I stopped by the store again to see if they had any Taupetastic items but no luck. I guess I may bite the bullet and place an order online. I have been trying to visit stores more often these days.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in tops and I like to size up to 6 for comfort in pants.
also wearing Vuori Boyfriend Cargo Jogger Size XXS
This t-shirt is made of thin lightweight mesh fabric. It is slightly see-through. I'm wearing size 4 and it's a perfect fit at the shoulders and arms, but if you want a slightly looser fit, I would size up. This top is meant for running and training. The length is perfect for petites, it hits at the low waist on me. For $58, it's not bad for Lululemon pricing. This top comes in a lot of different colors. Light vapor is an off white color which would be good for warm weather if you're training outdoors.
I wish the store had these joggers in a lighter color like Rover. It's hard to see the details on black fabric. Apologies for terrible fitting room pics on these pants. The length is 23 inches long and I found them to be slightly too short for my liking. They hit at my ankles. I'm wearing size 6 and the waistband is flat and hits at my belly button.
I like the zipper detail at the ankles, which allows for breathability and air movement. This is semi-fitted or classic fit as Lululemon states on the website. I like the side pockets, it's hard to see but it looks very seamless. Price is $118 and I think that's about average for Lululemon pricing. It's hard to find a pair of bottoms under $100 these days!
Last weekend I tried the Dance Studio Cropped Pants, and prefer those over the Adapted State Joggers. That's it for me! I hope you all have fantastic start to a brand new week!

Ultralight Waist Length T-Shirt
The shirt fabric looks oh so comfortable but still too cropped for my tastes, thanks for reviewing!
ReplyDeleteHI AC! I am just happy it's not showing my belly button. =D
DeleteThanks for the fit reviews, Leslie!
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried on the Ultralight line yet, but I do love how lightweight they feel. I'm not a fan of the Adapted State Jogger. The full length version is too long, and the crops are too short on me. I also don't like how scratchy the material feels - especially when I bend my knees to walk. I can't image trying to run in them...
Hi LZ! I am really surprised at how much I like the Ultralight top. The more I think about it the more I like it more than Swiftly tops. May have to see if they end up on WMTM and grab a few colors.
DeleteDidn't notice the scratchy material of the Adapted State Jogger but agree it's too short, I would have preferred a 25" length.
Hi Leslie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for another great post! I saw one and only one (probably a returned item) Scuba Hoodie in Taupetastic at a store over the weekend and must say the color is even prettier than I thought! I can see why it was sold out in most sizes so fast!
I’m not a fan of cropped tops and wonder how long this trend is going to last lol.
I love my two Adapted State Joggers in fleece. My regular size 2 was a tad long and luckily sizing down worked! I’ve seen the non-fleece version in person and the waist seems to fit small. Also not loving the material.
My Athleta order arrived and sadly the Brooklyn Mid-rise Ankle Pant doesn’t work for me. 00 Petite is too short and looks silly with the straight hem. Might have worked with a tapered hem. Size 00 Regular, on the other hand, is a tad long. Also I’m not loving the side panels so both pairs are going back.

Hi Andrea! Taupetastic is soooo pretty in person. I might just have to place an order online. Maybe after today's drop!
DeleteAgree, this crop top trend is lasting way too long.
Bummer neither lengths fit! At least you tried the Brooklyn Pants. I don't mind the stripe on them. I like them in black the best. I have more Athleta reviews coming up. I've definitely been gravitating towards their clothes more this year.
The shirt is a cute fit but I find LLL light colored tees and tanks to be too sheer! Ok for gym but for daily not so much

Hi Janessa! Totally fair. I think they would also be fine when it's 100 degrees out!
