Major Fit Review! Scuba Hoodie III, Define Jacket, Speed Crop, Swiftly LS, Runderful LS, 5 Mile LS, Think Fast Hoodie, In A Cinch LS, In The Flow Crop

Holy mother of reviews!  I must have grabbed 10 pieces to try on in the fitting room today.  And I easily spent over 30 minutes in there trying everything on.  

For reference I am 4 feet 11 and usually a size 4 in tops and a size 4 in bottoms.  

The store near me had the Define Jacket that was on top of my wish list.  However after trying it on, I wasn't that impressed.  The photos on the website made it look fantastic and luxurious.  But the material wasn't as soft as I was hoping for and it felt kind of stiff on me.  The color is more pink than red.  I left it at the store.  This was TTS for me.

Next up, my store still had one of these Flashback Static Tender Violet Scuba Hoodies in a size 2.  Fabric was stiff as expected with these patterns and it bunched a bit at the waist.  Easy pass.

 I don't normally like Speed Crops but I wanted to see if the new giant herringbone would tempt me to buy a pair.  These weren't bad, but because I'm so vertically challenged, the bottom of the crops are always loose on me since they fall to my ankles.  That always makes me sad.  The extra large pockets are big enough to slip your phone in.  This was TTS for me.

My second most wanted item for the week is the Swiftly LS in Heathered Dashing Purple.  I'd like to announce I finally have a Swiftly LS in my collection!  The color is really pretty.  My only tiny complaint is the tightness in the arms.  I'm hoping they will stretch after a few wears.  I'll have a better review on this once I get a run in.  I'm checking the weather app, and it looks like it warms up a little this weekend.  45 degrees for Saturday, yay!

The Runderful Long Sleeve tee in Space Dye Camo Forage Teal is very soft and nicely thick Rulu.  Although it looks a little frumpy on me.  I blame my short torso.  This was also TTS.  I left this behind.

Next up is the 5 mile LS tee.  I was pleasantly surprised how much I actually liked this top.  If it weren't so scratchy on my dry hands I would have liked it even more.  But the price is a steep one - $78.  Ouch!  The fabric is thin Seriously Light Luon.  It's also very stretchy and comfortable to wear.  It even has an opening for your smart watch, pretty nifty.  The length is pretty long on me, but I actually didn't mind it.  I love the cute detailing on the back.  I also tried on a size 4, and it is definitely looser than the Swiftly LS tee.  I don't think I would have sized down though.

I don't have a smart watch, but the Fitbit will do.  Who knew trying on clothes would get my heart rate up?

The Think Fast Hoodie in herringbone is seriously cute!  I love it!  Buuuuuuuut- and this is a huge but for me, I run on the hot side and this is made of thick buttery soft Rulu, I would just turn into a furnace in this, so for me, this is a no.  If you run on the cold side, I would highly recommend this!  Fit is TTS for me.

I also did a little browsing in the mark down section.  For anyone considering the In A Cinch LS tee, I highly recommend it.  I tried on the purple and the light gray.  I normally LOVE all things purple, but I was very surprised at how soft the heathered gray looked on me.  It just screams cuddle with me right now!  I sized down in this top to a size 2, and it was very roomy and comfortable on.  The length was very nice and I thought it fit well for a sweatshirt.  Price was marked down to $69.  I'm wearing this as I type up this post!

This is reversible as well.  However, I don't think I would ever wear it with the stripes on the outside.

Purple Stripes in the reversible side

In the Flow crops are always a favorite of mine.  I was stoked to find these marked down to $64.  Totally mine!  The print placement was good on the front and back too.  I usually take these in a size 6.  The size 4 is always too tight in the hip and thigh area.

That's it for me!  Hope you liked my post, leave a comment if there's anything you would like to see a review of!

  1. Thanks for the great reviews. I bought the think fast in herringbone earlier this week and love it. The 5 mile looks good on you. I hope my store gets the tiger space dye version in this week. And thanks to you, that define is now off my list. Lol. Great finds on md!

    1. Lucky! I really wish I didn't run on the hot side. I just get hot so easily, so the think fast really wouldn't do me any good. but i am loving the cinch LS tee!

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. ...

Did You Know There Are Two Different Ugg Companies? Review - UGG Lowmel

  So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos.  The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels. UGG Lowmel Sand   Size Kids 4 I typically wear size 5.5 and I decided to try the kids size 4 which actually fit well, if just a smidge large...

First Impressions! On Cloudmonster Void

  Happy Friday! I've been branching out into other brands for footwear. I mentioned in a previous post I just don't think my Allbirds are cutting it anymore. Allbirds are more of a casual walking shoe. Anything over 10K, my feet start to hurt. I have tried Hokas, and they seem to be decent so far, I can walk 12K steps a day and haven't had issues. However, I am loving the On Cloudmoster Void even more! For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in Allbirds which is my normal street size for sneakers and I am also wearing size 5.5 in On Cloudmonster Void. On CloudMonster Void Ivory | Wolf Size 5.5 (Currently on sale for 20% off -  $135) I'm not a huge fan of logos on my shoes. I decided on this colorway because I love the light gray and lilac combo and it does have a big On logo, but it blends in nicely with the colors. It still has a minimalistic vibe.  This shoe has a 6mm heel to toe shoe drop. This is a good height if you're a heel to toe striker which I am. This is...
