I'm going to show my Stitch Fix Box #20 in two posts. In this post I will share this gorgeous maxi dress I received and in my next post I will share everything else since it all went together and I was able to wear it in one complete outfit.
In the personal note my stylist wrote, she said "As we enter September, I have a Fix filled with transitional pieces to help you navigate the tricky weather of the next several weeks. Although the temps are still warm in (insert city here), try this breathable-in-rayon maxi dress from French Grey combined with the textured jacket from Market & Spruce to incorporate the styles of fall without over-heating!". Well, I tried the maxi dress with the jacket she sent me. I liked that look, and the jacket, but I preferred it with my own denim jacket.
I liked the way the soft light blue of the jacket picked out the soft light blue in the print of the dress.
The dress is a halter style, which is very flattering on a larger bust figure like mine. It has an elastic waist. I would love to try a belt sometime over the elastic portion of the dress too.
The back has a large keyhole opening.
It's the perfect maxi dress for fall when worn with a blazer, cardigan, or jacket because there are no sleeves to bunch up underneath the outerwear. But I'm really looking forward to wearing it in hot weather next summer for it is very cool and comfortable.
I wore all pearl jewelry to pick out the white in the dress.
Being large busted, I'm always self conscious of showing too much cleavage. The halter style solves that problem for me!
For shoes, I chose these nude 9 West wedges (old).
The dress is by French Grey and is called "Nichelle Knit Maxi Dress".
Now I know you always are interested in what my husband thinks when it comes to my Stitch Fix box as he always picks out the winners! He liked everything in my Stitch Fix box too, but this was his FAVORITE piece. He walked into the room and when he saw me wearing it he said "Wow! You look great! That dress fits you so well!". I was surprised by his reaction because he usually doesn't like me in maxi dresses because he likes to see my legs. It must have been the halter top that sold him!
Have a Great Day! Amy

ReplyDeleteHope to see you again next week! Enjoy your week!
Thanks so much Karren! That so exciting to be featured!
DeleteHow fun that you kept so many things! I love this maxi and the color and pattern on you! The halter is a really cute detail and I think sometimes maxi dresses overwhelm a frame but showing off your shoulders and arms definitely works!

Thanks Ruth. I so agree about maxi's. That's a good point I didn't think of before.
DeleteCannot WAIT to see what all was in your box. If this dress is any indication, it's all spectacular. What pretty detailing on the back of this dress. I've seen similar prints all over the stores so this must be the latest thing. You look lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks Leslie! The rest of my Stitch Fix box was posted last Monday! Check it out!
