Hello, gorgeous babies! Your fashion-challenged Avid Bruxist is back with another Fix. In fact, I’m one behind, so look for Part the Tenth shortly. (See parts 1<\/a>, 2<\/a>, 3<\/a>, 4<\/a>, 5<\/a>, 6<\/a>, 7<\/a>, and 8<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

First off, a blouse very similar to one I got in Fix 2, and it was just OK, you know?<\/p>\n

To be on the safe side, I consulted\u00a0Kate, as per uzh.<\/p>\n

Me: “This shirt–does she do anything for me?”<\/p>\n

Kate: “I think Patrick is voting no! Kind of hides your light under a bushel. And by light I mean your sweet rack and tiny waist. And by bushel I mean kinda cheap-looking, see-through fabric that looks like maternity wear. It’s a really good color, though! I tried to give you a compliment sandwich, but really it was a tostada of nope.”<\/p>\n

Lol. Tostada of nope. Have I mentioned lately how Kate’s my favorite?<\/p>\n

One thing I like about Stitch Fix is they pick things I’d never even glance at on the rack. For example, despite being re-educated about it<\/a>, my brain still insists on discounting black and navy as a combo, when in fact it’s a totally legit option in the year of our Lord two thousand sixteen. Take this shirt that went over better with Kate than the tostada of nope:<\/p>\n

These pants are a gordita of never. These pants are literally the worst pants in the world.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8655\"<\/a> \"IMG_8656\"<\/a>SLAPPED MY FACE AND CHALLENGED ME TO A DUEL LOLOLOLOL. If you don’t know Kate, I’m sorry.<\/p>\n

But then there were some pants that did not brandish Wogdon pistols at me:<\/p>\n

I’ll have to have them hemmed, but I thought they were very flattering. Kate agreed:<\/p>\n

Now you know: if you run into Lysse Mollie straight-leg, FMO, face-slapping, duel-challenging sweatpant-slacks in a store, GIVE THEM THE ASS.<\/p>\n

Moving on to accessories!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8658<\/a>She asked if I liked it, and I was like, yeah, it’s fine, but exactly how often do I expect to be making a statement like that? I teach sixth grade.\u00a0Decided to send it back.<\/p>\n

That’s it for Fix 9!\u00a0Dudettes, please use\u00a0this link<\/a>\u00a0to try Stitch Fix for yourself because if you do that, they\u2019ll give me a $25 credit, and I\u2019ll keep posting these silly blogs about it. (I don\u2019t get no monies for posting. No opinions have been swayed by monies.)<\/p>\n

Stay tuned for future Fixes!<\/p>\n
