Happy Friday! I received a fit request for the Arrival Jacket a little while ago, apologies for taking a while to get the review up. The package was stuck for a week in Illinois! There's also an amazing Athleta sale happening this weekend. I will post my picks from the sale after the review. In other news, I'm in New York at the moment, so expect to see a food post soon! 😅
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size PXS in Athleta. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon tops.
Arrival Jacket Dark Adonis Blue Size PXS
also wearing Transcend Stash Straight Leg Pant (on sale!)
(I recommend sizing up, they run small.)
I'm wearing size Petite XS and it does run a little large, the sleeves are very long on me. It's a little boxy and slightly oversized. The length hits at my hip and it's very generous in the body. I could easily layer underneath this jacket without any issues.
I am loving all the details on this jacket, especially the slight ruching along the back of the sleeves. The fabric has a slightly crinkled texture and it's also a little bit shiny. It definitely has a sheen to it. This is a lightweight jacket that's perfect for spring and summer nights. It's super soft to touch.
I also love the double layered look in the back with an adjustable bungie cord to customize the fit and look.
The color Dark Adonis blue is very vibrant. It's a combination of blue and purple, but more on the purple side. The below photo is a good example of the jacket's sheen.
The inside has a thin mesh lining. The color is really pretty, just not for me. This jacket is only available in two colors - Dark Adonis Blue and black. Between the two colors, I would probably go for black, but neither color really appeals to me. I am hoping Athleta will release more colors in this jacket because I really do love all the amazing details! The price is $149, which is a little steep but Athleta usually has decent sales and coupons and I think this jacket is worth $100-$125 range. This jacket gets a thumbs up from me, but I'm waiting for a different color.
That's it for me! Hope you all have a great weekend! Happy Memorial Day!

Thank you for the review on the Arrival Jacket. I'm glad you noted that it runs large. I think the length of the sleeves would piss me off, LOL. I do love that Dark Adonis Blue though!
ReplyDeleteCanada had their big Athleta sale last weekend, and I indulged in the Wayfarer Bomber Jacket, and the Air Out Cinch Tee. Hopefully, everything will fit!
Have a great weekend!
Hi Lola! Yeah the sleeves were pretty ridiculous. I don't mind folding them up though.
DeleteOhhhh let me know how you like everything!
