Fit Review Friday! Cates Tee, Classic-Fit Cotton-Blend T-Shirt, Perfectly Oversized Cropped Crew Softstreme Plus Allbirds Biggest Sale Starts Today!

Happy Friday!! My Blissfeel Running Shoes shipped. I hope to have my initial review up next week and then I'll have a more in-depth review after I've worn them for a bit and I'll even run in them for science. 😂 I'm not a runner, but I did train for a 10K back in the day, it's been awhile since I did a run. It'll be interesting to see if I can still run 2 miles. 

Today I have for you a comparison between Cates Tee and Classic-Fit Cotton-Blend T-Shirt. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops but not today! 

Cates Tee Heathered Core Light Gray Size 6

also wearing Align Short 6" Size 4

I've reviewed the Cates Tee in the past in size 4, but for the Heathered Core Light Gray I decided to size up for a slightly longer length. Sizing up also means it's slightly wider as well. I actually do not mind the looser fit. These days I'm all about comfort. 

I'll link to my two previous reviews of the Cates Tee in the size 4. Looking at the photos, there really isn't that much difference between the size 4 and the size 6. Review 1 | Review 2.

Next up we have the Perfectly Oversized Cropped Crew Softstreme White Opal. I've reviewed this pullover a few times before and it's one of my favorites. I tried really hard not to purchase another one, but White Opal is really pretty in person and couldn't pass it up. I'm a bit of a klutz especially when I'm eating, so I don't think I'll be able to keep this clean, but I still love it. It just looks so good with everything and anything.

Perfectly Oversized Cropped Crew Softstreme White Opal Size 0

also wearing Vuori Performance Jogger Shale Heather Size XS

I'm wearing my usual size 0 in this top. It's not too cropped on me, and honestly the size 2 would be fine in the body, except the sleeves are just a touch too long. As you can see, the sleeves are too long, but still passable in size 0.

Last but not least, we have the Classic-Fit Cotton-Blend T-Shirt in Silver Blue. I also opted to get this in size 6 as well. The fit is almost the same as the Cates Tee in the body. The Classic-Fit Cotton-Blend T-Shirt has a slightly longer length which I prefer. The fabric is also thicker and not quite as soft as the Cates Tee. That said, between the two, I prefer the Classic-Fit Cotton-Blend T-Shirt. Plus the Silver Blue is so pretty. I think it makes a great spring/summer tee. 

Classic-Fit Cotton-Blend T-Shirt Silver Blue Size 6

The back of the t-shirt has a seam going down the middle and then an arch. Not sure what the purpose of the seam is, but it does make it look a little bit different from the Cates Tee. The price is $58 which is $10 more than the Cates Tee. Would I purchase another one? I just might if Lulu were to release it in Mineral Blue!

Before I sign off, there's a lot of sales happening this weekend. Do check out the Athleta Members Event Sale going on right now. They are offering 20% off your entire purchase. I already placed my order and will have some reviews coming up. In the meantime, I highly recommend the Keys Relaxed Cropped Tee. I purchased it in size XS and really like the material and fit. Another new favorite is the Elation V-Neck Crop tank and I fit size small. For reference I wear size 6 in Align Tanks. 

ALSO happening this weekend-

Edit- Allbirds messed up. Just received this email from them. 

“It looks like the system we use to send emails delayed your email by 3 days, the sale was last weekend. So sorry about that, I'm looking into why this occurred.”

Allbirds Biggest Sale Starts Today at 4pm PST / 7pm EST

Allbirds website will feature 25% off select products above $70 and 15% off select products below $70. On top of this amazing discount you can receive a free pair of socks using my link.

With Lululemon's BlissFeel Running Shoe launch, I'm very curious to see how they compare to Allbirds Tree Dashers which are my favorite shoe. Lululemon definitely has the name going for them, but competition will be intense in the footwear world. Plus their pricing is definitely higher than Allbirds. The big question is, are they worth it? In the meantime if Lulu's pricing is out of reach for you, Allbirds is dropping their biggest sale. 

The sale starts this Friday at 7pm EST and it's for the weekend only. I would get your shopping carts ready to go! I'm eying a new pair of Tree Breezers and possibly the R&R Hoodie. My husband also really likes the Men's Sea Tee. They are really soft. 

That's it for me, have a fantastic weekend! Happy Shopping. 😃
