Fix #7

Of course I was excited to get my fix with the same stylist from last time, Sunrise. In my note to my stylist I had asked for a faux leather jacket and some beautiful earrings. In advance, sorry for the yellow tinted pictures. Today was filled with a flat tire, our other car over heating on the way to Instacare and finding out my 3 year old broke her collar bone. So, the pictures had to be taken in the lovely glow of the entry way chandelier.

Papermoon
Tille Embroidery Detail Knit Top

I found this online when I peeked at my fix. I knew it was just the wrong thing for me. I gave it a chance and tried it one anyway, There was no saving this top. It felt a little Peruvian poncho to me and Steven said it reminded him of Pocahantas. I'm sure both references are off, regardless, it wasn't good. Also, what is with the automatic pregnant look? Not cool. The only saving grace was that it was INCREDIBLY soft.


Conclusion: Return


Level 99
Giovanni Straight Leg Jeans

My stylist saw on my Pinterest board that I liked the idea of colored jeans. These jeans actually fit amazingly and I loved how they looked. Unfortunately, I wasn't in love with the rust color. Had they been something of a more pure hue, I think I would have liked them better. The cost made them less appealing as well. Maybe next time.


Conclusion: Return


Market & Spruce
Derick Asymmetrical Knit Top

I didn't know how I would feel about this shirt when I first pulled it out. I felt like it just wasn't that flattering. I didn't love the asymmetrical-ness of this shirt, with one side being longer than the other. It just felt weird. Boo.


Conclusion: Return


RD Style
Rhonda Faux Leather Jacket

Yay, I was really excited for this. I was nervous what Steven would think because he had previously mentioned that he thinks leather jackets look stupid. Unfortunately for him, I fell in love with this jacket. It fits perfect and is super comfy. I couldn't wait to take the tags off and wear it as my own. Luckily for me, Steven changed his mind from thinking it looked "fine" to actually looking good.


Conclusion: Keep


Gorjana
Olympia Leaf Stud Earrings

Last, but not least, the earrings. I knew I would love these when I saw them. My stylist saw some earrings that were of similar style on my Pinterest board, so she sent these to me. And of course, I loved them. They have the simple beauty that I love in earrings, with just the right amount of interest. I also love that they can be casual or dressed up. My new favorite pair!



Conclusion: Keep


All in all, this fix feels like a win to me. I got the two things that I specifically asked for. I'm still going to keep the same stylist because she is very thoughtful. I've noticed that my previous fixes were sent out pretty quickly after they started working on them, and now they stay in the "Fix in Progress" for a few days before it gets shipped. Yay for my stylist, Sunrise!

P.S. Update from the last fix, I ended up returning the Loveappella Carnival Printed Knit Top. After only one wear, the fabric started pilling and fading across my chest and my shoulders. I figured it was wear from using my seat belt. I ended up returning it for a full refund.
