New Releases Week of September 19th 2023

Well, this was somewhat of a small and disappointing drop except for the Scuba Oversized Full-Zip in Dramatic Magenta! A few items from Athleta and Vuori caught my eye and I may or may not be placing an order. Let me know if there's a fit review you would like to see. Drop me a note in the comments below. Did you order anything this week?

(I do think I will be ordering this though!)











 New From Athleta


I love Athleta sweaters, and Nightfall Purple is right up my alley!


New Arrivals From Vuori




(This is pretty cute!)

(I love this color too, Vuori order may be in my future.)

  1. Hi Leslie,
    The Scuba Oversized Full-Zip Dramatic Magenta is super pretty but I'm not a fan of cropped hoodie and it's kind of boxy. :( If this gorgeous color is released in the Scuba Oversized Funnel-Neck Full Zip, I'll definitely give it a try!

    I'm kind of interested in the Looped Terry Fleece Half Zip Hoodie Bone because of the high neck. Not sure it if will look too cropped on me though.

    1. Hi Andrea! Dramatic Magenta looks amazing. I can't wait to get it. I hope it gets released in the Funnel-Neck Full Zip for you!

      I looked at the Looped Terry Fleece Half Zip, if you get your usual size 2, it might hit your hip bone on you, not sure if that's too cropped for your tastes.

    2. Thanks, Leslie! It might be too short for my liking …

      I might drop by a LLL store this weekend and if they do have the Looped Terry Fleece Half Zip in stock, I will let you know how it fits on me.

  2. Nothing for me this week! I much prefer spring/summer colors, so I don't tend to buy quite as much in fall/winter.

    I do actually like the style of the Define Relaxed-Fit Jacket, but I really hate Luon. I wish the entire jacket was Swift.

    1. Hi LZ! Ah I am the opposite. Love fall/winter clothes.

      Have you tried on the Define Relaxed Fit Jacket? Wondering if it would just be too oversized for us petites. But I agree, I am not a fan of Luon either.

    2. No - I haven't tried it. I think because it's oversized and long, it would be too overwhelming for me.

  3. Hi Leslie. Thanks for the post. I love magenta purple as well.
    The relaxed fit define is a great idea on their part. I normally stay away from black but the gold zipper on it makes it look really sharp.
    As for Vuori have any of their pants worked for you or is petite friendly besides the performance joggers? Cindy

    1. Hi Cindy, the Miles Ankle Pant is totally petite friendly. I just wasn't a fan of the fabric, but that's personal preference. Not sure if you saw that review.

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.
