Guest Review Athleta High Rise Quest Chaturanga Capri, Colorblock Revelation Tight

I want to thank Sarah for sending an email with her review of her latest Athleta haul.  I actually really like the Colorblock Revelation Tight and want a pair for myself.  I'm sad the petite sizes are sold out!    I'm tempted to order in the regular XS just to see.  Thanks again Sarah!


"Hi Leslie!

happy new year ðŸ˜Š

My Athleta order just arrived so I thought I'd share with you ðŸ˜Š

I got the high rise quest chats capris in iron blue and purple drama. 
Left to right: High Rise Quest Chaturanga Capri and Black Quest Chaturanga Capri

Compared to my black quests, these are longer and the fabric is smoother and more compressive. I really like the change. I have included a picture of the fabric content and it's the same but the two new pairs feel more substantial, not sure why!


I have also included a comparison to the high rise knickers so you can see the difference in length.



The last picture is of the Revelation Tights in colour block black heather size S petite. I am in love so far ðŸ˜Š they fit perfectly. These are still available on sale in regular sizes.

    Hi! I'm 5'2" 107 lbs, and normally wear size 4 in lululemon. I'm looking at the athleta stripes chaturanga capris.. any idea what size I would be? Debating btw xxs and xs. I've never tried athleta before, but this print reminds me of lulu's parallel stripe. Thanks!

      Hi there, I think you would be XS, because that's what I would go with and I'm also a size 4 in Lululemon. I can technically fit into a size XXS in Athleta, but I find it too tight to move around comfortably. Hope that helps!

      I ending up finding a store and picking up them in an xs! They didn't have xxs in the stripes, but I tried on a black xxs pair and they were horribly sheer on me. The xs are a little big (some wrinkles in the back of legs and around knees) but they are super cute and came home with me. Just found out about athleta's awesome return policy too!

      Athleta's return policy is truly amazing. I haven't yet returned anything of theirs, I've been pretty happy with my purchases. Glad you found something from them!

      Awesome 😊 I practiced (2 hours of sweaty Astanga) in the revelation tights and they are a dream 😊 didn't have to adjust them once! They also dried super fast. I ❤ Athleta!

    I'm a 6 in Lulu bottoms and I find Athleta S to be a comfortable TTS 😉

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...
