Lululemon Winter Lookbook 2016!

It's like 50 shades of gray!  Not sure if there's anything I really like.  Which is some what disappointing.  I really like the print on the Free To Be Zen Bra but I wish it was the Free To Be Wild Bra instead.  If that's the best they can do I might as well purchase the 5 Mile Jacket since I don't think I'll be purchasing much this winter.  I think I foresee a lot of items going on WMTM in the near future.  I'm also getting really tired of hi-rise bottoms.  Maybe it's just me, but I find them to be super uncomfortable and not flattering.  However, I really do like Nulux fabric, so that's exciting to see more of it coming.  I really want to love a pair.  I think I'm going to return my Florence Wunder Speed Tights and will reconsider when they go on WMTM.

Fit Review Friday! Werkshop Onyx Full Length

Happy Friday everyone!  I'm going to be pretty much out all day Friday so I'm posting this a little early.  I was super excited to receive my Onyx leggings from their new Polygon collection.  These can be worn to the gym and transition easily to casual wear after the gym.  I love when my workout clothes can be used for double duty! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and usually a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms.  In Werkshop I fit a size small for a more casual fit. Onyx Full Length  Size Small As with all my other Werkshop leggings, the fit is exactly the same as my other pairs in size small.  I like that Werkshop is very consistent about their sizing.  This pair in Onyx definitely lengthens my legs.  My inseam is only 26 to 27 inches so I'll take all the help I can get.  These sit right below my belly button.  Very fitted throughout.  For me the size small, offers low to mid compression.  I do not like my leggings to be too tight.  These are 100% opaque.

Fit Review! Athleta Colorblock Powerlift Tight, Down To Town Sweatshirt + Banana Republic Melton Trench

Yesterday I went to the mall to visit Athleta.  I did go into Lululemon but didn't see anything that I wanted to try on.  They did have the new Shibori items but they remind me too much of tie dye and I'm not really a fan.  Maybe I'll change my mind if they release other colors. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms.  XXS/XS in Athleta. I've been eyeing this Down to Town Sweatshirt jacket from Athleta for a while.  I wanted to see which color I preferred in person and if I was a XXS or XS, sometimes I'm in-between the two in Athleta. Down To Town Sweatshirt in Shadow Grey Size XXS This jacket is very slim cut.  It was fine for me throughout the body.  When zipped up it was just a smidge tight in the armpit area for me.  Not quite enough for me to size up unless I wanted to wear sweaters underneath.  A little trivia about me, I only wear t-shirts even in the winter.  I own maybe 3 long sleeve shirts and no sweaters at
