Fit Review Friday! Call Me Cozy Wrap & Retreat Yourself Crop



Happy Friday! Last weekend I stopped by the store for some try ons. The Call Me Cozy Wrap looked interesting on the hanger but was too overwhelming on my petite frame. It can be zipped up all the way and when worn like this, it reminds me of a poncho.

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




This wrap is a blend of pima cotton and Yak. What is Yak anyway? After a quick search on the internet it looks like a long haired bull. For some reason I can't find it on the Lululemon website to link to it. 




 Next up, I was very interested to see if the Retreat Yourself Crop was petite friendly. The answer is - sorta. It definitely wasn't flattering on me in the heathered soft sand for some reason. I think it just made me look short. It didn't work. The fit is true to size.

However, the Retreat Yourself Crop looked much better in the dark gray. Overall, I didn't think these were worth the price. They didn't feel that soft to me but I will admit they were very comfortable on. The dark gray color fits true to size as well.






Here was my outfit for that day. I was mainly running errands so I'm dressed pretty casual. I am wearing my Calm and Collected Wrap that I bought on WMTM. Absolutely love it! It's still in the mid 90s here in Hotlanta and I will be wearing it until it cools down. 

(I'm wearing size small.)

I've been living in wraps these days and I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the Exaltation Wrap that is also on WMTM. I can't seem to decide if I want the dark olive or true navy. Anyone have one? That's it for me! Hope you all have a great weekend!

    1. Thanks for dropping by! Hmmm I don't know exactly when but I think probably mid November.

  2. The dark gray Retreat Yourself Crop is not bad. You can dress it up or down, and dark gray goes with most colors.

    Dropped by the store today and the Cloudscape Wrap felt like a duvet! Not sure if I’d like to spend that much on a duvet though lol.

    Lots of winter jackets in the store but nothing really interested me. You can easily pay less for something similar in the market. I’m wearing my Savasana Wrap today and thought it’s been a while since Lulu released a French Terry Wrap. So glad I got two Savasana Wraps and four Gratitude Wraps, and I’m good for a while.

    I miss the days when Lulu had more feminine and interesting design details.

    Have a nice weekend!

    1. Hi Andrea, totally agree with you. Their recent designs have felt boring and mediocre. I used to pounce on items every Tuesday in fear they would sell out. Now that never happens. I'm pretty obsessed with wraps these days. It's what I wear everyday and all day. A few probably need to be replaced soon. Likely by end of year.

  3. The Calm and Collected Wrap looks so good on you! The first poncho wrap looks like a wizard cloak!

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...
