Athleta Review! Studio Wrap Abyss & Pranayama Wrap Wild Raisin

Happy Friday everyone! I'm sooooo ready for the weekend. Saturday is going to be a big day! Here's my good news that I've been waiting to share, we are going to adopt two kittens from the shelter. We get to bring them home on Saturday!!! I'll have more photos and hopefully new names for them. It's a boy and a girl. Their current names are Beethoven and Suzy Q. Too cute but we will rename.

Anyway! Back to my latest wrap purchases. I love wraps and wear them all the time. Practically everyday. I wear them at home, to work, and even when I go out on the weekends (once the weather gets a little bit warmer here).

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically wear a size PXS or XXS in Athleta.



Love the deep purple which looks really nice against my skin tone. The fabric is super soft as expected. Fit is roomy even in size XXS. I wanted to try this in PXS but they did not have it in stock when I placed my order.



From the back it looks a little shapeless and I wasn't a fan of how it looked in this photo above, so I returned it. I am a little sad, because it looks fab from the front! I'm trying to be really selective about what I keep these days. It has to be perfect or very close to it. For those who are taller than I am, it should work. If I were just a few inches taller it probably wouldn't look so shapeless.


Next up is the Studio Wrap in abyss. I love the Studio Wrap and have 3 others. This is my 4th! I'm not sure why but I am very confident when I put on this wrap. Makes me feel so good and it is super comfortable. Maybe that is why. 


Studio Wrap Abyss XXS

The back looks shorter and much more suited to my petite frame than the Pranayama Wrap.


I also like to push the sleeves up to my elbows and wear it closed with the magnets. The magnets are super cool by the way. They are very strong and sometimes if I'm not paying attention they can stick to random metal things in my office... which makes me laugh and my co workers look at my funny but that's okay, we're all a little weird at the office. 



The sleeves are little long but it honestly doesn't bother me because the fabric is so soft. The color is a deep saturated teal. It's really lovely in person. 


So yes this Studio Wrap is a keeper and I'm so happy with it. I think I'll wear it to work tomorrow! If you're new to Athleta you can receive 20% off your first purchase with my referral link.

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...
