Fit Request Monday! Scuba Oversized Funnel Neck Full Zip & Ribbed Softstreme Mid Rise Wide Leg Cropped Pant 25 inches

Hope you all had a nice weekend! This is my first Lululemon order since my no-buy challenge last month. I'm splitting it into two posts. The second post I will be reviewing the Soft Jersey items and that will be up for Friday. Last month I received a fit request for the Scuba Oversized Funnel Neck Full Zip and much to my surprise, it wasn't as oversized on my petite frame as I thought it would be. 

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms.

Given how short I am, I expected this to reach my knees. 😆 So I was pleasantly surprised when I put this on and it only reached mid-thigh. The back is longer and covers my bum and then some. I really like how the jacket looks when it's unzipped versus fully zipped. It actually reminds me of the J.Crew Lodge Coat I tried on a couple of years ago but not as classy. 

The sleeves are way too long, and they cover my fingers completely when fully extended. I took a lot of photos showing how the jacket looks with my hands in the pockets and not. I think the jacket looks great (I know this isn't really a jacket or a coat, but it certainly feels that way to me.) when my hands are in the pockets, as it makes the sleeves look less humongous. 

I had to edit the photos a little bit because of lighting issues, but Storm Teal is really pretty and I'm not usually a green person. The color looks very close to these photos, but maybe a little less saturated. I wouldn't mind having a coat in this color.

If you have mild winters, this would make a nice jacket/coat since there's so much room to layer. I also like that there isn't a hood and this makes it feel more like a coat. Sometimes these hoods can get in the way, especially when I'm wearing a crossbody bag. 

The comfort level of this piece gets a 10 out of 10 for me. It's medium weight and feels very soft. It's not the most flattering piece, but I do think it can be rather practical to wear when the weather gets closer to winter temperatures. 

The price is $148, which I think it's a little high considering the inside is not lined and the Lululemon logo looks like this on the inside:

This just looks cheap, doesn't it?! 😑

I was really surprised to see the logo was just stitched on like this. I don't think I've ever seen that before on any of my other Scubas since they are all lined. So I would say the Scuba Oversized Funnel Neck Full Zip is not worth it at full price. I think I would pay up to $99 for it, but the cheap inside logo really turns me off! Am I being super picky? Let me know what your thoughts are on this.

About a year and a half ago, when I started going back to the office they told us that it would be hybrid going forward and we weren't expected to go back to the office five days a week. This led me to get rid of 50% of my work clothes. I figured I just didn't need all these pants and sweaters anymore. Well, all that's changed. They rescinded the two to three days a week and now everyone has to go in four to five days. 😢 Needless to say I'm really annoyed about the whole thing. I decided I needed to replenish my work wardrobe a little bit.

That's where the Ribbed Softstreme Mid-Rise Wide-Leg Cropped Pant 25" comes in. If I'm going back to the office regularly I might as well be super comfortable. These pants are heavier since it's ribbed and made of Softstreme. Softstreme is weighty to begin with. 

They do have a very nice drape.

I sized up in these for comfort and I think they still look very flattering. There is a seam that runs down the front and back of the pant which elongates my legs. You can feel the seam a little bit but not enough for it to bother me since the pants are quite loose in the leg.

The waistband is stretchy and comfortable with an adjustable cord. These are mid-rise and hits at my belly button. The ribbing does remind me of corduroy so for me, these will be a fall/winter pant.

Price is high for these at $138. Considering I cannot find anything I don't like about these and I plan on wearing them to the office I am going to keep it. I think they look great with Rothy's Drivers and paired with a cute cardigan. I would definitely consider getting these pants in another color but you really can't go wrong with black! Not gonna lie, these will also make me feel a little bit better about going to the office. 

That's it for me! I hope you all have a wonderful start to a brand new week. This will be my first four day work week. Wish me luck. 😩
