Stitch Fix Review August 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request!

Stitch Fix Review August 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request!

The end is in SIGHT!  This is my last real summer wardrobe request……and I'm already starting to shift to wanting fall pieces.  My Stitch Fix box was scheduled to arrive RIGHT before our trip to Walt Disney World and our Disney Cruise……so I wanted tons of great pieces that were perfect for a tropical summer vacation.  I asked for shorts, dresses, and fun summer accessories.  And I got some PERFECT pieces for a great tropical vacation!

In case you aren’t already familiar with  STITCH FIX…….a bit about the service: STITCH FIX is a personalized styling service that sends five pieces (including accessories if you choose)to your doorstep.  The great thing? When you join, you fill out an extensive styling profile.  You can request certain items or even ask for options for a specific event (like a conference or vacation).  You choose how often you get a fix (for me it’s usually once a month).  In the comfort of your own home, you try on all items.  Then you keep what you love, and send back the rest…..and all with free shipping!  There is a $20 styling fee, but you can use that $20 as a credit towards any of the items you keep.  And YES, you can set a price range you feel comfortable with.

Stitch Fix Review August 2018

Stitch Fix Review August 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request including this Splendid Amalina Faux Wrap Maxi Dress!

Splendid Amalina Faux Wrap Maxi Dress (size medium, $198, returned): I had a tough time deciding whether to keep this dress. It fit REALLY well…..but it was just too pricey for me.  Plus, I always worry about wardrobe malfunctions with a wrap dress, ha!

Stitch Fix Review August 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request including these Dear John Finnegan Printed Shorts!

Dear John Finnegan Printed Short (size 12, $58, returned): I loved the colors in these shorts, and the fabric was great.  The fit was OK, but not great.  And to me, that means I probably wouldn't have worn them a TON.

Stitch Fix Review August 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request including this Bujibaja Whimsical Clutch!

Bujibaja Whimsical Clutch ($68, returned): Isn't this clutch ADORABLE? I loved it so much……but the practical side of me realized I'd probably not get a ton of use out of it.  If it had been a little less pricey, I might have kept it….but $68 for a product I'd use once or twice? Didn't make sense for me.

Stitch Fix Review August 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request including these Margaret M Lea Printed Short!

Margaret M Lea Printed Short (size large, $68, returned):  I LOVE these shorts, and own them in another print (you can see them HERE).  I considered keeping them in this print as well, but felt like I wouldn't wear BOTH that often.  But these? A must request for pear shaped bodies.  You can pin the image to your own accounts to request from your Stitch Fix stylist.  They come in a TON of prints!

Stitch Fix Review August 2018……what I kept, what I returned and what you should request including this Lost + Wander Larsen Embroidered Off The Shoulder Midi Dress!

Lost + Wander Larsen Embroidered Off The Shoulder Midi Dress (size medium, $88, kept):  I was prepared to not love this dress.  It looked OK on the hanger.  And normally I don't love dresses that require a lining.  But it fits like a DREAM.   It's light and airy and perfect for even into early fall with a jean jacket over it.  I love it and I'm SO glad I kept it!

It includes ebooks, audiobooks, games and movies (I’ve talked a TON about the books and audiobooks that are included, so I’m excited to share a math⠀option).⠀⠀Our current favorite multiplication games:⠀⠀1️⃣ Multiplication Memorizer⠀⠀2️⃣ Multiplication Kids⠀⠀3️⃣ Pinkfong Fun Times⠀⠀Now, anyone in your house?

The way I laughed out loud when I spotted this lit The way I laughed out loud when I spotted this little area during our day at Knott’s Berry Farm……. (teachers, you get it right?!?)I mean, HAD TO TAKE A PHOTO (or 20). This weekend was the start of Peanuts Celebration at Knott’s Berry Farm and we spent a day immersed in all things Snoopy.  From the rides in Camp Snoopy to the adorable new shows to the ACTUAL PIGS in Pigpen’s Pig Pen there was so much to do…..I’m so glad that Knott’s invited us to check it all out!Now, who is YOUR favorite Peanuts character? (Lydia’s is Sally, she’s actually playing her in a school play TODAY — the timing, right?) @knottsberryfarm #knottspeanutscelebration
✨ Happy 100th Disney!✨⠀ ⠀ 💜The people a ✨ Happy 100th Disney!✨⠀⠀💜The people are the magic.  Yesterday was filled with friends and food and fun and feet (sore ones after walking around from dawn to way past dusk)…….and as Lydia and I tucked ourselves into bed last night……I felt so much gratitude.  Our happy place has brought so much joy into our lives and so many people that enrich each moment.⠀⠀✨The Disney 100 Celebration will be happening ALL YEAR, and I feel like we still have so much to see and do.⠀⠀💜Favorite Moments and Experiences from our day one of Disney 100:⠀🚂riding Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railroad: I avoided ALLLLLL spoilers (there are some in this carousel btw), and had seen NONE of the attraction until we stepped into the queue…. it was absolutely adorable and I can’t WAIT to ride it again, plus when we exited the ride…..some of the team that created it were at the exit and seeing their smiles? ABSOLUTE DISNEY MAGIC.⠀🌅seeing the sun rise over the castle bright and early⠀💕running into friends every 5 minutes, it felt like a giant reunion⠀👗characters in their costumes, not going to lie….we didn’t wait in lines for them….they were length, but we gave a wave as we walked by and they looked stunning⠀⠀✨When is your next Disney trip???
🏰Dreaming of Dancing in Front of the Castle for 🏰Dreaming of Dancing in Front of the Castle for Spring Break?🏰⠀⠀📷A few castle photo tips:⠀1️⃣side, not center……both sides of the castle have lovely little spots that provide a great view of the castle and moat, but avoid the crowd (plus you can get some nice flattering light into the mid morning or in the late afternoon)⠀2️⃣want to be closer to the front? Sit on the back of the benches built into the moat entrance, you’ll be a bit elevated, it gives a great angle and a better view of the castle herself ⠀3️⃣if you REALLY want that walking into the castle shot…..this is something you can do during early entry time if you are staying on property ⠀⠀🧳Now, let’s talk Spring Break tips in collaboration with @themeparkfrog :⠀🚨This is IT.  Red alert.  If you’re hoping to visit the Happiest Place on Earth for Spring Break….BOOK IT NOW.  Spring Break is around the corner, and the more you plan, the happier you’ll be (trust me).⠀⠀To do (in order):⠀1️⃣book your hotel, theme park tickets and rental car: for the best deal, you can do this as a bundle with Undercover Tourist (you’ll save a TON this way….I’m sharing more in stories)⠀2️⃣once you have your trip dates….book dining.  At Disneyland you can book 60 days in advance (which means, NOW and coming up very soon for Spring Break).⠀3️⃣ If you want to do something special like the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, you can ALSO book that 60 days in advance.⠀⠀✨So, are you ready? Blue skies, sunshine, and Disney Magic guaranteed. What are YOUR spring break plans?
