Upload! November 19th 2019

The first major holiday drop is here and this is the first time in a long time that I placed an order right away. It's a semi big order too. Will hopefully have some reviews up after I return from my New York trip. I always go visit my family every Thanksgiving.

This upload has a lot of velvet. Here's the thing, I was really into Juicy Couture back in 2005. I had like a dozen tracksuits, one in every color. I even had a green one and I never go for green. So to see the velvet tracksuit come back again, I have to say I think Juicy Couture did it better. Even so I placed an order for the Define Hooded Jacket to try. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. I did wear all of the tracksuits to death! When they went out of style, they were still so comfy I ended up using the bottoms as pajamas. 

Also a lot of cashmere. I love cashmere. If I won the lotto I would be ordering it all up. But in the meantime I'll have to placate myself with the Scuba Hoodie Cashlu

So what did you think of tonight's upload? Did you order anything? And what's up with all the crop tops? 

(Mine!! I loved last year's dark adobe so much I bought night diver.)



(I ordered the spanish oak to try.)






(I ordered this to try in the gray and night diver.)







(If I had $300 lying around, I would get this.)

  1. I’m with you on the Juicy Couture tracksuits, I had quite a few of them which I wore to death and used the pants as sleepwear! I just purchased the Athleta double cozy karma hoodie in red and black version and really like both. I have the Scuba hoodie plush in the dark adobe and black too and they both have gotten a lot of wear from me. I like the new night diver color. Interested to see what you think about the Lululemon Define in velvet!

    1. I tried the Athleta hoodie too! I ordered it in the gray and wasn't crazy about how it looked on me, but it is very comfortable. The sleeves were very baggy too. I returned it.I think you will love the night diver color. I've been eyeing that color for months but never purchased anything until last night!

  2. Interested in getting the Scuba Hoodie Plush Heathered in beautiful Night Diver but I really don’t need another hoodie ... Do they have the same fit as the regular version?

    Lulu never adjusted downward the price of Align Cross Waist Crop 21” so it’s a pass for me. :(

    1. It's pretty much the same fit, but the band at the hem is not as stretchy. You may not have that problem since I have bigger hips if I recall, so it feels tight for me. I actually went up this time to a size 4 because of that. I agree I don't need another hoodie either, but I'm such a sucker for luxe items!

      That's too bad about the Aligns... maybe you can snag it on WMTM.

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...
