Fit Review Friday! Athleta Organic Daily Camo Crew, Uptempo Hoodie, Mindset Sweatshirt

Happy Friday everybody! Today we have a fitting room review from Athleta. Shopping in person is still a really strange thing for me. Masks at all times and it is hard trying to social distance from other customers while browsing. I guess this is the new normal for now! 

For reference I am 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically size 4 in Lululemon and this translates to size XS/PXS in Athleta.



I'm wearing size XS in the Organic Daily Camo Crew and this is a semi-fitted tee. I definitely like the fit and found it to be flattering. The length is just a tiny bit too long on my petite torso, but otherwise I liked this a lot. I may want to try this in the petite size. Athleta stores do not carry a petite section, unfortunately. I wish they would! This is a thin t-shirt made of organic cotton which is why it is priced at $49. Definitely a little pricey even for organic cotton in my opinion. The color laurel olive is a nice subtle version of camo. This also comes in a variety of colors. The stream blue is a nice twist and reminds me more of clouds than camo.



Next up we have the Uptempo Hoodie. I'm wearing size XS. I found this to be a tunic length on me. I think it would look really cute with some leggings. This is also semi-fitted and made of super soft fabric. This hoodie also has thumbholes as well. The color is a saturated dark teal. These pictures do not do it justice because of the lighting in the fitting room. There is also a drawstring for the hood, although I do not know why the strings are so long. They almost reach my belly button! 😂


Cute side slit.


Overall, I do like this a lot and think the agate purple would be even better than the bali green! 


Next, we have the Mindset Sweatshirt. I grabbed this in a size small and extra small just to see if I prefer the oversized look or not. Here I am wearing size small in dark surf teal heather. The fit is just slightly loose and very casual. It wasn't oversized at all, but this material is super soft and clingy and between the two sizes I actually preferred the size small even though the sleeves are a tad long. The body length was fine. 






Next is the flora mauve color in size extra small. The fabric is beyond soft and on the thinner side of sweatshirt material, you can easily see the outline of my bra underneath. I think either size works, just personal preference if you prefer slightly casual look versus a more fitted look. This sweatshirt comes in a variety of colors and this also comes in petite!


This top does cling a bit to lumps and bumps. I would personally size up to avoid this.



That's it for me! Hope you all have a relaxing weekend!

  1. Both colors of the Mindset Sweatshirt Dark Surf are nice and I kind of like how size small fits on you. Love the slightly oversized look. The material does look a bit thin to me tough.

    1. Agreed... it is super soft, but it's also fairly thin material. I'll wait for something a little more substantial!

  2. I like how the Uptempo Hoodie drapes on you! It's very flattering. I agree that it would look beautiful in a plum/mauve colour! By the way, your leggings look great on you! I miss Ivivva!

    1. Good eye! Those were the joggers I bought earlier this year. I love them. I miss Ivivva too. There's still Athleta girls but their joggers/sweatpants are running very big around the ankles lately, they look strange.

  3. I like the tee and both sweatshirt colors! I used to not like super oversized items but I'm in love with more oversized sweaters rn

    1. Same here, I don't mind the oversized look and feel. I think it's cute and it's super comfy which is a plus... I'm all about being comfortable these days.

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

  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.
