First Stitch Fix

I've been seeing Stitch Fix everywhere and decided to give it a go.

I used 4/5 pieces from my first box to create these outfits below.  Unfortunately, the jeans I received were way too short for my 5'10" legs so they are not pictured. 

Look #1- Maxi Dress (and bracelet)

I really love this dress and it is something I probably would not have picked out for myself. When I first tried it on, I was not a fan but the more I paired with it the more I realized how gorgeous and versatile it really is!  I didn't keep it, hat it been the start of Summer I may have considered it but we are already into Fall here!

Look #2- Sheer Striped Top

Overall, cute top.  A tad small around my hips though!

Look #3- Poncho

My favorite piece in the box!  Unfortunately, the price was not right (and I have a black and white sweater wrap that is similar).

Overall, I really did like what I received in my box but unfortunately, the prices were not in my spending range!  However, I did keep the bracelet :)

I love these shorts, my husband has been making fun of me whenever he sees me wearing them...laughing and saying "Kristine's wearing Jorts!"   Oh well, I get over it quickly.

Shades of Turquoise

I wore this outfit for a girls day in Santa Fe with my bestie this weekend. 

When you live in New Mexico, turquoise is a must...it's practically everywhere you look.  I decided to mix different shades of turquoise all into one outfit between my necklace, rings and earrings.  I have always LOVED turquoise on red which is why I chose this red striped top to pair it with.

Oversized Sweater

What better to wear on a lazy Sunday than a cozy oversized sweater?

I decided to go with a sweater due to our random snow storm the day before and the crazy weather here in New Mexico lately.  Luckily, the snow melted quick and we are back to spring weather!

Mixin' It Up

It is finally warm enough to comfortably wear flats without freezing my toes off!! 

I wore this outfit to work with black boots (and my work vest of course) but once I arrived home I changed into this pair of teal flats and threw on my striped coat for a fun pattern mix of leopard print and stripes.

St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day was fantastic this year! 

Of course I had to find a fun way to wear my green and what better way to wear green then with a sparkly skirt!  This skirt goes from pretty outdoors to gorgeous inside when it catches the indoor light.  I was lucky enough to catch this gold pleated skirt brand new with tags on eBay for only $10 (originally $56 at NY&C).  I received sooo many complements on this skirt, I absolutely love it!

Blue All Over

I wore this outfit to what felt like my first time out in weeks!  

Karaoke has started back up at the local pub and my husband and I are running it together. I was super excited being that, recently, most of my days are spent working or at home on the couch with a hot pack on my side and pain meds in my belly. Unfortunately, I'm still not feeling well...what I thought was going to be an easy, "let's take out your gallbladder and your pain will go away" type of thing ended up being more of a "hmmm, your test results aren't matching up with any of your symptoms... and by the way you have a mysterious cyst hanging out near your kidney".  Starting to feel like I am on an episode of House M.D.

Back to this outfit...

I don't know why it took me this long to realize that hi-rise jeans/jeggings are MAGIC! 

"What is this...you mean to tell me I don't need to constantly be pulling on my pants up to make sure I don't have a muffin top showing?!?  NO BELT REQUIRED!?!?"  It's the little things...

Midi Ring HERE

I love the look of midi rings and had to give them a try.  The one pictured below fits great and doesn't bug me or feel like it's going to slide off (which is what I was concerned about).  What do you think of midi rings?
