have you ever attended a luau?This was the first I’ve EVER attended (fun fact, when we came to Aulani 5 years ago we were supposed to and it was rained out). The night before on this trip, we had some storms and I thought….oh no, round 2? But……the Hawaiian sun did it’s job and the weather for this was PERFECT. To be honest, this was not cheap.  I was a little apprehensive about whether I would feel it was worth the money but…..WOW was it ever.  The food was amazing, there were really fun activities for kids at the beginning and the cultural performances were phenomenal.  All three of us (including not wanting to spend even more $$$ vacation Robbie) left raving about the experience. Aulani wins for us so far on this trip that I’m so glad I booked in advance (highly suggest doing this as far out from your trip dates as you can)- the luau (try night 2 or 3 of your trip so you’ve had time to adjust to the time change)- Aunty’s Beach House (this is still at limited capacity so you DO need to book in advance, I booked a session for days 2, day 3, and day 4 and we’ve enjoyed having a bit of time each day)- character dining and prix fix dinner at Makahiki (we are one big meal each vacation day people, so DON’T book these the same day, I’d do character breakfast early on your first full day….you’ll wake up early with the time change and the dinner on whichever night you AREN’T doing the luau)Already dreaming of booking another trip here.
🌴🌺Postcards from Aulani: the Food and Charac 🌴🌺Postcards from Aulani: the Food and Characters are the Best🌺🌴(if you could only pick one of these treats, what would it be?!?)🌺 Mickey Masubi from the Ulu Cafe🌴minnie red velvet waffles (character breakfast at Makahiki)🌺 aulani special from the coffee cart (available each morning until 10:30 am)🌴olu rice crispy treat from the Ulu CafeFav meals so far (ha) were both at Makahiki.  We LOVED the character breakfast (so many unique local food offerings) and the Disney Team treated us to the prix fix dinner our first night here….I can’t even begin to explain what a lovely experience it was.  Killer cocktails, a GREAT kids’ menu and I had the best Ahi of my life.Now swipe all the way to end for an appearance from Vacation Robbie.  We love to see it.And place your votes…..pick ONE treat.
Five years ago. This exact place. Robbie had jus Five years ago.  This exact place.  Robbie had just finished two years of grad school.  And it had been a long, tough two years.  That year involved one major teacher strike in my district, many many many jobs and gigs for both of us, minimal time off together, a whole lot of unknowns and a whole lot of stress.The Disney and Aulani team probably had no idea that they were giving us the gift of much needed peaceful time together when they invited us on a trip to this magical place.  A trip that….to be honest, was beyond our means at the time.  We cherished every moment. A lot has happened since then.  A move, buying a house, seeing those years of hard work pay off.  And now….we did it.  We’re back.  Lazy river here we come. TLDR? If you’re in the thick of it, I see you.  We’ve been there. Family, Welcome Home……we did it.  Aulani for the week.
Now, if I’m being totally honest…..this pulled Now, if I’m being totally honest…..this pulled muscle? I should have known better.  When training for my race, I didn’t stretch or warm up enough most days and….here we are.Lesson learned.  I’m 4 weeks post race (do not recommend running a 10k on a pulled muscle) and I’m……almost better.  I’m learning to stretch and walk and to take better care of myself so that I can start running again REALLY soon (we’re almost there I think).For now? I’m doing recovery walks and trying to strengthen my leg.  And trying to make sure I get enough protein.  When I talked about Built Bars on my stories, a LOTTTTT of you raced about their Puffs.  Yup, I get it.  They’re AMAZING.  I’ve been bringing them along on my walks (and gluten free friends….they have some great options for us).Have you ever pulled a muscle? What was recovery like for you?#youGOTTAtrythis #BUILTProtein #BUILT #BUILTbar partner
💕Double Tap when you see who we found at the zo 💕Double Tap when you see who we found at the zoo (and swipe to the end for a close up)⠀⠀🌴Coming to San Diego for Spring Break or a Summer Vacation?⠀⠀📍Let’s talk San Diego Zoo (and yes, I got off a plane yesterday, picked up Lydia and we spent the afternoon at the zoo…..it was LOVELY).⠀⠀A few things to help you plan visits to San Diego and the Zoo:⠀1️⃣ the San Diego Zoo and Safari Park are NOT close together.  The Zoo is close to downtown, the Safari Park is about 25 miles north.  I’d suggest one day at each.  They’re totally unique and both worth a visit.  The Safari Park is smaller, but has REALLY unique exhibits (Walkabout Australia is my favorite).⠀2️⃣ both have some really fun and unique dining experiences that you can reserve in advance: Albert’s at the Zoo is a FANCY and fun sit down option, and The Watering Hole at Kijamii Overlook at the Safari Park is great for happy hour or a fun lunch ⠀3️⃣ there are great kids play areas at both locations, the Wildlife Explorers Base Camp area at the San Diego Zoo is brand new and absolutely amazing⠀⠀✨ Now, a bonus tip.  Undercover Tourist now has NATIONWIDE savings on over 500 attractions in 50 cities and up to 25% on tickets for theme parks, zoo, museums, aquariums, city tours, water parks, and movie tickets. And the deals they have for San Diego?  AMAZING (I’m sharing details in my stories).⠀⠀@themeparkfrog #UncoverSavingsNationwide #ad
