Fit Review Friday! On Repeat Bomber


Happy Friday! Last weekend I stopped by the Lululemon store and saw the On Repeat Bomber on the mannequin. It looked cute with the tights paired so decided to try it on. This bomber has been on my wish list for a while. 

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops. For the On Repeat Bomber I am wearing a size 2.

On Repeat Bomber Heathered Core Light Gray Size 2


This jacket is very petite friendly. The length hits at my hip. The sleeves are not too long. The body is semi fitted. I think if I wanted a more slouchy look, a size 4 would have been fine too. I really like the light/medium gray color and the fabric is a soft cotton blend. I was really surprised at how much I liked it! My only small criticism is the O ring. Wish it had a regular zipper pull, but maybe the O rings are popular now? I've been noticing a lot of zipper pulls with the O ring lately.



I think this jacket works well on the weekend running errands, and I think I may even be able to get away with wearing this on casual Fridays. The lines make this jacket look sporty but also very modern. I love the texture as well. This is a lightweight jacket, not meant for cold weather so it is probably too cold to wear this right now as it's freezing, but once it is back to 60s/70s temps I will be wearing it often. This is something I'm very happy to have added to my wardrobe! 


That's it for me hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! Stay warm!

  1. That is very cute! I like the O-Ring zipper pull - gives it some visual interest, especially when the jacket is half zipped. I like the texture of the jacket too. Thanks for the review!

    1. True, it does look good when half zipped. Maybe it will grow on me. =)

  2. I love how size 2 looks on you! Very simple and sleek. Honestly I’m not a big fan of the O-ring which looks kind of cheap, but somehow I don’t mind it on this jacket cos, like Shirley said, it gives the jacket some visual interest.

    Happy weekend!

    1. Thanks! Yes they do seem cheap which is why I don't like them as much, but it does work well in this case. I wish the ring was a little more substantial or something, seems a little thin.

  3. This is so cute....does this jacket run a little big, then, since you normally wear a 4 and you chose a size 2? Thanks.

    1. Yes it runs a little big, but I think if you want a fitted look, you can probably size down but if you want a little more looser fit stick to your usual size. I would say it's personal preference because I could have gotten my normal size 4 and it would still have been fine. It is cute!

We tried HelloFresh for the past two months - Here's our review

Hi everyone! This post is written by my husband. Some of you may know he does all the cooking around here. 😅 We noticed we were spending a lot of money on food and eating out every month and wanted to see if a meal kit service would save us money and time. After looking at a few meal kit services we settled on HelloFresh. Without further ado, here's Jared's review. (Original post date Aug 2022). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As you may have seen from Leslie's Instagram stories for the past 2 months, we've been using HelloFresh for most of our meals. The main drivers for this were to better track what we eat and because on the advice of my doctor, I should be eating more home cooked meals. Before I go any further, it should be noted that my original career path was in culinary arts, but twists and turns in life changed that. So I do have formal cooking experience. A little background story. Over the years, I've developed

Review! Lululemon's Large Everywhere Belt Bag Size Comparison Plus Video!

  Happy Friday! I can't believe it's almost Halloween! I actually have a dentist appointment on Halloween. One of my molars chipped and needs to be filled in.
