The Avid Bruxist Fixes Her Stitches, Part the Fifth, or I’M GETTING IT

Hiyo, fashionistas! I’m back with another Fix! (See Parts 1, 2, 3, and 4.)

First, the Definitely-Like-Its:

Iglesia Pleated Blouse from Papermoon and Elvira Natural Stone Pendant Necklace by Zad

Here’s my consult with Kate:

Me: Shirt looks boring in pic, but I like it. Pleats in front. Navy. Looks black in pic. Sleeves roll up and button if I’m in the mood. Necklace is kinda cray, but I think it’s a statement piece. RIGHT? DOES IT TIE THINGS TOGETHER?!

Kate: Hahaha, you knew exactly what I was gonna say! Totally dig the necklace.

SCORE ONE, ME.

Hey look, a dress that covers *almost* all of my thigh cellulite:

Papermoon (again) Weston Faux Wrap Dress; up underneath: Bandelettes, still good but not perfect–I chafe a little around them; red Frye flats, which I’m gonna have to bag–I can’t take the hurtiness anymore. Anybody with the foot-width of a normal human want to buy a pair of size 7 Frye flats that’ve been worn six times?

Kate’s only question about the dress was, “Does it keep ladies covered when you move?” I assured her it did, and she gave me the thumbs up.

Now, for the Others:

Papermoon (yet again) Kasidy Swing Skirt

I really wasn’t sure what I thought about it, so I messaged Kate. She said she liked it but didn’t love it. She told me swishy isn’t really my “best silhouette” but that I “kill a pencil”*. I sent the swishy skirt back.

(*Oh yeah, I have a pencil skirt in my closet that Kate made me buy a couple years ago. Wonder if it fits my post-pregnancy midriff.)

Here’s my exchange with Kate about them:

I’VE BECOME THE TEACHER.

ALL YOUR FAYSHUN RULES ARE BELONG TO ME.

Not really, of course, but it’s nice to know that, three years in, I’m finally learning how this shit works. Self high-five.

Stay tuned for future Fixes!

And if you want to try Stitch Fix yourself, please use this link because they’ll give me a $25 credit, and in return I’ll give you an internet high-five or smooch, your choice.
