Fit Review Friday! First Mile Jacket, Define Jacket, Insculpt Jacket


Happy Friday everyone!! I went to the store yesterday and they had the First Mile Jacket but not the 1/2 zip.  I am loving the jacket in darkest magenta!  Remember the purple from last year in the Down For A Run Jacket?  This is suuuuuch a better combo in terms of color and fit.  I'm glad I never got one last year.  Of course the major difference is one is down and the other is fleece.  Warmth wise it's not the same, but I think I would get more use out of the First Mile Jacket.  

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically a size 4 in tops.



I grabbed a size 2 in the darkest magenta to try on.  The fit is super slim.  The length is perfect.  Not too long in the back.  However, and this is major, the shoulders and back were too tight on me.  Sometimes I can wear a size 2 in outerwear, but not this time.  If I bought this I would have to get my usual size 4.  

I love how the back looks perfect in terms of length.

The jacket is slim and hugs the waist and body.

I cannot stress how perfect the length is in the size 2.  The sleeves were not that long either.  

The hood is a nice touch.


I like how there are zippers that open up to vents to cool you down.  

The back of the jacket.

Next up I tried this on in black but size 4.  It was a much better fit in the chest and back.  If I wanted to layer up I could fit a sweater under this very easily.  The length in the back is noticeable longer than the size 2, but still wearable.  The front looks about the same.


As you can see it is not as fitted and the sleeves look looser and longer.

I think I may be in-between sizes in this jacket.

The back shows more of a contrast, almost like a color block jacket.

The hood also feels bigger as well.

Overall still a nice fitted jacket.

I think this jacket looks great with my Skull Leggings =)

The store also had another Define Jacket in wee are from space nimbus battleship.   Of course I had to try it on.  I grabbed my usual size 4 to try.  Definitely did not like this as much as the darkest magenta.  I think almost everything pales in comparison to that color.  But that might be just me.  





Finally, I decided to try the Insculpt Jacket. They only had the size 4 for me to try on and it's way too big.  I can safely say a size 2 would have fit me.


The fabric is called Spacer fabric.  It feels like a Scuba Hoodie to me and slightly rubbery?  It definitely felt like it would keep you very warm.  It was thick and a little on the stiff side.  It also felt bulky to me but that may be because it was too big.





The sleeves were definitely WAY too long for me.

Overall, I wasn't too impressed with this piece.


Oh one last photo of the new Speed Short in Scatter Star Beach Blanket.  I didn't bother to try it on though since I have too many Speed Shorts at the moment!!


That's all for today!  Have a great weekend everybody!  Oh, I got the Florence Speed Wunder Tights. They came in yesterday and I quickly tried them on.  They are not the same material as the Marbled Mix print.  I think I actually prefer the Marbled Mix to Florence.  I'll have photos up very soon!

    1. I think that would be close! Deep Zinfandel is much darker purple. Darkest Magenta has a bit of pink to it. Luluaddict has a decent photo of the two. http://www.luluaddict.com/2016/10/color-comparison-darkest-magenta-vs.html

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 ...

Fit Review! Aviator Nation Navy Hoodie 5 Stripe

  Is it already Monday? This weekend just flew by. For the first time since early 2020, I met up with a friendly neighbor and we went out for dim sum. At the end we hugged since I hadn't seen her in forever. I told her, "You're the first person I hugged since the pandemic started that isn't my husband!" 😄  For today's post, this is a hoodie I've been dying to try for months but kept putting it off because of the price tag. Aviator Nation is not cheap. Not a whole lot makes me pause because I'm used to seeing Lululemon hoodies priced at $128-$138. Aviator Nation comes in at a whopping $189.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and I am wearing a size XS in Aviator Nation. For Lululemon tops I typically wear a size 4. 5 Stripe Hoodie  Navy Size XS The interesting thing about Aviator Nation is their hoodies are unisex sizing. The available sizes are XS-XXL. The female model is shown wearing size XS while the male model is shown wearing size large. I took a c...
