Fit Review Friday! In Power Mid Rise Crop 24



Happy Friday and I can't believe it's also May 1st. How crazy is that? March felt like it passed so slowly and April went by so fast. It's interesting how highly adaptable we are. 

This is a short review and before I begin I have to apologize for how wrinkled my gray tee is! I laughed when I saw the photos afterwards. 😂

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



I was curious to see if these crops would be petite friendly since they have a 24 inch inseam. My inseam is around 26 inches or so. I knew these would hit around my ankles and sure enough they do. I'm wearing my usual size 4 and I found these to run a bit large. There's a good chance I could have sized down to a 2.


They do look good with my Allbird Tree Breezers!

It was just a bit too big everywhere. That said, these are mid rise and the waistband hit right under my belly button. There are two side pockets. It has a hook and eye closure, which I'm a fan of. The fabric is smooth and sweat wicking although I can't see myself ever working out in these pants. I will say they are stretchy and very comfortable. I wish they were more flattering on me. 


Down by the zipper is a quote that says "Live In Practice". Interesting little detail there. I ended up returning these but I am curious if a size 2 would have been better for me because these would have been great for the office. It has two other great reviews from other petite gals on the website. 


I have some reviews coming up next week featuring a cute pair of tights and a crop top! I don't think I've ever reviewed a crop top before, so that's something new and out of my comfort zone. Stay tuned. That is it for me! Have a great weekend everyone! Stay safe.

(That's a really pretty purple. Never noticed this sweater before?)

(This looks like a very comfy stay at home top.)

(Let's talk about this scarf for a minute, I am super tempted because it's practically half off, but still fairly pricey. I love the color and apparently the fabric is amazing but I wish Lulu would list the dimensions. Anyone have it? Any thoughts?)

  1. I’m interested in getting the Key to Your Heart Wrap too but I haven’t seen Ink Blue in person and the color seems to look different on different items. Not sure if I should take a chance.

    Thanks for the fit review cos I would never have thought of getting the In Power Mid Rise Crop, I agree that size 2 might have fitted you better but overall speaking the crop looks nice on you. I will check the product details out on the website.

    Have a nice weekend! :)

  2. Those crops with the All Birds look fabulous! I think a size 2 would be better. I'm interested in the Urban Strides pants on WMTM! But they're final sale and still $89. HMM!

    1. Hi! FWIW i bought the Urban Strides pants when they were full price and i love them! They are very high rise but super flattering with the seam details. At 5' the hit meet like a full length pant so i had them hemmed as i prefer the 7/8 look for this style. Well definately buy the other colour now that they are on wmtm because they are great dressed up for work or casual. Hope you love them if you get them!

    2. Those look nice too, but I try to stay away from super high rise. The seam details do look like they would elongate petite legs though!

    3. Hi trilikemary! Thanks for your thoughts on them! I think I might get them. If I do I'll post about how I like it in the comments on some future posts here :P.

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.

Review! Everywhere Belt Bag Extended Strap VS Everywhere Belt Bag Original
