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. ...

Did You Know There Are Two Different Ugg Companies? Review - UGG Lowmel

  So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos.  The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels. UGG Lowmel Sand   Size Kids 4 I typically wear size 5.5 and I decided to try the kids size 4 which actually fit well, if just a smidge large...

First Impressions! On Cloudmonster Void

  Happy Friday! I've been branching out into other brands for footwear. I mentioned in a previous post I just don't think my Allbirds are cutting it anymore. Allbirds are more of a casual walking shoe. Anything over 10K, my feet start to hurt. I have tried Hokas, and they seem to be decent so far, I can walk 12K steps a day and haven't had issues. However, I am loving the On Cloudmoster Void even more! For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in Allbirds which is my normal street size for sneakers and I am also wearing size 5.5 in On Cloudmonster Void. On CloudMonster Void Ivory | Wolf Size 5.5 (Currently on sale for 20% off -  $135) I'm not a huge fan of logos on my shoes. I decided on this colorway because I love the light gray and lilac combo and it does have a big On logo, but it blends in nicely with the colors. It still has a minimalistic vibe.  This shoe has a 6mm heel to toe shoe drop. This is a good height if you're a heel to toe striker which I am. This is...
