Fit Review Friday! Define Jacket, Brave Olive Swiftly, Conduit Crop, Align Crop Darkest Magenta

Happy Friday everyone!  A lot of fit reviews this week.  It's fall madness. I can't take it with all these friends & family sales happening all at once!  Hopefully things will die down soon because my bank account can't handle it.

 For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and usually a size 4 in tops and bottoms.

Define Jacket in Hazy Heathered Size 4

I placed a small order last week to Lululemon.  Thankfully I didn't love any of the items so I returned it all.  The Define Jacket that I thought was herringbone actually isn't herringbone at all.  It's just a printed on texture to look like herringbone.  I thought the name was just off, but nope, it's correct.  Which is great, because this one is now off my wish list and replaced by darkest magenta.  =)

Fit is true to size as usual, I'm wearing size 4.  The jacket is shown with the Conduit Crops which I also ordered to try, more on that later in this post.  

I think the outfit looks great actually, now that I'm looking at the photos on my laptop, but I was really looking for another herringbone Define Jacket.  

Next up is the Swiftly Racerback in brave olive.  I tried on the short sleeve and the long sleeve version of this at the store and wasn't wowed by them.  While I liked the racerback the most out of the three, it wasn't love at first sight.  Also this one wasn't as soft as some of my other Swiftlies so I sent this one back as well.

Fit was true to size for me, although I know that's inconsistent.  I liked the back of the tank more than the front.  I wish the floral pattern continued all the way down in the front as it is on the back.  

 Next up is the Conduit Crop.  Fit is true to size, I am wearing a size 4.  I don't usually like stripes, but these are so thin it doesn't even look like stripes from afar.  Which is a plus, because given how short I am, I usually stay far away from anything stripey.

I found these to be very figure flattering.  They made my bum look really good.  I did the bend over test and these passed.  I also found these to be fairly compressive.

As usual these gave me the baggy ankle syndrome.  They flared out quite a bit on me.  If I kept these, they would need to be hemmed.

The biggest gripe I have about these crops are the seams.  They are much thicker than normal and wrinkle when my leg is in any position but straight.  Here's a close up shot of what I mean.  The seams stick out quite a bit and is not flush.  They probably stick out about 1/8th of an inch.  It was definitely odd.  

Other than the seams and the baggy ankles, these crops looked great.  But for $98, I sent them back.  

My favorite purchase so far from Lululemon are the Align Crops I purchased in darkest magenta.  Here are some better modeling shots.  

Align Crop Darkest Magenta Size 4

I'm wearing it with my dusty mauve Essential Tank.  I wouldn't mind getting a couple more of these tanks in other colors.  I'm liking the chilled grape and jet set blue that was released this week.

No baggy ankle syndrome with these!  And they make my bum look great.  It's hard to say no when the fit is absolutely perfect.  Only super petite girls can appreciate finding a perfect fitting pair of crops that do not need any adjustment.    

Sometimes I like to roll down the waist and wear them like this if I'm not feeling the high waist.   

That's all for today.  Have a great weekend everybody!
