Store Visit Today Fit Review for Tender Violet Down For A Run Vest, Down For A Run Jacket, Vinyasa, Speed Tight IV

First up, Tender Violet Down For A Run Jacket.  I love this color so much I wanted to give it another try, but sadly the back of the jacket is just too long on me.  The front looks fantastic, but the back just kills it for me.  I love the new Vinyasa scarf too.  Wish I knew what the name of the color was!  The jacket is a size 2.  I feel it is true to size.  Some people are put off by the contrasting panels but I don't mind it.  







The dip on the butt just looks off.  


New Vinyasa, super cute.  I might go back for it.



The vest fit me better in a size 4.  The 2 was just too suffocating.  The back was not as long as the jacket on me, but I still left it behind since I don't have much use for vests.  If you're interested in the vest in this style, I suggest size up.





These are the herringbone Speed Tights.  At first glance they're very long on me, but since the bottom scrunches up a bit it they're passable on my 27 inch legs.  I tried on my usual size 4 and were very comfortable.  I love the large side pockets especially.  If I ran on a regular basis I would pick these up.  But for $108 I don't know if I would be able to justify the cost per run.  


And just for the heck of it I tried on the 1X A Lady coat because it was marked down to $128 which made it very tempting, but the pockets sat too low on me.  Again it's because I have a very short torso.  If i were just a couple of inches taller it would have looked better on me.  It's very cute.

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.
