Last Review for 2017! Store Visit Swiftly Racerback and Scuba Hoodie

I can't believe 2017 is coming to an end so quickly. I'll have a best of 2017 post coming up soon along with my Harry Potter trip! 2018 will be exciting because I'm going to start a new fitness routine with some new goals. I kind of took 2017 as an experimental fitness year. I did a little bit of running and tried to mix up my workouts to keep things interesting.

What are your goals for 2018? What would you like to see on this blog? Would love to know your thoughts on this!

This one is a short review. I went to the store to see what was new and tried on this Scuba Hoodie I was eyeing for a while and a new Swiftly caught my eye.


I'm trying on my normal size 2 in Scuba Hoodies. The back and shoulders felt a bit too tight and I find this is usually the case when I'm trying on a printed Scuba instead of a solid color Scuba. I have no idea why this is. Sizing up never works because the hoodie is just too baggy all around. Also the ribbing at the hem when stretched has a lot of white in-between the fabric and it doesn't look good. I definitely passed on this one.


This new Swiftly caught my eye. I swore I wouldn't buy anymore Swiftlys for a while, and for the most part I kept at it. This year I only purchased two other Swiftlys before this one. The color is just so me that I couldn't say no. This is also likely to be my last Lululemon purchase of the year.

This color looks great with the frozen flourish Scuba, doesn't it? The Swiftly is medium weight and soft. I think it was just uploaded to the website. Color is called pink paradise. Love it!


 In other news, more items were added to WMTM. Here are my latest picks.



(Now I'm really tempted to get one since the price dropped to $69. Has anyone seen this in person or tried it on? Would love to know your thoughts on this)





See you all in 2018! Have a Happy New Year!

  1. Love both of them on you! I did not even notice the new swiftly color until seeing your post. I definitely will check it out in the store. Maybe it will come out in the LS version. By the way, is it scratch and itchy? I returned the laced black cherry swiftly LS because it is itchy.

    Happy 2018 to you and all your readers!

    1. I did not find this one to be scratchy or itchy. It felt soft and smooth to me. However since it's a tank and not long sleeves, that might be why? I never wear long sleeves anymore, I just get too hot! I stick to SS or tanks mainly.

      Happy New Year!!!

  2. I ordered the Floral Flock scuba in black and ended up returning it in favor of the Radiant Jacket. But then it just went on sale, so I bought it again! It fits just like a regular scuba, but the detailing makes it just a little bit more special. Since I don't see myself ever wearing a non-detailed plain black scuba, I liked this version a lot!

    1. Thanks for letting me know! I'm still on the fence. Only because I have so many hoodies that I really don't need anymore!

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...
