Fit Review Friday! Play All Day Socks and Anthropologie Visit!

Ok so this isn't really a fit review since I didn't get myself to the store.  But I am hoping maybe I'll stop by this weekend to try a few things on my wish list.  However, I did order the Play All Day Socks when I saw them in the blue and pink combo!  I cannot pass up super cute socks.


Unfortunately the Pink Shell/Pipe Dream Blue combo already sold out online but they still have the white pair.  I would totally buy another pair if I could now that I know they fit me!  Normally I have to buy socks from the kids section because my feet are just that tiny.  I love the New Balance socks I have and they are children's size large.    


I typically wear a size 5 or 5.5 in women's and most socks never fit me perfectly.  There's also hanging fabric left over at the end of my foot which annoys me so much.  It's like a pet peeve.  I took a chance ordering these in the size Small/Medium.  When I saw these right out of the packaging I knew they would fit. 

Purrrrrrfect!

 Bottom line, if I see these in the store, I would totally buy them again!

I stopped by Anthropologie next still searching for a light weight cape-ish thing to wear in the summer.  And I found it!  Here it is!


So it doesn't look like a cape in this photo, but when I got home, because of the way the knots are tied at the ends of the scarf I could totally wrap the scarf around my shoulders and it slouches and falls in a nice drape to my lower back.  I have to take a photo and show you guys!  The back of the scarf has two sparrows facing one another.  Next time I wear it I'll have my husband take a pic.  


Yeah I don't know why I decided to try on this duster either.  I just like long drapey things even though they make me look even shorter than I already am.  The material felt nice but it totally doesn't work on my frame.


After that failed experiment, I tried on another kimono.  This one wasn't horrible, but still a little too long and swallowed me whole.  But the fabric is very nice and super soft and silky.



I can't seem to find the sweater wrap I'm wearing below anywhere on their website, but I was pretty close to buying it.  Ultimately I passed because I thought maybe the knot and the length of the front panels were too long and would end up bothering me after a while.  This supposedly also comes in petite sizes, but I can't seem to find it.  


The fabric was soft but also felt like it could be a little scratchy at times if you are very sensitive.  I loved how it fit though!



I grabbed a black dress to try on just for the heck of it.  I thought it looked okay but there was something off about how it fit near the chest and armpits.  Too much fabric I think.  The length was okay, kind of like a maxi dress.  The fabric was soooooo soft and silky.  That was what really tempted me to buy it.  It would have been perfect for summer date night.  



However I didn't because of the steep price.  $158+ tax.  Maybe if it fit better in the armpit area I might have gotten it.  This also comes in petite, but all the sizes are pretty much sold out online.  It's too bad Anthropologie doesn't carry the petite sizes in stores.




That's all for today!  Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

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. It's a tiny chip that I didn't even notice until my dentist pointed it out to me during my last visit. I'm not looking forward to it at all since I will need local anesthesia.
