Petite Impact

 Athleta has some cute items from their Form Knit line that looks very nice. I'll check my Athleta store to see if they have any of it to try-on. Also interested in the Barrel Leg pant from Lululemon since they have a short length, finally! Also excited for the Fount Cherry drop coming Friday.

I'm not sure if I ever have before in the past. When I look at all the 9/11 videos that come across my Instagram feed or an article in the NYTimes catches my eye, I feel compelled to watch...
