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

Did You Know There Are Two Different Ugg Companies? Review - UGG Lowmel

  So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos.  The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels. UGG Lowmel Sand   Size Kids 4 I typically wear size 5.5 and I decided to try the kids size 4 which actually fit well, if just a smidge large...

First Impressions! On Cloudmonster Void

  Happy Friday! I've been branching out into other brands for footwear. I mentioned in a previous post I just don't think my Allbirds are cutting it anymore. Allbirds are more of a casual walking shoe. Anything over 10K, my feet start to hurt. I have tried Hokas, and they seem to be decent so far, I can walk 12K steps a day and haven't had issues. However, I am loving the On Cloudmoster Void even more! For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in Allbirds which is my normal street size for sneakers and I am also wearing size 5.5 in On Cloudmonster Void. On CloudMonster Void Ivory | Wolf Size 5.5 (Currently on sale for 20% off -  $135) I'm not a huge fan of logos on my shoes. I decided on this colorway because I love the light gray and lilac combo and it does have a big On logo, but it blends in nicely with the colors. It still has a minimalistic vibe.  This shoe has a 6mm heel to toe shoe drop. This is a good height if you're a heel to toe striker which I am. This is...

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. ...
