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. ...

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...
