Fit Review! Swiftly SS, Precision Jacket, Speed Shorts, Run Times Short

I took my once a week trip to the store to see what's new.  They had tons of new things for me to try on and I was most excited about the Speed Shorts.

As usual I'm normally a size 4 in fitted tops and bottoms.

The heathered boom juice Swiftly SS was on my wish list for a while.  I finally found one at the store to try on, I'm guessing it was a return.  While the color looks very pretty on me I didn't think it was a must have in my collection.

I'm also wearing it with a pair of Run Times Short in pretty prism print.  The print isn't bad, but I thought the shorts looked wrinkly even though they weren't.  The size 4 was a tiny bit big on me and the store didn't have a size 2 for me to try on.

Weird that they kind of look wrinkly!



Next up, I grabbed the Swiftly SS in black that everyone's raving about.  The store only had a size 4 in the SS.  All small sizes in the LS were already sold out.  I think the smallest size I saw in the LS was an 8.

The fit was TTS and it was soft and smooth.  For $58 I'm not sure I can justify it for a black top.  You would think Lululemon would make this a staple color.  I'm also wearing the Speed Shorts in rio nights.  The print itself is very pretty.  The purple is super vibrant and the green is a nice contrast.  I tried on the size 2 and the size 4 to see which one fit better.  The size 2 is slightly on the small side for me but it wasn't uncomfortable.

One thing I will mention is the print on the size 2 Speed Shorts was better than the one in the size 4.  In cases like these, I definitely like to see the print placement in person instead of buying online and hoping for the best!

Next up, the Precision Jacket in cyber jungle is interesting.  I definitely preferred it over the solid black and heathered battleship that I saw at the store.  I definitely liked the contrast of the inside lining in hero blue.  It looks very pretty peeking out.

The jacket is very fitted and it accentuates my hips since it's so form fitting.  Although if you're taller than me it may not fall to your hips.  Keep in mind I'm only 4 feet 11 inches tall.


Overall I liked the jacket, but for $118 I want to love it.  It was comfortable and stretchy.  I liked the asymmetrical zipper.  And the zipper was very smooth which is always a plus.  This would make a really cute spring jacket.  And in case you're wondering I am wearing the Speed Shorts shown with the jacket in a size 2.


Maybe I should have put my sneakers on?  

Last but not least they had the Free to Be Wild Bra in kara blossom print!  SO MINE!

Thanks for reading!  Hope you liked my review.

    1. I think it may go on WMTM if you're patient enough. Cross your fingers it does and they still have your size. Let me know what you think of the jacket!

    1. The LS swiftly in boom juice is different than the SS swiftly. I think it may be the different fabric? I'm not quite sure. Out of the two, I preferred the SS in the boom juice for the swiftly!

    2. OH I meant to say the color is slightly different between the two.

Review! Coach Soft Empire Carryall 40 Merlot

  I am super excited about this review! This has been the most anticipated Coach bag since The Rogue came out. At least for me. When I first saw this bag on the purseblog , my eyes widened and I was immediately obsessed. The Soft Empire Carryall comes in four sizes. Size 48 is ridiculously big, I cannot pull it off, but the 40? Perfect. Size 35 and 26 just doesn't give off the same wow factor. This bag is meant to be a statement piece and head turner. Kudos to Stewart Vevers for creating another hit that everyone will be obsessing over for a long time. I hear that more colors will be released soon, and I am hoping the distressed lived-in version will not be exclusive to size 48. In case it doesn't happen, I'll be using my Empire 40 as much as I can to give it a distressed look myself.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and please check out my video to see what fits! Coach Empire 40 Merlot This bag is huge, it's definitely the biggest bag in my collection. ...

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! Aviator Nation Navy Hoodie 5 Stripe

  Is it already Monday? This weekend just flew by. For the first time since early 2020, I met up with a friendly neighbor and we went out for dim sum. At the end we hugged since I hadn't seen her in forever. I told her, "You're the first person I hugged since the pandemic started that isn't my husband!" 😄  For today's post, this is a hoodie I've been dying to try for months but kept putting it off because of the price tag. Aviator Nation is not cheap. Not a whole lot makes me pause because I'm used to seeing Lululemon hoodies priced at $128-$138. Aviator Nation comes in at a whopping $189.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and I am wearing a size XS in Aviator Nation. For Lululemon tops I typically wear a size 4. 5 Stripe Hoodie  Navy Size XS The interesting thing about Aviator Nation is their hoodies are unisex sizing. The available sizes are XS-XXL. The female model is shown wearing size XS while the male model is shown wearing size large. I took a c...
