Fit Review Friday! Athleta Retroplush Sweatshirt, Triumph Jogger, Balance Sweatshirt, Balance Jogger

 

Happy Friday! I can't believe October is over in a couple of days. 😱 How is 2021 almost over? It boggles my mind. I only know what day of the week it is because of my fit review schedule and weekly Lululemon drops. Otherwise every day would be a blur. 

Today I have my last Athleta fit review (for now). For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XXS/PXS in Athleta. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms.

Retroplush Sweatshirt Charcoal Heather Size PXS

I'm wearing size PXS in this hoodie and it has a loose fit but still petite friendly. It does look a little bit on the bulky side probably because it is lined with fleece. There are side slits and the asymmetrical zipper adds a little bit of flare to an otherwise basic hoodie. 

The back skims over the body quite nicely. The front just looks a little bit off, I can't really put my finger on it. I think the body does flare out a little too much for my liking. Not too crazy about the bell shape. I might like it better if the color was more interesting. The sleeves are also just a tad long but I do appreciate the thumbholes. 

Next up we have the Triumph Jogger in a really nice camo print. I wasn't sure about these joggers at first, but they have really grown on me. I'm wearing size PXS. I think they look great paired with a crop top for streetwear. I'm actually wearing Lululemon's Ebb To Street Long Sleeve that I reviewed recently. These photos were all taken during the same photo session.

These joggers have a loose fit throughout the leg and tapers at the ankle. The inseam measures 26 inches (this seems to be the typical petite length). I personally think these look really great with some high top sneakers!

The waistband sits right underneath the belly button. These are very comfortable and there is a drawstring to customize the fit. I think these run just slightly large but I think this is how the style is supposed to look.  They are also medium to heavy weight joggers, since it is lined with soft fleece and I know these will be great for the colder months in Atlanta. 

Next up we have the Balance set. I'm a big fan of Athleta's Balance line and rotate my three Balance Sweatshirts quite often. The Balance Joggers are now in regular rotation as well since the temperatures have dropped and my Vuori's are being worn less. 

Balance Sweatshirt Medium Gray Heather Size XXS

I've reviewed both of these items in the past so I will not go into a lot of detail but when I saw this set released, I had to have it. I do love grays just because they're easy to mix and match (gray really does go with anything). I'm wearing size XXS in the Balance Sweatshirt even though this is offered in petite sizing. I think the XXS is very petite friendly as is. The sleeves are a little bit long, but I really don't mind it. This hoodie is so super soft and comfortable.

Next few photos are full body shots. I am just digging matching sets right now. That said I do wear the pieces by themselves. 

This is my second Balance Jogger. I'm wearing size PXS and it's perfect. I love the waistband, it's stretchy and sits right at my belly button. This is lined with plushy fleece, so they are very warm and cozy. I like wearing them out and for lounging as well. The inseam measures 26 inches.
