Fit Review! Align Wide Leg Crop 23



Hi everyone! Hope everyone had a nice weekend. I have a quick little fit review for you today. I received the Align Wide Leg Crop 23" in the mail on Friday and I picked black over violet verbena even though I was very tempted by the pretty lilac shade. 

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms. 


First thing- I found this to be true to size. I'm usually a size 4 in my Align Crops and these fit the same. The fabric is the same buttery soft nulu that we all love. I think these are very petite friendly given the 23" length and they look very stylish and classy. The width of the pant leg isn't overly wide and overwhelming which I really like. They are cut pretty straight from the thigh. 



One thing I wasn't a huge fan of is the super high rise. These almost reach my lower rib. It's that high. I find it a little uncomfortable with how high these are so for me it's a pass even though I do think they look amazing and very flattering.



I think the length is perfect. They fall just above my ankles and look really cute with my new Allbirds wool loungers. I just got these as well and will have a review coming up soon. I love that there are pockets but they do flare out just a little bit, but not enough to bother me. For $98, are they worth the money? Hmmmm I would say it's pretty close. I think $88 would be a little more fair, but they're a nice piece to add to your stay-at-home loungewear part of your wardrobe.

  1. Out of all the wide leg crops you have done reviews on- the aligns look the best on you! They make your legs look longer. I know the waist is high, but it would go well with crop tops. You should consider keeping those!

    1. I'll try it on again to see if I can deal with the super high waist, but generally they just make me feel like I have a corset on. lol!

  2. Agree with Sherry. The length is good for a petite body and the crop does look very flattering on you. The width of the hem is perfect and makes you look taller. Unless it’s really uncomfortable with the high waist band, you should consider keeping it. Makes me wanna try it out too but I’m worried about the pilling issues. All my Aligns are in printed/embossed materials which I feel are less prone to pilling. I had black Groove Pants (Luon) before and the pilling was terrible. Not sure about solid color Nulu but the comments are not that positive.

    1. Hmmm I have a bunch of Align Crops in the solid colors and rotate them enough that the pilling is fairly minimal. But I did have one pair that I wore A LOT and the pilling did get pretty bad and I had to retire it. Was very sad!

  3. I’m with you on the super high rise fit, I find it very constrictive and uncomfortable. They are cute pants but I wouldn’t be comfortable in them.

    1. Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way! Seems like almost everyone loves the high rise.

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 Friday! Allbirds Tree Glider

  Hi everyone! I'm posting from New Orleans. I'm hitting up a Lululemon while I'm here. I always like to visit other Lululemon stores when I'm traveling. I was planning on having an Aviator Nation review for you guys but Hurricane Helene threw my plans out the window. So I will try and have it up when I get back to Atlanta. In the meantime, here's an Allbirds review.  For reference my street size is 5.5. I'm usually a 5.5 in Allbirds, but for the Tree Gliders they run large. I took these in a size 5. Definitely size down. I've partnered up with Allbirds! Super excited to share my  personal link . Click on  my link  for a 15% off.
