Stitch Fix #24: A post-baby wardrobe!

You guys. WHY has it been so long since I've blogged?! Seriously, where did the time go?! 

In short, here's what happened. We had an incredible fall that was mostly spent soaking up time with our little man, working on projects around the house, and prepping for baby Putt 2.0 (surprise! It's a boy, born last month, and I'll have his birth story up on the blog soon!)! We've been a family in transition, and blogging unfortunately took a backseat this year. BUT, it's going to be a higher priority going forward, and I'm looking forward to getting some writing done again! 

It had been FOREVER since I got a Stitch Fix. I did get one maternity Fix early on in my pregnancy because I knew we were going to Vegas for KEEP's conference, and I wanted some cute and fashionable maternity clothes to take with me. I scored an adorable dress (the same one I ended up wearing to my baby sprinkle this fall - total winner!)! But I think that was my only Fix this year! So, about three weeks before I had Harrison, I got an email from Stitch Fix that they'd like me to get another Fix, and they were even willing to pay my styling fee! UMMM, yes! I explained that I was due to have a baby any day, and they told me they would delay my Fix until December AND focus on post baby basics.

If you don't know about Stitch Fix (<--Referral link!), let me give you a little rundown. Stitch Fix is a clothing subscription service, and you decide how frequently, or infrequently, you'd like a shipment. You'll fill out a detailed style profile about your sizes, style preferences, and budget (and it's super fun to fill out the profile to see what your style preferences are!). Not only does Stitch Fix offer clothing, but they have accessories, bags, and even shoes now! They style both men and women, and they offer extended sizes. You pay a $20 styling fee that gets applied to your purchase, but right now, if you sign up for your first /fix through my link, your first styling fee is waived. Zero risk! And, if someone signs up through your referral link, you get a $25 credit to use toward your next purchase! (And let me tell you, that adds up to some awesome free close!)

For this Fix, my main girl Serena was on the job! She had been on maternity leave for my last Fix, so I know she knows new momma comfort needs. 

And side note. Before you see these pictures, I'd like to remind you that I'm two weeks post-partum. And these were taken at night. After three days of not being able to find the time to take said pictures in the first place. I have to keep reminding myself it took nine months to put on the baby weight, and I can't expect a flat stomach overnight... but I SO wish I could! 

1. Skies are Blue Ortega Open Knit Perforated Cardigan, $48

2. MTLA Kristin Fleece Cable Knit Leggings, $38

Okay, this outfit is totally in my wheelhouse - post-baby or not! I LOVE the jewel tone of the sweater, and there's a really sweet scalloped edge at the bottom. And although you can't see the texture of the leggings here, the cable knit is really beautiful. They're actually a navy color, but, bad lighting. Because so, so tired. I like that this is an easy throw on and go outfit and super nursing friendly. 

3. Pink CLOVER Aysse Cross Back Pullover, $48

Oh, hi, check out the cutest little photo bomber! I really should have gotten a picture of the back of this sweater, because there was a sweet little criss cross at the top. But I'm just not sure I'm digging this one. I don't love the knit of the sweater, and I'm not sure this is a good color for me. But I DO love that it's long enough to wear with leggings! 

4. Octavia Fia Plaid Square Scarf, $28 

I love the colors of this scarf, and I think if I was keeping this sweater, it would look amazing together! I've been wearing more infinity scarves than anything else lately, but I love the lightweight feel of this one. I think I need to Pinterest new ways to tie my scarves though... I struggled with this one. But again, so, so tired (are you sensing the trend here?!). 

5. Crescent Ash Cold Shoulder Knit Top, $42

I kind of LOVE the cold shoulder trend - in fact, my favorite maternity top this time around was a cold shoulder top! And I love the length of this (plus, hello, floral sleeves!)! BUT, this one is tough to get up and down quickly for nursing the babe, and I'm worried by the time that ship sails, this top might no longer be trendy. What do we think?! 

So, that's my most recent Fix. I'd LOVE your feedback on what to keep and what to send back, sweet friends! And, if you're ready to try it for yourself, you can fill out the super fun style profile (and waive your first styling fee) here!
