Review - Radiant Jacket!

Now that I've worn the Radiant Jacket a few times I'd like to give a proper review of it.  I like that it is longer and covers most of my bum, it is pretty warm and is a nice change from wearing my Scuba Hoodies constantly.  It is nicely fitted and I bought my usual size 2 in outerwear.  My only complaint about the jacket are the pockets.  They are perfect for keeping my hands warm and toasty, but definitely do not put your phone in there.  I made that mistake and the phone fell out.  Not once but twice!  The pockets are too shallow.  One other small complaint is when I'm sitting, the band at the bottom of the jacket tends to flip up.  It doesn't really bother me too much, but it is noticeable.  Overall, definitely a cute jacket and I'll be wearing it a lot in this 50s Boston winter weather!



Side note, I ran into Lululemon today just to see if there was anything new.  I didn't have a lot of time to try anything on but they had the new Scuba Hoodie I ordered and should arrive tomorrow.   Hopefully I'll have some pics of it on soon.  One thing to note, they are not as soft as some of the heathered colors.  Just a warning!  They a bit stiff.

Also Athleta is having a pretty good sale right now so I ordered the Down With It Jacket in XXS.  The fit is overall okay.  It's only semi fitted.  The arms are pretty loose on me so if I wanted to wear a Define Jacket underneath it would fit with no problems.  I like the color and for $69, why not keep it?  (I used a lot of Rewards and had a 20% off coupon.)  Sorry for the craptastic photos but I hope to have better lighting when I move out of this apartment!

    I also love the radiant jacket although I now wish I had stuck with my usual size. I must have been bloated when I tried it on, and now it's pretty much sold out everywhere. thanks for your reviews and pics.

Review! Coach Soft Empire Carryall 40 Merlot

  I am super excited about this review! This has been the most anticipated Coach bag since The Rogue came out. At least for me. When I first saw this bag on the purseblog , my eyes widened and I was immediately obsessed. The Soft Empire Carryall comes in four sizes. Size 48 is ridiculously big, I cannot pull it off, but the 40? Perfect. Size 35 and 26 just doesn't give off the same wow factor. This bag is meant to be a statement piece and head turner. Kudos to Stewart Vevers for creating another hit that everyone will be obsessing over for a long time. I hear that more colors will be released soon, and I am hoping the distressed lived-in version will not be exclusive to size 48. In case it doesn't happen, I'll be using my Empire 40 as much as I can to give it a distressed look myself.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and please check out my video to see what fits! Coach Empire 40 Merlot This bag is huge, it's definitely the biggest bag in my collection. ...

Review! Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Size Small Plus Video

  You all know I love my bags, and as a Balenciaga collector, I don't often stray from the City and First style. The Rodeo (pronounced like Rodeo Drive) really caught my eye. It gives off a slouchy Hermes Kelly vibe, but way more practical to use.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Small The Rodeo can be carried a few ways. It comes with a crossbody strap that is not adjustable but it is removable. Not sure why anyone wouldn't add a few extra holes to make a strap adjustable these days. Come on Balenciaga! Do better! The top handle is a bit too long for this to work anyhow, I feel like the top handle gets in the way. It sticks out and doesn't sit well in my opinion. I wouldn't carry this bag crossbody unless it was an unforeseen emergency and I really needed my hands free. This bag looks more chic carried by the handle or crook of the arm. It also looks nice left open with the help of the flap tucked in. The Rodeo resembles the Kelly bag ...

Fit Review Friday! Allbirds Tree Glider

  Hi everyone! I'm posting from New Orleans. I'm hitting up a Lululemon while I'm here. I always like to visit other Lululemon stores when I'm traveling. I was planning on having an Aviator Nation review for you guys but Hurricane Helene threw my plans out the window. So I will try and have it up when I get back to Atlanta. In the meantime, here's an Allbirds review.  For reference my street size is 5.5. I'm usually a 5.5 in Allbirds, but for the Tree Gliders they run large. I took these in a size 5. Definitely size down. I've partnered up with Allbirds! Super excited to share my  personal link . Click on  my link  for a 15% off.
