I'm In NYC Plus Athleta Sale 25% off Everything!

Hi everyone! You may be wondering why there's no Fit Review Friday. I'm currently in NY because my grandma is not doing well. She's 101 which is so amazing. She is my favorite person and my heart is broken to see her at this stage in life. When she hit 85 I started preparing myself but you can never be prepared for something like this. It is gut wrenching and hard to look at, hard to endure hearing her mumble. This is the first time I'm losing someone this close to me. I was raised by her for 35 years. 😢 I am honestly not sure how long I'll be in NY for. I won't have a fit review until I get back to Atlanta. It'll be hard for me to focus on anything else, so I may not be posting much. I don't mean to be such a downer for a Friday. I'm sorry.  I'm not very much in the mood for shopping, but Athleta is having a sale - 25% off everything! Here are my picks.   Seasoft Bubble Hem Hoodie (I ordered this before I left for NY) Pranayama Restore Rib Wrap

New Releases Week of July 23rd 2024

Sorry I'm running late today, but doesn't look like I missed much. I kinda like how the  Cityverse Canvas Sneaker  looks in Jade Gray and I'm not usually a green person. I'm tempted to try it.  Did you get anything?    Relaxed Fit Boatneck T-Shirt Bone Hold Tight LS Henley True Navy Brunswick Muscle Tank Sheer Stripe Black Swiftly Tech Racerback Tank Gray Eucalyptus Ultralight Waist Length Tank Top Ideal Mint Swiftly Tank Waist Length Gray Eucalyptus Brushed Softstreme Ribbed 1/2 Zip Riverstone Scuba Oversized Half Zip Hoodie Black/Gold Always Effortless Jacket Gray Eucalyptus Align Short 6" Legacy Green Hotty Hot HR Short 2.5" Yellow Serpentine     Align HR Crop 23" Ideal Mint Cityverse Canvas Sneaker Jade Gray

Review! Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Size Small Plus Video

  You all know I love my bags, and as a Balenciaga collector, I don't often stray from the City and First style. The Rodeo (pronounced like Rodeo Drive) really caught my eye. It gives off a slouchy Hermes Kelly vibe, but way more practical to use.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Small The Rodeo can be carried a few ways. It comes with a crossbody strap that is not adjustable but it is removable. Not sure why anyone wouldn't add a few extra holes to make a strap adjustable these days. Come on Balenciaga! Do better! The top handle is a bit too long for this to work anyhow, I feel like the top handle gets in the way. It sticks out and doesn't sit well in my opinion. I wouldn't carry this bag crossbody unless it was an unforeseen emergency and I really needed my hands free. This bag looks more chic carried by the handle or crook of the arm. It also looks nice left open with the help of the flap tucked in. The Rodeo resembles the Kelly bag

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Seasoft Short Smoky Rose vs Taupetastic

Happy Friday! Athleta's Smoky Rose (in Seasoft) is probably at the top of my favorite colors ever! I have Seasoft in parenthesis because it looks very different compared to the Pranayama Restore Wrap (it looks more brown than purple). That is a bummer because I was totally going to buy it in the wrap.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size PXS in Athleta. I also wear size 4/6 in Lululemon bottoms. Seasoft Short Smoky Rose Size XS (on sale $45!) I'm wearing size XS and it's true to size. It looks exactly like the models on the site. That said, the front and side profile looks very flattering. However it doesn't do anything for my backside. Makes it look a bit flat, which is fine since I wear a lot of longer tops when I wear shorts, so most of my bum is covered anyway.  Waistband is super comfortable and hits below my belly button. Seasoft fabric is extremely soft and cozy. Adjustable drawstring at the waist and has pockets! I loved the sho
