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

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 ...

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.
