Fit Review Friday! Cates Tee and Everywhere Belt Bag in Tidewater Teal

Happy Friday!! I finally got a professional haircut after 1 year and 3 months. Sooooo needed it. I texted my hair stylist, "Just warning you my hair is a disaster right now, I have a quarantine cut". He laughed, and replied, “Okay! See you soon!" I probably should have prepared him with more detail than that because he was pretty shocked. He thought my hair was going to be super long, not half shaved off. 😆😂 Long story short, he was able to fix everything and I got the pixie haircut I wanted, so it all ends well! 

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


I absolutely love Tidewater Teal. It's a fun color that makes me smile every time. It's a cool shade of blue green with a hint of a gray. It reminds me of spring and summer. This is also my third Cates Tee. I got the first two last year on mark down. I did pay full price for Tidewater Teal, so you know I love this color. I'm wearing my usual size 4 and I feel this is true to size. The fit is cropped, slightly boxy and overall a very casual look. The fabric is pima cotton and feels thin, but at the same time it still feels substantial. It's the perfect summer tee. 

Also wearing Align Crops. Mine are old - Spiced Chai is very similar.


I also picked up the Everywhere Belt Bag in Tidewater Teal. This will be my third Everywhere Belt bag if I decide to keep it. Do I need a third one? The answer is no, but the color! 😅 If you're looking for an in depth review of what fits in the Everywhere Belt Bag, check out my original review here



I am not usually a fan wearing it around the waist, but even I cannot deny how cute this looks. What do you guys think? Keep or a return? The other two colors I have is Deco Pink and Black Camo Jacquard.

I guess I have always loved this color because I just noticed it matches my Apple Watch band!

Are you as obsessed with Tidewater Teal as I am?


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

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 ...

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.
