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!

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...
