Fit Review Friday! Non-Stop Bomber Jacket Chrome & Speed Up Short Radiant Multi


Happy Friday everyone! Can't believe another week has gone by. How is everyone's holiday shopping  going? I'm still trying to figure out what to get my mom and my sister. In the mean time here are some of my Lululemon purchases. I know it's super cold right now, but I couldn't pass up these Speed Up Shorts in radiant multi. The new version is growing on me. I do think the cut is more flattering for petites.

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms and tops. In some cases I can size down in outerwear.



The colors are not as vibrant in person as you see on the website. They are definitely more muted in real life. Even so, I love the print so much I am keeping these. It's too bad I have to wait a few months before I can wear them!


Next up I finally found a size 2 in the chrome Non-Stop Bomber Jacket that's reversible. I know I'm super late in the game for this jacket. I missed out on it last year and waited almost too long to get it this year. This jacket I was able to size down to a 2. It's also loose enough for me to layer underneath it. 



The sleeves are a little long but not too long that it bothers me. The style is a bit boxy and shapeless and actually kind of makes me look a little pregnant when zipped up! I do think this would look better on someone who is taller than I am. The color is a silver platinum that isn't too shiny. The contrasting hem is a pale lavender that works really well with the chrome.




On the reverse side of the bomber is pale lavender in color. It has an interesting texture that reminds me of crinkled paper almost. It's a little hard to describe. Between the two sides I prefer the dark chrome. 



The dark chrome side does not have pockets but the pale lavender side does. Overall it's a cute jacket and definitely worth the money. You get two jackets for the price of one. As of right now the dark chrome is sold out online, but black and dark olive are still available. I tried on the black a few weeks ago at the store and also liked that one but prefer the dark chrome the most. 


That's all for me! Hope everyone has a great weekend! My holiday part is tomorrow night and on Sunday I have a wrestling show to go to. That should be interesting! It'll be my first wrestling show ever.

  3. I just received my radiant speeds in the mail. I wish I saw your post before I ordered them lol 😩I will keep them- they are still pretty and galactic-like which I love. Usually i go to a store to pick the best pattern placement and see real life colors but I didn’t this time. Might not have bought them in store but I’m mostly disappointed how misleading the photos are on lululemon website. They’re so vibrant on the site. It’s my first pair of speed ups and hopefully I can like them like the old fit!!! I have to wait til warmer weather also haha. Thanks for all your great reviews and photos!!

    1. It is quite annoying how the photos on the website are misleading. I've found that to be true ever since they started posting high contrast pictures. I've returned a few items because of the color being disappointing in real life.

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

  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.
