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.
Mindset Sweatshirt Dark Surf Teal Heather Size Small
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!
Mindset Sweatshirt Flora Mauve Size XS
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!

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.
ReplyDeleteAgreed... it is super soft, but it's also fairly thin material. I'll wait for something a little more substantial!
DeleteI 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!
ReplyDeleteGood 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.
DeleteI 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
ReplyDeleteSame 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.
