New Releases Week of March 21st 2023

In case you missed my story on Instagram, I caught the stomach bug that's been going around and wasn't able to get my usual fit review up for Monday. I'll have it up for Fit Review Friday. Check my IG story for a sneak peak! 😊 I'm very interested in the the Softstreme HR Straight Leg Cropped Pant in Chambray. I think the color would be great for spring and summer. The fabric is little bit on the heavier side and I like to size up for a roomier fit in the waist. Let me know if you got anything from today's drop! 















(I think I may need to get these!)






(The 26" inseam is giving me hope!)

  1. hi Leslie! I'm glad you're feeling better now! I really like the Swiftly Midweight 1/2 Zip LS Shirt in Chambray/Powder Blue, but will have to wait for it to go to WMTM before I purchase. CAD$148+tax is way overpriced for a Swiftly. If you end up getting the Mid Rise Elevation Slim Bootcut Walnut Heather, I'd love to know what you think!

    My Wool Flyer Mizzles have arrived and they're very comfortable and breathable. They do run a little longer than the Tree Dashers 2, but probably not enough to size down. The Tree Dashers 2 still fit me the best!

    1. Hi Karen, Yes these prices are very high. Makes me think twice about what I keep when I order from Lulu. I will be placing a Vuori order soon. There's so much I want to try!

      Yes, the Wool Flyer Mizzles fit me the same way, just a bit too long in the foot, but I still love them. Tree Dasher 2s are the best! I am waiting for another color I really love before I get one more...

  2. You and I have such similar tastes it’s scary. My thoughts exactly about the softstreme chambray crops. Do you own any other colors? And how do you find the fit? I had to get mine shortened to make them more ankle length. Thank goodness for free alterAtions Cindy

    1. Hi Cindy! I have the crops in True Navy. I tried the 4 and the 6 and went with the 6. Here's my review. I prefer full length on me.

  3. I hope your stomach feels better by now! I love the chambray cropped softstreme pants and especially that color! It would match so much for spring and summer. I wear my black ones often.

    1. Hi Janessa! Thanks, I do feel much better today. I wish I had gotten a black pair, I went with navy. I hope they release more Softstreme crops for summer.

    2. They have black in your size . On the Canadian site anyway. Have you seen the velvet dust? I missed out. The chambray is sold out in the small sizes. Cindy

    3. Ohhh it is back in stock in the black! Nice. I did see Velvet Dust but I don't know how wearable that would be. I love the color though.

  4. Easy pass for me this week. Lilac Smoke is pretty, but I don't like Scubas. I'll wait to see if it releases in something else. The Swiftly Midweight 1/2 Zip is nice - but omg the price?? I also think the top of the collar would poke and irritate my neck.

    I tried on the 28" Mini Flares last week and was surprised to really like them. They didn't make my legs look as much like horse legs as I had imagined, lol. They look pretty cropped when holding them up but once on actually fit at the perfect floor length for me.

    1. Hi LZ! Agreed, I don't know why it's $148. That's kind of crazy. True about the collar. I can see that.

      SO lucky you can wear a 28" inseam. Did you end up getting the Mini Flares?

    2. I did! I ordered them in a different color and size down, since we didn't have the exact pair I wanted in store. :)

  5. Glad to hear you're feeling better. Stomach bugs are the absolute worst!

    I'm kind of liking the Softstreme pants in the Chambray too. I already have them in Velvet Dust and I really like them! I was checking them out in Bone also, but my size is sold out already.

    I ordered the Ribbed Softstreme T-Shirt in Bone to try. I'm loving that color right now!

    And I saw your sneak peak. Can't wait to see what you think of it.

    1. Hi Lola! I'm glad I got that stomach bug out of my system. It was awful.

      I was looking at the Ribbed Softstreme T-Shirt, let me know what you think of it and if it's a TTS or Size down item. I love Bone also.

      The jacket is an interesting piece, I'll say that much!

    2. Does anyone know if Canada got the over sized scuba half zip in Lilac smoke? -CalgarySue

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. Anyway, today I have a belt bag size comparison review for you all! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms.

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. I'm already thinking about all the dim sum I'm going to cram in the 10 days I'm there! 😆  Today I have a review of the new  Everywhere Belt Bag Extended Strap  compared to the original  Everywhere Belt Bag  that is slowly being phased out. 😢  **** Update - The original Everywhere Belt Bag has been phased out completely. The website has removed the Extended Strap from the name. The updated version is now called the Everywhere Belt Bag!**** For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall.
