Fit Review Friday! Define Jacket, Wunder Under Hi-Rise Tight 7/8, Swiftly Racerback, Vinyasa Wrap

Yay for Friday! Another week done and dusted. I'm always amazed at how fast time goes by. Okay, so most of these items aren't new items to review and I've done a lot of posts on the Define Jacket, but this coco pique is just so soft I can't get over how much I like it. I think I like it more than my herringbone version. 😱

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically wear a size 4 in tops and bottoms.



Like all Define Jackets, these are very fitted to the body but the coco pique version is slightly more softer and has a nice amount of stretch, more so than my herringbone version. Fit is still true to size.


Total love!

I also wanted to take better photos of my new Wunder Under Hi-Rise Tight. This is my first pair in this particular version of WU. I love that the inseam is only 28 inches. This means I do not have to hem these! Perfect, even for a shortie like me! They scrunch just the right amount and no baggy ankles. I've already worn these a bunch of times and did a BBG workout in these and they're so awesome. I'm a fan of nulux and these feel like I'm not wearing anything. Super comfortable and I love the cool feel of the fabric, since I tend to run hot pretty easily. 



These are hi-rise and they come right up to my belly button. Compression is very light and are opaque in the bend over test although they do stretch to white in a deep bend. The colors are just so vibrant in real life, they do not disappoint. I've noticed Lululemon updated the photos with new ones. I think they are much much better than the washed out version they had a couple of weeks ago.


These are definitely not for running. I did try to run in these just to see if they would slip down like I've read in some reviews. They did slip, but only just a little, but enough that it would bother me if I had to run for a long period of time. 


Next, Swiftly Racerback in the black/white. Just wanted to show a couple of more photos of this outfit I put together. I'm wearing my Werkshop leggings in Onyx. Just out of curiosity, how many of you still have not tried on a pair of Werkshop leggings yet, but want to? And if you have not, what is stopping you?



I would definitely be interested in purchasing more Swiftly tanks with this sort of speckled paint on other solid colors. It's definitely a little more interesting than plain solid colors. (I'm the type that gets bored of things quick, not something my husband likes to hear, lol.)


I finally bit the bullet and bought a Vinyasa Wrap from WMTM. I'm a huge Vinyasa Scarf fan and wanted to see what the difference was. You can still wear it around your neck like a normal Vinyasa Scarf.


I tried to style the wrap in a few different ways, just to see how it looked on my petite frame. I think I almost got this drape to work fairly nicely. The color looks great with the concrete jungle print.


The major difference between the scarf and the wrap is being able to wear the wrap like a cape/poncho. I initially thought having that stripe across the back was a little weird, but now I kind of like it. 


I also wanted to show the two different sides of the scarf. I love the second side more because of the gritty look of it. The top version is very pretty and clean look at, but the bottom just looks very dark and head turning. It makes you want to touch it. At least for me!



Hope you all have a great weekend! I'm super excited to get my Fast and Free Crop and Tight tomorrow. I hope one of them fits me, particularly the crop. Check back next week for my review!

  1. Love all of your new kit 💛 I've not tried Werkshop yet but I will eventually! I'm heading to Lulu in ZH for a class with a friend and to return my Step to it jacket. Currently loving my new heathered white Scuba iii which I just got this week. I sold my star crushed black cherry one 😀

    1. Ohhh is it the heathered vapor one? I was totally eyeing that myself. Is it very soft? If I get another hoodie, I definitely need to off some of my old ones on ebay!

    2. It's just called "heathered white", it's the 3 not the 4 ;) tried the Scuba 4 in the shop but really don't like the fit. Ended up coming home with my 2nd Scuba 3 in heathered sapphire ❤ am selling another Scuba 2 😉

    3. Ohh okay, yeah I agree I definitely prefer the Scuba 3 over the Scuba 4. I'm surprised the stores still carry the 3. I don't think I've seen one lately? I never liked the Scuba 2s because they felt too restricting for me. Scuba 3 was perfect.

  2. Woo i fancy your wup concrete jungle!! I love the placement on yours. Some others have "almost" identical placement on each side of leg and looked awful. If the price stayed at $98, I'd bought them already but I can't believe it went up to $128 and i don't want to spend that much since it was already $98 once.
    I still want the crane leggings from werkshop but I'm not sure if I can pull it out. They are super cute but maybe too much graphics for my ootd taste. (Most of my bottoms are just sold colors. Yes, I know I'm boring. lol)
    Btw thanks for the fit review!! I always wait for this on Friday. :)

    1. I think it was an error at $98. I was pretty lucky I snagged it before they changed it to the correct price. I think all Nulux pieces cost roughly $30 more than the usual prices. It is pretty steep, that's why I only buy if I really love it! I think you can pull off the crane leggings from Werkshop. Plus you can always return it for something else down the road?

  3. Love the Nulux Concrete Jungle on you!! Thanks for the tip about running in them! Totally love your black/white swiftly w/ Werkshop Onyx outfit. The black/white swiftly fit is so nice and I like that it's mostly solid but has the little white to break it up (I tend to own lots of dark solids...) Might have to copy you... :P

    How's the new job going? The Vinyasa Wrap looks like something perfect to keep at the office. Can't wait to read your Fast & Free review! Please try to run around in the crops if you can and let me know if it slips? Thanks!

    1. Thanks Shelley! Go for it and rock the outfit!
      New job is awesome. I love it here. The building is actually going on renovation at the moment, but we're moving back in next week. I'm going to have the best desk in the entire office! I can't wait to see the finished results. Will totally take a photo when it's all ready. And yes totally good idea about keeping the wrap at the office. I think I will!
      If I end up keeping either one of the Fast & Free bottoms I will totally do a test run in them for you!

We tried HelloFresh for the past two months - Here's our review

Hi everyone! This post is written by my husband. Some of you may know he does all the cooking around here. 😅 We noticed we were spending a lot of money on food and eating out every month and wanted to see if a meal kit service would save us money and time. After looking at a few meal kit services we settled on HelloFresh. Without further ado, here's Jared's review. (Original post date Aug 2022). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As you may have seen from Leslie's Instagram stories for the past 2 months, we've been using HelloFresh for most of our meals. The main drivers for this were to better track what we eat and because on the advice of my doctor, I should be eating more home cooked meals. Before I go any further, it should be noted that my original career path was in culinary arts, but twists and turns in life changed that. So I do have formal cooking experience. A little background story. Over the years, I've developed

Review! Lululemon's Large Everywhere Belt Bag Size Comparison Plus Video!

  Happy Friday! I can't believe it's almost Halloween! I actually have a dentist appointment on Halloween. One of my molars chipped and needs to be filled in. It's a tiny chip that I didn't even notice until my dentist pointed it out to me during my last visit. I'm not looking forward to it at all since I will need local anesthesia.
