Boston / Newport Trip!

Hope everyone had a great weekend! Here's a recap of my trip to Boston. Here's a little background story- before I got married, I lived in New York and my husband lived in Boston. So for three years we did the long distance thing. Every other week one of us would travel to see the other. After we got married I quit my job in New York and moved to Boston so we could be together. We came to the conclusion that a 600 square foot apartment for two adults and one cat was a bit cramped to say the least. I really didn't have anywhere to put my stuff. My husband reeeeeally misses Boston for a whole bunch of reasons, but housing affordability is not one of them.  Boston is super walkable and beautiful. One of our favorite things was to walk from his apartment to our favorite restaurants. We would do it during the fall/spring weather and cool summer nights. Lots of memories just walking hand in hand for hours. Like I said, while in Boston we walked about 9 miles a day

Fit Review Friday! Call Me Cozy Wrap & Retreat Yourself Crop

Happy Friday! Last weekend I stopped by the store for some try ons. The Call Me Cozy Wrap looked interesting on the hanger but was too overwhelming on my petite frame. It can be zipped up all the way and when worn like this, it reminds me of a poncho. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. This wrap is a blend of pima cotton and Yak. What is Yak anyway? After a quick search on the internet it looks like a long haired bull. For some reason I can't find it on the Lululemon website to link to it.   Next up, I was very interested to see if the Retreat Yourself Crop was petite friendly. The answer is - sorta. It definitely wasn't flattering on me in the heathered soft sand for some reason. I think it just made me look short. It didn't work. The fit is true to size.

Happy October! I finally received the Sincerely Sherpa Wrap  in black and I'm sad to report that I will be returning it. I didn't think it felt very soft. I was hoping it would be soft enough for me to wear with just a short sleeve tee underneath, but this is one of those pieces where my arms would have to be completely covered to avoid the itchy wool. The size XS was also very big. I would recommend sizing down in this one if you would like to give it a try. In other news I really want the Still Lotus Wrap in silver lilac and heathered black!
