Sarita Gets a Stitch Fix!

Guys, Sarit has had almost as big of a November as me. (I mean, I went to Nepal. She just got married. Hi Abe!) In addition to having a very beautiful and fun wedding, she got her first Stitch Fix!

Jewish weddings are not just one day, you see. I mean, the weddings themselves are one day, but there's something called an aufruf the Shabbat before, and then there's a whole week of Sheva Brachot afterwards. Yup, seven days of parties. We know how to rock it.

Anyway, as you might imagine, all of these things require many outfits. Combine that with the fact that Sarit has a new job that requires her to get up in front of 500 people most Saturdays, it was time for some new dresses!

One thing to know about Sarit-- she's petite, so some of the dresses were sent in petite sizes. Short fixers, take note!

As you can see from the style card above, her stylist followed directions carefully, and sent some great options. And so three days before the wedding, we had a fashion show. Because what else would you do then?

If she had kept everything, it would have been $302.50 with the discount. Pricey, yes, but we will see that there was one dress that drove the price way up. Let's get to it!

 Donna Morgan Cam Gathered Waist Dress in blue-- $118

This was our pricey dress. As you can see, it fits perfectly. As you can also see, it is really not meant for fall. She might have been tempted to keep it, as all three of us (Sarit, Abe, me) liked it, but it was so not seasonable that there was no real reason to keep it. The cost was also not a plus.

Collective Concepts Vickie Textured Dress in Black-- $78

Her face says it all. It was just too big. This is why petites are important. (This was a regular size, not a petite.) The texture, which you can see below, is pretty cool, but it didn't really do anything for her. She was not sad to see this one go.

41Hawthorn Leone Dress in Navy-- $78

Isn't she so cute??? Anyway. I liked this dress a lot but she was not convinced. Sarit tends not to wear a lot of a-line dresses-- she's more of a sheath girl-- so it was a little out of her comfort zone. I thought it looked adorable, but ultimately there were other better options. It went into the maybe pile but then ended up a no. Good bye cute dress!

Brixon Ivy Aurinda Dress in Blue-- $78:

We all looooved this one. It's so pretty! As you can see, it's a lovely blue lace and fits like it was made for her. The sleeves were good for synagogue and the color and texture made it a little more special. Sarit wore it to the Friday night dinner of her wedding and looked beautiful.
Status: Kept!

Collective Concepts Helma Dress in Black:

This was the one that required a little bit of work. The picture isn't amazing, I'm realizing now, but the dress is a waffle-y fabric that's black with gold undertones. Sarit's first reaction to it was, "Did they send me this because they think I spend a lot of time going clubbing???" My first reaction was, "OMG it looks amazing!" It's true that the gold was a little edgier than what we might have expected, but... if you add a black shell underneath and black tights and boots, and it's so cute! And sure enough, Sarit decided to keep it and wore it to her aufruf styled just like that and got so many compliments. My many years of modesty experience finally came in handy. Useful skills, people. Useful skills.
Status: Kept!

So there you have it! Dresses galore, all for an adorable and petite newly married rabbi. Do you want to get in on the fun? Try your own fix here!
