Fit Review! Vuori Halo Performance Hoodie 2.0 vs Aviator Nation 5 Stripe Hoodie

How is 2023 treating everyone so far? I'm doing great on my no buy but at the same time it's only 8 days in. 😆 Although, I admit the 60% off Naked Cashmere sale is very tempting. I'm considering a couple of shackets. And in case anyone is wondering I do have a bunch of reviews lined up from purchases made in December so I should be good for at least a month, if not more. I am anxiously waiting to see what Lunar New Year items we'll get from Tuesday's drop. Today's review is a comparison between Vuori's updated Halo Performance Hoodie versus Aviator Nation's 5 Stripe Hoodie.

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XS in Vuori and Aviator Nation. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon and size PXS in Athleta.

Vuori Halo Performance Hoodie 2.0 Cosmo Heather Size XS

I was interested to see how the updated version of the Performance hoodie compared to the original. I liked the original Performance Hoodie but at times I wish the sleeves were a little looser to fit over my Apple Watch more comfortably. I purchased size XS in the updated version and also wore the same size in the original version. If you would like to see the original fit review, here's the link.

The sleeves are indeed looser, and it did fit over my Apple Watch easily. That's a plus in my book. The length of the hoodie is a smidge longer but not by much. The overall fit of the hoodie is looser than the original. The fabric is thin, like the joggers, but I found the draping to be unflattering from the front. It's a little shapeless and boxy.

The fabric is still the same buttery softness that I love. The color Cosmo Heather is amazing. I have it in the Performance Jogger and they're currently on sale for $75.

Aviator Nation 5 Stripe Hoodie Vintage White Size XS

I love my Aviator Nation hoodies. I saw someone wearing a full matching set in the Vintage White at the airport and loved it on her. I decided to get the hoodie, but it turns out that this color for whatever reason, runs a tad larger than their usual XS. It wasn't terrible on, but I wanted it to be a little more fitted. The fabric is super soft and extremely comfortable on. I just didn't love the looser fit.

I ended up sending both hoodies back, which is a rare thing for me! However, between the two hoodies, Aviator Nation is still hands down my favorite hoodie so far. Hope you all have a fantastic Monday!

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

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.
