Fit Review! Athleta Retroterry Full Zip and Aviator Nation 5 Stripe Hoodie

 

I've been in the mood for more neutral colors lately and added a couple more hoodies to my closet. These two hoodies are light weight and more suited for spring and cool summer nights. 

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and wear size XS Aviator Nation and PXS in Athleta tops. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon.



I'm a big fan of Athleta's Retroterry line. I went with Storm Cloud Garment Dye for this hoodie. It's a light gray with blue undertones. I'm wearing size Petite XS and this hoodie is very casual and loose fitting. The sleeves are a little long and the cuffs are wide. If you're not into wide cuffs, I wouldn't recommend getting this hoodie. They're much wider than any other hoodie I own. 

Simi says hello!


Fabric is French Terry on the inside and soft cotton on the outside. The hood is a nice size with drawstrings. I love the thinner fabric for spring and summer. I think I'll get a lot of use out of this hoodie! I did order the matching jogger, but it's on back order. I'll post a review once I receive it. 


Next up, we have my all time favorite hoodie of all hoodies by Aviator Nation. I am in love with the Sand/Tan neutral. I don't have a lot of beige hoodies, so I was really happy to get my hands on one.



I'm wearing my usual size XS and love the fit. This is super comfy with light fleece lined on the inside. It's very light weight and great for transitional weather or cool summer nights. I know I'll be wearing this one all the time!



Also wearing Mother Denim jeans. I am still obsessed with these. For someone who hates wearing jeans, I don't mind wearing these all day. I'm wearing size 27P for a more comfortable fit. 



This is probably my tenth Aviator Nation hoodie but I always want more! Are they pricey? Yes. Do they pill? For sure. But I still love them and wear them to death. 



I think now I definitely need to get these Allbirds in Rugged Beige?! 😅



That's it for me! I hope you all have a wonderful start to a brand new week!

  1. I like the way the hood part of the aviator nation hoodie falls. It’s a nice scoop around the neck. Simi looks up and gives the best expression😊

    1. Hi AC! Simi is the princess of the family. Totally agree, the AN hoodie just has nice draping. Looks effortless and stylish.

  2. Ooo the retro Terry hoodie looks perfect on you. I find the new Aritzia Boyfriend boxy (rebranded as ARITZIA instead of TNA) to fit longer now and I wear and XS instead of my old XXS and I love the fit so much!

    The tan Aviator Nation hoodie is so pretty and unlike the other color schemes they’ve had! I think the Allbirds shoes would match the hoodie really well haha! Not encouraging you to buy… but if you’re into neutrals that shoe would match everything.

    1. Hi Janessa! Ohh I looked at the new Aritzia hoodie. Good to know they fit longer now. I might give it another try.

      Yeah... I may bite the bullet and get myself another pair of Allbirds. LOL.

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.
