It's that time again! Time to peek into my latest Stitch Fix arrival. After receiving an awesome fix last month of legging-friendly tops and sweaters, I requested a variety of fall attire this time around and my stylist Layla delivered. I'm so excited to share a fun fall Stitch Fix review on the blog today.

Mabel Button Detail Striped Pullover
The first item I tried on from my fall Stitch Fix box was a black and white striped Mabel Button Detail Striped Pullover from Loveapella ($68). The sweater fit like a glove, but was a bit more form-fitting than I usually like my sweaters to be. I decided to embrace the fit and channel my inner Audrey Hepburn! I paired the sweater with a slim fit pair of black pants and my matte black Tieks.
I must admit that even though the fit of this sweater was a little out of my comfort zone, I really loved how chic it was! I accessorized it simply with my silver Kate Spade watch and my silver and white Kendra Scott Elisa necklace.
Aside from the fact that the bottom of my sweater was folded up in these photos (oops!), this look was an instant classic. I was so tempted to keep the Mabel Button Detail Striped Pullover, but I ultimately decided to send it back. It was such a fabulous sweater and I love the outfit that I centered around it, but I know myself too well. And I will always choose a sweater that doesn't hug my curves over a form-fitting one. So I decided to spare myself the guilt of having a really gorgeous sweater living in my closet that I never actually wear.
But if this look fits your style, you should pin one of these photos to your style board on Pinterest ASAP. You won't regret it.
People ask all the time about my Tieks. The biggest question is do I really love them and the answer is a resounding yes! You can read my answers to just about every question imaginable about Tieks in this blog post. I didn't hold anything back.
Genifer Tie-Back Knit Top
The next item I tried was the Genifer Tie-Back Knit Top from Loveapella ($58). Oh my word, this classic, simple sweater was just my style. Effortlessly classic and comfortable, it was the perfect sweater to wear with a pair of lightly distressed skinny jeans. And my Ballerina Pink Tieks completed the look.
This sweater from Stitch Fix was a perfect fit and wasn't too clingy. It was a great, modest piece to add to my wardrobe. I accessorized the outfit with my new Kendra Scott Benning necklace (which I adore and is no longer available. Get the similar Aiden necklace while you can!), a simple blue and gold stretch bracelet from Charming Charlie and my rose gold and white ceramic watch (similar here).
I wear a white tank top under almost all of my tops and sweaters, but sometimes I like to change things up and wear a top extender from Grace and Lace. This time around, I wore my scalloped lace extender in ivory. I adore the feminine touch that the pop of lace added to the look!
I think you probably already figured out that I kept the Genifer Tie-Back Knit Top. There really wasn't any debate at all. It was an automatic keeper.
Asa Knit Blazer
The third item for my November Stitch Fix review was a green Asa Knit Blazer from Skies are Blue ($68). I don't wear blazers very often because they feel a little too dressy for life in a kindergarten classroom, but I'm always happy for an excuse to dress up in traditional work wear. I grabbed my black slim fit dress pants (similar here), some fun black heels (similar), and the lace top from Hinge that I received in my July Trunk Club box.
I also added the same Benning necklace (similar), white ceramic and rose gold watch (similar) and a gold Kendra Scott bracelet (similar here). It was such a great look! I was disappointed to see that the lace top I wore is no longer in stock, but Old Navy currently has several tops in stock with lace trim that are very budget friendly!
I kinda loved the blazer, but I knew that I had to find a way to dress it down a little if I was going to keep it. I traded the dress pants for a pair of flare leg jeans (I bought these at Old Navy several years ago – way before I ever met Rob and I'm so happy they are finally back in style! Similar flare jeans here.)
Of course a blazer does require you to make a bit of an effort while wearing it, so I added some nude heels (similar here) and a fun fall-print scarf (similar here).
I loved this look so much, I couldn't resist. I kept the blazer. Now let's hope I actually wear it because it is way too great of an item to hide in my closet!

That stripe sweater looks really great on you!

That dress was amazing! I wouldn’t have kept it either without a good reason to wear it, but it was so great on you!
Why is the loveappella top called tie-back? does it have an interesting back?
Thanks for hosting another link up!
Hi Maria! I love the blue sweater paired with the top extender! I’m thinking of asking for a top extender for my birthday but I’m not sure what size I would need- do you mind sharing what size you wear? I think we have similar proportions. Thanks!
Hi Erin! The top extenders are pretty roomy and even have some stretch to them. I usually wear a small or medium in regular shirts and a small top extender fits with room to spare!
What a wonderful box of items Maria! I loved everything you kept and I think you look gorgeous in that dress you returned. ( though I totally hear you; sometimes all I need from my SF boxes is casual pieces.) Thanks for the link-up party. <3 XOXO, Elif
I got that vest in black last week and loved it!! The red is definitely very bright for you. I love my black. I hope you find one you like!!
What a great box! Everything looked great on you.
I love all the outfits they are super cute ?
That blazer looks great on you! The color is perfect. I’m sure the material will make it feel less dressy and more comfortable while managing a classroom of kindergarteners!
I love your slim black dress pants. The quality and fit looks perfect; just what I have been looking for to wear at work. By chance, do you have the name of the brand? Are they the ones by Express? Thank you! :)
Mine are from The Limited, but I found a similar pair at Express! Here is an affiliate link for the Express pants: http://rstyle.me/cz-n/b4gwqsbjbcf
Thank you for responding! It’s pretty awesome that you and Rob take the time to comment when you can. I really appreciate the info. and was so excited that The Limited was having a great sale and I found an amazing coupon code that saved me a ton of money on my purchase. I feel like I live vicariously through you guys (just kidding but not really). :)
Hi Crystal! We try to respond as often as possible and I’m so glad to hear that you got a great deal!
Cute!! I always come here for ideas to Pin for my SF requests.
I wish you had posted a picture of the back of the Tie-Back Knit Top (since it sounds from the name like that is where the detail is in that top)..
We love stitch fix and have been using them for years. If you have children try Wee Blessing as its pretty much stitch fix for kids! They style both boys and girls!
Great fix!! The blazer is great!
I just got my first Stitch Fix and it was great. I love the service! Looks like you had some great things in your box. I would have a hard time returning that dress – it’s just lovely!
Thank you for the link to that beautiful dress on Nordstrom. I just got my first SF box and was curious how the pricing was from them v’s independently. Glad to hear that they get some great deals and then pass them along!
You are very welcome. Sometimes the prices go the other way, but the Maggy London dress was a definite bargain!
Hi, Maria! I love following your stitch fix reviews! You have such cute clothes! I’ve recently started blogging my fixes with WordPress, but I can’t seem to pin my pictures with a link to my blog. The picture will pin, but that’s all you can see. Any tips? Thanks! https://stitchfixaddictblog.wordpress.com/2016/11/27/fix-4-november-2016/
It’s so funny to me that you didn’t keep that striped sweater, because I’ve had the photo of you wearing it pinned on my style board for at least a year at this point and STILL can’t find a sweater like it for my own closet. I found a similar Halogen sweater last winter, but it got a hole after the first washing. Such a bummer! :)
It’s so frustrating when you REALLY want something and it just doesn’t come your way. It’s also incredibly frustrating that the sweater you DID buy got a hole so quickly.
