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

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.
