Fit Review! J.Crew Cotton Cashmere Pullover Sweatshirt & Jogger Pant

 


In case you missed my last post, I'm giving away a $200 Lululemon gift card to one lucky winner to celebrate my 5th anniversary of PetiteImpact. All entries must be in by noon, Friday the 22nd, Eastern time. I will randomly pick a name and announce the winner. Good luck to all! 

After I saw Lululemon's Ribbed High-Rise Jogger in Heathered Copper Brown, I was obsessed with trying to find a dupe of this set since I know Lululemon isn't the most petite friendly. Teaser - I do have a review of the Ribbed High-Rise Jogger coming up in Heathered Black. The Heathered Copper Brown is sold out in most sizes already. Not surprised!

Lululemon set

I actually found a very similar set on J.Crew. 😍 I like this even more because it's cotton-cashmere and they offer size XXS which I knew would likely fit. Plus it's on sale! I actually am really excited about this matching set. This is the kind of brown I can pull off. I actually prefer the crewneck pullover over the turtleneck shown in the Lululemon photo, but if you're more of a turtleneck person there is a matching Ribbed Turtleneck Cotton Cashmere in the heather caramel as well. 

J.Crew set

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and wear size XXS/PXS in J.Crew. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms.




How amazing does this set look? Plus I was able to get this set for under $130 with the code GOBIG

This outfit looks so good, I took a million pictures of it! 


I'm wearing size XXS in the Cashmere Pullover and it's super petite friendly in that effortlessly casual look. I love the draping with the front half tucked. The crewneck does not feel too tight in the neck and the sleeves are just a tad bit long but I like to push them up. The cotton-cashmere is very soft and easy to care for. It's machine wash and dry! 





The joggers are just a little bit too long on me, they measure 27 inches. The first couple of photos I showed them at the full length. The photos after show them cuffed at the bottom. I think it looks fine either way. I actually think this outfit looks great paired with the Rothy's Lace Up.



I can't recommend this set enough. Great for lounge days, work from home days, and running errands. It's also easy on the wallet. Loving this Heather Caramel shade and the texture of cotton-cashmere is heavenly. 


The waistband is very stretchy and comfortable. The waistband hits my bellybutton and there is a drawstring to customize your fit. 


That's it for me! Hope you enjoyed this review. Let's all have a wonderful week!

  1. The set looks awesome on you, Leslie, and it’s so petite friendly! I usually steer away from caramels and browns but I must say this color compliments your skin tone! A great buy indeed! You make me wanna give washable cashmere blend items a try!

    I recently bought two pairs of kids’ soft spun joggers from GAP and size XXL fits perfectly! The best part is they were on sale and I paid just CAD 16 for each pair (got it in two colors)! Great for lounging and they are really comfortable. Definitely a steal and I’m saving money for a luxurious Lulu hoodie for the holidays! Hopefully they will release a plush hoodie again, but with matt and not shiny hardware!

    1. Thanks Andrea! Brown is a tricky color for me too. This one works nicely though! Very pleased with this set.

      Ohhhh I love a good deal! I'm a sucker for comfy lounge items. The holidays are just around the corner. I am definitely interested in another plush hoodie. They are my favorite from Lulu.

  2. How easy is it to wash this material?

    1. It's really easy! I put it in the washing machine on delicate cycle - cold water. Then I throw it in the dryer on low for about 10 minutes and then I hang dry. You can leave it in the dryer but I am trying to keep it from pilling as much as possible. So far it's holding up nicely! This is my second cotton-cashmere set from J.Crew.

  3. Hi Leslie! I love this matching set! Brown seems to be a hot colour this season and this shade looks great on you. The joggers are especially flattering in the rear view and the length is perfect once you cuff it! What a great find!

    1. Thanks Karen! I am quite pleased. This shade of brown is really popular this year. I am also lusting after a golden brown bag as well!

  4. Wow I love this set!! It looks just as cute as the LLL one, if not better. It looks comfy and casual but luxurious! This makes me want to get a set like this!

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

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. It's a tiny chip that I didn't even notice until my dentist pointed it out to me during my last visit. I'm not looking forward to it at all since I will need local anesthesia.

Review! Everywhere Belt Bag Extended Strap VS Everywhere Belt Bag Original

  Happy May! Can't believe summer is right around the corner. I'm looking forward to visiting my family later this month. It's been nearly a year since I've been back to NYC.
