Fit Review Friday! Vuori Halo Modern Full Zip Hoodie, Banana Republic Oversized Linen Shirt, Getaway Linen Blend Muscle Tank

  Happy Friday! We made it another week. It's hard to believe it's already the end of March. I know I say this all the time, but it really feels like the months keep flying by. Today's fit review is a mash up of Vuori, Banana Republic, and Athleta. I've been loving Banana Republic lately.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XS or PXS in these three brands. I also wear size 4/6 and XS/S in Lululemon. Vuori Halo Modern Full Zip Hoodie Size XS also wearing Mother Denim  Size 27 I thought I would love this Vuori hoodie since I have one already in purple. But I don't know, when I tried it on and looked at the photos, I wasn't loving it. I am not sure if it's the color or if this particular hoodie was just off with the cut. Wearing it open, it looks fine, but when I fully had it zipped up, the front of the hoodie by the pockets would bulge out.  I'm wearing my usual size XS. I have my hands in the pockets, so this looks okay t...

New Releases Week of March 24th 2026

At least we're seeing some spring colors from Lulu. Foam Cloud and Lotus Lavender remind me of Easter eggs. I did order a pair of  Puma Speedcat Wedges  to try. I used to have a pair of Ash Wedge sneakers back in the day. Anyone remember those? Nothing else for me this week! I'm still trying to stick to my 24 items this year. I'll have an update on that number coming this Friday! Did anything catch your eye lately?

New Fit Review! Athleta Getaway Linen Blend Muscle Tank and Allure Shirt Jacket

Weekends just go by way too fast. Two days feels like one. 😓 I think three day weekends should be the norm. Athleta's Friends & Family sale is still going on and they are now adding an extra 10% discount on top! There are some amazing deals to be had.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size PXS in Athleta's tops and bottoms. I also wear size 4/6 and XS/S in Lululemon. Allure Shirt Jacket Cacti Size XXS (on sale 30% off plus extra 10%) I've been eyeing this shirt jacket (shacket) for a while now. I have a longer length version of this from last year but the shorter length would be more practical for warmer weather. I was debating between Bone or Cacti, I was actually leaning towards Bone, but Jared really wanted me to buy this in Cacti. How could I say no? 😊 This shacket is super comfortable and I love the way the fabric feels. It almost feels like a smooth sweatshirt material, similar to Seasoft and Softstreme, except it feels plushy and ...

Fit Review Friday! Lululemon Sleek Spacer Full Zip Hoodie, Swiftly Relaxed Long Sleeve Shirt Hip Length Updated Fit, Softstreme Pique Mid Rise Short 4"

Happy Friday! Last weekend I stopped by Lululemon to see if they had any of the Sleek Spacer items for me to try on. Not only did they have the Full Zip hoodie, they also had the Half Zip but as soon as I picked up the Half Zip I could tell it was way too oversized even in the XXS. Needless to say the Sleek Spacer line runs ginormous. 😩 For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4/6 or XS/S in Lululemon tops and bottoms.    Sleek Spacer Full Zip Hoodie Light Ivory  Size XXS I'm wearing size XXS and it is very oversized. I think this may be the only time I would ever want size XXXS. It's very wide and boxy. The sleeve length is long as expected, however the length of the hoodie was actually fine. It hit at the hip which is how I like my hoodies. The weight of the Spacer material is actually quite heavy. It feels great, very smooth with medium thickness, but feels hefty. The hood itself was fairly heavy. I think I'm sized out in this hoodie. As much ...
