New Swiftly Color & Fit Review Speed Sock Dusty Mauve Rose Blush!

I managed to go to the store yesterday but had very limited time.  There was a new Swiftly color in a gorgeous purple red that I grabbed in my usual size 4.  I also bought the Speed Sock in the pretty dusty rose color.


When I got home I threw on the Swiftly to check out how it looked and to my dismay the length is a good half an inch shorter than usual.  Actually I've noticed that the heathered versions of Swiftlys are tighter and shorter than my other ones but this one was even shorter than expected.  

The length compared to my recently purchased Heathered Black Sapphire Blue

I'm guessing the name of the color Black Cherry something?

The color is more purple than red but you can definitely see shades of both colors in the mix.  I may have to go back to the store and exchange it for another size 4 if this happens to be a one off, or maybe size up to a 6.  Is this what they meant when they said their sizes were changing?  Hmmmmm....  

In other news the Speed Sock fits okay.  I have super small feet.  I'm a size 5 usually and got these in the size small, but there is some over hang at the heel.  I don't think I would run in these since they don't really fit, but I would wear them for just walking around.  Sort of expensive for socks, but I've always been a sucker for cute colored socks.

Notice the extra fabric at the heel

Super cute color and pattern though

Did You Know There Are Two Different Ugg Companies? Review - UGG Lowmel

  So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos.  The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels.

First Impressions! On Cloudmonster Void

  Happy Friday! I've been branching out into other brands for footwear. I mentioned in a previous post I just don't think my Allbirds are cutting it anymore. Allbirds are more of a casual walking shoe. Anything over 10K, my feet start to hurt. I have tried Hokas, and they seem to be decent so far, I can walk 12K steps a day and haven't had issues. However, I am loving the On Cloudmoster Void even more! For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in Allbirds which is my normal street size for sneakers and I am also wearing size 5.5 in On Cloudmonster Void. On CloudMonster Void Ivory | Wolf Size 5.5 (Currently on sale for 20% off -  $135) I'm not a huge fan of logos on my shoes. I decided on this colorway because I love the light gray and lilac combo and it does have a big On logo, but it blends in nicely with the colors. It still has a minimalistic vibe.  This shoe has a 6mm heel to toe shoe drop. This is a good height if you're a heel to toe striker which I am. This is...

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!
