New Releases Week of January 17th 2023

In a rush today, but nothing for me this week, I am back on my no-buy until March. Lots of new items from Athleta and Aviator Nation as well. My wish is growing! 😅 Let me know if you picked anything up!







(This is 100% polyester, I don't get why it's $98?)






(Not new, but a bunch of colors have restocked including Sonic Pink!)

 Athleta New Arrivals



(Added this to my wish list for March 😅)



(I am eyeing this tank in a few colors for the office.)


(This color is so pretty!)

(Love this too, adding it to my wish list.)


(I would be interested in trying one of these.)

  1. hi Leslie! If you end up ordering the Elation pant, I'd love to see a fit review please! The length and tapered legs look petite-friendly, but I wonder if the front pleats are flattering.

    I didn't order anything today, but I ordered a pair of Brooklyn lined joggers during Athleta's extra 30% off sale. I checked your old review before ordering and size 0 was a perfect fit. I'm very pleased with both the fabric and fit of these joggers! Thanks again for all your fit reviews!

    1. Hi Karen! I am def going to get the Elation Pant for a review. The front looks almost like the Salutation Joggers with pleats, hopefully it's flattering!

      Ohhh I bought a pair of Brooklyn Lined Joggers too in December with the extra 30% off, but I'm sure you were able to get an even better deal! I love them. So worth the money!

    1. Hi Janessa! The no buy is hard, but we can do it together! I told myself I can keep a wish list and then if I still want the items in March I am going to allow myself to purchase them. At least the purchases will be things I really want and not impulse buys. Twilight Rose really is beautiful. Hope to see more items and shorts in that color!

    2. That's a great idea! I will do a wishlist too and hold off on buying things til March. I still have some aritzia orders coming in... hehhe. I got the Christie pants which I love and some basic clearance tops

  3. Nothing new for me this week! The tennis stuff is cute, but I'm not a serious - or smartly-dressed - player. Maybe on sale. I'm starting to get bored with the women's items, so I've been dabbling in the men's section and have really enjoyed what I've picked up so far. The Soft Knit Over Shirt is a weighty, nice quality layering shirt. I'm wearing the Commission Long Sleeve for the same purpose right now, and it's so light and comfortable. I'm thinking of trying some of the "shorter" joggers next. Will report back if I do!

    1. Hi LZ! That's so cool you're exploring the men's section. What size do you wear for their tops and how does it translate to women's sizing? I am wondering if they are petite friendly enough to try. Definitely report back on the joggers if you give them a go.

    2. I wear an XS in men’s and am usually a 2/4 in women’s. They fit just slightly oversized without looking sloppy or obviously men’s. The top-of-the-shoulder to armpit is the only place I notice a bit too much length

    3. Oh nice, I will have to see if there's anything I'd like to try from the men's section. I totally agree that the women's stuff is getting a little boring.

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 ...

Fit Review! Aviator Nation Navy Hoodie 5 Stripe

  Is it already Monday? This weekend just flew by. For the first time since early 2020, I met up with a friendly neighbor and we went out for dim sum. At the end we hugged since I hadn't seen her in forever. I told her, "You're the first person I hugged since the pandemic started that isn't my husband!" 😄  For today's post, this is a hoodie I've been dying to try for months but kept putting it off because of the price tag. Aviator Nation is not cheap. Not a whole lot makes me pause because I'm used to seeing Lululemon hoodies priced at $128-$138. Aviator Nation comes in at a whopping $189.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and I am wearing a size XS in Aviator Nation. For Lululemon tops I typically wear a size 4. 5 Stripe Hoodie  Navy Size XS The interesting thing about Aviator Nation is their hoodies are unisex sizing. The available sizes are XS-XXL. The female model is shown wearing size XS while the male model is shown wearing size large. I took a c...
