New Releases Week of May 24th 2023

Hi everyone! I'm blogging from Raleigh, North Carolina. I really appreciate everyone who left a comment on my last post. I haven't been able to respond to each one, but I will. Seems like the general consensus is we are all bored to a certain extent of these weekly uploads. They are repetitive and not very inspiring but it seems nothing else has been able to replace Lulu either. We are all in a rut together. 😆 Lululemon seems to have lost their way and their rising prices are a bit much to stomach during these uncertain times. I will still post fit reviews for things that interest me and I will also still take fit requests as usual. If there's something you'd like to see outside of Lululemon, do let me know and I'll try to make it happen! I am open to branching out and would like to incorporate other types of reviews as well. It will be interesting to see where the rest of 2023 takes us. I'd like to think we are all in this together. 

As for today's upload, I apologize for being so late. Apparently, accountants really like to party after hours. 😅 So far, I have a couple of items in my cart, but have not checked out yet. Maybe I will, but maybe I won't! 

(I love this color! It looks amazing.)

(I would love this in the crop length)






(This is actually a really pretty color and I think that's a gold zipper?)

  1. Like others mentioned, I'm looking forward to reading whatever content you decide to post, Leslie! I enjoy the community and reading others' comments here.

    I ordered the Nulu & Mesh Yoga Shorts since I missed out on them last year. The Track That 3" Shorts in Poolside have been in a my cart for a while, so I finally ordered those, too. I'm so happy to see the return of Poolside. It's one of my favs.

    I forgot to mention the Ribbed Softstreme Cropped Tank fits tts but has very little stretch. It's a journey to get on/off but fits nicely once it's in its assigned seat. It's similar to the Power Pivot Tank cut.

    1. Hi LZ! Thank you so much, appreciate your support!

      I am waiting for more colors in Hotty Hots. I love the look of the Ribbed Softstreme set, I don't think I can pull it off.

  2. I ordered the nulu cropped define in twilight rose! If lipgloss and twilight rose dropped separately, I might have ordered both but if I had to choose, I choose Twilight rose!

    I think the gold zipper on the green scuba looks stunning! But I'd prefer it in a cropped length.

    Also tempted by the mesh nulu yoga shorts due to its raving reviews but I'm unsure if I like the silhouette on me... Usually I go for shorter and or tighter shorts for workout

    1. Hi there! I love the Cropped Define jacket in Twilight Rose! It looks so pretty, it's hard to resist. I think you made the right choice between the two colors.

      Same, I don't think I can pull off the Mesh Nulu Yoga shorts.

  3. Nothing for me but it's good they're releasing lots of HH HR because I want a baby pink pair. Meadowsweet pink would be amazing.

    1. Hi Janessa! I would be interested in Meadowsweet HH HR or even in Twilight Rose or Dark Oxide!

    2. Ooh, I'd love a meadowsweet pair of HHs too!! The color looks so pretty! I hope it looks like that IRL. I'm also loving pistachio. I'm tempted, but it looks similar to the scream green color from last year and I already have those.

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...
