Fit Review! Athleta Brooklyn Ankle Pant & Trekkie Hybrid Crop Tight



Hi everyone! Hope everyone is having a nice weekend. I stopped by the Lululemon store but sadly they did not have anything new that I was looking for. So instead, I have for you a short Athleta review! 

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms. For Athleta this translates to a size 0 or 0P. 


First thing, I really loved the stretchy flat waistband. I found it to be very comfortable. The size 0 fit perfectly at the waist. The color is also something I really loved too. It is a very pretty shade of mauve/brown. Looks very nice in person. The fabric is super lightweight stretch that reminds me of swift fabric, and very comfortable. It feels weightless. My only complaint is the length. At 27 inches, it's too long for my short legs. Luckily these come in petite sizes! The length on the petite version is 25 inches, which still might be a little too long, but I'm going to give it a try.



I also really like the subtle stripe running down the pant leg.

 Next up we have the Trekkie Hybrid Crop Tight. I'm wearing a size 0 but this feels a smidge too tight in the waistband for me. I would still consider it true to size though. This is a high-rise fit with the waist sitting right at my belly button. The back of the waist band sits even higher. I found it a little uncomfortable.



Very high back.


It is fitted through the legs, and then straight down to the ankle. The length is too long on me and but they do have this in petite sizes as well. I wasn't 100% in love with the fit though. 


I have them cuffed here.

I definitely am going to order the Brooklyn Ankle Pant to try. Hoping the 0P works. I love the color too much not to give it a go! What do you think of them? Yay or nay? That's it for me! Here's to another fabulous Monday.

  1. Love the color of the Ankle Pant and it matches your Allbirds running shoes perfectly! :). The fit is nice and hope size 0P fits better on the length.

  2. I like the Brooklyn Ankle Pant on you! I have a bunch of Athleta gear in that mineral brown color. I might be kind of obsessed with it. :D

  3. I do hope the Brooklyn ankle pants work for you in the petite size! I love that Athleta makes a lot of pants for us shorties. I have the Brooklyn ankle pants in black and in an olive green. They are my favorite pants for warmer weather.

    I haven't tried the tights you did, but I have the Headlands Hybrid Trek Tights and have constantly worn them this winter. Checking Athleta's website, there don't seem to be many left, especially not in petite sizes. I also like the Headlands Hybrid Cargo Tights.

    1. I was thinking of getting it in the black as well. Hmmmm will have to sit on it. I did see the Hybrid Cargo Tights but wasn't sure I liked the pockets. Maybe I'll give it a go next time I'm there!

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. It's a tiny chip that I didn't even notice until my dentist pointed it out to me during my last visit. I'm not looking forward to it at all since I will need local anesthesia.
